Now hold on a second, Timmy is an essential part of the Lego universe.  Every
world needs an innumerable horde of indistinguishably hideous creatures of
evil against which the forces of good can struggle.  Tolkien had had the orcs,
Star Trek has the Borg, the United States has lawyers, and the Lego world has
Timmy.

     Youre giving Timmy way too much credit here.  I'm trying to rack my brain
for some analogy for the existense of Timmy in LEGO to another situation real
or fictional.  I CAN'T FIND ONE!!  He is just that useless and horrible.
     I've thought about making a Timmy cannon to launch them to unspeakable
doom or even towards a field of other Timmy's (a fate I wouldn't even wish on
a Timmy fig myself).

The problem is that real and fictional situations don't really compare to the
Lego situation.  Because the Lego world is so much better than any real or
fictional world, it stands to reason that the forces of evil would necessarily
have to be that much worse.

Well you know, the only humane thing to do is to mail all the Timmies to me,
so that I can put them in my special Timmy habitat.  You might also want to
mail me any Jar-Jars that are causing trouble, or in fact any type of Lego
product with which you are experiencing difficulty.  This is a service I'm
happy to provide, free of charge, in order to do my part to help the community!
