No, not at all. My Pyrates find Timmy incredibly useful: Cabin Boy (we won't
pursue this any further), bait when trolling for sharks, someone to hang from
the highest yardarm, or as an induced volunteer for plank walking. His head
makes a wonderful decoration on a boarding pike or Cap'n Redbeard's cutlass.
Dangled on a chain from the front of a ship, he can be used to scrape those
pesky barnacles off the bottom. He pickles nicely in a cask of rum.
The Islanders find him mighty tasty when properly bar-b-qued (As I told my
8-year old boy; One man's meat is another man's poi, son). They haven't quite
figured out how to shrink his head, but it's nice to have such an endless
supply to experiment with.
Knights value his head as trebuchet ammunition - strews death AND terror!
Forestmen use him as a live target.
Adventurers practice the trigger effect with Timmy: "Looks like a nasty trap up
ahead, better send someone expendable."
Aliens often re-animate the severed Timmy heads and playfully attach it to
something amusing.
Indians practice conservation by burying him in an anthill for recycling.
Annoying? Timmy? He's so useful! ;-)
