Yup, Pinocchio was such a little jerk, but it was surprisingly funny. Like Dennis the Menace meets Problem Child. 

I mostly enjoy scifi, and Pinocchio is referenced a lot as it is an example of man creating intelligent life. The metaphors hold up. Pinocchio is kind of like a robot running amok because he lacks social skills. Really though, it is just kind of a story about how to be a good little boy, and consequences of being bad.
