B. Jones: Misto's Father?

[mwroach]

(forgive me for my rude use of coloquilisms to describe Bustopher's weight. I blame television; Family Guy to be exact. Shame on Seth MacFarlane for doing this to me. I was such a nice girl too......)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I noticed (a lot of things, but we'll just focus on this one for now) that when Bustopher Jones comes around, Mistoffelees is quite thrilled.

It's not just your plain everyday "hey, look! fat ass is here!" greeting. He really seems to enjoy ol' Bustopher's company and even tries to imitate him (offscreen, but you can see his foot and tail if you pay attention during the part when Jennyanydots sings "So much in this way passes Bustopher's day...").

They also look VERY similar. So my question is this: Is lardo Misto's dad? His unlce maybe? They just look so much alike and Misto really seems to like him, so yeah...

In my personal opinion, the fatso is Mistoffelees' father. It's cute to watch him follow big-boy around the stage and mimick him. ;D What do you think?

I had wondered that too. Misto definitely seems more thrilled to see him than everybody else, almost idolicly. In reading around the internet, I've heard both the father and uncle stories, so I'm not sure which might be correct. I suppose he could just look up to him a real lot (maybe because he's so famous? I could see Misto wanting to become a famous cat some day.), but I definitely think there is more to it than that. If you notice (which I'm sure you have), at one point he slides across the stage and grabs ol' Bustopher's tail, as if to get his attention. I don't think he'd do that if he was just a huge fan!

I always get this sort of 'ignored son' vibe, like Bustopher is too busy and doesn't spend enough time with Quaxo/Misto/Whatever, and so he goes to extreme lengths to get his fathers' attention. (lol, sound like a story, not a theory)

I could totally see that XD. Bustopher seems to have a pretty one track mind.

Hmmm...let's see here..I think big butt is probably his father.. but I dunno

I always just thought that B.J. didn't have any relations in the junkyard, not even Misto. To me, Misto just seems to be either a big fan or making fun of him...or a bit of both. Just my opinion. You can ignore it if you like, lol.
