I’m assuming a cucumber! Plant was bought, not sown.

Methinks you have a lot of white aphids all over it and I'm not sure if it's cuke or gourd.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Don't think they're aphids, just the "prickly bits" catching the light. Oddly shaped cucumbers aren't unusual, I think a lot depends on pollination. Are all the cucumbers on this plant for that shape, or just that one?
We come from the earth, we return to the earth, and in between we garden.
