This was the one I was drawn to as well... The irreverent goat hauling an idol of Baphomet stuck dead center in the middle of all these other crazy motherfuckers, feeling like he's the most normal one of the bunch.
"But, if I'm the most normal... I'm scared to death of society."
I was always banana car as a kid reading these books. Decades later and now that I’m older and wiser and have kids of my own I’ll have the hotdog car please
Yup, as much as I vibe with the doughnut, getting to the roof trunk is a nightmare in a single story building, and every turn risks a surprise roadtrip to a nearby window. It's much harder to upset the pickle, and it it can run on vinegar!
I'd like to say I'm the pig in the pickle car, but I'm actually the owl (which is already capable of flight) on the flying broom who for some reason is also riding a kick scooter.
I love the spaced out look on his face. It's a look that says "I'm purposefully, blissfully unaware of reality, and if you pop this carefully crafted bubble you will suffer the wrath of the elder gods."
What could be better than scooter with flying broom?
Edit: Ok, I see the apple could possibly also fly with the rotating leaf and is covered in case of rain. So team apple.
Because it's more practical as a vehicle. It's more aerodynamic, probably more reliable since there will probably be parts available, and you won't get weird looks from other cars on the road.
Needless to say I was not a very imaginative kid. Guess that's what happens when you're raised by a down-to-earth, jerk of a father. I wasn't even allowed to believe in Santa.
I think it's a whole lot easier to find some cheese or hot dog than parts for some weird metallic car, and if you don't care about aerodynamics it can't get you.
I'd love to be the "very Scarry" but I'm afraid I'm driving a rhino, even though i despise clowns. We cherisho the old Richard Scarry books my wife brought with. You wanna see some other cute/interesting stuff? Search for "Rien Poortvliet gnomes" - another treasure from my wife's library.
Reporter, please show us in the Lemmy Code of Conduct where being gay is a reportable offense. And anyway, the gays don’t have a monopoly on having things driven up their asses.

Baphomet flipping you the bird, even.

Pretty sure that's the two finger salute, "As above, so below." Which is kind of what makes it Baphomet, not just a goat man.

Well i was gonna answer 'cheese car', but you make a persuasive case.
Can i have the cheese car with Baphomet strapped to the roof?
