Was. Sadly, he left us with all of the Busy Town books he had to write and illustrate in 1994. But he left a wonderful legacy.

A pig driving a hot dog is kinda gruesome if you think about it.

Oh, that's fine, because there aren't any cow people in Richard Scarry's works.

Oh. Drinking milk has gotta be awkward, too!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The cows drink pig milk. 😉

What are your thoughts on an Ouroboros but the front half is a pig and the back half is a hotdog?

"Hotdog car isn't science fiction, it's science fact."

~Oscar Meyer, probably

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (1 children)

To beef frank, hotdog car isn’t science fiction, it’s science fact.”

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Thank you for putting the correct quote.

Richard Scarry is a GOAT of children's fantasy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago

Quite literally, sometimes!

Isn't the concept of a pig driving a hot dog kinda low key horrifying?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

In the original Disney Three Little Pigs cartoon, the third pig has paintings of sausages and ham on his wall with labels under them like "uncle" and "grandmother."

No worse than my Honda Spinal AcCord

I mean we technically do have the hot dog car in real life, so that's neat

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

And Teslas are kinda like the Apple version of a car. But they kill people.

I did not expect to see Lowly the worm on Lemmy today. Nice.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Lowly's brown and that guy's green. What, you're saying all worms look alike??

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Oh shit. Sorry for my inadvertent wormism. I haven’t seen the guy in like 40 years!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

All my homies love lowly the worm 🥰

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago

Wow that's a blast from the past.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This... is not how I imagined the Apple car to look like...

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago

The lawsuit is still pending.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (2 children)

BEHOLD! THE FUTURE IS NOW!!

hotdog car.

Pickle car

Ok I'm giving up on trying to find an apple car. The search results are flooded with either stuff about the company Apple making their own car, or how to integrate their phones and apps with your own car.

This joke ain't funny enough to keep going. Sorry.

Cars with electric motors can be any shape. I am appalled that there is not a pattywagon for sale

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

for the record, cars with combustion engines can also be any shape

I wanted Lowly's apple car so badly when I was a kid.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I have nipples, Greg... Can you make me into a car?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You can drive anything with nipples.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

I mean I guess, but I find it easier to drive with my hands.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (3 children)

what's the hotdog car made of

Hope it’s 100% beef for the driver’s sake

If Richard Scary released these today, would it be called "Bussy Town?" 🤔
