    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!

      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.”

    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.
