That's so obscure and crazy and could never happen in real life. Like agin a city called Darmstadt or something.

Or Bielefeld . . . Oh, wait.

The cars universe is in general goddamn weird

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (4 children)

So many questions, like where do baby cars come from? Do cars die of old age or just general engine failure? How do cars have the dexterity to make the structures we see, is this a post apocalypse and they are living in human ruins?

is this a post apocalypse and they are living in human ruins?

This is patially explained by the Pixar Theory

For Inside Out, The Good Dinosaur, and Finding Dory, the story continues in Parts 2,3, and 4

Why man why, I'm supposed to be working and you link something interesting that is a total of 5 parts :/

There are other places that try to explain this theory, I first learned it through a YT video (idk which)

Does the engine give personality or is that from something else? If they swapped engines around is it a brain transplant or a heart transplant?

What about the ship of thesius problem in this universe?

Do cars die of old age or just general engine failure?

Wouldn't that be the same thing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Technically yes, guess a better question would be do the cars even die at all? Or can they get "restored" and be like a zombie or resurrected, almost immortal if they keep getting fresh parts.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

It depends on what you can replace before it becomes a different car. And with a different car I mean that it has a different persons consciousness.

Baby cars come from the Automotive Industry. And all the machines in the factories have tongues like Lightning McQueen. I don't think they have a special hug for gene-exchange.

Cars die when enough of their parts fail they can no longer run. I can't speak for the brain and if there's a vitals power train or a battery to keep it alive outside the motor train. And the tongue doesn't make much sense.

It could be post-anthropic apocalypse. More likely it's a robust computer system simulating a universe according to the specifications of a five-year-old racecar enthusiast. It's irrelevant if the toddler is still five or even alive. It may be still running in the background of its more relevant processes (e.g. running a household or an automotive factory, or even commanding armies of terminator robots to hunt and annihilate the last remnants of humanity.)

In case you wanted some cosmic horror with your Pixar. Try not to think about the Scream Extractor.

If you're wondering how they eat and breathe, and other science facts (la la la)
Just repeat to yourself "it's just a film, I should really just relax."

Hahaha what a ridiculous name for a city. Bet their football team would be alright tho

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Surely no city or village will be named after bellend hahaha

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Does anyone know how to get from Penistone to Shitterton?

Kidney Springs more sproings to mind.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Liver filters out a lot more than kidneys. Perhaps not by weight if you include the water that comes with urea et. al., but the liver deserves the respect.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I mean, there is also Darmstadt (Intestine Town) in Germany and many more of those city names

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Radiator cools the car, so it would be more like Skin City

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

There's a town called Skinflats in central Scotland!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There are plenty of Heart Lakes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

There's at least one Kidney Lake

Liverpool is named after a liver bird though (LIE-ver), not the organ.

Curious about what a liver bird looks like? There's one on the Liverpool FC crest.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well there was until somecunt nicked it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Why does the Mersey run through Liverpool?

So it doesn't get mugged.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Very goose looking.

I thought the springs referred to the suspension springs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well, normally Springs in a name means water spring, but I'm assuming they chose to use a Springs name because of your reason, so basically it probably means both.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Togetherb it's hydraulic suspension
