Tman I love your picture thats great i could imagine all the wife's fliping out over some thing like that!!!!! if you need a display/props to show off your car maybe theres nothing to really show off!!!
When my daughter was little, we had her lean up against the tire of my buddys T-bucket. Then tell her when to turn around and scare the old ladies who thought cry babies were 'adorable'.
See .. I told you this kind of thread can get crazy after a while! Our "Where's Dolly?" thread lasted on and off for almost TWO!! years! As far as hobbits go ... I think they charge more.
heck i know the ultimate crybaby to lean next to your car probally a little expecive to hire for acar show though but would be kinda cool though
i have a wierd sence of humour and i am very tierd so beware, if i do not go to sleep soon i bet i will have written 20 more replys to this thread... you just need to give the hobbits food and smoke... and beer. dwarves on the otherhand demand to work in caves and gold or mithril.. much more expencive, in the longrun you'll see that hobbits are much more cost efficient...
i've seen simular creatures in the phantasm movies.. they are scary and sound wierd and have yellow blood beware of the tallman
hey btw, that tiny cry baby doll on the top there, man i could swear it looks like he's taking a leak on that car... they are not crying they are pissing on peoples cars.. and they get away with it,
Anybody have a pic of one of those horrible Halloween costumes-you know the priest/Boy Scout Leader/Michael Jackson with the crybaby doll attached to the crotch? By the way, the most has had me laughin' my f@ckin' ass off, which was great after a messed up day at work... _________________________________________________________________ and before anyone gets there panties in a wad, I realize there are Michael Jackson fans out there and it's horrible-I'm definitely not trying to make light of that
psycho; go to bed - this will probably be still going on tommorow! So .. maybe we need to do a more extensive cost study of Hobbits vs. Dwarves - to take the place of Crybabies. I mean smokes and beer can get damned expensive. At least they are up here. Are we having fun yet?
at the first Hunnert Car Pileup, Irritant set one afire! I have a headless crybaby, made out of my nephew's old clothes, with a vinyl puddle of blood, that I used to park my car on at cruise nights & carshows
Just think of the fun by day three of York--hundreds of drunken midgets, everywhere... "What the #$*&%^$@ are you staring at, you fat **&^$!!!" ---"CLANG"---(beer can bounces off of terrified fat broad in poodle skirt)--midget vomits, staggers away cursing in Olde Norse, buries his axe in a fiberglass Boydster... York calls out National Guard to deal with rampaging dwarves...but the Guard is all in Iraq...WOW! I'd pay money to watch this!!
We stole that from the guy displaying his graphic laden tweedrod in front of my Touring at this years car show. He didnt get the joke.
Personally the first time I saw one it was Ok then they seem to have become more tackey with time. I'm gonna get me a peein dawg and put it next to someone's high zoot car.
And just how did you come up with a pic of one under YOUR tire 9 minutes after Fidget posted this thread?
Ok Tman. You're off the hook. I just read your post #46 that explained how you got the doll. You had me worried there for a minute.
They are soooooooo 90's. Stupid idea then, worse now. I think it is funny to watch some kid trip over them right into the fools car that has it hanging out there. Needs to come to an end like Cabbage Patch dolls and "baby on board" things, unless it is an actual baby duct taped to a board. Only kidding, geez (use nails).
Anybody know where I can hire a homeless midget? They gotta work pretty cheap. I/m sure they would under cut a dwarf or a hobbit and when you leave the show ya don't have to haul them "back home"!
I'm guilty of non-car related props at least once. Called my little green Rambler "the Dragon" (it was dark metallic green w/silver roof). Saw a stuffed dragon about 18" tall in a store shopping with the kid. Had to buy it! Made a wire "clamp" and fastened to the dragon's feet so it would "stand" on the driver's bucket. Looked like it was perched on the seat above my right shoulder. Okay, it seemed cool at the time...
And it goes on.... Day five--the dwarves and allied miget wikings and leprechauns, fueled by Pennsylvania's endless supply of good German beer and pretzels, are now roaming far beyond the show....at the show, the few surviving streetrodders huddle behind a pathetic barricade of lawnchairs and drive-in trays, endlessly pushing "911" on their cellphones--no one answers. After days of rape and pillage by the dwarves and airstrikes by the Air National Guard, nothing to speak of remains of York, and the dwarves are fanning out beyond the suburbs. They are finally stopped by a shoulder-to-shoulder cordon of Amish pig farmers, who, in an unexpected role as innovators, introduce pitchforks to the old game of dwarf tossing... Two days later, an emergency session of the legislature makes owning a modified auto or being more than 14" shorter than average an offense punishable by summary roadside execution...suddenly rodding is fun again!!
One like this, sucking the chrome off a Buick bumper bullet, might just get them banned from the "family" car shows. Make them and make them obscene as hell and maybe they will get banned from shows, like VW's and Mini-trucks! What? You guys NEVER did anything that a decade or two later you looked at photo evidence and said, Gawd, why didn't someone stop me? "I'm way too cool to to not diss bumper dolls but how do ya like my Tshirt that say's "Im a computer geek"?" I kicked one across a parking lot once right in front of the owner, and then offered to help bury it. (was a friend's car and doll.) The next week he had a two foot tall skeleton leaning up against his chopped, red metalflake 49 Merc! He took it for what it is, a big, way too old and passed it's time joke! Are we having FUN yet? I think they were originally hand-made by spouses and a lot of guys were too pussy-whipped to tell their spouses they didn't want the stupid thing there on the bumper, and are still afraid to stop them now for the same reason. But aren't they about the same level of stupid as fuzzy dice? (Store-bought fuzzy dice that is..) What goes around comes around... On the news last night hey were showing footage of the '65 Watts riot and wife noticed almost all the guys wearing their pants at half mast with their underwear showing,,, just like what is the hot new fashion thing to do now. Sad, but I think those damn dolls are going to be around for a while...
