One does not have to feed and water a flying car when not in use.
That will not help you with the magic carrots/beans.
Bolding mine. Well then, how about a flying elephant? He has a trunk.
ISIS beware! :evil smiley:
Well, the example used for the car was Gay Deceiver, so if the car’s AI is anything like her at all, I will take the car and the issue of not rescuing me in mid-plummet-from-a-great-height or while hanging from a cliff won’t be any more of a problem than it would be for the flying horse. Plus a magical room with bidet in the land of Oz in the back of the car! (you were referencing the post-Oz Gay Deceiver right?)
So a flying carpet isn’t one of the options? Darn.
Car. I can’t drive, but it’s probably the most comfortable ride.
Of course not. I have no truck with book!Oz. Guys like me leave that place in pieces.
well bummer, guess I’d have to go with the cool lightsaber and flying horse then. Gay Deceiver before the trip to Oz was just a fancy machine, nothing more.
I just meant that there’s no Oz portal, not that the AI isn’t alive the way GD was. But as you’ll recall from, I think, THE CAT WHO WALKS THROUGH WALLS, sentient!Gay doesn’t have much use for fleshies. She loves Zeb and Deety, likes Hilda, and tolerates Jake, and would happily murder Lazarus if the Carter/Burroughs would give her pemission; everybody else can go to hell as far as she’s concerned, because she doesn’t have any other feelings.
They are not “lost.” They are simply temporarily located in another time-space continuum that I haven’t gotten back to yet. There’s a difference.
So, when does my new horsey arrive? 
Your equiraptor was being kept IN THE PADDOCK YOU WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR KEEPING LOCKED, and has escaped. Anyone he eats is on your head.
Car. I love a hot car and don’t want a horse. I don’t even have any cats or dogs because I can’t abide the mess and chaos of a pet, why would I want a smelly horse?
A fine sleek car, though, maybe styled to look like a Veyron or some such…I’m there.
Well, that kinda seals the deal for the car, doesn’t it?
Your OP didn’t say the horse could save me if I fell off, so I was assuming that, at best, there were no guarantees that he could do so. But if he will let me fall, it’s, um, game over.
Your deceitful quoting has not gone unnoticed, Elf-filth!

A Michelle Jenneke model throttlebot will arrive shortly to … take your apology.
The car for me, I don’t need Mr. Ed telling me to get off my computer to take him for a walk.
I’m missing the ‘deceitful’ part. I am quoting you accurately, with nothing in the ellipsis that changes the meaning.
Is this a whoosh?
:: rereads quoted typo :
Okay. You’re right. But it’s an obvious typo, asvtge Shadowfax allusion makes clear.
I have called off the throttlebot via candygram and sincerely hope the message arrives in time to save you from the scheduled thrashing.
You’re still an elf.
well, to be fair, I was thinking more of some of the capabilities, such as the “I tell you three times” programming, the ability to venture into the vacuum of space and the bidet to name a few(I remember it as a bathroom annex in Oz but without access to The Land of Oz ie no doors or reachable/breakable/openable windows). It wouldn’t have to be Gay herself in there doing the driving, I’m sure there are other AI personalities somewhere more compatible with my own personality. (no, I will NOT subject the dear girl to reprogramming just to make her like me, I like her just as she is)
:: zaps the long-captive Gay Deceiver with an anti-proton current just to hear her scream :
:: lights cigar and puffs away happily while GD whimpers in agony for Zeb & Deety ::
I have not turned good.
I picked horse, although I’d really rather have a hippogriff – is that an option?
