There once was a poor humble tire
Who longed to go bigger and higher
until one day he spied
this gigantic ride
[can you finish my limerick for me?]
These photographs are from the New York World’s Fair 1964-65. The US Royal Tires ride looks amazing, doesn’t it?
You may not be able to read the sign at the bottom of the second photograph, but it says “Carcupine.” I googled that word, and after wanting to autocorrect to porcupine, I got this AI response:
A “carcupine” is a colloquial term for a car covered in ice spikes, or a humorous nickname for a car improperly loaded with lumber that protrudes from the vehicle like quills. It is also used as a comedic metaphor for a car that looks like it needs a shave.“
Go figure.
