Just now realized I wonder if Leland's last name has subconsciously been influencing my opinion of him. I mean, most the Cars characters have last names that are puns in some capacity or some sort of trait(I mean we literally have Finn. McMissile. Over here.) But Leland is just. Leland Turbo. Finn's last name is important to his caricature(er- his weaponry at least), Rod's last name is Redline, which is related to the type of car he is but also I think a bit of his personality as well, I wonder what Leland's is about.

Though, alternatively, this also simultaneously makes me even more curious about Grem and Acer, cause I understand they are technically villain thugs who's most of their role is sort of reduced to "reoccurring bad-guys so kids can keep up with knowing who we say you should root against because it's the same guys", veryyy few of the character's don't have full names. And some have full names that just aren't ever used in the movies but they exist. I mean, *every single* racer in every movie has a full nams, and all the ones from the first Cars movie(and a couple future ones) have backgrounds as well. And I mean every little background racer that you see on the track for five seconds. They got a full name. So it's interesting that Grem and Acer are just lackies that don't have one. I could maybe drag Professor Z into this but for some reason it feels more understandable to have a revealed last name and not a first name, and he's.. Zündapp. Then again. Grem and Acer are wanted in about every continent, so it probably isn't too far fetched if these are just nicknames that they sort of built up into aliases.

I may or may not have done another thing of the tags were supposed to be two sentences but now they've turned into two paragraphs again.

#I mean some of them are just puns and don't mean anything.#I'm pretty sure Axlerod's is a reference to a skit that his comedian voice actor did.#Which is why I didn't mention him.#“Kane!! Grem and Acer are named after their car mode-” SHHHHH...#Cars 2 pinheads that speak for one line and show up for three scenes for ten seconds total have full names.#We got Vladimir Trunkov and Tubbs Pacer and J. Kirby Gremlin and Victor Hugo and stuff.#AND I KNOW THOSE ARE ALSO LAST NAMES OF THEIR CAR MODELS.#but they have *first names* as well. Or first name aliases. Or whatever. I'm sure they're wanted and on the run as well. probably.#Well. They seem to have a bit more power so maybe not.#Sorry I can't be convinced that Grem and Acer aren't just two dumb and dumber city boys who got delt bad cards.#Grem and Acer.........#smiley face emoji...#I like Grem and Acer. I should talk about them more.#More than I do already. Cause I think I give them a good bit of attention at least.#Enough that if you've been here for a bit their names probably ring a bell of some sort.#Maybe I should. Finally finish watching that one Jerma stream. Which is a three-part series stream.#And I watched the first two parts souly for the third part because it would give me good Grem and Acer ideas.#And then I proceeded to watch it too close to my bedtime that I constantly fell asleep to it(this began to become intentional sleepaid)-#-thar I never finished it. I might just. rewatched the third stream from the start cause it's been a while.#Gosh I kinda wanna talk about them right now. I could use some of their stupid behavior. I say with love.#Kane slowly steps closer to the “ask game” item in the search bar. wg.whoops.#The question is do I find an ask game to fill out or do I just. reblog an ask game and be like “Hey I'm only gonna answer this for-#-Grem and Acer so just send in questions you want me to answer for them.#hmmm...#oh oh I habe that. one for Leland to post as well. which is also a funny story. I'll save that for later.#If i decide to do an ask game for Grem and Acer I will post the one I filled out for Leland later just so-#-I'm not givin yalls eyes a work out. not that anyone has to read either of course. if that needs to be stated.#I mean there wont be any hard feelings or anytging.#But if I don't do the thing for Grem and Acer then I'll just post the one for Leland most likely later tonight.#I've been having a bit of fun with Leland as well as of late.
