“Go in on” meaning they pool their money to buy a van (to migrate, I assume).
Could the fact that geese fly in a ‘V’ also have something to do with it?
Being in the rental car business, my mind went to a one-way car rental as they probably won’t need the vehicle once they get down south. At least not for a few months.
@OLDCOMMANDER911, notice the pennants? I associate that with a car lot.
It’s “go south for the winter” season. I think that’s the underlying premise.
Something to do with:
Why do geese fly south for the winter?
Because it’s too far to walk!
I don’t envy the guy who has to clean off the seat covers when they turn it in. Geese are foul fowl.
“Have you ever sold a car to a goose before?” “Not just one goose, no, but this thing where a whole flock buys a van is pretty common.”
So, just sort of coming in on the middle of a kind of absurdist conversation.
They’re carpooling,
Shrug — they’re buying, not renting. Rental places don’t have those chains of flags; that’s something that car lots put up during sales.
In comic strips, anyway.
Geese normally take on low paying jobs. So it makes sense that they would have to pool their money to buy a van. Not really but this is F Minus after all.
They usually go in a V but today they are going in a VW.
Drivers sharing the road with them won’t appreciate the noise…all that incessant honking.
You notice they are Canada geese. Therefore, they are likely illegal immigrants as Canada is the Mexico of the North. Like Mexicans, these illegal immigrants have come to steal the finest low-paying jobs America has to offer. Unlike Mexicans, who will buy a pickup truck and have everyone ride in the back, the Canadians prefer to buy the minivan. Presumably riding in an open truck bed ruffles their feathers. So they use this vehicle to travel to their stolen jobs and to sell their drugs and commit the other crimes that immigrants do. Sadly, a wall is unlikely to stop them.
The wall would have to be really really tall, but I think it could help.
@Mark M : They’re very good diggers. Trust me. I’m from Canada.

One of the funniest children’s books I have seen in the past few years is called “Mother Bruce” (Mother Goose, with the goose crossed out and Bruce written in). It is a book about an extremely grumpy bear who wants to be alone and ends up with a bunch of baby geese in his house. They want him to do things with them (and they call him mama). Come the winter he wants to go to the sleep and hibernate, but the geese won’t fly south and (spoiler alert) he ends up buying the geese and himself plane tickets south where he ends up with them on beach.
There have been several sequels – also funny, but not as good -including one called “Santa Bruce”.
