Friday Five: A Looney Variation

I'm not a Friday 5 kind of guy, but in honor of our recent viewing of the Looney Tunes movie described below, I offer my own variation of this exercise:

1. Jessica Rabbit or Betty Boop?
   
   I'm a pushover for brunettes, so despite Jessica's buxom imagery of rabbiticious pulchritude, I've got to go with Ms. Boop.


2. Goofy or Bullwinkle?
   
   Bullwinkle is the ultimate hapless sidekick; Goofy is just, well, goofy.


3. Marvin the Martian or Bluto?
   
   Bluto. Marvin gives me the creeps; who can truly understand the alien mind?


4. Daffy or Donald?
   
   This is too easy...Daffy, of course. I might be tempted to go with Donald, if I could ever understand a freakin' thing he says! Somebody find this duck a speech therapist (and throw in a little anger management while you're at it).


5. Rocky or Pogo?
   
   Oof. This is the tough one. They're both stand-up, um, mammals...you wouldn't balk at either marrying your cartoon daughter. I give the barest of edges to Pogo for his sartorial splendor. The striped ref's shirt beats out the aviator's cap any day.


6. Bonus Question: Michael Moore or Wimpy?
   
   I have to go with the buffoonish, puffed-up burger-abusing dope.
