Analogies

Dexter's vehicle theme continues. He sometimes refers to his body parts as car parts.

Head = Roof
Eyes = Lights
Legs = Motors
Feet = Wheels
Hands = Mirrors
Arms = Windshield Wipers

It's consistent and it actually makes sense. Whenever I express concern about this behavior of dehumanizing himself and other people, friends say that it is just a sign of a good imagination and intelligence. Because of my reaction (I tell Dexter that he's a little boy and his hands are his hands, not car parts), Dexter now enjoys cajoling Mommy with his "imagination and intelligence". I guess that's pretty smart.
