The jokeThe second image is a Ptolemaic statuette of the Egyptian deity Anpu from perhaps ~200 BCE. It is old. So is the bus. Additionally, Anubis was sometimes known as "The Dog who Swallows Millions", compared here to the poor economy of school buses. Finally, I'm not very good at understanding jokes. Hope that helps.
