It's usually at least $100 around here, so I went and bought a bottle as quickly as I could. They're already popping up on our local Craigslist equivalent, priced at $60 firm.

Horses are dumb and obsolete. The schadenfreude is derived from anyone who decides to buy a horse later in life when they got some cash, in an attempt to fulfil some absurd childhood fantasy, only to realise they're hella expensive, dumb AF, and don't give a poo poo about you. Oh, and riding is also dumb. Just get a go kart or dune buggy or sports car; this isn't the 19th century.

Nutsngum posted:As amusing as all these quotes are they do sound ridiculously exaggerated, ala usual goon posting. Whats the deal horse in the knows? Having said that, back in the day a horse was really important to whomever owned it and so they spent a lot of time teaching those horses whatever it was they were supposed to do. Military horses could be around cannons, gunfire, and screaming people waving weapons around without losing their poo poo. Now, like JoelJoel said, there are a lot of idiots who get one because they always wanted a pony, then don't know how to ride or train them and bad things happen. Never ceases to amaze me how goddamn dumb people are. There's a pretty universal rule that any animal, be it dog, cat, or horse with their ears back like that is going to gently caress your poo poo up.

I doubt most wild horses would stick around eating grass when some random biker walked up to them. Odds are he was some jackass loving around with some rancher's horses and he eventually annoyed them enough to git bit. Tear up some clover and hold it at arm's length and just stand there and you will be a horse's BFF, ears back or no

My turkey story was 100% true. My friend's idiot horse gave her a concussion because it saw a turkey that it sees every day and got spooked and threw her, and this became common enough that they had to put up a wall. She also bit her horse in anger and when someone saw her she just shouted back "well... he bit me FIRST!!" Donkies are rad and good though. All ponies are evil hateful creatures but they don't try to kill them selves. It's really just any sort of "show" or performance horse that is idiotic. Either because it's pampered, trained in a way that fucks it up mentally, or driven way too hard physically. Socks the shire horse that pulls a cart sometimes is probably an ok horse.

I go to Assateague Island fairly often, there are herds of wild ponies there that walk along by the side of the roads, eating, crapping, and being photographed by tourists. They're not fazed by people, but they'll bite and kick without provocation.

They're not fazed by people, but they'll bite and kick without provocation. I worked with wild horses for a whole summer in 2015. In a big empty field like that I would be pretty surprised to see wildies that close to someone instead of running away. It was a challenge to get within a hundred feet of most of them. The ones that are more accustomed to people will let you get closer though, but they need to be familiar with you and still often won't let you within arms' reach. Regardless, I can assure anyone that wild horses are just as loving dumb as domestic ones.

Right now Alberta's governed by the no-name brand left party and oil is doing super poorly!
