    It’s clear none of you all have dealt with horses IRL.

    If you shake a plastic bag at a car, it doesn’t spook and run over 4 kids and then crash into a wall. A car doesn’t randomly decide to eject you into the street. A car doesn’t stop to poop. I love horses, but c’mon.

      Because a car doesn’t have a sphincter, so they just fart and dribble a little, all of the time.

        Yeah, but that’s just rude to not let them stop. It’s more comfortable for them if the rider leans forward in the saddle (so I was taught growing up)

          That’s just squatting in solidarity.

      I’ve never dealt with horses but i don’t know why people to expect horses to be like this when you realise that any animal is not going to act the same even within the same species

      Horses are animals

      A car doesn’t stop to poop.

      This gave me weird mental imagery.

      And it’s probably a fetish on the Internet somewhere.
