Something We Can All Agree On: The Friday Nooner (EST)!
A Dog Riding A Miniature Horse
You guys sure do love to argue!
It doesn’t really seem to matter what the subject is either; from whether the Super Bowl ads were actually that bad (answer: yes, they were) to whether Arrested Development was a funny show or not (answer: yes, it was), you guys have managed to turn all of this week’s comments sections into a battle zone.
Now it’s Friday and, to be honest, I’m exhausted. And nervous. Maybe even a little bit scared. It’s been a contentious week here on the Cracked Blog and I don’t really want to face your wrath today, Cracked readers. That’s why I’m posting a video that I’m pretty sure we can all agree on, something that nobody in their right minds could possibly hate.
We all have our differences, but surely we can all agree that this video of a dog riding a miniature horse is pretty much the best thing ever.

My prediction: there is about to be an argument here over either 1) dog training techniques, 2) Cesar Millan, or 3) whether saying someone is “hung like a miniature horse” is an insult or a compliment.
February 8th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
You’re wrong buddy. You’ve merely posted a nice, gentle video.
Also, do you think the two creatures are aware of each other?
February 8th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Well, I’m inclined to agree. Best thing ever.
February 8th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
I was just going to say the video was cute, but now my hand has been forced to include my opinion on whether being “hung like a miniature horse.” Definitely a compliment still cause he’d still be bigger than any human for sure.

Get it? A dog and pony show?

“I demand to see a video where a horse is riding a miniature dog!”
I was originally going to say that but after watching this video, i’m too relaxed.
Damn you Ross.

Why did this video give me an erection?
February 8th, 2008 at 1:17 pm
You son of a bitch. Can’t you see this is animal cruelty at it’s harshest?
That dog is probably terrified; he fears the dizzying height of being atop the horse, yet knows if he jumps down, he’ll have to sleep in the washing machine again tonight. The poor horse is being driven to madness, longing for the miniature open fields, but knowing only the harsh glare of the sun on the wooden fence that restricts his freedom.
It’s all so sad.

This is really funny:

kingmonkey, are you retarded? Who cares about the dog? What if the horse is arthritic and can’t bear the weight of that dog, explaining why it’s moving so slowly. Possibility of it slipping in it’s own shit? Then you lose the horse, AND the dog. Double whammy.
February 8th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
Oh, so you think a horse is more important that a dog, you douchebag? Well, when was the last time a horse (miniature or maxiature) saved Timmy from a well? Never, that’s when!
See, Ross? We can turn anything into an argument. If even only to prove you wrong…

Hey… this has nothing to do with the Dog and Pony show. I’m just wondering if anyone is going to start writing about Lost, like that one chap did with Heroes. I loved reading those on Tuesdays.
Jack: “WHAT’S THE MONSTER?”
Ben: “I don’t know.”
Me: Ah crap!
February 8th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
‘maxiature’?
February 8th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Gibbo: Excellent derail. Screw the smoke monster - I want to talk about the fact that rather than answering any questions, the Lost writers have chosen to add 4 (FOUR!) new characters… and one of them is a GHOSTBUSTER. Are you fucking kidding me?!
February 8th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Rossinsky, you weren’t expecting to see a reasonable plot twist, were you?
And GMan… you can see what I was going for there. I just Shakespeared my own new word.

This video reminds me of a joke about a horse.
February 8th, 2008 at 3:53 pm
Cesar Millan is cool. He’s like a Jedi master, for dogs.
February 8th, 2008 at 4:43 pm
Its kind of the great thing, but if it was monkey riding a dog riding a miniature horse, THAT would be the best thing ever.
February 8th, 2008 at 4:46 pm
I’ll get right on that, I-Rod.
February 8th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
You guys are fucking retards, the real issue here isn’t the horse or the dog, it’s whether Australia should have troops in Iraq supporting your tyrannical American asses. I SAY WE BRING OUR BOYS HOME, CRIMINALIZE MARIJUANA AND ABORTIONS, AND AGREE THAT VIDEO GAMES CAUSE VIOLENCE.
February 8th, 2008 at 5:43 pm
Video Games dont cause violence. Well-meaning comedy blogs do. Also, Video Games.
February 9th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
I’d prefer to see one monkey riding another monkey riding a dog riding a miniture horse.
Alas, the circle of life is complete.
February 9th, 2008 at 6:00 pm
Yea, those Lost writers are pricks. They finally reached a point within their own story where they’d finally have to reveal SOMETHING. anything really would have made us happy. But instead they decide to just go off on another tangent with new mysteries like who’s in the coffin?, who does kate have to get back to?, why are jack and kate not talking?, what started jack’s downward spiral, what the fuck is it Hurley has to do? Can’t they just explain the smoke monster? Just to throw us loyal viewers a goddamn bone. What the fuck?
February 9th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Video games DO cause violence. Every time that sonofabitch satan beats me in the final battle in Guitar Hero 3 I beat my kids senseless for breathing so damn loudly in the next room that I couldn’t concentrate….
I’d like to see a duckbilled platapus riding a dingo riding a chimp riding a dolphin riding a hippo. that’d be the cutest, most terrifying thing ever….
February 9th, 2008 at 9:56 pm
I’m with Hoy.
And not only do video games make you violent, they are violent. I’ll never forget the day that Crash Bandicoot killed my father and raped my mother.

too many injokes, and the camerawork was shaky.

I think this news article must have been inspired by Cracked.com.

As i suspected when i first watched this video, and as was confirmed by the second photo in that daily mail article, these animals are entirely unclear on what the fuck is going on.
in the video neither the dog nor the pony seem all that into it, meaning they probably have to do this all the time and have no idea why it’s so amusing to everyone but them.
as for kingmonkey’s article, i defy you to look at that second picture and tell me that both those animals are not scared shitless of the whole ordeal.
In any case, teaching these animals to work together is one step closer to a 12 monkeys style uprising.

“…these animals are entirely unclear on what the fuck is going on…(nor do they)seem all that into it, meaning they probably have to do this all the time and have no idea why it’s so amusing to everyone but them.”
ummm, you just described my sex life….

Wow Hoy1229 you have made me start giggling like a crazyperson which wouldn’t be bad if I wasn’t sitting here at work
February 13th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
Yeah, Hoy made me giggle. . . twice
