Due to a scheduling issue, I had to take equine science in high school. I learned about how fragile horses are when it comes to colic. I wouldn't say that I hate horses, only that I'd hate to own one. They've gone from a necessity to a very large, expensive pet in the past 100 years.

A modern horse is a mechanism through which time and money is converted into poop and exasperation.
