Can't decide on a horsie tomorrow? Let me and my trusty darts and blindfold help you. Theres 24 to choose from. You say go and I'll shoot for one. Giddy up.

This one has been scratched - failed the vet check

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 9 months ago (5 children)

Yeah that's why I shot again. So far that's the only one.

You want me to shoot for you?

Probably one of the best music videos ever

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Especially considering they did it with next to no budget. Maybe I'm just getting nostalgic because I turn 30 this week, but it feels like the internet has gotten much flashier and fancier when it comes to "viral" videos these days.

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Well I think it’s the creativity and genuine effort that that people respond to..eventually

Happy Birthday πŸ₯³

I think that one has been scratched. Not a good start for you. Don't worry I've chosen again.

*P.S. The kid doesn't understand scratched. I should've explained to her.

Don't hang that board next to a gas line and don't ask me why I know.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh shit!!!

It's sitting on a chair near the front door. I swear the cushion only got stabbed once but the dog keeps getting close.

Can I interest you in a shot?

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You score 100 if you get the dog….

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's gonna cost more at the vet. πŸ˜”

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It’s only a risk if the dog deflates.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago

Yeah he's a tough dog. He'll yelp but he still won't get out the way.

[–] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Am I too late for one? GO!! (please)

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oooh. Thank you! Cool name. What's the jersey like though?!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 9 months ago

Looks to be white with blue and white stripe sleeves. Nice.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

I’m in. Go!

Edit: In the name of name Deadpool and Wolverine.

Let’s fucking go!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I bullseyed that one.

*The Map

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Odds for The Map are 51 dollars. Going to win it rich!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago

It's been done before.

That's actually the one I'm going for tomorrow. Hahaha.

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I have no idea who is even running!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago

Me neither until I turn the little notes over πŸ˜‚

[–] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'd like the horsies to have their own party in a nice field where they can chill out with delicious grass. Maybe a sneaky horse cocktail.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago

Some horsies love the thrill of the chase. That's why some are called race horses and some are called paddock horses.

May your horse come in!

[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Why not, not like it's actually gambling or anything (which I'm mostly hopeless at)... GO!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Thankyou. If my MIL runs a sweep tomorrow I'll pick that one.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Each way? You courageous soul.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hey Ceo.

Have you drawn a horse for yourself?

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 9 months ago

I like #2 Buckaroo but fairs fair and I shot

Which I think is another favourite.
