And yes I believe that I did read you correctly. You took my riding less time than you as a slap in the face. Im used to that. Im sure you can tell Im not a horsemen, especially since you've never seen me in the saddle, ASS. Evidently you are some gifted essayer of horsemanship over a fuckin forum... If you want to front me out, fine. Get your shit straight first.
No, I don't take it as a slap in the face. I was only asking for clarification. Show me where I said anything about being a gifted essayer?
Oh and to infer that I must think you are a bitch for being rude and unduely confrontational... well, it must be because you feel deep down inside that you are. Especially when I've been more than forth coming in trying to clarify my "novice" answers for your experianced mind. I've known alot of riders with far more experiance than myself. Then again I've met many experts, not unlike yourself, who have riden for decades, and are quick to judge. Turns out when they get in the saddle, they end up looking like a monkey fucking a football. 29 years? If you are gonna call me a shovel, Etool or whatever, show some integrity and validate your own selfproclaimed expertise.
You want to call me rude, and then turn around and tell me I probably look like a monkey fucking a football on a horse, and call me an ass, and so on?
I was not rude, and I didn't candycoat either - I was tactful in my observation, which was
not based on your years in the saddle, nor your discipline of equestrian sport, but of your references to horses themselves. And again, show me, where have I claimed expertise? I have some, yes, but my qualifications weren't the subject and nor am I trying to rest on them - there's still plenty horses can teach me.
Anyone can ride the clock, it doesnt make them good at something. Hell you might be a rodeo queen, or an AQHA champ, great. Still, you've never seen me ride, and you just ended up looking jealous and a bit catty to me.
Of course I haven't seen you ride, and I haven't claimed to judge your abilities. To joust, you have to possess some skill, and I don't question that. No need to get defensive where there is no attack.
Oh side note... dont try to candycoat shit with pleasantries. You've only succeed in sounding like a cheerleader mom. You should understand that, being around all the Alphas here. Just fucking say it. You butter it up and you're just insuring a negative responce. Just like the one you just recieved.
Don't tell me how to post. I
did fucking say it, and now I'm responding to
your rude and
lengthy reply.
Ranger X... dont sit up too late waiting for that joust. As far as I can tell, Im the only one equiped for it. And I see her nowhere on the tournament lists.
You can't tell very well, and I was working. I left the entertainment to this evening.

Damn Toad...just looking for a spat, eh?

Well I don’t think tooting your horn in an intro is such a bad thing epically since there was some prompting by others (like me) to list more horse stuff.
Ranger Horned Toad, nothing I said was based on borebrush's having ridden 4 years. Therefore, it doesn't matter to me how long
you have ridden, either. In addition, if you re-read my post, you'll see this phrase: "it's all good" - as in, "yeah, so he bragged a little, who the hell cares?" I don't. Like you, I am also interested in talkin' horses, or at least I was until I read further.

Come on, face it you all can ride. Now lets shake hands and HAVE A DAMN BEER.
Your pal's a big boy, let him take care of himself.
His first response to Ride Girl was a bit much, she's been around awhile and we like her.
We don't know this new hero yet.
He's pretty pleased with himself but believe me, our Girl can teach him a thing or two.
Ranger xray, I'd love to have a beer with ya. Molson for me, what'll you have?
Nowhere have I said anything to one-up your friend borebrush. My disconcert was with the seemingly cavalier attitude towards his mounts, and because it was only from one post, I fully realize that it may not be the way he really feels, and
that's why I invited him to change my mind.
Ranger Kilted Heathen, speak of the devilish Scot! Thanks for the kind words. ;) Guinness, right?
