i have been bothered by this girl for a while now, and i just need to vent. if you like yeebabopeeba, probably don't bother clicking the cut.
*EDIT* if anyone knows what the deleted posts over in horse_photos are saying (they keep getting deleted before i can read them, damn it!) pls leave me a comment in my journal. anon if you want. also, i just left the girl a really long reply and if that gets deleted i'll post it here. this is getting ridiculous. she's just TRYING to cause drama now.
*EDIT AGAIN*yep my comment did get deleted. :x
*YES ANOTHER EDIT AND HOPEFULLY THE LAST* no, yeebapobeeba is not trying to start drama. it was the mod of the other community who was deleting things, and i thought it was yeeba. i stand corrected. i still stand behind my post, though.
this girl just bugs the shit out of me. she puts these horrible (not from a technical point of view, but the subject matter itself) pictures up with these ignorant, annoying fucking captions. it all starts on 6/1 with this post:
http://community.livejournal.com/horse_photos/533786.html#cutid1here she brags about her "trainer," a great man who rides in some type of homemade gag bit, and "trains" the horses by hauling on their faces and cowboying them around. here we have exibit A, as she says, "My instructor, Shane, riding a training horse. She has world champion reining lines in her, yet she's a very bad mare, haha. She's tried killing her owners a few times and refuses to stop once you get her going. So the owners brought her out to see what Shane could do. He of course, was able to tame her, somewhat...She also hates men :)." she's a very bad mare! she hates men! cause ya, anyone who knows ANYTHING about horses knows that there are some that are just BAD! even so, this wonderful trainer was able to SOMEWHAT train her, by...
"Teaching her that if she won't stop, she can just turn in circles all day until she's ready to give in. It worked, too."
oh yes, did it ever work! check out that light stopping action! boy did he ever teach her to be sensitive to the stop aids! er, i mean, haul on her face:
and then we have this gem:
i was pretty much horrified by this and her description of all the other animals they apparently have, and i offered to get her barn a spay/neuter certificate. her response? "haha well..Shane, my instructor, does all the neutering. As for Sissy, the momma cat, she only had 3 litters. She's spayed now too. And for all the puppies, they breed them there and sell them. So it's not THAT bad as it seems. Although we were relieved when we found out Sissy got spayed."
well i stand corrected! she only had 3 litters, so that's ok! 3 litters is NOTHING! oh, and they're backyard breeders!!! the world can never have enough of those! and hey, he can ZOMG do his own neutering and TRAIN horses, so that must make him a great breeder! cause you know people that let cats have 3 litters are just such resonsible pet owners and breeders! WTF???
and yes, responsible breeders' animals always look like they're dying of starvation!
^^seen in her next annoying post:
http://community.livejournal.com/horse_photos/535368.html#cutid1 in this gem of a post, we also see pictures of the horse she rides, who apparently got chased through a fence and all cut up:
hmmmm maybe if you didn't keep you horses behind barb wire (as seen in post#4) this shit wouldn't happen, ya think, ya dumb fuck??
post #3
http://community.livejournal.com/horse_photos/537113.html#cutid1 again showcases her trainer's mad skillz! see more training from the great master! watch as he yanks, pulls and muscles the fox trotter into "SUBMISSION!" he'll show that "bad horse" [name of one of the pics] who's boss!
and hey! not only is he a great trainer, but look at his son! boy, that kid can RIDE! cause little kids (TRAINER's kids, no less!) balancing on horses' mouths and harrassing them is so ZOMG KYOOOT! i love to see the next generation of shitty riders! it just warms my heart!
wow, that is one happy pony!
hey...at least one of them is enjoying himself!
then we have post #4,
http://community.livejournal.com/horse_photos/540483.html#cutid1 in which we meet the "Butch Lesbian Fire-Breathing Camel Dragon:"
then we have our dear poster's friend emma, who "likes making her freak out..."
gee, the fact that emma TRIES to freak out the poor horse surely has nothing to do with her personality! there's no connection there! horses HAVE no personalities, you know; they're ROBOTS!
wow, putting horses and bbies behind barbed wire is the #1 mark of a good trainer and responsible owner!!!
oh and then of course there's this picture, captioned "ouch"...yeah, ouch, you think, you stupid fucking moron? i'd like to keep you in a barbed wire house for a while and see how ouch it is.
post #5
http://community.livejournal.com/horse_photos/543126.html#cutid1 was just the fucking clincher. the pictures of that foal broke my heart. hmmm let's take a foal that hasn't had much handling and chasse it around with a plastic bag until it's soaked with sweat and so terrified and tired it'll let me do anything i want to it! did i say terrified? err...i meant...desensitized! yes! that's it!!!!
after about 20 picutrse of pure torture, we get this shot, wherein the baby is trying to climb out of the round pen
err wait, did i say climb out? i meant, he's feeling a little "selfconscious"! haha you know how selfconscius those babies can be! [in a later comment, she tells me her trainer uses clinton anderson's methods. just goes to show you how easily methods that actually have some merit can be misunderstood and twisted by someone who doesn't understand them and clearly doesn't care to.]
"shane approaches the little depressed horse" the fucking dipshit APPROACHES the baby. does he not know anything??? aww the poor widdle depressed horse! it's so sad!
"then bam, he explodes" yeah, you would too if a predator approached you
these pictures are horrific. after about 10 more of the foal bucking and trying to run away from the asshole, we get this:
"good boy, way to be submissive" waalll yeah, that thar is bout the submissivest horse i ever did see!
"so much anger and fear" no fucking shit, i'd be pissed and afraid too if some strange guy was coming after me with a big scary stick!
"Shane's trying to teach him to lead..or trust him..or be submissive..er something." lord knows that's the best way to do it! er...whatever it is he's trying to do! cuz liek i'm just so ST00PID and YOUNG, well what do i know? he's a trainer, so this must be the right way! LOLZ
this is disgusting. wtf is wrong with this guy? does this make him feel like a big man? or does he just need to get the horse "broke" in a hurry and doesn't give a shit if he goes about it completely wrong, and totally cruelly?
then he abuses-er, trains-the mother a little bit. again, a horror show
"haha i like this one" i LUUUV to see the horsies go crazy! it's so funny and KYOOT when the horse is so terrified all its feet come off the ground at the same time! she's a paint; her eyes are SUPPOSED to be white all the way around! DURRR?
i'm sorry, but if an adult horse is this fucking terrfied of something, forcing her to accept it is not going to do any good. mother fucker, i just want to beat this guy senseless!
see what a great trainer he is????
"i like how he can go from this"
"to a nice western pleasure horse"
or, yanno, this
or even this!
i love how there's one shot showing the mare w/2 feet on the tarp, with a caption "good, stupid horse" [i just noticed it and i'm too lazy to photobucket it]. then she says, "Shane also got her to walk all over the tarp, but those pictures were boring." riiiiiight. cause all the horrendous pictures were just so much more exciting. right? why bother posting pictures of her being "good"? cause she IS just SO good...when no one's watching, of course. UGH!
this girl then proceeds to tell me that i am "closed-minded" and that her trainer is "more informed on horses" than i am....this girl sounds really young and i'm sure she just doesn't know any better, but DAMN is she annoying! this barn is a classic example of all the ways horses can be mistreated and abused by people who just don't know any better and/or don't care enough to learn-and, worse, how they pass their lack of knowledge onto young, impressionable people who trust them and don't know any better. i dunno, this post seemed relevant here, but if anyone thinks it isn't, i'll take it down. :(
sorry it's so long...this post has just been building up in me, i guess. :/
