Fugly Wank of the Day
This is a couple of days old, but the drama is still going strong and getting crazier by the comment. So, the blog Fugly Horse of the Day's Sunday post features a picture of a toddler in a slightly drooping diaper standing barefoot in a pen brushing an unrestrained foal by a somewhat dubious fence, while two pens over his mother is grooming an older horse, also barefoot and possibly also in nothing but underwear. The caption of the photo seems to be from the mother herself, and reads:
"I was out side grooming my 3 girls today and Joseph wanted to help.And he loves playing with the baby so I gave him a brush and a way he went.This will be Josephs first horse he breaks on his own."

Cathy, the blog's owner, is less than impressed.
Pictures like this make me want to beat the parent in the head with a Pony Club manual. Again, it's not a stuffed toy. It's a 300 lb. unpredictable baby prey animal with sharp little hoofies. It is inches away from turning your child's foot into bloody hamburger, if not knocking him down and doing the same to his face. This isn't cute. This is negligence. If you're a loving parent - and I'm sure you think you are - get him some boots, some jeans, a helmet and a 25 year old pony!

The comments are a mixed bag of horrified reactions, support for the mother, calls for contacting the local Social Services, bashing of Social Services, people who claim the kid is obese, others who think he's at a healthy weight, redneck bashing, redneck defensiveness, people who have a grudge against Cathy, people who have a grudge against people who have a grudge against Cathy, people randomly talking about this one driving accident at a show, something about NASCAR and pit bulls and some stuff about whether Cathy is a hypocrite for not gelding her stallion, and finally it seems that the mother has come in and flipped her shit, although it's hard to tell what she's saying. *gasp-wheeze* Basically, it's just one giant unfunny clusterfuck. So far it spans 413 comments and still seems to be going strong.

ETA: Here are the mother's responses in all of their illegible glory. Thanks to [info]emiweebee for picking up my slack and digging up the first three for me!
ETA2: The woman's phone number has been removed from the main write-up. Damn my short attention span.

First I have to say that Im the PROUD PARENT of JOSEPH.That is not over weight and is in very good health.And as far as WHITE TRASH well gues what we just might be but I love my kids and will always let them be around horses.
As far as my FAT ASS Im proud of my ass and if you dont like it then dont look.
So if any of you would like to meet me and kick my FAT ASS then please feel free to call me and I will be more than happy to meet up with you so we can get this out and open.my number is ***-***-****call me anytime.
As far as the owner of this board if you think your shit dont stink then you need to smell again.Because the funny thing is is that your ASS is probable as big or bigger than my ASS..
= = = = =
Im not putting shoe's on him if he takes them off.So I guess Im just a bad parent that loves her children!But I have had HRS out before and so what Im happy to tell you that they were happy to see my kids with the horses.
But atleast I know that if my son or son's or daughter ever do die or get killed before their time it might just be from a horse rather than drugs.So if it means taking a chance on a horse then drugs well I guess Im just a none caring parent that lets them run around with no fucking shoe's on.What the hell do you think they done in the day before shoe's were around.Hello people wake the hell up and grow up take your kid out of the bubble wrap and let them be a kid.Shit..
= = = = =
He does listen to his parents.Has far as being barefooted I was NOT.So kiss my ass.OH that is right it is right there for you to do.LOL Guy I dont care what you say about me or my horses but when you talk shit about my kids even more so about my 3 year old shits fixing to happen.This back yard redneck BITCH will show you something.Again I gave my number feel free if you can back your words up or sit your FAT ASS in front of your computer and run that mouth.Im game for a go whip ass when it comes to my kids I dont care who you are..So bring it or shut up about my youngings..


And here's her latest response:
To start something else up?Why not!
Joseph was kicked in the the face before this picture was taken.By a horse while he was dressed and has shoe's on.LOL Sorry over the pissiness just flat dont care what you guys thing.Yes I do take in what some are saying and thank you but for the one's that want to trash or bash a now 3 year old boy GO FUCK YOURSELF.Sorry but back to Flying Fig,He was on the outside of a pen while we were all outside and went to pet her and she wheeled around to get away from him and hit the panel just right and split him nose wide open.(Fugly horse if you were to look hard enough you would find it to)LOL..But it was nothing other than an accident.He had plastic surgery with 74 stiches.So yes I have seen it.Anyway I will not be back on here again unless someone again emails me about it being about me and hope all has a good life.
Thank you to the one's that defended my son and kiss my ass to the one's that have nothing better to do other than talk shit about a 3 year old boy..


All I can say is, that poor, poor kid, and that poor, poor foal.

Damn. I'm too lazy to go through 413 comments, but I want to see the mother's reaction.

She gave out her phone number? With all those people threatening to call Social Services on her? WTF? She has... gonads, I guess.

(I'm more on the side of the people who don't think it's a matter for Social Services, not that I read every single comment or even close.)

The commenters on the blog are many flavors of batshit, the regulars and the featured alike.

A lot of them don't seem to understand the internet is not your private space for just your friends. A lot of them also think the OP, in using their own images/words against them, is committing a crime they can sue over.

Hey, thanks for saving me the trouble of hunting her comments down again. I meant to post her comments in the main post, but I got distracted and forgot. Whoops. Reading over her responses again, I feel that this may have been an unconscious self-defense mechanism on my part.

A lot of the comments are like that - I try to avoid them as much as possible. It's worse whenever the Fugly Wench of the Day posters show up. They try to play the intellectual superior card, but they don't seem to understand the arguments at hand...

I daresay that is somewhat of a trend over there, yes.

So this kid's destiny is narrowed down to (a) death from drugs, or (b) death by horses? Good work there, ma.

May I suggest this comment be screened, since it has the phone number?

Gah, I didn't even see that - I was just skimming for "my son" comments. The comment section really lowers your IQ.
