Thank you. I'm glad someone grew up away from the farm and had a TV.

I had one, goddamn death trap in disguise.


I used to ride it all the time until one day I got too wild and fell off of it. I had tighty-whities that werent very tight and when I fell off, the hook from the spring made it inside my over-sized undies and cut my pecker and my penny purse. Now my pecker has a scar.

I was able to have one after the neighbors threw theirs out and it had one missing spring and no handle on the head.

They have a new model of that as well. My son has one. Has covers over the springs for safety. Plus it makes music because it's specially designed to give children and parents ADHD.

It was called a farm where I grew up and the pony was part of the equipment to run the farm. Not sure why you would hate someone who started work before the sun and worked till after it went down. I guess you must have hated the food we put on your table.


The gif just perfectly illustrates this back and forth, I picture you exactly as the old lady

Real horses are consistent work.

I had one of these as well...exactly like the one pictured! I really didn't know these were as popular as they apparently were. Mine is still in my parent's attic.

I was never an actor on a comedy about crazy New Yorkers.

Except for being old, I fall to see the similarity.

Battle Cat is the shite. That thing is worth about $900 bucks if you still have it.

Some of us aspired to the little pony on a stick, but named our worn out broom sticks anyway.
