Tastelessness to the "X"treme







No, you are NOT imagining things, that is EXACTLY what you think it is. Tasteless is a gross understatement. Now, I enjoy going to a strip club with a bunch of guys as much as the next girl (if you haven't, try it, it is hilarious to watch the guys), but I wouldn't put strippers on my horse's tack! Geez folks, really?

    My daughter-in-law found this and sent it to me and I just had to send it to you. I've seen this kind of stuff on the mud flaps of the big rigs but, geese, never on a horse! I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to get to know the cowboy that thought this was appropriate decoration for his tack. This does move it at least one rung lower from tacky to tasteless!

    Maybe it's Katie Price's new line of Western equestrian gear. At least it's not pink and sparkly... yet.

    MMmmmm.

    It's like the personals ads where guys show photos of their "junk."

    And they think that women LIKE that.

    Have you checked out the site and their products?? Holy crap some of that shit looks like the stuff pitbull owners (no offense to you that do right by the dogs.. I'm talking about the ones who fight their dogs that come into my store) would put on a horse if they had them. Bits with SPIKES down the shank and bridles with SPIKES down the cheeks and across the browband, man if you had a horse that liked to rub it's head on your arm.... OWWWWWWWWWW

    Men, a word of advice: You are a minority in the horse world, which means you will have single horsewomen fawning all over you -- AS LONG AS you don't do something stupid like this to screw it up for yourself!

    And they'll have a booth at the National High School Rodeo Finals. Great. Start 'em off young. Way to go.

    Their workmanship looks nice though, even if their taste is vile. I can imagine some of their more artistic designs working really well in a highly stylized film like the Nazgul in LOTR. Sorry I geeked out for a second there.

    Yep, that is tasteless tacky and just stupid. Do guys think women like that shit? Do guys that buy this stuff think? Oh well...

    I was actually thinking that the cinch gave a new meaning to 'belly dancer'.

    And I would never put spikes on a bridle. Not on any of the horses *I* deal with. I'd end up hurt!

    My son looked over my shoulder and asked "is that an aardvark?!?" Husband and I said aardvarks would be an improvement. Son agreed.

    (He's not ignorant of what a female body looks like, I think he just couldn't conceive of this level of tacky...)

    So trashy - I can just picture the type of person who would use this; camo saddle and all.

    The whole thing is ... why? It's a horse. Horses don't go in strip clubs, and they actually lead to a reduced sperm count, not an increased one. So why on earth would you try to put this tastelessness on a horse?

    Sigh... some people, eh?

    I couldn't even talk to a man that had this sort of shit on his horse. I'd be laughing too hard.

    I'm trying to remember the last time I was speechless.
    Worst Ever isn't strong enough.
    Does it make anyone else think of serial killers? "Sure he was a little off, but he was quiet and smiled a lot."

    I am so tempted to contact the company and ask them if this stuff really sells.

    Okay, went there--it does. But now I see that it's more for the rodeo circuit and the self-proclaimed "tough" riding. I guess someone who would use this stuff would have to be a little off. Obviously they don't offer any humane tack, such as full cheek snaffles or Prince of Wales spurs.

    I have to admit I kinda like the pistol bit, though. And some of it would be cool for costumes, especially for Halloween.

    Now I've seen everything (WTF!!!!)

    Pressumably aimed at beer swilling redneck adolescents ?

    Bizarre & wrong : (

    Why would you put stuff like that on a horse. Bad enough seeing on trucks etc but a horse????

    Go figure ......

    This might be the best thing I've seen in a while. It's a douche bag detection system!

    Is the horse wearing this stuff? The owner is a douche! :P

    We all know which guy is buying this stuff, it is the "donkey" with the big foot truck that has the "bag & balls" hanging off the bumper.
