Why would anyone move from a pony country to a non-pony country?

The other day, someone posted to the seattle community, asking if anyone had the space to store someone’s 8 or so* mini-ponies for the winter. I struck upon an amazing idea, friends. Maybe a once-in-a-lifetime idea.

 

convo

I am going to travel in majestic style this winter. I hope the Fred Meyer has a place for me to chain up 8 or so mini-ponies while I get groceries.

I also hope the ponies can handle stairs or they’re going to have to hang out on my back patio all winter. I’m not concerned about how they’ll get along with Napoleon–either they’ll establish dominance and kick him in the face until they become friends, or I won’t have to buy dog food for a while.

 

 

*Seriously, how is it that they only have an estimate as to the number of ponies they have? Is that a sign that you have too many ponies? Can you HAVE too many ponies?

    Your brilliance and smartassiness put me in awe.

      I can’t not be a smartass, holding things in puts a terrible strain on my organs. 🙁

      When I have money, my status will be upgraded to ‘eccentric’.

        I, for one, cannot wait until it’s acceptable for me to dress like a cross between Prince and Karl Lagerfeld.

          I’m thinking about going for a mix between Queen Elizabeth I and a Terminator.

            Isn’t that how Joss Whedon explained the inspiration for Illyria?

            DAMN YOU JOSS WHEDON FOR THINKING OF IT FIRST!

            Honestly, I don’t know, I’m not a huge Whedon fan. And by not a huge Whedon fan, I mean that I like Firefly and that’s about it.

    Caution: you can get horses to go up stairs but not down them.

    More importantly: 8 horses. At Christmas time. While you prepare your Santa suit. HELLO

      You’re right, I need a sleigh and a mess of fake antlers!

        Get them unicorn horns and you’ll be like a fabulous Homo Claus!

    Amusing how small Seattle is. The original poster in question is a close friend.

      You’ve had access to mini-ponies this WHOLE TIME and you never said anything?!?

      1. aelius27 December 8, 2009 at 11:45 pm

        I’m not sure if access is the correct word, but essentially yes. mini-ponies are too good to share.

    Epic win.

    No, I don’t think there is such a thing as too many mini-ponies.

      I knew as I was taking like 30 different pictures of myself making faces with that mustache that they would come in handy for laughs someday. 🙂
