We Should All Be So Lucky As To Find Something In This World That Makes Us Happy, Part Three

thumbnail icon: We Should All Be So Lucky As To Find Something In This World That Makes Us Happy, Part Three

It's hard out there! I know it's hard out there. This guy knows it's hard out there. If it's not one thing, it's another. You just have to keep your head down, and do whatever it takes to get through the day. For some people that means unwinding after a day at the office with a nice scotch and an episode of Ice Road Truckers. ("I'm just so excited to find out if they drive that truck successfully over that ice!") For some people it's taking a pottery class at the local community center, or swing dance lessons with a teacher you found on craigslist who smells like alcohol and plastic. It's like T.I. said before he went to prison for attempting to purchase machine guns with silencers on them: you can have whatever you like! (Except machine guns with silencers on them.)

This is America!

And OK, maybe you want to dress up in a terrifyingly "life-like" horse costume and prance around in your backyard in front of some dilapidated furniture, like some kind of living humanoid Cirque Du AHHHHHHHH. Go for it, dude.

Hey, if it gives me vivid waking nightmares that's my fault for not exercising my natural right as an American citizen to stab my eyes out. MEANWHILE:

The YouTube description on the Black Stallion video is just: "horsing around." Haha. Sure. Just horsing around. IN A HELLSCAPE OF YOUR SHATTERED MIND. (Via WarmingGlow.)

Da Cake Eatur? Is that you?

I feel like I'm Geena Davis at the end of the Fly when she's looking at the twisted lump of Brundlefly bug-flesh that used to be human and looking for something, anything resembling the spark of genuine humor and intelligence that (seemed?) to once be there.

I'm going to go get my shotgun, Da Cake Eatur, but please believe me this is out of love.

Even though it's probably true, I think it's funny how we refuse to believe there could possibly be more than one troll out there. Da Cake Eatur has ruined it for everyone else for the rest of time.

it'd be fun to hire the horse to sneak into a friend's room while that friend is sleeping. then, hire him again to visit that same friend at the asylum.

machine guns with silencers is such a silly idea! shhh! don't make too much noise when you messily slaughter these people!

similar ideas: guillotine with a comfy padded neck hole; machete with wrist strap; chainsaw with fur-covered chain.

The complete silence save the sound of traffic in the distance and the rustling of leaves under his hoof-feet as he adjusts himself into the perfect position makes this all the more terrifying. I mean, inspiring.

My favorite part of this video is that the camera is not on a tripod - Someone is holding the camera and IS NOT laughing.

Also, no one has answered my question... Do any of you guys have the phone # for the Dream Warriors? I need to call them up so they can help me destroy this nightmare.

In a few days, when those images in my mind of the horseface close up become too much and I rip out my eyes with my bare hands, I'll think back and realize that I probably shouldn't have watched this right before bedtime.

I don't understand the impulse to gouge your eyes out after viewing these videos. Is this really the last thing you want to see for the rest of your life? Better just put a gun in your mouth and pull the trigger (use a silencer, duh, we are not barbarians). [insert Black Dahlia gif here]

The real question is who's holding the camera? In my dreams, it's a really supportive girlfriend, who paints the parts on his back he can't reach. She wears a cute dress and Mary Janes while on the look out for cops. It's not her thing but "what can I say, I love him!"

Also I see so many similarities between the stallion video and that guy modeling his freakishly long blonde hair from a few months ago. Like, a disquieting sincerity and inexplicable creepiness.

My favorite part is the guy at :10 in the last video who walks in, sees what's going on and immediately leaves. Like, "oh god, Bob is doing that thing again with his cat suit. I better leave before he starts trying to groom me."

I love how the Tiger Guy decided against crawling down the stairs (probably because it would scuff his awesome leg paint), so then he just saunters down right out of a nightmare.

I want to comment on these guys but am distracted by the sting of being exposed. Not the right reaction after watching something so emotionally thwarted. It’s just a little too close to the nerve after that scotch, Ice Road Truckers, pottery and swing dance comment there, bud. I think I know how these guys must be feeling (ok I have no idea what these guys must be feeling).

no, it wasn't the time-consuming application of body-paint or the bad poses he made her video tape weekly that finally made patty leave her half-man-half-horse lover, it was the half-man-half-cat that knew how to crawl on stairs, now she no longer had to wait for the elevator.

I know that deer-man thinks it's all sexy to dress up as deer-man and pose in the outdoors, and fine, whatever works for you, just be careful where you do that. If you do that in the state of Wisconsin, you will get shot. Is that supposed to be part of it? I can't tell what's in bounds and out of bounds with these dudes.
