Apart from when man is rightly making them work, horses are pretty pointless. They defecate, lift up their rubbery lips to show-off their disgusting, stinking gums and have to be killed if they fall over.
Honestly. Horses are stupid and only a posho would disagree (mainly because of vague sentimentality from when they were a spoiled little so-and-so who had a daddy rich enough to buy them horse riding lessons).
And so, hats-off to The World’s Most Credible Television Production House In The Universe (c/o Guardian readers), HBO, for killing a bunch of horses in the name of entertainment. If any horses are reading this and feel offended by it, feel free to invent a keyboard that accommodates your clunking hooves and send us an email.
