Can I Have Some Of What He's Got Please?

There are good pictures, so-so pictures, funny pictures, pictures that make you sad, and then there are pictures like this one...

My best guess was that this lovely picture was taken just shortly after this gelding finished having a pee. Note the outstretched back legs, the... um.... appendage featuring quite prominently,  and his expression/ears focused backwards. (I'm really going to try to avoid using words that will cause this blog to come up on an... adult... keyword search in google :P I really don't need those type of comments, you know?)

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaa, ok. And - what is UP with the lavender background? 

This looks like a really bad cell phone picture, that was taken at just the WRONG time. 

Unfortunately for this poor ill-presented gelding, he's for sale.

Seriously???!!! $6000???!!!

NOW I understand why the background is purple on the picture. This guy is hallucinating. He's hallucinating badly. And apparently, is convinced that the rest of the world needs to see things the same twisted and warped way he does. I'd like to know what Tom is on, cause, MAN, it MUST be some good stuff!

Oh... and the last time I checked a QH/TB cross was called an appendix Quarter Horse? 

I'd like to know exactly what bloodlines this GELDING has thats worth $6000? Why aren't they worth mentioning by name if they are so great? I just can't see any other reason why he'd put that high of a price tag on this horse. The horse isn't finished, he's just 3 years old, he goes fast, aannnd..... he's got bloodlines that go back a hundred years. Theres not a damn thing in that list thats worth $6000! 

Do I really have to say that all horses have bloodlines that go back a hundred years. Otherwise, the horse, like, wouldn't exist? DUH! Horses don't exactly appear out of thin air anymore. Maybe during the Roman Historical Period when they worshiped Gods like Poseidon who created horses out of the sea... But... Yea. No. 

Note to seller: Lets try picking a much better,(maybe non-urinating?), time to take that picture of the horse you are selling? He looks pretty shiny and well kept, so I'll not slam you for not grooming the horse. However, next time you might actually want to look at the picture you just took to make sure the horse isn't going to embarrass himself by appearing in front of the world with his shl0ng hanging down! I know most horse people don't really care about that, heck we've all heard of the sheath cleaning song, but when trying to present your horse in the best possible way to potential buyers, you'd think you'd maybe edit this one out of the possibilities pile? Between his "happy state" and the horrible color in the background, this picture gets a negative 20 on my scale of good picture taking!
