          I dunno, I’ll have to do my own research on this one, my third cousin’s dog walkers nephew’s barber said he read a tweet declaring they were actually the same animal, just one ate more as a youth and has an accent due to the weight.

      I mean you’re not wrong but no matter how small an impact it’s still not ZERO emissions, so the guy you’re replying to is technically correct.

          Actually, it’s the best kind of correct. But hey, don’t let all that butt hurt bother you. I hear there’s a cream for that.

          I love that I agreed with you and you STILL felt aggrieved, lol.

            Jokes on you, clown, I’m never butt-hurt, only butt-turned-on!

            Disdaining the “technically correct” pedants is freeing, try it sometime, you might like it ;)

      Look at how much calories a horse needs per day, and then look at how much CO2 gets emitted to produce said food. Even the amount of CO2 a horse exhales per day is already significant.
