hey, if people like to keep up with zenyatta, good for them. i think it's the anthropomorphism that many find strange or odd. why people spend their day 'writing' as a horse, or reading such blather, is beyond me.

but then, i don't get the facebook phenomenon at all-let alone horses having pages.

Default ateamstupid is right

clearly the problem is not with Zenyatta but with certain over the top irrational fans that want to make the argument about her because
they are caught in the awkward position of being wrong

I know I am right about this because I spend more than $500 a day

There are people on Nerdy Trail that I like a lot and some I think are hysterically funny most of the time, some of the time, occassionally...

There are people who are friends of mine and of the people who have posted on this thread Theatrical is the one I've known for the longest (years).

You guys who are slamming her... you have no idea how wrong you are.

That's all I want to say.

Sorry, Theatrical, that sometimes it's like a contest who can be the biggest smartass at your expense.

Just ignore it.

You have a life and people who adore you. To hell with people who want to make incorrect assumptions in the name of comedy (or bad attempts at it).

LOL. Some people can't help themselves. If Zenyatta being in foal is of no concern to some of you, why in the heck do some of you respond?

For all the bitching, griping, etc. about this mare, she is retired. RETIRED.

How her connections choose to continually connect with those who care about what is going on with the mare, why in the hell do those who DON'T care seem to have to post something? Just don't do it. Ignore it. Pretend this thread doesn't exist. It really is very simple.

Puritans ruin everything. Theatrical is conditioned for the Internet 2.0. Pretty soon they'll start putting trolls in jail.

A lucid interval at zenyatta.com

"dearest zenyatta, our family is so happy with your baby news. team zenyatta had the right idea of waiting to announce the pregnancy on their own terms. we are all so concerend for your welfare and want nothing but the best for you!!! to be honest, some of your fans get a little bit NUTS over some things. they really need to get a life. you are a wonderful treasure and we do appreciate the updates on how you are doing. love the pictures of you enjoying the grass and sunshine. lots of love from our family to yours."

Emphasis mine.

What I like is people like you who bitch, whine and complain about a horse and yet, they post in threads about them. Even when they're retired.

Loon? Because I defended a retired horse? I said if people have a problem with a particular horse and they post in threads about them and want to criticize and complain about said horse, and people take exception to that, I am a loon?

You're an idiot.
