Can't decide on a horsie tomorrow? Let me and my trusty darts and blindfold help you. Theres 24 to choose from. You say go and I'll shoot for one. Giddy up.

[–] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Am I too late for one? GO!! (please)

Oooh. Thank you! Cool name. What's the jersey like though?!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

Looks to be white with blue and white stripe sleeves. Nice.

That's actually the one I'm going for tomorrow. Hahaha.

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I have no idea who is even running!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

Me neither until I turn the little notes over πŸ˜‚

This one has been scratched - failed the vet check

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah that's why I shot again. So far that's the only one.

You want me to shoot for you?

[–] TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Yes please. I don't usually bet on the cup but this is too too tempting. Let the darts decide!

I think that one has been scratched. Not a good start for you. Don't worry I've chosen again.

*P.S. The kid doesn't understand scratched. I should've explained to her.

Probably one of the best music videos ever

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Especially considering they did it with next to no budget. Maybe I'm just getting nostalgic because I turn 30 this week, but it feels like the internet has gotten much flashier and fancier when it comes to "viral" videos these days.

I’m in. Go!

Edit: In the name of name Deadpool and Wolverine.

Let’s fucking go!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I bullseyed that one.

*The Map

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Odds for The Map are 51 dollars. Going to win it rich!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

It's been done before.

trusty darts and blindfold help you

Don't hang that board next to a gas line and don't ask me why I know.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh shit!!!

It's sitting on a chair near the front door. I swear the cushion only got stabbed once but the dog keeps getting close.

Can I interest you in a shot?

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You score 100 if you get the dog….

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's gonna cost more at the vet. πŸ˜”

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s only a risk if the dog deflates.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah he's a tough dog. He'll yelp but he still won't get out the way.

[–] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'd like the horsies to have their own party in a nice field where they can chill out with delicious grass. Maybe a sneaky horse cocktail.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago

Some horsies love the thrill of the chase. That's why some are called race horses and some are called paddock horses.

[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why not, not like it's actually gambling or anything (which I'm mostly hopeless at)... GO!

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thankyou. If my MIL runs a sweep tomorrow I'll pick that one.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

hey, let's have a go. :)

and I'll put a tenner on to win or place

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Each way? You courageous soul.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hey Ceo.

Have you drawn a horse for yourself?

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

I like #2 Buckaroo but fairs fair and I shot

Which I think is another favourite.

[–] anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don’t even know who’s running. Go!
