There's a pretty big difference between riding horses and pigs. Pigs aren't even strong enough to carry around grown ass humans, and they certainly haven't been accustomed to having people on them. Because you know that is a thing you have to do with horses too, right? You can't just climb on the back of whatever random horse and expect it to carry you around, it will freak the fuck out.

You obviously know nothing about swine. Having grown up on a farm, I will tell you that pigs are one of the strongest fucking animals in creation pound for pound. They can carry things just fine, especially given their low center of gravity. As far as your point on horses, you're right: They have to be trained. But so would any other domesticated animal (e.g., pigs). So not to be too punny or anything, but get off your high horse and do some reading.

They're not built for it. Having grown up with a veterinarian working with animal abuse, I can certainly tell you that. Oh, and really, are you saying that pig was trained for riding before they got drunk and decided it would make a great video? How big do you think that those chances are?

And the chances that you know more about animals than I do because you "grew up with a veterinarian?" Try growing up on a farm where everybody becomes a vet by experience. Saying that what you saw in that .gif was "animal abuse" is fucking laughable at best. You wanna see some animal abuse? I'll PM you some links if you'd like.

100% if they were shouting drunk science

No, you do not become anything like a vet by experience from growing up on a farm, not any more than I can claim to be one from growing up with pets. And no, "there are worse kinds of abuse" is not an argument. So what if it's less bad in comparison? It's still abuse and mistreatment of animals.

Calm the fuck down. This is not the time or place for flame wars. Want to argue? Do it by PM.

Play nicely, guys. I don't see it as being a grievous form of abuse, but yeah we probably shouldn't saddle up the nearest hog pen for our porcine cavalry.

What about bears? Is riding bears still cool? *fingers crossed*

[Loud Whispers]

I think if they're trained enough not to maul your face off on sight, they're tame enough to ride.

Never, just no, no matter how trained.

What if the bears are wearing armor?

I think it is patently ridiculous to suggest that any of us would ever do anything like that ever.

On a totally unrelated note, a google search for Proscillitating Glagnorxes returns my post on Aliens in the sad thread as the only result.

I'd've thought it'd be harder than that to invent a word.
