Horses vs. Husbands?

GOOD THINGS ABOUT HUSBANDS

  1. Husbands are less expensive to shoe than horses.
  2. Feeding a husband doesn’t require anything that even mildly compares with the hassle of putting up hay.
  3. A lame husband can still work.
  4. A husband with a bellyache doesn’t have to be walked.
  5. Husbands are better able to understand puns.
  6. If husbands are playing hard to catch, you may be able to run them down on foot.
  7. Husbands usually pay their own bills.
  8. Husbands apologize when they step on your toes.
  9. Husbands seldom refuse to get into the vehicle.
  10. Husbands don’t panic, running and yelling, when you leave them alone (unless you leave the kids with them too!).
  11. For a nominal fee, you can hire someone else to clip a husband.
  12. Husbands don’t like the lady next door just as well as you because she fed them for 3 days straight.

GOOD THINGS ABOUT HORSES

  1. If horses don’t work out, you can sell them.
  2. Horses don’t come with in-laws.
  3. You don’t have to worry about your children looking like your horse.
  4. You never have to iron saddle pads.
  5. If you get too fat for your horse, you can shop for a bigger one.
  6. Horses smell good when they sweat.
  7. You can repair horse “clothes” with duct tape.
  8. It’s possible to keep horses from jumping the fence.
  9. You can force horses to stay in good physical condition, with a whip if necessary.
  10. Horses don’t want their turn at the computer.
  11. Horses may turn white with age, but they never go bald.
  12. Horses don’t care what you look like, as long as you have a carrot.

GOOD THINGS ABOUT HUSBANDS

  1. Husbands are less expensive to shoe than horses.
    Not true in my case, hubby needs specific shoes with sufficient ankle support

  2. Feeding a husband doesn’t require anything that even mildly compares with the hassle of putting up hay.
    Wanna bet? Take my husband for a week.

  3. A lame husband can still work.
    Usually yes, but after extensive ankle surgery hubby was unable to walk, much less work, for 6 months.

A few more good things about husbands
1 A horse won’t tuck you in just right, hand you your cat, and kiss both of you goodnight
2 a horse won’t run out to buy you tampons and be wise enough to also buy a pint of your favorite ice cream and a fun magazine
3 Horses never buy you flowers or jewelry
4 A horse won’t buy you a backup of your favorite body wash, moisturizer, etc when he notices you’re running low
6 A horse won’t set up the coffepot for you

LOL Duffy, I am lucky I forgot to mention he even goes grocery shopping with me, unloads the car, and helps me put everything away. I still can’t get him to put clothes in the hamper though. Next to, on top of, under, but not in

lol!

Why can’t my horse just be normal??

LOL very good!

There may be some divorcees in the crowd that would argue this point.

Great list!
