Why do people want to own cobs?

To all the offended poster on this thread, you all need to take a chill pill and lighten up. You would be surprised how many of the offending posts have been made by cob owners of a variety of sizes. Im skinny with sports cob who is definitely not fat or slow. But i have enjoyed and laughed at some of the derogatory posts as they are FUN.

???????

That's a bit of an oxymoron.:p
 
Sports cob was tongue in cheek like the thread! Now if you would excuse me i must rush off and care for my high maintenance cob, oh wait he is happily living out with no rugs on :-D

I hope i can get to enjoy my ride on him today without having to babysit some of the finer horses and their too sacred to feed them owners!

Sooo - non cobs are high maintenance, and can't live out with no rugs on?

Sure?

I think there might be something wrong with my cob, he doesn't do the baby sitting he has to hide behind a part arab 14hh mare when scary things happen, he is very chunky 15.2hh!! Do you think he may have a TB brain?? :D
 
I cant believe this thread!! Cob, TB, Warmblood or whatever......they all have their pros and cons like any other horses!!!! If you single out different breeds for slating the. you don't like horses very much or deserve to have them. And as for the " tounge In cheek" spin on things.....put it this way, it doesn't sound like some of the comments really are ment in that way.

This thread is not for the the senestive .
 
Im not sensitive at all. Just think that if this is what passes for entertainment then its pretty sad!!! I only read the first few pages before i got bored of people trying to outdo each others insults.
 
And i thought the point of fourms were to help each other out with advice ect... not to bitch and wind people up for someones own petty entertainment!!!!

You really need to read the rest. You've missed so many of the truly exceptional insults...
 
Auslander, i haven't got time to read them!! It may seem strange to the people on here who clearly do have too much time on their hands!!!

Also, i cant be arsed lol.
 
They could have at the very least got a matching cloth... tsk! Cob owners haven't a clue!!!!

😄
 
I am a cob owner, I have not been offended by any comments on here at all. Obviously owning a cob makes you completely insensitive to insults, maybe that's an advantage according to some posters.:D:D
 
Omg, cc darling, you are not supposed to actually admit that you have one!!!!!!!!! 😧

Shhhhhh..... 🙊
 
I reckon you did it deliberately to upset the dressage divas!

No it's definatly trend setting , next you plait the purple strips and bind specially made pandora type things( these will be marketed as cob charms ) made by cobsrus inc , range coming soon to a tack shop near you ,also aviable teeth protectors for when the mane hits you in the mouth while cantering .

I feel a bit sick.

My new trimmers arrived today - I feel an urge to go and remove every extraneous bit of hair from Alf, so he won't look like a slightly stretched cob any more.

Gulp... they could take off you know... that's all we need. Jangly jingly cobs trotting about causing musical earthquakes wherever they may go...
