Indeed, Facebook is fast closing in on Craigslist in terms of cray-cray ads. Here’s another feat of completely unnecessary derring-do:
———-
Another Facebook ad from Julia: “Who knew horses needed to do equations? Seems like a calculator would be cheaper.”
———-
From Cat: “Here’s an ad that had me a bit confused. Maybe she’s an appendix?”

Melanie writes, “Stumbled across this gem on Facebook today. First she mentions that she’s trained the horse to rear, which is always a red flag in my books. Then she later says he doesn’t rear? But the photo clearly shows him rearing. Which one is it?”

And last not but least, some “magical horse poop” from Angel:
Magical Horse Poop (horse manure) Free! (Argyle/Denton)
Why fertilize your garden with just any horse manure, when you can come to our place in Argyle and get superior quality horse waste free for the taking!
Why do we consider our horse manure magical? Because it’s produced daily by our special “magical” therapy horses at New Hope Equine Therapy in Argyle, Texas. These horses receive a diet of the highest quality coastal hay and Purina feeds, that they exactingly post-process into our raw product. We then age the manure up to 3 day’s in a “free range” paddock environment before it’s lovingly hand scooped and added to our compost heap. This manure is seasoned with just the right amount of additional dirt, grass and leaves at NO additional charge.
Why is this superior product being given away free? It’s just our way of giving back to the gardening community… we’re a fan of beautiful flora and fauna, and feel it would be unfair to keep all this good stuff to ourselves. But… it’s only free if you load it yourself. If you need us to load a trailer or pickup bed with my tractor, we charge $20. And we are a non-profit organization, so donations are always greatly appreciated.
Even if you don’t need our “magical” horse poop for your garden, you’ll find it has a multitude of uses.
– Politicians can use it in their political campaigns!
– Makes a great potpourri for Cowboy/Cowgirl “wanna be’s”
– Smear it on your boots to get that sexy “just walked in a pasture” aroma
– Great stocking stuffer for your least favorite niece/nephew or mother-in-law
– Some Texas football coaches have been known to use this as a Game Day brain substitute (not a recommended application)
Pickup by appointment only. Reply to this email ad or text to arrange pickup.
