Thought I'd officially into myself :-)

Diebellbluedey · 07-17-2008, 10:34 PM

Dis is me, from Alberta. Hun and I operate a boarding stable in Edmonton, mostly adult pleasure rider oriented. We're pretty laid back people and keep pretty busy. When I'm not working (labourer), spending time with our horses or running, I'm probably in HERE when I should be cleaning the house lol.

I can be a lil off the wall, and might SEEM abrasive/cocky sometimes... it's mostly just me being a smart ***. I like to poke sticks, but I can take it too!!!! lol

A good friend of mine xduckehx is a member here, she told me this is a pretty good site for chillin out. Not much 'snakefacing' goes on here, which is GOOD... There's enough snakefacing going on in the 'real' horse world :-)

As much as our styles and opinions differ, we all love horses and that's why were here.

Now, how do I change my avatar from a 'mug' (a lil old skool Excite Chat humor) to one of my own pics?

hi diebellbluedey,
i am new myself, and sound very much like you LOL LOL LOL.
i am having a lot of trouble understanding some of your terms (not you)
now what does snakefacing mean?
cheers

Diebellbluedey · 07-18-2008, 12:05 AM

I wish I had a pic of a horse sneering, but we call it snakefacing. There were two arab broodmares here for a while, and they kinda inspired the term. When they were saying horsey for [insert acceptable word here], they reminded someone of a snake. So now our barn uses the term for everything if someone is being cranky or argumentative. We have a few inside joke terms I have a bad habit of leaking into my regular convo with normal folk lol.

casper65 · 07-18-2008, 12:31 AM

oh, i get it LOL LOL LOL
thanks for that, it is actually a cool saying, i hope you dont mind me using it too??
let me see,
"oh go snakeface somewhere else"
now is that the appropiate context to use it in?
he he he
i hope so, or i will continue to look like a zit LOL LOL LOL

xduckehx · 07-18-2008, 02:05 AM

LMAO @ casper, That is the right context heheh

Hey Blue, long time no see huh? Welcome aboard finally, sorry it took me so long to send you the link. Hope ya like it, I really love how people VOICE their opinions, not shove them in your face and demand that you agree like other places we've visited lol. The diversity is great, and so are the people! Lot's of knowledge, stories, horses, and people to get to know and learn from, or to share our own info with.
