While everybody is laughing at the meme, hundreds (if not thousands) of horses are killed every year simply because they cannot race or are not profitable, many as young as two years old. https://horseracingwrongs.org/

To mention nothing of other cruel practices, among these forced separation from their mothers, nose chains, blinders, whips, over breeding, etc.

Breeding these animals is not funny, it is not a joke, and these breeders are awful people.

spent the weekend playing horsey game, if I was rich I would definitely be part of the problem.

::: spoiler Title Rather than breeding horses for winning, I began a breeding line just for weight to sell for glue.

Ended up with a breed of 3000lbs zebra with heads instead of legs to sell to the glue factory. :::

iirc the horse names must be unique and may not contain numbers and stuff. And since virtually all real names are taken, random words are all that is left. (that doesnt explain this name though)

This horse's name is a combination of its parents names for the reason you described. It was 100% intentional and I would bet the breeders are laughing.

no numbers "and stuff"

Someone ought to ask Cynthia M. Masters a couple fucking questions.

I think they get a kick out of hearing the horse race announcer say the names.

“KidslookinTouchable in front!”

Average YouTuber patreon wanting their name to be said at the end of a video.

Got a cousin who works with horses and horse breeding and all that jazz.

Likely that this name is just a portmanteau of the mare and sire of this particular horse.

Still someone put those names together, read the result and thought "that sounds good".

Oh yeah. It’s still an insane name. But horse tradition is weird and it shows genealogy to those in the know.

Yeah, sire is Kids Classic Style and mare was Lookin Touchable

I... fuckin...

One of the grandparents was "TOUCHDOWN KID" and the other "LOOKIN GOOD MR". From that the mother was "LOOKIN TOUCHABLE" for some god awful, unknown reason. The other side also made a similar blunder with a less "sensical" process.

"KID CLU" and "TOOTSY ROLLS REDFORD" are OK names I guess , but for some reason, they called the child "KIDS CLASSIC STYLE" which, IDK, could be ok? But then why combine them in such an awful way? Also, "Lookin Classic (Style)" would be a WAY BETTER NAME

Well then someone needs to answer for Lookin Touchable

Her grandmother/sisterwife was QuiteaLooker and her dad^3 was UncleTouchy.

Lookin Style was right there. 😭

Lookin in Style was later taken by one of their 7 siblings

Yea, and its probably the best option given TouchableKidslookin.

LookinTouchable, Kids.

Epstein's horse (too soon?)

  1. Jeez his face looks derpy
  2. It's weird that the name has no spaces, but whatever, "kid's lookin' untouchable" seems par for the course for stupid horse names
  3. I bet in a couple of years some japanese game will turn this into a waifu.
  4. *reads comments, looks at name closer*
  5. What the FUC-
