Okay but is this seriously a wikiHow image or was it AI generated? wikiHow tells you how to shoot your horse?

Wow that's sad but understandable.

... Why is everyone looking so cheerful in that page? You don't smile when discussing euthanasia or learning about it...

WikiHow had a certain style to it. I love it

Feels a little like an Eldritch corporation that doesn't totally understand humanity, but produces simple guides to existence in a an effort to ease the suffering of our poor squalid souls.

Reminds me of that scene from Fight Club. Apparently everyone on WikiHow is high on concentrated oxygen 😄

That was actually sad to read, even being a hypothetical situation.

Because they don’t have to beat it afterwards? 🤷🏾

What the fuck is wrong with you?

“Beating a dead horse” is an old saying/idiom in the US meaning “that a particular effort is futile, being a waste of time without a positive outcome,” such as flogging/beating a dead horse, which will not compel it to do useful work. Maybe it didn’t land as well I thought it would.

For reals. Those human empathy/nurturing emotions are strong.

Yeah, that's some serious chronic severe lameness 😟

Step 8) ensure that your horse is dead.

This guide is perfect

It's a really grim article but it's goddamn hilarious that it exists. I'm just picturing someone following it step by step without reading the whole thing first. "Okay aim the gun at a point just off the side of the bony ridge, okay..." points gun at blindfolded horse "...now what? Hang on."

I really like this pic earlier in the article where the vet's stethoscope is informing the owner that the horse has a tadpole and is going to turn into a mind flayer 😁

Noooo curse you internet! 😂
