Similar Tastes

The "rampant" pose has several meanings in traditional heraldry. I wouldn't call any of them creepy.

And if more people accepted pony hugs, the world would know peace.

@Dan
This autism never disappoints.

@Finn123 And irrational hatred has no end.

@sinarby Hatred is a strong word.

@Finn123 So is autism, yet you seem to have no problem using it in any way you please.

@sinarby
I don't see anything hateful about that though.

SATW has a high concentration of genuinely autistic people anyway, some of which I know more personally at this point, none of which would get worked up about my usage of the word autism.

What are you, an offendatron?

@Finn123 Sure, certain people with autism might not get offended. Heck, I'm autistic, and I'm not necessarily offended by your use of the word. It's more that you seem to think that in order to like a certain thing, you have to have autism. The two have no link. I know it was a joke, but still, I'm sick of that stupid stereotype.

@sinarby
Stereotypes have a seed of truth, not all autists like stuff like that but self proclaimed autists
are generally overrepresented in those groups. Well, and on this site in general.

@Finn123 Sometimes, Stereotypes have a seed of truth, but most of the time, there may have been just one individual it was based on, or (such as that of MLP fans) it may have been just made up by people's assumptions of how those people must be like.

@sinarby
Having actually been involved with mlp fandom at some point there's definitely an overrepresentation of autists in that group.

@Dan Pony hug to you too!

Meanwhile, America has the Blue Mustang (also known as Blucifer), at the Denver International Airport... Denmark would probably find that creepy too... No idea why.

No idea at all...

@Lichruler I looked it up earlier - didn't that thing kill its creator?

@Epi Yup.

@Lichruler Well, I don't want to complain, but the way it looks at you makes me want to run away D:
I am happy fire isn't part of the display... It would certainly give the vibes of a hell horse >.<

@CannedTuna They should add fire and use it as a stage for a metal concert.

@Lichruler
OMG!!! I love it!!

It looks cool.

Blucifer the demon horse greets visitors to Denver in the US. It also killed its creator so it may be haunted.

@Kummerspeck We love Blucifer in Denver. He's our local demon protector.
He's not the only big blue creature in Denver we also have Big Blue Bear. As far as I know Big Blue Bear has never killed anyone. https://www.roadsideamerica.com/tip/11827

@Kummerspeck huh, your Avatar fits this comment well!

"I assume they were inspired by the creepy demon horse at the American airport?"

I think Humon was talking about this beauty


Blue Mustang nicknamed "Blucifer" It's in Denver Colorado

honestly, I think it's just coincidence, though that would be cool if Faroes Island was inspired by it was but I'm not holding my breath

edit from my research it seems to be inspired by the Nix

@AmericanButterfly omfg i love it TT <3

Welcome Horse
Welcome Horse
Welcome Horse

He greets across the Nordic nation
The thoroughbred of sin
He got the vista application
That you just sent in

It needs evaluation
So let the games begin
A heinous crime, a show of force
A murder would be nice of course...

@IsabellaFelipe Thank you Dr. Horrible!

@IsabellaFelipe This made me laugh so hard! XD

reminds me of when me and my dad went to Denver to see my cousins and his sister. when we got there I saw Blucifer, as I hear it's called, and while my dad looked terrified, I was all 'HORSEY HORSEY' and jumping up and down.

As a resident of Denver, I sincerely apologize if Blucifer inspired anyone to do anything.

@BethMit Unless of course if Blucifer inspired someone to do something awesome and metal like making a horse statue from metal and stone.

@Rogers Well there is a kinda cool looking on a in park in Bucharest called "Horse of the titans".

http://blogdebucuresti.ro/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/calul-titanilor.jpg

have you seen our Kelpies? (Scotland). They're 30 metres tall - and that's just the heads

@Wolfette Impressive and very cool looking.

@Wolfette Nice!

"Nykurin"
A legend talks about Nykur (Nix), a scary creature that lives in lakes and often resembles a beautiful horse. It is easily identified by its grey colour and backwards hooves, It lures people close, grabs them and pulls them to the bottom of the lake. Once upon a time, children had gone to play by the lake. Nykur came to them in the shape of a horse and they climbed on its back to play. The smallest boy, who could not get up on Nykur, was frightened and called out to his brother, Niklas: “Brother Nika” (he had not learned to talk yet). Nykur, thinking his name was called, lost its power and disappeared, and the children were saved. Nykur loses all its power when called by name.

@Brumman Sounds similar to Bäckahästen, they probably share the same origin.

@Highgrove

Yes, this is definetly the same creature we call "Bäckahästen" in Swedish.

@Brumman we have a legend here in iceland that is almost the same

@Brumman We have something similar in Iceland, but in our version if you say any word starting with N it will jump into the water.

now kiss.

@Neokroy *clap* *clap* indeed *clap* *clap*
