Must have fallen asleep in the dark bag. >You name the fluffy pony foal "brisket" >it's barely old enough to be weaned, so you have to feed it from a bottle for the first few days. >You have to get some nutritionally complete fluffy pony milk for it. Apparently they sell the genuine stuff. >"100% fluffy pony milk. Contains no more than 16% growth and production hormones by weight" >jesuschristhowhorrifying.tga   >After a week or two, brisket hasn't grown much at all. He should be much bigger by now. >he's not looking too good either. He doesn't scamper around anymore, he just slowly totters around the bin. >His fluff is starting to fall off in tufts too. >You ain't going to take a one dollar horse to the vet, so you check the brand of fluffy pony milk on the internet. >The reviews are almost all glowing. Most of the bad reviews are complaining about how unethical it is. >Hm, probably not that then. >On a whim, you check the pet store brand you bought brisket from. >Nothing. >Wait, there is one thing. On a russian message board >Some ex-employee laughing about how they irradiate the feeder foals to make sure they don't have any parasites. >You do a little digging and find out it's true. >Brisket was exposed to an extremely fatal blast from an electron beam sterilizer. >You pick him up to comfort him, but even your gentle grasp breaks some of his bones. >Fuck. >You give him one last very gentle hug with both hands and then crush his skull in with your thumb.   >Guess you get what you pay for.
