In Paris this week, he said: “I am interested in the horses that dance and I want to give them some carrots and apples … make sure they’re fed before they do their thang.”
Stewart explained the pair’s dressage plan.
“Snoop called me and said he knows I know horses, and he’s a little fearful of horses,” the businesswoman, philanthropist and octogenarian Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover model told NBC on Friday.
“I’m still scared of horses,” Snoop said.
“Have you ever ridden a horse?” Stewart asked.
“No,” said Snoop. “I’m scared.”
“So we’re gonna do dressage,” Stewart said.
This is so lovely and heartwarming that I almost didn’t notice that Snoop’s wearing knee high spats
EPILOGUE
He got to meet the horses!!
He even got to feed them carrots like he wanted to, even though he seems to be nervous! Such courage and valor! /Gen!
This is clearly the coolest day of that white guy’s life. It’s the coolest day of the horse’s life. This is the coolest day of all of our lives. Mr Dogg, thank you for being who you are.
Can we just take a sec to also thank Mr. Snoop Dog for saying that he was scared to do something and called a friend to help him. And then did the scary thing. I think that admitting you’re scared of something takes courage and inner strength.
It’s really important when you’re at work to go out there and really give it your 60%. Maybe 35%.
One time my boss told a whole story about how if a person who made parachutes didn’t give their job 100%, people would die.
I made the point that
There’s probably a whole quality and compliance process for parachute assembly and it’s not just one bloke in a factory making and distributing them.
We get a 30 minute lunch break and no company benefits.
We don’t make parachutes.
I had a disciplinary meeting and then went back to giving them as much as they gave me.
No one died.
There’s something all us old heads tell to new hires: Hard work is rewarded with more work.
Don’t kill yourself for a company that’ll gladly replace you by week’s end
Some of the wisdom shared over in the Ask A Manager comments is that when you start a new job you should give it about 60 %, not more.
You will have good results and get through the trial period, but you won’t exhaust yourself and burn out, you won’t set up your coworkers to look bad in comparison if they simply can’t go as fast as you and, very crucially, when you hit a rough spot in your life you will have automatic leeway built in and not fall behind and have people jump down your throat when you feel like shit.
I wanna highlight these tags from @jeannetterankin because yes- this is exactly where I was going with this
did i tell u guys i got into an argument on twitter bc i said foxes are dogs and someone tried to bring up their actual fuckin. classification or whatever and i just said “foxes are dogs cause they are fluffye” and they kept arguing with me. the entire time i was like “you will not survive the immigration to tumblr you are lucky we are not there right now”
This is especially funny because they aren’t even right. Foxes *ARE* dogs.
when a pelican bites you there’s no malice in their eyes. they aren’t upset at you. they are just hungry and want to see if you fit in their mouths. and if you don’t then it’s no problem and everything is fine. and if you do then well i guess your fate is sealed but that’s ok it’s a beautiful animal
Okay, see, I knew about the capybara gif:
But I didn’t know that they really are That Dense, All The Time. The same way sharks will bite anything that might be a seal, just in case, these birdbrains will apparently test just about anything for beak size.
