Riding Gangnam Style

Oh viral videos.  How fast you spread.  And how 'what the crap' you can be.  Such is Gangnam Style...


It has ponies, and a carousel, and a gorgeous indoor riding arena, and ... lots of other random, funny, and/or disturbing things totally unrelated to those horse related things I just mentioned.


This mainly being an example...

I think they made PSY dance in the barn aisle during feeding time to get the horses to stare confusedly at him while awaiting their grain.  That one chestnut sabino at 00:27 pulling a Ginger wants their noms naow!

Gangam Style, according to the interwebz, is a song about the style of those who live in the Gangnam area of South Korea, and is comparable to Beverly Hills in the U.S.A.  And it's about sexy ladies.  Apparently.  Just guessing.  The dance also looks like a combination of Men Doing Dressage, and Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy.

If this wasn't random enough, the Bronies got to it.


Now 20% cooler in Rainbow Dash flavor.


So how to react this this?  I suggest Gangnam be considered a new modern style of riding.  And it doesn't even require a horse... or coconuts.

Shirts now available, and I will be having way too much fun coming up with different themed "Styles of Riding" shirts.  After I come up with enough I plan to make a poster combining all of them.



If anyone is interested in purchasing a T-shirt, please contact me through virtualpwnies@gmail.com

Thanks to Heather and Blab for introducing the Gangnam and the MLP versions.
Due to a new job and applying to graduate schools updates will continue to be sporadic!

I'm really sorry. The shirt removed it when I did correct the design to say Gangnam Style. I sadly don't know if I will be able to produce them at this time or in the future. Strangy Zazzle seems to allow people to use Nightmare Before Christmas (Disney) characters in their designs, but Gangnam is a no-no. I'll post an update if something changes. Thanks for enjoying the graphic.

Actually, I was just informed that I may be able to post it as a private item. I'll look into it for you and get back as soon as I can.
