A Giant Longhorn Named Tex Accidentally Popped His Ball And It's Super Sad

Mannnnnnnnnnnnn. That was much sadder than I anticipated it being. How sad can a giant longhorn popping his favorite ball on a barbed wire fence be? Super fucking sad apparently. That was sadder than when Chuck watched Wilson float away in the ocean. Tex loved that ball man. It was more than a ball to him, that ball was his one and only friend in the world.

Good news though

That makes me feel a little bit better. The new ball won’t be the same as the old ball because there’s only one red rubber ball but as long as Tex is happy, I’m happy.

While we’re here, it seems we’re greatly underestimating how awesome it’d be to have a longhorn pet. Tex looked like an absolute delight to have as an animal pal. We might need to widen our scope for what makes a good pet. Right now my scope sits at just dogs, not even cats because they are furry standoffish devils, just dogs. But now I want a giant longhorn as a pet. Maybe not while I’m living in New York City because space is hard to come by in my apartment but, if I ever move back to Iowa one day, I’m for sure looking into a longhorn.
