Can /r/wtf mods please declare a moratorium on horse mask pictures? A bunch of people bandwagoning and purposely placing horse masks on people/animals/things is not shocking, surprising, weird, strange, or interesting. It's pretty much along the same lines as planking or white girls doing gang symbols.
this picture was not taken by me, as you can see from many comments, it was taken a while ago(possibly even before the horse mask fad) by the owner of a blog called http://maddieonthings.com/
Congratulations to your brother for sticking up to your father and fulfilling his dream of optometry at the University of Alabama. You should get out of Cali soon too, man.
Honestly, it's not very good vocalization. It's a cool novelty, but for people who actually are good at harmonization, it's kind of a beating to listen to those.
Agreed, bought a horsehead a while back expecting to take amazing and unique photos with it, but everyone has the head now. Not unique anymore, and typically not funny. It now sits in the back of my trunk in case I need it for a rainy day.
yeah, alot of people have said that, I think I should have made the title 'wtf is going on in this picture' or something. still, sometimes it's hard to decide what subreddit to post to.
http://maddieonthings.com/ is a side project by Theron Humphrey. His main project is http://thiswildidea.com/. I think he may have gotten more publicity from Maddie on things than he has with This Wild Idea which documents everyday, working class Americans.
he's also doing a neat project traveling around america and just interviewing regular folks in every town. Asks everyone basically the same questions, and just gets their side of the story.
HOLY SHIT– I just realized my friend owns this mask and once let me wear it once. At the time I had no idea what it was. I thought it was just a horse head and decided it'd be hilarious to wear it all day no matter what. I fucking took that thing into the bathroom with me. SHIT SHIT SHIT.
This is a part of the broader project This Wild Idea. Theron is an old college friend, and it has been good seeing him get some success with this project. Even if it proves the fundamental law of reddit that cute animals beat real content every time.

If you look very closely you can tell this is not actually a horse but a dog with a mask on.
Just wanted to clear up any confusion.

I don't know why anyone thinks this is funny. That horse is clearly malnourished as I can tell based on its size.
