Well if a fight with a bunch of duck sized horses goes bad, you could easily run away (briskly walk even).  If a duck is two hands high vs a horse which might be 16 hands (for a thoroughbred say), then presumably a duck sized horse will run 1/8th of 48 kph (the upper average galloping speed of a full sized horse) or 6kph (a bit under 4 mph).

 

Of course you must consider that when fighting horses you are fighting somewhat intelligent beasts, albeit little ones, however when fighting a horse sized duck you are really still only dealing with a big bird brain.

no in my mini horse scenario the mini horses can run as fast as normal horses.

1 horse sized duck. Ducks are soft and even a giant one I think a few good kicks will take it down. A bunch of 3-4 lb horses could do a lot of damage assuming they are working together.

Plus think of the feast you could have after taking out that duck.

I'm on a boat and, it's going fast and I got a nautical themed Pashmina Afghan

I once sliced my kid's finger by mistake cutting his nails with a nail clipper when he was like 3 months old so for the next year I just cut his nails by biting them because I was scared to use the clippers again lol. I eventually got over it.  

And by "I eventually got over it" what I really mean is I just make my wife do it now.

I’d just get more sand and cover it all in sand then have a sand bed. 

I actually agree with Doc on this. Sleeping entirely on sand is nice.

I think I'll just give my overall thoughts on the book rather than follow the question structure here. Minor spoilers in the hidden part.

Pineapple juice ftw 

Never been to the opera but I’ve been to the ballet a few times and was actually in the cast of The Nutcracker once as a kid. 

I have one of those tempurpedic pillows and it's excellent

I could also imagine it similar to this scenario:

Jokes on you maybe I live exactly on the equator

This is an interesting one. I think I'm with Ben though I'll take the steps. It'll encourage me to work out more, I'll get one of those treadmill desks, all that stuff. If I can average 20k steps a day I'm making an extra $219k per year. That'll be my goal.

 Not 100% sure but i don’t drink it often. 

The Puppy Bowl is of course the best part

I like decimals but the issue is I once had to write pi as an answer in high school and I’m still not finished. 

If you don’t take it out at 1 second when you have the chance you are a maniac. 

I have no idea what any of these things mean.

ETA: looking at your link I apparently do the lateral tripod.

I’m the same as Who Me. I go through them all first thing in the morning and delete probably 85% without looking at them. I also filter the spam/promotions and delete all of those without looking at them. 

This is a great topic lol. I think I'll go for the Wild West. I'd probably die or go to jail pretty quickly but I'd get to live out my cowboy dreams for awhile at least. 

-40F because if I’m measuring in Celsius that means I could be in Canada and I don’t want to take that chance. 

Warm

Risk/reward I’ll take the $1000 every time. Plus I’d almost certainly find it within 6 hours unless I was out of town or something. 

Always 5/5
