SATIRE NEWS: Horse Annoyed At All The Year Of The Horse Comments She Getting

WILLOW SPRINGS, IL—Expressing exasperation over the constant Chinese New Year chatter, local thoroughbred Lady Star told reporters Wednesday she was annoyed at all the comments she was getting about the Year of the Horse. “Everyone keeps asking me if I’m excited about it being the Year of the Horse, and I’m like, uh, I guess?” said the 4-year-old mare, who noted that while she understood the well-wishers had positive intentions, she would really prefer to focus on going about her day and eating grass. “No one’s asking the dog if she’s excited about it being the Year of the Horse. I didn’t even know it was Chinese New Year, let alone the Year of the Horse. Feels a little racist if you ask me.” Lady Star added that as a devout Christian, she was slightly uncomfortable with “the whole superstitious” aspect of the celebration.
