They give us milk, butter, cheese, meat, leather, comedy, and economic destruction. I can’t think of a cooler animal in the whole of creation.
I like cows.

Twisty and I had a conversation about cows the other day, I would be a Highland Cow, with a shaggy orange fringe and big horns, and Twisty would be a Jersey Bull…
If you were a cow, what type of cow would you be?
When I worked in a children’s publishing house, another editor in a different, non-fiction imprint was on a secret personal crusade to include a cow in every book he worked on.
This proved to be a real challenge, since they published many biographies. I think his proudest accomplishment was finding a photo of a young Jacqueline Bouvier with a cow.
Their Jackie Onassis biography had a cow in it!
Alas!
I miss the Doper named imthecowgodmoo.
He would have loved this thread.
They had a contest a couple years ago in Switzerland. Who could paint the best cow, I think it was. Somebody showed me pictures. Afterward, they took 100s of these full-sized cows and put them all over the place: roofs, sidewalks, stores, balconies. The Swiss are a little odd, but at least they have proper respect.
I thought of him when I saw the thread title. What happened to him? The name always made me chuckle a bit.
Gotta love the arrogant worms…
I kind of like this cow or rather bull (the smallest in the world according to Swedish newspapers).
I waver between considering cows intrinsically funny (cf. Gary Larson) or somehow chillingly evil.
I loooooooove cows. I so desperately want CowParade to come to Boston.
I like cows because they are the only animals who dont take it upon themselves to either bite, chase, trample upon, attempt to make love to me.

Cow go “ork.” Make funny face.
They did this in Calgary and Edmonton too… it was used as a fundraiser for some charity, the cows were auctioned off after being displayed. Some can still be found around… one in Calgary is still at Chinook mall I believe near the Time Capsule… and one is in Edmonton near one of the hotels uhm -thinks- Jasper and 106th or 107th something like that.
Question:
Why could the small cow get under the fence, but not the small horse?
Answer:
Because the small cow was a little lower.
Cows is cool.
I grew up on a Dairy farm (next to actually but I was paid to help out during childhood) and the cows all seemed to be very relaxed. I mean they are locked in a stall virtually all winter long when it’s cold to go outside, and they never seem to get upset about it. Sometimes during milking they’ll try and kick - but if some guy came up and started playing with my breasts, I’d get pretty upset myself.
I guess they figure “So I’m locked up, but I get fed everyday without fail and never have to worry about food…I also get nailed by a bull once a year or so and that bull has had plenty of experience so I don’t have it so bad”.
Some cows are artificially inseminated, those cows get the shaft I suppose - no pun intended.
Anyhow, the long and short of it is, I like cows too…they always seem relaxed.
