You see a cow every day of your life
 
This is starting to annoy me -

Someone told me an interesting stat:- you see a cow every day of your life. Maybe a real one, maybe an image, figurine, toy, carton of milk, or something related like a cow print -whatever.

Now I can't live my life without trying not to see cows. I buy milk that has a tractor on it instead of a cow or cowprint.

I live in London for gods sake. There shouldn't be this many cows around.

Now that you know this you will have to tell everyone you know to pass on the mental torture. How many cows have you seen today...?

TM875 11-29-2004 01:55 PM

I live near Lancaster, PA. There's goddam cows in the streets, in the fields, on the milk, on the cheese, on...everything. We're just cow crazy.



Damn those Amish.

... half an hour into my day and I've just seen a water buffalo, I wonder if that counts? (It was on the cover of a book.)

Coppertop 11-29-2004 02:03 PM

Never heard of this before but I'm sure to keep a lookout now. Half a block from my parent's home in San Jose there are some cows on a farm. I'm sure they see them all the time. Go figure.

paulskinback 11-29-2004 02:10 PM

If you live on or near a farm I guess it doesn't really work for obvious reasons, but I live in a city of 7.5 million people, rarely venture to the countryside, and therefore don't expect to see that many cows.

I got a birthday card with a stamp with a cow on it for instance...

Are the cows trying to tell me something

the_marq 11-29-2004 02:11 PM

I have a painting on my desk of a Pig (Autobahn Sau), but I don't think I have seen any cows today.

When I had surgery on my elbow this summer, I woke up, at six, (no breakfast, no milk cartons), went to the out-paitient dealy while it was still dark out...had surgery, went home, took some meds, and slept the rest of the day through the night.

On that day im 100% sure I saw no cows.

(and probably countless other times)

CinnamonGirl 11-29-2004 03:26 PM

No cows today (yet), but there was the "MOOOOO" license plate...

radioguy 11-29-2004 03:34 PM

i bet that can relate to almost anything.

i bet you see a pig today, or a frog, or a turtle.

the cow thing is interesting though, i do see a cow everyday. i drive by a pasture on the way to work.

Mephisto2 11-29-2004 04:05 PM

What ever happened to the "Funny things TFPers have said" thread?

This line deserves to be there...

I had to think about it a bit, but I don't think I saw one today 'til now.

bermuDa 11-29-2004 06:02 PM

i wore a leather jacket today, does that count?

Blackthorn 11-29-2004 06:11 PM

I pass a field full of cows on my way to work every single day. On days I don't go to work I still go by them but it's usually when foraging for beer. :D

maleficent 11-29-2004 06:38 PM

Dammit -- I hadn't seen a cow all day - then Freman has to post that picture- -I've now seen a cow... hmmmm.... odd...

Ishmal 11-29-2004 06:46 PM

LOL. i see a cow everyday on the milk carton at the shop i stop at on the way to work... i guess i'll have to try harder not to.

Damn those Amish.

I go for drives around Amish country, and hit a lot of country roads with cows.

PA certainly has cow representation. :)

animosity 11-29-2004 07:12 PM

I have some in my back yard.... but i had not seen any today until fremens post...

Suave 11-29-2004 07:20 PM

I'll bet Stevie Wonder hasn't seen any cows lately.

MSD 11-29-2004 07:28 PM

I downloaded a picture of a guy in a banana suit kicking a guy in a cow suit today.

combatmedicjen 11-29-2004 07:56 PM

I have cow ornaments and stuffed cows all over this house! I even have a cow on my keychain that moos "Deck the Halls" when you squeeze it :D

Lockjaw 11-29-2004 09:11 PM

Yeah I heard this one about 4 years back passed it on to my family and for like a month straight none of us ever went a day without seeing one. But one fateful day even while looking for a cow...never saw one. Drove to work. came home and nothing.
But it's pretty hard not to see any cow in these parts.
Lot's of Texas Longhorn and Houston Texans fans around here. Add into that those stupid Chick Fila ads with the cows it's almost imposible now to go without seeing one.

oblar 11-29-2004 10:22 PM

I go many days without seeing a cow.. It makes me long for the days I used to drive by the cattle fields daily. Although I saw Fremen's picture just a little ways up *grin*

Grancey 11-29-2004 10:34 PM

Yesterday, I bought a cow figurine soap dispenser that moooos when you push on the soap dispensing handle....it's a gift for my favorite relative.........

OFKU0 11-29-2004 10:45 PM

Well I don't see cows everyday but I most certainly see beer everyday.

onodrim 11-29-2004 11:50 PM

I live in central Illinois (for school), it's kind of inevitable that I see cows everyday. :p
But this does bring up an interesting point, I'm gonna keep a tally from now on.

moonstrucksoul 11-30-2004 12:09 AM

yeah, come to think of it i can't recall seeing a cow today but, on a normal day I would say I see many cows, and probably many images of cows. It doesn't bother me at all to know that my milk and other dairy products are produced locally.

DJ Happy 11-30-2004 03:37 AM

I married a cow. I'm doomed.

;)

Pip 11-30-2004 04:14 AM

Since we have cows on the milkcartons here, it's probably true. It was especially true this summer when we had the Cow Parade in town. There was cows everywhere!

You think you got a good cow representation, I live in the middle of Wisconsin, the Dairy State. I know a guy that was in the hospital for a week when he hit a cow in his car. Between the cows and the deer the streets just ain't safe!!

mmiller0617 11-30-2004 08:12 AM

In college we used to have cows break loose and come into our yard all of the time. I jumped the deck once and ran after them until thinking that there might be a bull mixed in there too.

Hadn't seen one today until this post though. Damn!!!

KinkyKiwi 11-30-2004 09:38 AM

I have to agree. Haven't seen any cows on my beer!

merkerguitars 11-30-2004 12:15 PM

Kinda not hard to see a cow when you live in Wisconsin...

eagle1 11-30-2004 01:03 PM

Got cows in my backyard......

Guess I really can't have a say in this. ;)

raeanna74 11-30-2004 01:13 PM

I hate to say it but I've seen 3 cow pictures today. I am glad to say it's only because I have lots of kids toys with animals on them or toy animals. This means that of course anything with a farm animal theme pictures a cow somewhere. Otherwise it seems the rest of my house is pretty much cow free. I've not been out of the house today yet so haven't seen any cows outside. If I were though I'm sure I'd see a cow. That's a large part of our bigger industry in Wisconsin - cheese industry must include milk cows. In the past 5 month's 2 cows were even in our news - Got out of their fences and got hit on the roads. There's no escape for me.

yellowchef 11-30-2004 08:46 PM

I LOOOOVE moo cows.

my kitty Spots is black and white, her nickname is moo cow.

shakran 11-30-2004 09:01 PM

I logged into this thread to happilly report having seen no cows today.

I go to school at Virginia Tech, the school smells like cow manure half of the year. You bet that I see my share of cows.

Now that's just mean.

I see things somethings eveyday that are more disturbing that cute little cows.

Destrox 12-01-2004 05:42 AM

Here in PA we have more cows then the all the trailer parks in other states combined. Same goes for pigs.

You cant drive anywhere here (non-interstate roads) w/out passing by a farm. I personally like it.
