First one I want to add is that they think you can just get on a horse and gallop away...

Two words, yeeeeeeeaaaah right ;)

When they call rugs coats

People who say "all you do is sit there"

My boyfriend basically said this the other day. All I could do was keep myself from cracking up and dying from laughter. I mean..at least he wants to get on one, right? Lol
My brother constantly gives me the, "all you do is sit there" comment. I'm sorry, but if you weren't too scared to get on one, you'd find out that it's not as easy as you think.(:
My friend and I got quite a few questions and comments when we were discussing sheath cleaning in class one day, haha. "You have to touch..'IT'!?!" We always got a great laugh out of that one. :p
I probably have a lot more..but I'm grabbing at blanks at the moment.

When someone asks what sport I play, I say I ride horses. A few times I have gotten "Ohh, so you like RACE them?" as a response :)

"Riding is not exercise."

You know, at one point, I thought this. Then, after my first hardcore training session with my first horse (All on saddle) I was SO sore the next day. Changed my opinion right away.

"It's not a sport."

It costs how much?!!!
