      I raised a small handful of cows for a bit growing up. Tipping them over never crossed my mind because they’re huge, heavy and strong. You would have to use a tractor or other machinery and that’s just animal abuse at that point.

      I don’t know if it was the same thing, but I grew up hearing that if you mix your drool/saliva before brushing with rice and feed it to chickens, they would die.

          That’s the one. I heard wedding venues started spreading the rice thing because they were sick of cleaning up rice and bird shit all the time.

          I’m guessing the other just got popular for farm kids wanting to fuck with city folk.

    For those who have tipped, you can breathe a big sigh of relief. Per Baby Jesus®, to err is human to forgive is bovine. And either way cows aren’t exactly smart by vertebrate standards.

    I recently came to learn that there are tons and tons of people who do not think cow tipping is real or possible. Having grown up in Dairyland: It’s real, it’s possible and it’s kinda funny being able to so easily knock over something so large.
