It Was So Good.

I am so ashamed... I have never heard of these people...

Might not be a very well known expression I guess. But if one sheds 'crocodile-tears' that person is faking pity concerning a tragic event that afflicts others.

Haven't given the answer to the 'crocodile-tears Q' yet, so here it goes.
As meant in the verb, crying crocodile-tears means faking pity (not giving a rat's ass about the tragedy at hand, but pretending to do so).

This comes from the fact that a crocodile's jaw muscles squeeze down on it's tear glands, making it shed tears as it bites down on a prey. Rather ironic, I must say.

Cow-tipping!

Is it possible, considering it is one dude trying to tip a cow without any help (and no contraptions)?

No.

I agree.. I think it is impossible.. cow's are known to sleep laying down for starters. They can weigh anything up to about 2,000 lbs.. they also are in herds and for the protection of the herd from predators not all the cows sleep at the same time.. this would mean that a person would have to be incredably stealthy to sneek up on a cow and not alert the rest of the herd.. Cows also have much better eye sight, hearing and sence of smell than humans.. they also only sleep for a short time and are very light sleepers again for protection from perdators.

Even if it was was a lone cow, it wouldn't be possible. Cows are indeed just too damn heavy. You would just piss it off!
And beside the better senses, cows can also run faster then humans. I've been chased by a angry cow once and I made it over a fence in the nick of time. One hell of an adrenaline-rush that was!

.... OK next question..

WHY THE HELL where you being chased by a cow ?

A friend of mine tried to tip it!
He had a beer to many and was too noisy, and didn't even got to touch the cow. But his presence alone was enough to make the cow go beserk and the beast chased us around the field.

😆

I would love to have seen that.

We laughed about it later too, but the event itself was very scary!
A cow becomes a whole different animal to you when it is trashing the ground just a meter behind you. And damn can those things run!

😂

A friend of mine rides horse's.. and she chased another friend of mine before.. 😂 was so funny.

Horses are even worse! We participated in a police exercise some time ago, in which we acted as rioters and the cops had to put a stop to it.
They used horses on us as well, they can be very intimidating indeed.
One of us got slammed by a horse's hip and was literary launched!

I know 😂

He only out ran it because he kept swerving his run in and out.

That sounds intense ✅

Horses can be monsters if the one riding them commands it. Expecially cop horses!

No doubt about it.

Now for something weirder;
William Shatner once had one of his kidney stones auctioned.
Take a guess on the amount of money that was paid for it!

$30

Not even remotely close! Remember, it was a genuine William 'Captain Kirk' Shatner peed-out marble.

$20
