why would a horse run amok just because the man is distracted?
or is it funny because the horse too got distracted by the writing?
i don't get it
I think the joke is, it's the 17th century equivalent of texting and driving.
But the 17th century self-driving function actually worked, though.
So what you're saying is Elon needs to attach a horse to every Tesla to make them self-driving?

This is deep
So is that horse and buggy, now
I thought that was obvious, but yes absolutely.
How did Charles even get the note from Jill? Did he purposely wait until he was driving to write his? How did he intend to send her his reply, was he perhaps driving over to her place to hand it over in person? Then why write it in the first place, and not just tell her!
I call shenanigans.
This documentary stinks
He had carrier pigeons in the carriage ..... Charles ain't dumb or poor.
Yeah they called Wi and Fi.
Ohh, it's supposed to be Jill. So my approach that the horse was simply homophobic doesn't work anymore.
It’s just a silly anachronistic texting while driving joke. Of course a horse wouldn’t ride off a bridge in real life when someone is writing a letter. But a car would if someone is texting.
It's not because the driver is texting (distracted), but for some reason it got scared or confused, and because it lacked the control of the carriage driver, it took a wrong turn.
Horses aren’t stupid. Many a drunken cowboy made it home safely thanks to his trusty steed. But! Cartoon horses are stupid, much like cartoon humans.
They are not without intelligence, but they are still stupid compared to humans. They are also easily scared, and when they are they behave erratically.
But I changed the text to omit that part completely. Because somehow it seems to offend people?
Run amok or not, I don’t understand how it got so sideways on that narrow bridge.
It wouldn't, that's part of the joke
