Shorty is the ghost of a horse that died horribly of overeating. (See People who Didn't Post To Don't Post) There was a thread that was supposed to be Shorty's dinner. It was labeled "Don't Post To This Thread" and was intended to fall quickly down through the forum and shorty was gonna eat it for dinner. Unfortunately, so many people posted to it that by the time Shorty ate it it was huge! Shorty was famished, having waited so long while people delayed its dinner by loading it up with posts. When it finally fell, Shorty ate the whole thing. It was a sad day for all.
