my ilk? Whoot! I have ilk. Must be coming up in the world then.

so basically you're just misery in a skin suit then eh?
Yes, an "ilk" is a large hoofed animal, akin to caribou, and domesticable. Thus, when someone speaks of "and your ilk," they are essentially saying "and the horse you rode in on."

I think you may have confused that with Elk. hmmmmm, elk. Haven't had a elk in awhile...

I also haven't been out riding in a long time...nearly a year actually. Miss the smell of horses...

I'm just glad he didn't try to tie me into his ilk. Ick!

I smell the buggers every day. Ungrateful creatures.
