I can't afford the ice for the polar bear. Or the fucking glacier mints.

Goats are so last year.

Yak is the new goat.

get 24 chickens instead. Then each one will feed your family for a fortnight, and you can give some of your Safety Netâ„¢ money scrounged from hard-working bankers back to the government.

You're so common. Everyone knows goats are so 2013. Alpaca is the way to go, it's the new black.

Goat insists on 60" plasma. Of course.

Would this be a good thread on which to ask someone to explain the goats and benefits reference to me please? Is it to do with kids?

i keep my goat in the kitchen but we're privately owned. i was thinking of trading him in for an alpaca but he matches the bespoke kitchen units.

Poor disadvantaged goat. ONLY 60''?

MY guinea pig/goat hybrid has a 6ft2 TV.

GoodNews Thread a long time ago where the goady fucker OP said benefit scroungers "get [her] goat". People decided to take her literally Grin

I think someone once said "it gets on my goat" when talking about benefits.

And it stuck.

YABU, everybody knows they eat anything so your benefits cheques are at risk if the postman drops them in your garden.

I want to know where everyone is getting these goats from!

It's the UK version of 'adopt a goat' - the upper classes can resolve their guilt at being filthy rich and can choose to have the goat given to a family on benefits instead of to an African village.
