Yes a goat would be good, or a flamethrower, or better yet, a flamethrowing goat.

A beast such as that would likely starve itself to death.

You should be aware that there are nocturnally roving herds of weird, purple jellyfish who may try to eat your plastic fish collection. (Their eyesight isn't the best).
You should also be aware that there are security services claiming they will provide 24 hour protection against weird, purple jellyfish. Don't get suckered into subscribing to one of these services. All they will do is come and round up the ones who have already gotten in, after the damage is done. They perform no actual preventative measures. Since the jellyfish will leave on their own, anyway, don't waste your money to have them carted away.
lol, i will keep this in mine

i am eating a fudgesicle... if that's how you spell it

They should put that in a movie. Revenge of the flamethrowing goat. When humans encroach on its territory, it charrs them to ashes! Starring the goat and his witty sidekick, a talking pie.

Of course a movie like that wouldn't sell because everyone wants to see kitshy movies and not the movies where things EXPLODE. As Homer Simpson says: "Whatever happened to rooting for the guy with the flamethrower or an acid spraying gun of some sort"

I just found out that I have an A in my Programming class.

How the hell did that happen?!

Meh, I'm not going to complain. Hopefully I can keep it.

(Refer to Page 1 if you have no idea what I'm talking about).

Whoops. Sorry. I have confused Mancunian and Mancusian: Mancusia is a planet not far from Zoobonia. Apologies.

I have to admit, I can't really remember. It may be Simpsons or Futurama. My friend mentioned it to me a while back and it has just stuck in my head. It's like a curse...

I did wonder whether you were insulting my family by saying they were extra-terrestrial or whether it was a genuine mistake. Have you ever been to Liverpudlucian, Mancusia's moon?
