I never realised people took the notion of a scapegoat quite so literally.

[–]Pathfinder551 5 points6 points ago

And we fall for scams from this country. THE FUCK!

[–]tuscanspeed 5 points6 points ago

People falling for those scams would likely also believe this person had the ability to transform themselves into a goat.

The stupid. It's everywhere.

[–]Quiet_Guy116 8 points9 points ago

I can't help but get the mental picture of a Heavily-armed goat wearing a ski-mask.

This is exactly what all religions sound like to me.

[–]ZeroGSpaceCow 5 points6 points ago

Someone who could transform into an animal should probably steal a better car than a 323.

Context.

Coming from a country where people believe that cleft palates are caused by genies

[–]Lurkerhereduh 4 points5 points ago

Of all the times I've seen this on the internet, this is one of those times.

"The goat is in our custody; repeat, the goat is in our custody. We got him."

[–]MrKrazybones 1 point2 points ago

I read it as 'ghost' that would have just been silly

[–]tim0the0us 1 point2 points ago

I wonder what would happen if they didn't catch the goat, you'd see one the news "Attention, there is a escape man who can transform into a goat, so if you see a goat try talking to him!"

[–]christopherbyron 0 points1 point ago

I cant image a goat with an AK-47 and RPG.

Oh no THE BLACK MAGIC GOAT!!!! EVERYONE RUN!!

Proof Harry Potter is real.

[–]joseph4th 0 points1 point ago

Here is the thing. We've all seen this on movies and TV shows. Somebody does something like turn into a goat, or something similar: aliens, monsters, magic, time travel, whatever. Another person witness it and tries to tell somebody. Nobody believes him and we, as the audience, have totally suspended our disbelief and are dismayed that nobody believes him. Now, finally, somebody believes that this guy turned into a goat and he isn't going to get away with trying to steal that car! I will sleep easier tonight.

[–]Seraphiend 1 point2 points ago

Oh, Nigeria...

When asked if he was guilty, the goat said "nayayayaya".

[–]TorontoMindState[S] -3 points-2 points ago

I was once a GOAT

[–]Bixby66 1 point2 points ago

Ah man what an idiot. Goats can't use black magic, he's stuck that way unless the police know the number of a good shaman.
