Goats have a goatee, goat-feet, a perceptible smell, horns, and sound like an evil laugh. Also, they have a nasty habit of taking people by surprise in places no sane people would imagine a large animal could be.

No need to mess with deer in weird positions.

Even more in the weeds when you realise that’s not a deer

Although only as a disingenuously aloof retort meant to shift attention away from my worsening decrepitude:))) Theatre, nothing more.
