Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

They're all just running around a field and then every so often one of them will just go ass over teakettle and lie there for a moment and then jump up and race off to catch up with the others again.

It's probably taking a moment to think, "Thank crap I'm not a mountain goat."

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

It's probably taking a moment to think, "Thank crap I'm not a mountain goat."

I'm thinking that Darwinian selection would weed that particular trait out of mountain goats really quickly.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

IIRC, fainting goats were an accident of selective breeding, not a natural mutation. They're mostly bred now to be sold to sheep farms with coyote problems.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

What, so the coyotes get the goats instead of the sheep? That's appalling. Unless it's so the coyotes can't hunt for laughing, which would be my problem in that situation.

Yup.

[eta that they apparently also make good eating. So they're not all being used as wolf-bait.]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wool makes me itch and lamb is stinky. Can I have fainting sheep to save my goat herd?

Neil Gaiman is a hottie.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I didn't need ita's link to know Neil Gaiman's hot. (And he's Guest of Honor at Balticon this coming May)

well, car didn't start this morning, and we don't have jumper cables. Therefore, I am waiting for AAA's battery truck to arrive.(You learn something new every day. I didn't know they had a service that brought batteries out to cars needing them. Though it does make some sense...)
