Mfw the goat is goated

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Goats sure are neat

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Have they pet this goat yet

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah he was available to meet as part of the All 4 Kids foundation on several occasions.

How can you possibly pet all the goats? Google AI helped me calculate that there are over a billion goats in the world and nearly 2 million new goats born every day.

edit: You'd have to pet 1.7 million goats per day to finish in 1 year. this doesn't seem to add up. sorry. I tried. it's not possible is all I'm saying. But if you could, Baphomet would probably find you.

AI helped me calculate

there is a problem there

Even ignoring that, the person in the comic knows magic. Do you not think there is a pet 1.7 million goats spell?

We might need a simulator for this

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Honestly that would go hard. The ending is a boss fight against baphomet where you climb him shadow of collosus style to give him pets.

When your demon becomes your holy guardian angel. ❤️🏵️

There's a manga where that's the original premise, except the summoner immediately asks the demon to marry him instead

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'd be interested in seeing it. Do you know the title?

Hi, thanks so much. I'll watch it this weekend, after silence shatters.

It doesn't matter if it's great or not. These types of fables tend to hold deep symbolic meaning. It floats my boat.

How often should you shampoo your Baphomet? Asking for a friend.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Assuming you're a mortal, you shouldn't have to worry about it in your lifetime. However, if you have sold your soul for immortality, you should wash once every 666th celestial alignment. CAUTION! You should never use regular soap and water, especially anything marketed as sacred or holy water, as this can agitate the skin. Instead, you can find chicken blood in the meat department, or sometimes it is labeled as fishing bait. This is an all-natural alternative. Don't be afraid to experiment by making your own—there's nothing quite like organic, homemade products, and you can use higher-quality ingredients than what you find in stores, such as sheep's blood or the blood of your firstborn. Your immortal soul will thank you for it—oops, silly you, you already sold that.

Don't shampoo goats, they fuckin hate water and will be massive assholes about it

Brush them every few days or so and they're fine (that's overkill but I like to let mine) and if something nasty gets on them soaking the brush with warm water usually makes them okay-ish with the water so you can get the gunk off em

Baphomet, being a goat and from hell, is very similar I'd assume, but probably even more averse to water

If you are good at metallurgy, you can identify the dirt substance and develop magma, specific to cleaning that particular thing.

Normally, just use Hellflame lvl10 and then brush off the ashes.

Counterpoint: create a field of brambles for your goats to wander through when they get itchy so you don’t have to brush them.

Bonus: those brambles are blackberry bushes so you can wander through them and eat breakfast.

And gather goat fur to spin into cordage or make brushes from.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Won't the goats just eat the blackberry bushes?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Free trimming.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was literally about to reply to them

Yeah, immediately and voraciously

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They're hired out in lots of places because of their appetite for things others won't eat. The blackberry has become invasive in parts and the thick growths of them can become impenetrable

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeap, and they'll eat right through the "impenetrable" bushes like they're nothing, it's super impressive

This is one of mine that destroyed a couple of my berry bushes when they broke down my fence

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What a goat! I assume they're responsible for the broken planter tray as well?

Also I didn't see the alt text until I replied. Do you have more pictures of your beasties?? I love goats!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

That was actually a plate that got accidentally left out and yeah, that little shit is the one responsible for it

I have more pics over at https://pixelfed.social/gamermanh - though I don't remember to post nearly often enough. Which is a good reminder to do so now, actually.....

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

The wet brush didn't work for me, what others don't mention is the heat. A wet brush melts away quickly, Baphomet need specialized metal tooth comb (the kind you use with hell cats).

Not more than once a month. Their natural skin oils protect against the fires of hell

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)
