• Walk in on parents having a heated debate.
• Am worried for a bit. Are they fighting?
• Realize parents are having a heated debate on whether or not goats can climb trees.
• Immediately side with mom, because I know goats can fuckin climb fucking ANYTHING because I remember the “crave that mineral” meme with the goat on the vertical cliff face apparently levitating to achieve the mineral it craves.
• who fuckin says the internet never taught me anything
• Dad has to leave to go back to work. Leaves convinced that no, goats can’t climb trees, they’re goats, they stay on the ground.
• Once he’s gone, youtube search “Moroccan Tree Goats.” Find self-explanatory video of several goat up in a fuckin tree like some Dr. Seuss shit.
• Mom looks at me like it’s the proudest she’s ever been of me in her life, including my university graduation
• She emails it to him. At work. My dad will get a video of Moroccan goats screaming in a tree at his place of business, with the subject line “I TOLD YOU SO.”
• Mom triumphantly yells to the empty house, “THIS IS WHY PEOPLE IN THE BIBLE THOUGHT GOATS WERE THE DEVIL.”
• Another ordinary day in my house.

‘This is why people in the Bible thought goats were the devil’ is a really solid explanation when you see how goats defy the laws of physics.
