Goats Don't Vote[edit]

It's not clear what implications this finding may or may not have for democracy in other species. Original source (equally paywalled if not more so) — Unsigned, by: TMqWQfNP9zx2FbrA / talk / contribs

This belongs in the fun section.[edit]

This is not a serious article. And articles that are completely non-serious do not belong on RationalWiki unless they are in the fun section. 72.81.153.166 (talk) 21:28, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

Goat fascination[edit]

I'm curious about how and when RationalWiki's goat fascination began, especially given that I'm working on a legendary goat Pokémon to be RationalWiki's mascot. --Luigifan18 (talk) 18:47, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

My assumption was it was a way to mock conspiracy theorists trying to link goat heads to Satanism (well, or maybe the Satanists did that first, but either way goats are caught in the crossfire!), but I have no idea, that was just my working theory. A 2007 post on the archive for this talk page says "it's just that on the inherent humour scale of animals, goats rank quite highly", which is agreeable, although I think ferrets may be funnier myself.

Goats have been connected to Satan for a long time for some reason. Why? I'm not quite sure, but you can't spell "scapegoat" without "goat". Maybe it's just part of goats getting a bad rap they don't deserve. --Luigifan18 (talk) 19:47, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

tree goats[edit]
