We are thinking of getting a Phgmy goat as a pet - whats pets do you have/would like to have?
Posted by Rosie, 09:34, 3rd June 2003:
 
I love cats. They are the best. I want to have 5 of them one day.
Posted by arsepuppy, 09:36, 3rd June 2003:
 
Wow! Goats are cool. How big are pygmy ones though?

Cats rock too.

aw, they're rather cute.

i have a chinchilla, who is capable of being insanely cute. the rest of the time he's a little bastard though...
Posted by Rosie, 09:46, 3rd June 2003:
 
OMG! Those little goat things are wicked. I want to get some!
Posted by arsepuppy, 09:46, 3rd June 2003:
 
I want one of those goat things!
Posted by arsepuppy, 09:47, 3rd June 2003:
 
Rosie: Jinx!
Posted by jlittle, 09:47, 3rd June 2003:
 
There were some at a nearby farm the other day - they rock - the babys are small, but the adults are not much bigger - they also don't bite, they lick you!
Posted by jlittle, 09:47, 3rd June 2003:
 
you need to get 2 tho (they need the company or they get depressed and die, or something like that)
Posted by arsepuppy, 09:48, 3rd June 2003:
 
Do they have a thing about standing on tables, though?
Posted by jlittle, 09:49, 3rd June 2003:
 
they do indeed like garden tables.
Posted by jlittle, 09:50, 3rd June 2003:
 
I guess in the wild they have large rocks, and tables are a kind of substiute for that
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 09:50, 3rd June 2003:
 
LOL.. i was just about to ask that. Theres a table, lets stand on it!
Posted by chandler, 09:53, 3rd June 2003:
 
we are sooooo gonna get some of them!!! WOW
Posted by Rosie, 10:11, 3rd June 2003:
 
What do little goats eat? carrots and stuff?
Posted by chandler, 10:13, 3rd June 2003:
 
i expect they eat anything that normal goats eat, only smaller!
oooh goddd they are superfuckingcute! :D
Posted by jlittle, 10:14, 3rd June 2003:

Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 10:39, 3rd June 2003:
 
Am i the only one sittin here thinking they are rotten? Yes, thety are slghtly cute, but i bet they smell. I bet they shit everywhere, and i bet they eat anything..curtains, sofa's, grass, flowers, clothes, fuckin anything.

Buy a cat or a dog, or a budgie, or some fish.
Posted by chandler, 10:46, 3rd June 2003:
 
"but they must be kept outside"

awww. damnit! i was hoping they were like dogs
Posted by jlittle, 10:51, 3rd June 2003:
 
No, they are goats man, not dogs.
Posted by chandler, 10:52, 3rd June 2003:
 
oh. bugger
Posted by Rosie, 11:00, 3rd June 2003:
 
You could pretend they were like, really little horses!
:)

*for whatever reason*
Posted by chandler, 11:01, 3rd June 2003:
 
yeah
you can get really little horses though
really little horses make more convincing really little horses that little goats do
some people have really little horses instead of guide dogs.
Posted by Rosie, 11:07, 3rd June 2003:
 
Little horses instead of guide dogs?? NO WAY! THats not true is it?

www.guidehorse.com
Posted by arsepuppy, 11:10, 3rd June 2003:
 
Why the FUCK does that site have a title in Braille???

It's not like you can feel it or anything....
Posted by chandler, 11:11, 3rd June 2003:
 
i love those little goats ap!
i still want them, even if we cant keep them in the house. :)
Posted by chandler, 11:12, 3rd June 2003:
 
and see rosie, i told you there were guide horses! :D i only heard about them cos they are now being allowed in planes if they travel first class. :D
Posted by Rosie, 11:21, 3rd June 2003:
 
WOW! I want a guide horse and a little midget goat! How cool would that be?
Posted by chandler, 11:23, 3rd June 2003:
 
guide horses are for blind people but i expect you could have one that makes cookies and goes camping.
Posted by chandler, 11:23, 3rd June 2003:
 
it would be very cool rosie
Posted by jlittle, 11:28, 3rd June 2003:
 
Anyone else think this is ammusing?

wierd horse
Posted by jlittle, 11:29, 3rd June 2003:
 
Rosie - then just dump your bloke and find a midget - either that or Sul if you like things small!
Posted by jlittle, 15:47, 3rd June 2003:
 
I insult Sul and he doesnt even notice!
Posted by Rosie, 15:49, 3rd June 2003:
 
My b/f is small! ( not in the private parts dept though i'd like to add!)


I think that picture is funny!


:D
Posted by Grim..., 15:49, 3rd June 2003:
 
I am sooooooo struggling to believe that that guide horses site isn't fake...
Posted by chandler, 15:50, 3rd June 2003:
 
its true, its real, believe
Posted by Sul, 15:50, 3rd June 2003:
 
insult? What? Me and rosie are going out this weekend? Apparently she does like things small. Cheers mate. You may have got me and my tiny cock some action.

joke - sorry rosie
Posted by arsepuppy, 15:52, 3rd June 2003:
 
Grim.. - It's real.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 15:54, 3rd June 2003:
 
Grim, i am in the same boat as you so to speak..I am struggling to believe aswell. Letting a wee horse on a plane...hmm, sounds dubious
Posted by Grim..., 15:56, 3rd June 2003:
 
I demand proof!

For starters, they're not horses.
Posted by cal, 15:56, 3rd June 2003:
 
i'm pretty sure it's real
Posted by chandler, 15:56, 3rd June 2003:
 
www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_783809.htm...

this is the only reason i found out about the horses for guide dogs thing
Posted by jlittle, 15:57, 3rd June 2003:
 
i think it's real!
Posted by chandler, 15:57, 3rd June 2003:
 
"Letting a wee horse on a plane"

or even letting a horse wee on a plane. cos that isnt going to impress the people in first class
Posted by Grim..., 15:59, 3rd June 2003:
 
That story ( www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_783809.htm... ) strikes me as being very false...

Jet-setting cats get frequent flyer miles

Two cats are reported to have become the first pets to redeem frequent flyer miles from a commercial airline.

Babi and Kuukie Rifkin have taken three trips from New York to Israel in the past year.

That's earned them one free flight from EL AL airline's new pet frequent flyer scheme.

Their owner Elayne, from White Plains, New York, says they average four trips a year and love visiting Israel because they were both born there.

The NCBuy website reports the cats recently completed their free trip to Israel saving their owners almost $400 (£277) in plane fares.
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:00, 3rd June 2003:
 
Can't see The Times making that up....
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:00, 3rd June 2003:
 
They say all 'service animals'.. since when did a pig become a service animal? And what service does said pig provide? Apart from bacon sannies!
Posted by chandler, 16:01, 3rd June 2003:
 
pigs are cleverererer than dogs.


not sure what that has to do with anything
but there we go
Posted by jlittle, 16:02, 3rd June 2003:
 
maybe it's for hungry people - theres not so much meat in 3rd world counrys afterall :P
Posted by Rosie, 16:02, 3rd June 2003:
 
If i had one of those little guide horses, I would call it Horsey.
Posted by Rosie, 16:03, 3rd June 2003:
 
U can use pigs hearts in transplants.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:04, 3rd June 2003:
 
Thats very imaginative of you Rosie.
Posted by Grim..., 16:04, 3rd June 2003:
 
Chay: pigs are cleverererer than dogs.
Very true, but horses are very stupid compared to dogs (or most things), hence my dubiousness of the above site.
Posted by Rosie, 16:05, 3rd June 2003:
 
Horses aren't stupid.
Posted by Grim..., 16:05, 3rd June 2003:
 
Rosie: If I had one of those little horses, I would attempt to ride it like a skateboard.
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:05, 3rd June 2003:
 
Yeah, you never see a horse chase its tail.
Posted by chandler, 16:05, 3rd June 2003:
 
rosie: lol that would be the best name ever
and yeah transplants - good! :)
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:05, 3rd June 2003:
 
I would eat it. Yummy!
Posted by chandler, 16:06, 3rd June 2003:
 
grim - good point
Posted by Grim..., 16:06, 3rd June 2003:
 
FFS - horses are very stupid, even the most intelligent ones understand about 13 humand commands, max.

They also have poor senses of direction, making them a damned bad choice.

A guide pig, however, I could understand.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:07, 3rd June 2003:
 
a guide pig!! hahahaha..i would also eat that. Yummy!
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:09, 3rd June 2003:
 
What about Guide Midgets? You could hire Jack Purvis and Rusty Goff and have them tied in reins, showing blind folk where the Stella is at the local Unwins and helping them avoid the cans of Breaker.
Posted by Sul, 16:09, 3rd June 2003:
 
FL: God forbid you go blind.

"hey foghorn, what seeing eye animal they give ya?"
"Fuck knows. Tasted a bit like chicken"
Posted by chandler, 16:09, 3rd June 2003:
 
lol
Posted by Rosie, 16:10, 3rd June 2003:
 
I want a guide midget.
Posted by Rosie, 16:11, 3rd June 2003:
 
Sul: LOL!!!
Posted by Sul, 16:11, 3rd June 2003:
 
I want a midget butler in my flat. I couldnt house a full size one.
Posted by Grim..., 16:12, 3rd June 2003:
 
Sul: Have children mate =]
Posted by ilovebeerme, 16:12, 3rd June 2003:
 
you could call him Zoltan and get him a cape.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:12, 3rd June 2003:
 
Na, i would draw the line at eating a midget but a midget butler..that sounds fun.
Posted by Victor Menendez, 16:13, 3rd June 2003:
 
Like knick-knack in 'the man with the golden gun'?
Posted by Rosie, 16:13, 3rd June 2003:
 
I could get a midget butler and keep him under the stairs!!

is ripping the piss out of midgets racist or predjudice or something? - i don't want to upset anyone....
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:14, 3rd June 2003:
 
Der plane boss! Der plane!

Posted by arsepuppy, 16:14, 3rd June 2003:
 
Vic, you fucker! You beat me to it!
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:14, 3rd June 2003:
 
I want someone to live under my stairs and when i am in a bad mood i can bring him out kick the shit out of him. Then put him back.
Posted by Grim..., 16:15, 3rd June 2003:
 
Rosie: As long as you wouldn't mind someone pointing at a wheel-chair bound person and shouting "ha ha you can't walk", I guess...

Obviously its predjudice, it just a case of seeing if anyone cares.
Posted by Grim..., 16:19, 3rd June 2003:
 
FL: Get one of those little horses! It can't fight back =]
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:20, 3rd June 2003:
 
Aha! Then i could eat it after kicking the shit out of it!
Posted by Sul, 16:21, 3rd June 2003:
 
well you dont want to eat it with the shit still in it now
Posted by Rosie, 16:21, 3rd June 2003:
 
Well if i agree with Foghorn and say i'd like have a midget so that i could kick 10 shades of shit out of him when i was in a rotten mood - i don't want to offend anyone.

maybe it could be a stuffed midget - so it won't feel me kicking the fuck out of it?
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:21, 3rd June 2003:
 
exactly Sul!
Posted by Grim..., 16:22, 3rd June 2003:
 
Nah, it wouldn't be the same if it didn't cry about it, would it?

(Saying that my punchbag is the best tension reliever in the world).
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:22, 3rd June 2003:
 
Just pump him/her full of drugs or drink Rosie, then they wont feel anything.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:23, 3rd June 2003:
 
It would cry out when roasting over a open fire!
Posted by Rosie, 16:26, 3rd June 2003:
 
I'm not taking the piss out of midgets any more coz i might get in trouble. I don't wont to hurt any midgets feelings by going on about keeping one under the stairs or using him as a punchbag. or drugging him up or getting him pissed.
Posted by Grim..., 16:27, 3rd June 2003:
 
I wonder what it would be like for me (being quite tall) to hump a little midget woman (who would be quite short)...
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:29, 3rd June 2003:
 
You could glue a tray to her head and whilst getting a BJ put your one can of Fosters on it, with a ash tray and some peanuts. Excellent!
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:30, 3rd June 2003:
 
I'm still loving the "one can of fosters" joke.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 16:30, 3rd June 2003:
 
me too..hence the inclusion.
Posted by Rosie, 16:31, 3rd June 2003:
 
Stop taking the mik out of the midgets. They're only little. Its not fair.
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:32, 3rd June 2003:
 
Yeah but at 5'6 I'm the iamcal midget, so it's ok :)
Posted by Grim..., 16:32, 3rd June 2003:
 
Rosie: You started it.

What is the 'one can of Fosters' joke?
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:33, 3rd June 2003:
 
tee hee.
Posted by Sul, 16:33, 3rd June 2003:

Arse puppy said that he was worried about me because I like Big Brother.
Vic said:

And his can of fosters."

Well, I guess if you look at it that way, it's kind of funny...

Is that it? Is there more?

I find it far funnier that your name, if said anywhere in Bedfordshire, would instantly conjour up an 'Arse Expert' or 'Arse Lover', making you appear 'Gay' =]

Yes, because I bum men, apparently :/

Did someone make a change to the matrix?

Graham Nortons joke about guide horses tonight:

Blind man: I love my new guide dog but why doesnt he bark?
Graham Norton and the rest of the world with a sense of humour: Dont worry, he's just a little horse!

AHAHAHHAHA *ahem*

My best freind had sex with his pet goat, then he killed it and ate it.
