    Goofus resorts to slavery when he doesn’t want to mow the lawn. Gallant, gets rid of the lawn.

    I briefly considered getting a goat a few years ago when that was being suggested as an eco alternative to lawn mowing, mostly because I have enough lawn that it seemed cheaper to feed a goat or two. But then I learnt that goats will eat everything, not just your grass, you have to maintain a small herd to get even coverage, and they shit everywhere.

    If I could train one to ride my mower, though, I might reconsider.
