Wouldst thou like the taste of butter?
A pretty dress?
Wouldst thou like to live deliciously?
Dost thou like travel?
I wonder if I can get a 4 horned goat skull off craigslist considering I am surrounded by farm land… 🤔 Shit would be a bitchin decoration.

I’m not usually into goats but that is one sexy goat.
