A lot of that depends on if you're motivated to actually hurt the animal. A goose is like 20 pounds and has fragile, hollow bones. You can easily beat it in a fight.

But in reality, people lose to the goose because the goose is giving it's all, and the human doesn't actually want to hurt the goose. Weight class matters a lot. I mean, it's just an animal. You'd have to be pretty sick to actually try to hurt most of these animals. A cobra would probably result in you killing each other. 0% of people could be a lion, gorilla, elephant or bear.

As a tiny child I once got swarmed by a flock of geese and my tiny little 110lb mother charged in like an avenging angel, grabbed a goose in each hand by the neck and used those geese as weapons against the other geese.

I'm fairly certain that I could defeat a goose if I so chose to do so. Even if i'm not a mother.

She married one of Reddit’s founders.

Her tennis game is really good, but there’s got to be an outside chance that she makes a mistake on the court that is like one millionth as serious as marrying that guy.

Here is the funniest story of the year

https://twitter.com/AlsikkanTV/status/1762235549727809858

quote:

Just 24 hours before 'Willy's Chocolate Experience' on Saturday at the Boxhub, organisers House of Illuminati posted pictures of a van full of props and said 'it's all coming together nicely'.

Yet families were left stunned when they arrived and were greeted with a near-empty warehouse with a few Wonka-themed props and a small bouncy castle, leaving distraught children in floods of tears.

The event was cancelled halfway through on Saturday as angered mothers, fathers and grandparents demanded refunds. Organisers have promised to give people their money back.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said officers were called to the cancelled event and 'advice was given'.

quote:

Despite organisers posting pictures on social media of thousands of sweets and lollies in the days leading up to the event, it was claimed by one parent their children were handed just a couple of jelly babies and a quarter of a can of Barr's limeade.

Paula Graham, 36, of Johnstone, Renfrewshire, went to the event with her husband Andrew, 39, their daughter Anna, eight, and her friend.

She told The Sun they forked out £65 on tickets having got a deal for two children and two adults.

'The actual experience took two minutes to walk though because there was nothing there. When we arrived so many people had complained that they shut it down.

'You couldn't even call it an event - it was terrible.

'The guy was saying 'just have a wee walk through and you'll get a refund'.'

You double fault when you're trying to smash unreturnable serves into the very corners, which is necessary against elite tennis players. Against a random guy I'd happily bet she'd be more than capable of going a whole match either bouncing unreturnable serves into the corners or smashing hard ones straight down the middle that people would break their wrists trying to return.
