Goat Simulator Post Mortem
This game really resonates with me, and so does the writeup.<p>I had the fortune to work a high-tech job (in person) and also own a 20 acre farm for a number of years, where we attempted to produce some/most of the food we ate.  (That's a really hard thing to do by the way.)<p>Of course we raised goats, for the meat as well as the milk.<p>For those of you who haven't interacted with goats, know this: there is a hilarity about them that is difficult to describe.<p>They have some sort of almost human, child-like curiosity and bravery that was always refreshing.  Add to that their willingness/desire to climb on/stand on anything, and honestly, they were just a hoot to have around.<p>They roamed fence free on our property for a time.  I'd go out in the morning to ride my motorcycle to work, and there's be a couple of goats standing on my wife's car, just  standing there, chewing cud.  Or there'd be a goat balanced calmly on my motorcycle.<p>Or a small goat standing on the back of a larger goat.<p>Or a couple of goats dancing joyfully.  Or a few goats gloriously playing with a piece of fiberglass.<p>And many of them were really, really friendly to you.  My (then toddler) son enjoyed playing with them enormously.<p>Goats are awesome.  I do miss having them around.<p>I liked to say that you could add a goat to nearly any somber real-life situation and it would instantly become funny.<p>EDIT: 'add a joke' -> 'add a goat'.  Ugh.
