Thank you for bringing the thread back on topic.
I was considering asking Ian to lock this thread for badly careening off-topic.
I can only hope this thread doesn't end even worse off.
Why blame me.........
Everyone knows that pizzas reached South America on the back of a dominoes moped, goats cheese pizza anyone? And goats cheese roulade is great after any desert!
...I must say 'But what about the smell?'
The goat may not mind, but eau de goat could have serious effects...
...All beards might be goatees...
Seriously, desertification emerges rapidly as a problem.
And every village will need a goatherd and a visiting Goat-Shaman (shameless plug)

I'm not sure about having them individually, but i could see goats being rented out to cut lawns. However, they might not provide the uniformity that people seem to want. I'm calling it now though, goats are the future. Green tech and all.
Btw no one has answered weather Hitler had a goat. I tried googling it and it was.. regrettable.

Dwarves riding goats from Battle of the Five Armies(The Hobbit).
I franky don't think it is possible for everyone to own a goat since not everyone has access to a good food source or open fields. Also maintaining a goat is pretty expensive or just a waste of time for the majority of the world's population. Perhaps you could have a larger goat owning population by preventing the industrial revolution so most people would remain famers and herders, and thus, have more goats.

Didn't most people used to own pigs?
Much friendlier and could be kept indoors on cold nights.

Very good, Professor!
Pigs have (occasionally) been kept as house pets. Unfortunately, they do break wind at intervals, but they can be house-trained to use a litter tray...
...If you have a goat in the bedroom, you will not only lose your shirt, but probably also your sheets and the rest of your clothes as well...
"...Your damn' goat ate my Jimmy Choos!" *Wallop around the chops*
Not good, I fear, for matrimonial harmony.

I think goats are real cool animals. There were some that lived at my friends old house. I don't think everyone should have one but I think there's no reason they couldn't be more common as pets. I'd rather people who live in a proper environment for goats keep goats as a pet rather than exotic animals like desert snakes in a humid temperate environment or something like that.
Pigs are cool animals also.

Goats work fine indoors. It saves having to vacuum the carpet- you just need to replace it every week or so.
Also your counter-tops, since the goats would climb all over them, and your sofa, chairs, and tables....
But no-one would ever dare break in - and not only because everything worth stealing had already been eaten.

Would trying to catch goats in urban spaces lead to an earlier development of pakour?
