      Americans are also some of the loudest, over-confident, self-absorbed, entitled people on the planet. Of course they believe they can take on any animal.

      My apologies go out to the dozen other Americans who are cool.

      I guess Americans just have more experience in actually fighting those overgrown turkeys. Actually turkeys have spurs so they’re a bit more of a threat to a human adult than geese are. I’d rather tussle with a goose than a wild Tom turkey.

      Have Americans even seen what a goose does?

      You’d have a hand around its neck, doing twirls for a shotput throw, and yeah, the goose goes like twenty-five meters back into the lake, and that’s fine.

      But with a sinking realization as the goose fucks off, it stole your wallet.

      There is a family legend about an amorous goose. I don’t know it well enough to tell it properly though, I wasn’t there when it happened. But I do not understand the Statesian confidence in goose warfare.
