Twitter Thread: Man Documents Invasion Of Goat Overlords


Andrew Stuart's viral Twitter thread on his town getting invaded by an army of goat overlords is just our kind of entertainment. The confusion, the excitement, the general absurdity of the fact that the goats don't appear to give a flying frick about anything, makes this a true gem of a story.

Text - Andrew Stuart O @AndrewStuart · 6d v I think I just got a group of goats in Llandudno arrested. Let me explain... first, I saw this from inside a dark pub (the one I live in currently). I thought I was seeing things. So I took some video:

Text - Andrew Stuart O @AndrewStuart · 6d So I decided to see what was going on. They stopped on Trinity Square, and decided the hedges there looked very tasty (tbf, they probably are if you're a goat )

Product - Andrew Stuart So I gave @NWPolice a call to tell them a load of kids (geddit?) were running riot (I didn't actually say that... sadly). They said they'd pass it on to officers. @AndrewStuart · 6d 101 unknown message call WhatsApp mail Vesterdev

Text - Andrew Stuart @AndrewStuart · 6d v And they sent a patrol car down who turned on the big red lights. So, I'm sorry if the goats got arrested. But they were being very naughty. Also, close the gates behind you on the Orme. And stay 2m apart at all times. 0:31

Text - Andrew Stuart O @AndrewStuart · 2d This shows what it's all about. They're scared of me (a human) in this. They don't like people. They usually only come down from the Great Orme when it's windy, and only the back streets at the top of Mostyn Street. Now lockdown means it's empty, they're going further than ever. ane Camng Corporate E Ofe aes Business Lur MICOM huieg Free Deliver
