    how the fuck do the majority of british people think that a goose would kick their ass in a 1v1? their bones are hollow, they weigh like 30 pounds at most, and their bite is at most rather painful. A goose can't do shit to you

      Hollow bones are actually stronger because of the way they are structured. Geese are strong, I knew a guy that got knocked out by one when it attacked him in the head with its wing.

      so in the UK there's a myth that large birds like geese and swans can just fuck you up badly and 'break your arm' is the line you always hear. they'll nip the shit out of you for sure, but besides that the biggest wound is to your pride of being the guy who fights a fucking bird

      geese are fucked - If my first few attempts at booting it don't land, i'd nearly give up hope

      they're glass cannons

      I dunno, I've seen someone fairly substantial get attacked by a Black Swan and "won" is not the word I'd use. Laid on ground screaming while bird stood on him and pecked at eyes is more the end state.

        That's not how I thought that movie would end from the trailers.

        Aggressive but with fuck all backing it up. Geese act all tough and scary but what can they actually do? Nothing. Just grab their giant necks when they try and ineffectually bite you and GG, one dead goose
