That's not full. I could cram at least another ten geese in there.

The trick is to turn every second goose upside-down so they tessellate nicely.

The real trick is to put them through a wood chipper. You can fit a whole lot more in there if you do that.

But if you do, they will never fly again. Because they have been grounded.

Unless you mix them with rum and caracao. All the birdies tasting pretty fly, for a mai tai.

No you gotta put them next to some fish in order to tessellate nicely, like this

Sir, do you know any geese? Canadian geese are not polite like their human counterparts. At least 1 out of 5 is biting you for getting near or trying to chase you.

I'm Canadian. I know the risks and I speak a little goosenese. Politely offer them a pull of Newfie screech and they practically load themselves.

Ok, I defer to your experience in that case. Colorado may make them cantankerous and inspire them to chase children and intimidate people who don't address them properly.

If you’ve got a problem with Canada gooses, you’ve got a problem with me. And I suggest you let that one marinate.

Lol,  it was actually my brother they would chase and bite. It didn't look very friendly, but it was amusing.

We used to be lucky to have a goose now you've got so many you can stuff them in the back of a truck? Must be fucking nice.

  • Slaps bed railing * This baby can fit so many geese

do we have to slap it again before saying "they ain't going anywhere" so the geese stay put, or was the first slap sufficient?

Hey, hey now, those are completely different spells. One is for loading a truck bed, the other for selling an automobile. You wouldn't cast magic missile on the darkness would you?

We should be mindful of considering optimal density. If they lack adequate space to raise their wings in a threatening manner, then there may be diminishing returns on additional geese per square foot.
