The meaning of Antigoat which then turns into random rambling number 1

The very point of this post is the definition of "Antigoat". I will keep it short. I may ramble on afterwards. That may be long. But the definition will be short.

To put it simply, a "goat" is a person who follows the crowd. They are usually not recognised individually. When you see a heard of people moving somewhere or doing something and can almost hear the inane thoughtless bleating that goes along with it, you can be sure that most of them are goats. Fearful, unthinking and "normal", these are the people who dominate our planet, or more accurately, this is the personality type that dominates us. You will learn more through references in later posts; I have promised to keep this short.

An "antigoat", one would suspect then, is the exact opposite of a goat. This is not true. They are not alike, but neither are they opposites. And antigoat is sort of the middle ground, because an antigoat is someone who can atleast recognise the crowd, but then in an irrational thoughtless way, chooses to go against it. When you see the bleating heard running one way, blindly, the antigoat is the raving loon running the other way equally blindly. This loon is often what i am.

I have reasons for being an antigoat. Reasons that i will express in future posts. But the sad truth is, as with all antigoats, these are not really reasons at all. They are probably just post-rationalisations.

SXC vs Sex

Well, every Xavierite who blogs, or uses any other medium of expression for that matter, dedicates at least one post in his/her/its blog to the ole Alma Mater. Not one to disappoint, or to have less of College Spirit. I too will include one post on the subject. If i ever get off my ass long enough to do something serious, there may be more. But for the time being this is it.

Why the years spent in St Xavier's College are like Sex:

1. Everyone remembers their first time.
2. It just keeps getting better as you go through with it.
3. The more things you try the more fun it is. And hell, there are a lot of things to try.
4. All of it is good, but everyone has their favorite spot.
5. Its generally more fun if you completely reject your parents advice.
6. It just wouldn't be fun without members of the opposite sex.
7. By the time you reach the peak, suddenly its all over.
8. Even if it leaves you feeling complete and satisfied, you wish it had lasted longer.





PS Those who haven't been through it are generally jealous of those who have!(even if they won't admit it)
