Transcript:
Goat: Hey, Rat,you gonna help me clean out my garage next week? Rat: Why should I? Goat: Well, first off- Rat: 'First off' is never followed by anything good.
“Well first off if you help me I’ll get you a months worth of six packs of beer.” That would have been good in Rat’s opinion, but as he has no clue what it means to be anything but a selfish ************ he’ll never know if Goat was going to offer that or not.
D-Con should take care of this infestation with vicious rat. Actually, I guess if it’s only one you can’t call it an infestation…but I would still give him a lump of D-con in his coffee.

Rat’s right. “First off” is time to shove off.

You’re right, Rat… Goat said, “First off…” the you hit him. First off is never followed by anything good…

One day Goat and the rest are going to smack Rat up on the head in payback
There’s actually a “Rule 34” pic on the net in which they do worse than that to Rat. You can find it if you look.
