Of course at this point you've demonstrated that you are       completely clueless about how anything could be good for any       animal, clearly showing yourself to be on the most ignorant level       a person can be on. You are, necessarily, the most clueless a       person can be Goober. I challenge you to try rising above the       lowest possible level where you currently are stuck, and try to       think of some way something could be good for an animal Goo.       Go:              >>> You're completely incoherent.       >>       >> Show that you're not incoherent by explaining how       >>anything could be good about something Goo.
