FACTS CONSIDERED

A man intentionally tattooed the standalone word “GOAT” on his neck.

RULING

VIOLATION. By analogy to The Haircut Honesty Rule, neck placement creates the unavoidable public reading “THROAT GOAT.” Permanent ink demanded one honest read-aloud before deployment. The Court of Man Law has spoken. Case closed.

REMEDY

Wear a turtleneck until a cover-up plan exists, and buy the next round for everyone forced to notice.
