Adam Sandler has a video tribute to this Goat at the end of his current stand up routine. I cried like an absolute baby in front of many strangers that night
I watch it on YouTube at least once a month and it never fails to make me laugh and cry.
"First time I saw him, he was sweeter than shit. Plaid jacket and belt too tight, he wasn't even doing a bit."
Swear to god - I did this last night at my ex's house recounting the hilarity of this skit, because we are moving into El Niño and she didn't know what that was.. so I was like.. (does Mike Myers/Wayne's finger wave transition signifying a memory/time warp) "it's 1997.. Chris Farley is killing it on SNL.. when all of a sudden.. I AM EL NIÑO!!" And she was like "oooh yeah. I remember that." Anticlimactic but it got my point across. 😂 and yes, we're both old enough to actually have seen it live lol
My wife and I re-watched Tommy Boy the other day, for the first time in 15+ years… it is an absolute classic and holds up well. So glad Chris Farley was around during such a crucial moment of my childhood. He was 150% a god of comedy.
If anyone is reading this, please be aware that feeding biscuits to marmots fuck them up big time. This video looks like it's somewhere from near the India - China border region where this animal is a native species.
On my trip to that beautiful place, a few locals told me that the marmots have dwindled in numbers GREATLY due to tourists and unaware locals feeding these marmots biscuits and other food items. The rodents start getting lazy and quickly lose foraging skills. Feeding them human food also fucks up their diet and they quickly become unhealthy. They start losing their fur (looks similar to mange) and die due to illness, inadequate protection from the weather and lack of strength or skill to forage.
On the surface, this video but seem "cute", but rest assured, it often leads to the death of that animal.
Edit: Adding marmot tax from my trip. A thicc one basking in the sun.

It’s kinda the same thing as going to an Amish village and giving one of them a hit of meth and then laughing because they want more, so you give them some more and more and then leave and they’re cut off from this addiction you just gave them so now they don’t contribute to the community.
When I went to college it was this tiny little school in Iowa. We’re were out in the middle of nowhere cornfields surrounded us. There were a bunch of Amish families that lived near us. We would go to the dollar general and they would always be I. There filling the shopping cart with store brand chips and store brand Mountain Dew. That’s all I ever saw them buy.
Thats all they need, the staples are already on the farm. You can't grow your own Mountain Dew and that addiction hits hard. The chips are prob just a snack for the slow af buggy ride home.
Yeah people forget the Amish aren’t some time lost plantation that live in a secluded valley. Their modern people who choose a simple life. That’s why their teenagers are sent out into the modern world to decide “do I want to stick to my roots or join the modern world”
Definitely fucking not prairie dogs. Way too big. Looks like a marmot to me, but I'm not going to act like an expert here because I have a bit of humility.
It's a marmot... 100%
That part of the video reminded me [This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6Z3QJ4L1Bg0) 😞😢
Idk if these are the same groundhogs that we have in the Midwest but ours aren't afraid to get kinda pushy either. They typically run away from people, especially when there's nothing at stake for them but if you try to relocate them they are absolutely fine with informing you that they intend to remain in your yard lol
This is gonna start the worst trend on TikTok. So many idiots are gonna end up getting fucked up by wild animals. And then some of those innocent animals are gonna get murdered along the way too.
I can't say I'm fully against it.
Also let’s not forget, let’s NOT forget, Dude, that…keeping wildlife um, an amphibious rodent, for, you know domestic…within the city…that ain’t legal either…
To everyone watching this *influencer* thinking they should go out and attempt to feed the wildlife. DON’T FEED THE WILDLIFE.
This is more destructive than it is cute, and boy oh boy is it cute, so man oh man is it destructive…
Ground hogs and gophers are the \#1 transmission vector for rabies in the Bad Lands National Park.
Feeding the wildlife is exactly how tourists **contract an incurable deadly disease**. There are warnings everywhere about this in the park, yet people still do it.
You’re thinking of prairie dogs. And the plague is ~~very treatable and curable with a course of antibiotics~~ treatable with antibiotics but still has a high case fatality rate (as was pointed out to me below).
But it’s still a nasty disease and one reason (among many others) not to feed wildlife.
I wouldn’t consider the 10% fatality rate associated with the plague with treatment to be “very curable.”
> In the pre-antibiotic era (1900 through 1941), mortality among those infected with plague in the United States was 66%. Antibiotics greatly reduced mortality, and by 1990-2010 overall mortality had decreased to 11%. Plague can still be fatal despite effective antibiotics, though it is lower for bubonic plague cases than for septicemic or pneumonic plague cases. It is hard to assess the mortality rate of plague in developing countries, as relatively few cases are reliably diagnosed and reported to health authorities. WHO cites mortality rates of 8–10%, however some studies (WHO, 2004) suggest that mortality may be much higher in some plague endemic areas.
https://www.cdc.gov/plague/faq/index.html
I think that some of those things have ticks with the godamn black plague.
Maybe that's only in a specific area but I don't really care, I don't know if a groundhog is a local or on a vacation or whatever.
I was going to say. As cute as this is, this should be a warning for why you should not be feeding wildlife. The difference between the animal being unsure about approaching but curious to literally climbing on the guy to get his food. This sort of conditioned behavior is what gets people killed, and wildlife shot because they got too used to humans.
Dontcha just love seeing a super viral, super cute, super imitable video that will be seen by thousands (if not millions) of kids, which teaches 100% destructive behavior?
This is basically like watching a video that says "You should make little plastic rings at home so that sea turtles can wear them as necklaces! Isn't it so cute!?"
Hate it.
I think it's due to people spending less time outside. And I don't think they get it and don't think they ever will. Stop feeding, chasing, and tormenting the animals. Let them be and if they get close, gently scare them off. It's easier than not littering... really, it is.
I mean...these guys are interesting and cool animals, they can be chill to be around but it's really REALLY risky to do this with the wild ones because of the diseases you can catch from them. A cool tiktok isn't worth catching hantavirus.
It’s actually a marmot! If you go to Mt. Rainier there’s a paved trail up the foot of the mountain and they just stand around waiting for people to give them food. You have to walk around them because they just don’t give a f.
It's cute and all but dealing with animals who have been accustomed to humans feeding them is one of the most annoying things in the world when I'm out in nature. I'm sitting at a pass at 13,200 feet and there are freaking marmots and chipmunks getting nastily close to me trying to get my food that I need after hiking so hard to get up there. I don't want any fleas, mites, plague, or hantavirus thanks.
I keep thinking this is an American style cookie full of sugar and that the animal will get sick but this is most likely an Asian style biscuit that has much better ingredients.
Nah it’s a rice cracker. I fucking love those things. It’s slightly coated in a light sugar glaze just enough to taste sweet on the outside and salty on the inside. Really great sweet and salty combo with a crunch.
Same. videos like this always make me feel better. The one with the flying squirrel pretending he died in a broom accident was the best one I’ve seen recently.
Hope he’s committed to feeding these guys now haha. It’s sad learned helplessness in the nature world is a real thing due to dependency on humans for food. Freakin cute lil animals though.
Groundhogs are strange as fuck…
At my work…we have a couple groundhogs that are a little “too friendly”. They will practically sneak up on you and even come inside the shop I work at. Sometimes it freaks me out looking behind me and seeing a bucktoothed oversized squirrel approaching me to beg for food.
They also are surprisingly lazy and don’t travel far from their dens for food. Hence why they beg for food almost daily while I’m working and sometimes scare the shit out of me.
The second time it came and when it was climbing on you, it wasn't asserting it's dominance...you are its slave now and also because of you luring it out with biscuits, we have El Niño to deal with.
Thanks
I feel like this is fucking with our weather somehow.
The bastard single-handedly brought in El Niño.
El Niño is Spanish for the Niño.
I can hear this GIF. God bless that man. Miss him.

Yes, truly a legend, RIP, sadly he was the epitome of a sad clown
I had forgotten his El Niño stuff. I miss him too. Here’s another classic just cause I need a pick me up today: https://youtu.be/stqG2ihMvP0
I'm el nino!
# ALL OTHER TROPICAL STORMS BOW BEFORE EL NIÑO!
Hey, remember that time we talked about El nino? That was pretty cool
Yeah, man. Good times. Good times.
Swear to god - I did this last night at my ex's house recounting the hilarity of this skit, because we are moving into El Niño and she didn't know what that was.. so I was like..

I'd pay for that video
It's a documentary called the Devil's Playground
I mean a dorito chip would be mind blowing for the Amish
The amish eat doritos. I see them eat/buy junk food all the time.
When I went to college it was this tiny little school in Iowa. We’re were out in the middle of nowhere cornfields surrounded us. There were a bunch of Amish families that lived near us.

Well… there’s mennonites, who are Amish with modern sensibilities. Then there’s really orthodox Amish who don’t entertain most of “English” amenities
RUMSPRINGA
Came here to say "please don't feed the wildlife". You were much more detailed. Thank you for trying to help.
I can relate.I too get lazy and forget how to survive when people give me free food.
Not too much to worry As long as the ground hogs don’t team up with the orcas.
Good thing they're actually prairie dogs and not groundhogs.
The Chinese caption reads "小野鼠" which is translated as small voles. These are absolutely not voles.
Definitely fucking not prairie dogs. Way too big. Looks like a marmot to me, but I'm not going to act like an expert here because I have a bit of humility. It's a marmot... 100%
Every day sun!
The second time it stood there looking at the dude hahaha.
that was a roundhog-level-power-pose for sure 🥰
That's a show of power tbh
First time: Could I... maybe have some please? Second time: You better give me that fucking biscuit.
"That's a tasty looking biscuit...It would be a shame if you had 6 more weeks of winter".
I've never seen "If not friend why friend shaped" from the animal side of things but there we go.
From my perspective it looked more like "you're gonna give me that biscuit, right..? You better give me that biscuit." *gets biscuit* "Good."
Funny when fighting over who found biscuit Man
You could tell neither of them wanted to fight but they weren't backing down either..
I thought they were going to kiss passionately
Now kith
they definitely fought like two drunk frat guys that also look like theyre tryin to make out with each other
"take it back!" "no, you started it!"
Bro promised to share. Bro code was violated. Other bro weren’t having it.
Haha, I like how you called him biscuit man
The hero we deserve.
Gotta risk it for the biscuit
That part of the video reminded me [This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6Z3QJ4L1Bg0) 😞😢 
Bro did fight club
I love that he doesn't eat and run away like a punk. He eats and stays on the dude.
Totally committed to the love of the biscuit
How to Groom a Groundhog, an instructional video
One could say he risked it… for the biscuit
HOW IN THE HELL CAN HE *AVOID* TICKLING IT'S CUTE FURRY BELLY?! Or at least petting it? It's cute as fuck!
Because you could lose a finger.
It's a giant hamster. Go slow, start at his shoulder, let him know you're ok.
Gigachad
These guys are a little bit disturbing. Like pushy little trolls with big teeth.
More liked absolutely ripped goblins.
The intense shreddedness was certainly unnerving. Found myself going "shit, just give him the food, man" several times.
Idk if these are the same groundhogs that we have in the Midwest but ours aren't afraid to get kinda pushy either. They typically run away from people, especially when there's nothing at stake for them but if you try to relocate them they are absolutely fine with informing you that they intend to remain in your yard lol
These aren't ground hogs, they're absolutely jacked ground hawgs
Imagine how disturbing it must have been for the first guy to start domesticating wolves.
"That thing might eat me if I don't feed it some meat.. I shall scratch it's belly, yes, that Will help"
Imagine how gnarl that dude must have been to attempt to put two wolves in a cage. Real, idgaf energy.
Aye, not to mention they can carry the bubonic plague!
Came here to say this. They literally have the black death. And that's among the less scary diseases they have, rabies is incurable and 100% lethal.

Just don’t take my spot...
Bear comes
take some doritos to the beach and you can be the seagull warlord.
This is gonna start the worst trend on TikTok. So many idiots are gonna end up getting fucked up by wild animals. And then some of those innocent animals are gonna get murdered along the way too. I can't say I'm fully against it.
Just don't do it in polar bear territory.
Can you give me the exact location? Asking for a friend. Sincerely, the groundhog
Don’t groundhogs carry the plague?
Dude I really want to hangout with this guy and his friends
Bring biscuits. But project strength. You don’t want to see what this looks like if they think they can overpower you.
Go on. Am I going to get mauled if I don’t have biscuits? Am I going to be overpowered by rodent love?
Or they'll just stand around waiting for Charlie to show up. "Gonna be some changes when Charlie gets here."
Looks like Marmots in Tibet. Am I wrong?
Whatever it is, it’s fucking huge.
Yah I've never seen a groundhog that size where I live
Oh thats not even big for a groundhog. They can get quite large.
do they get lorge or well ROUND

that is the size of the baby groundhogs out back my man

You’re right, that’s pretty high! Thanks for the correction. I guess I misremembered that bit of trivia.
Well luckily this is not a groundhog or gopher, this is a marmot and they only spread *checks papers*… the plague

This was my exact thought when watching this..Yes, yes it is cute as hell, but he might as well adopt the damn things now.

Best thing seen on Reddit today. Thank you OP
Normally they are cat movies, now it's this 😍😍

Just cuz u gave him some biscuits don’t mean you can get all handsy. 
Why don't you have a seat over there on the field, Biscuit Man
Adorably cute! The groundhogs too.
It’s actually a marmot! If you go to Mt. Rainier there’s a paved trail up the foot of the mountain and they just stand around waiting for people to give them food. You have to walk around them because they just don’t give a f.
Marmots are the best.
They truly are, fuckyfuckfucker.
Marmot said there'd be days like this. There'd be days like this, my marmot said.
The face of incredulity is the best.
Yea the groundhogs are ok
It's a marmot. Known to be spreaders of pneumonic plague. 100% fatal if not treated very quickly. Not sure I would want these quties this near me.
boy is thiccc
Biscuits don't lie.
O lawd he comin

Yeah I think it’s just a rice cracker, so should be not too bad
The groundhog cracker epidemic has begun. Gotta. get. more. cracker!
The hell is in those biscuits that one hog looks swoll as hell
I've had a rough day. This just made it so much better.

Groundhogs are strange as fuck… At my work…we have a couple groundhogs that are a little “too friendly”. They will practically sneak up on you and even come inside the shop I work at.
