Gooses outlook on life

Post by roadwarriormfp »

Okies folks..thought id start this one.

Jimmy the Goose would have lived longer if his attitude was more serious and not so blase`.

We see him talking bout an accident as if it was a joke

makes a few jokes after his accidents.. roots the singer when he should be on duty..

No wonder he bought it!.. like Fifi said..."it was long overdue"... Max instead is all serious when at work and seemed to show some responsibility.

Mind you..theres a lot of people like goose in real life..who can only make it through the day if they joke about things...
We are 100% snafu....

maybe goose was just trying to look tough. or maybe he was scared and hid his fear by joking about death.

Well, having a sense of humor keeps ya sane, especially in THAT world

: We see him talking bout an accident as if it was a joke

Called forshadowing, a literary technique

: makes a few jokes after his accidents.. roots the singer when he should be on duty..

Actually, Goose was off duty, remember, the dispatcher welcomes Goose back to duty through the radio when he gets on the bike. Heck, even Max was off duty sometimes.

: No wonder he bought it!.. like Fifi said..."it was long overdue"

"But that's how he came at the world"

And Max said "Goose was so full of life"

See, Goose lived life to the fullest he could. The job was dangerous, and he knew the risks, so he lived larger than life.

... Max instead is all serious when at work and seemed to show some responsibility.

Yeah, and Max snapped.

: Mind you..theres a lot of people like goose in real life..who can only make it through the day if they joke about things...

True, but a lot of cops are like this in real life... kind of comes with the territory
