goat threshold

The level of alcohol intake where you cross the point of no return and spend the evening 'goating around', self control is lost and a hangover is almost inevitable.

Anything after the goat threshold is the birthplace of "It seemed like a good idea at the time".

1. Once you pass the goat threshold there is no return, now hand me the beer funnel.
2. I'm so hung over today, I really crossed the goat threshold early yesterday.
