That's all Goofus ever does.

And since one poster somehow got ninja'd after 25 minutes...

Gallant always returns his shopping cart to the cart corral.

Goofus steals it and rides it down a hill.

When Gallant get's ninja'd, he quickly edits in his response to the ninja'ing post.

Goofus leaves the post unedited for YEARS, and even then he just adds "sorry" to the end of the post.

Gallant hollers posts that break the rules of the forums.

Goofus hollers random people on the forum for giggles.

Gallant is loyal and respectful towards his friends.

Goofus killed several friends for blinking incorrectly.

Gallant takes several lessons before taking the controls of any aircraft.

Goofus, Too Dumb to Live, flies an aircraft without understanding what the controls do and crashes the aircraft.

Gallant has revised for the upcoming tests using practice papers.

Goofus doesn't even know about the test.

Gallant respects women.

Goofus didn't write this post, however.

Gallant doesn't pressure his kids to be like him.

Goofus forced his kids at gunpoint to walk exactly like him. They were a millimetre off from the distance between his two feet while walking.

Gallant takes out the trash every day.

Goofus tries to retrieve all the pennies from the fountain.

Gallant, at a pharmacy, prescribes the correct medicine to patients ensuring it's properly labelled and the instructions for medication are clear.

Goofus gets his meals out of the city dumpster.

Gallant understands that not everything is black and white, and that everything is nuanced.

Goofus believes everything is black and black, and therefore there is no point in not bring as terrible as possible since everything is evil.

Gallant the clown makes kids laugh.

Goofus the Clown hides kids in his crawl space... whaddya mean, too soon?

Gallant knows his audience at comedy clubs, and always plays to them.

Goofus doesn't tell any jokes, because he knows something is going to be offensive to someone in the crowd, even something as innocuous as "Hi."

Gallant leaves his house hours before leaving on a jet plane.

I hope you get tiny bits of eggshell in all your omelettes for the rest of your life!

Goofus charges to his plane at the last minute screaming “GET OUT OF MY WAY!”

Gallant spends time practicing his newfound meta human powers, learning all of his strengths and weaknesses.

Goofus jumped off of a building to see if he could fly. He couldn't.

Gallant perfects cold fusion and provides free, clean electricity to the world.

Goofus powers his house by burning his neighbours' bones.

Gallant is an atheist but respects people who follow a religion.

Goofus runs a cult of angry, rude, disrespectful Atheists. Instead of worshipping a dumb god like everyone else, they worship Goofus. Yup.

Gallant always changes the toilet paper if he uses the last of it.

Goofus steals his neighbor's newspaper for toilet paper... then returns the used paper the next day.

Gallant always keeps it clean.

When Goofus talks, it sounds like R2-D2.

Gallant puts a lot of effort into his cosplay.
