Description
Have you ever heard someone ask, "Did somebody get your goat?" It doesn't mean that a person literally and physically took a live goat from you. It's an expression that means somebody upset you. An old story talks about a race horse that could sense his owner's tenseness just before the race. To calm down the horse, the jockey put a goat in the stall as a companion. The horse did indeed calm down, and as a result, won the race. Unfortunately, somebody who wished the horse to lose removed the goat before one race. The horse was more than upset that his goat was missing and lost the race. Hence, it was bad if someone "got your goat."
