    passionate love
    Любовь - зла, полюбишь и козла!

    Meaning: Love is evil, you can occasionally fall in love with even a goat (that would be a good evil joke of fortune).
    Context: someone has fallen in love with someone who couldn't have ever be thought a good choice.

    Another month ends. All targets met. All systems working. All customers satisfied. All staff eagerly enthusiastic. All pigs fed and ready to fly.

    Козёл (literally, “goat”) also means something like “jerk”, “bastard”, “ass” when speaking about a person.
    Please correct my English
