This is the easy to find/link to topic of meh’s past scapegoats.
I’m keeping commenting off to keep it easy to read.
Original Goat - David Gray (@davegrey)
Who has the dubious honor of pushing the kickstarter over the funded mark.
2014 Scapegoats:
July - @Ryaneil
The first scapegoat voted for by the people!
August - @marklog
TL:DR @marklog fingered his dog, and our hearts.
September - @studerc
Who earned the honor by setting up the first Mehrican Fuku Exchange.
October - @Thumperchick
Who really needed to be knocked down a peg.
November - @cengland0
For win/losing the Fuku lottery and getting a Goat Starter Kit from meh.
December - @lisaviolet
Who proved to all of us that she is the best lisa… at least when compared to the other one.
2015 Scapegoats:
January - @joelmw
Who talks the talk, a lot.
February - @Barney
With an immutable love of purple, @Barney is rocking the Goat of Love in purple style!
March - @BillLehecka
Who won his nomination with a bath of neoprene and a kiss.
(He also wrote a goat journal entry for every day of his reign.)
April - @carl669
Because fuck you, that’s why.
May - @narfcake
The shirt pusher. (aka: ShirtGoat)
June - @Pavlov
For telling us that Abe Vigoda is still alive.
@Pavlov loved being goat so much, it almost killed him. Don’t fret though! He made it through and came back to us, awaiting his second shot at goatdom.
July - @Starblind
For being the winner of @Pavlov’s Fuko contest - now proud owner of fukobukuro.com and utsubukuro.com.
(and other general awesomeness.)
@Starblind also spent the entire month getting us to play Irk’s Breakfast Quest! and forever making every other goat look lazy by comparison.
August - @mfladd
Probably because he doth protest too much. He wants goathood, he just doesn’t want us to know it.
September - @sohmageek
Who organized the birthday TPing of Mediocre HQ.
(and a bunch of other stuff that @marklog laid out for us.)
@sohmageek put together a goat scavenger hunt for his run and in typical goat fashion, never told us who won.
October - @jaremelz
Who channels @carl669’s ability to tell hecklers where to go, felted a freaking Tiny Tub Mummy, and told us the story of a goat.
(The community also wanted to goat @JonT for abruptly abandoning us, but that was not to be.)
November - @christinewas
Who is our first legacy kid! (She’s the daughter of the infamous @joelmw and holds her own enough to have earned the nomination for “witchcraft, verbosity, and being a legacy kid. And any other assorted crimes I can come up with later.”
December - @TaRDy
Who finally got goated for making a Chrome extension to self-star your own posts. Also has the honor of being the person nominated the longest before becoming goat.
2016 Scapegoats:
January - @thismyusername because there’s still not an “is” in there and everybody still gets all confused and shit
February - @Lotsofgoats
Who was nominated in a fit of vengeance for nominating @thismyusername for January.
That pack of unruly goats wearing one suit of clothing managed to live up to its name, however; by getting other people to serve as scapegoat for a day.
March - @stardate820926
For proving what a great goat they were during their temp tenure in February.
April - @KDemo
For being a longtime community mehmber.
May - @medz
For being our resident gif master general. (He also attempted to kill @joelmw with gluten…)
@medz used his goatdom to make an awesome offer that wasn’t utilized nearly enough.
June - @dashcloud
For not quite making the cut in May. (Really though, overdue!)
July - @brhfl
For, as @christinewas put it:
August - @sammydog01
For creating the first ever Irk tribute doll!
@sammydog01 used their reign to host a contest for another of her creations, too.
September 2016 Scapegoat - @OldCatLady
For many reasons, but really the eye-candy pics.
October - @ignorant
For being helpful to other mehmbers… or at least trying to.
November - @PlacidPenguin
For somehow making the 2016 presidential race happen.
(Amid much controversy.)
December - @f00l
For complaining about the thread being early, or for having one of the highest altruism scores here at meh.
@f00l spent their goatdom as a poet.

July - @pooltoywolf, our resident inflatable wolf, shared the Diesel of the Day with us during their reign.

October - @reclaimercube, who asked for toothbrushes and got it instead of $1 Macbooks, puppies, or Escalades filled with cash.
