Goat absenteeism + March nominations
8Wasn't @mfladd suppose to be the goat of the day? Do we blame @lotsofgoats for that? Or unblame because @jaremelz wins every argument by default?
We need someone more responsible next month. Or is that irresponsible? Either way, I guess.

i nominate @narfcake because this.
@marklog I served as shirtgoat already.
@narfcake and?
wow wow wow wow wow wow wow I was going to do this tomorrow because these always get done so damn early
@Lotsofgoats It's a short month. Also, you've already managed to dodge your goatly duties for over half the month.
@narfcake no I just managed them, these allegations are slanderous
@Lotsofgoats
Want a lawyer to help prove your case?
Didn't @Pavlov still have part of a month to finish off?
The list was never included to include @mfladd.

Them again, @mfladd has a valid reason for not having been a goat for one day. Granted, I came up with the reason, but still.

@FroodyFrog @mfladd confirmed after the lists were made.

I'm thinking a nomination for @MrsPavlov instead, because Fuck it.
@narfcake @mfladd @jaremelz
I remember that discussion. (Although i didn't realize that today is already the 26th.) That's when I realized that certain members here made an impression on me.
Of course, given the mood I was in at the time, and that i was a bit, how shall we say it... "preoccupied" at the time, I phrased stuff weirdly (compared to how I usually am)
Also, @MrsPavlov made an effort to represent Mr Shrugs correctly. It's not her fault that she wasn't able to after a 3 attempts it still didn't go through.
If anyone is to blame, it's @Lotsofgoats for not only not goating half of the month, but for ruining how Mr Shrugs is represented.
I believe there is a precedence for someone to have 2 months of goatdom. Although, I suppose March could be split into 2 shares for people who only did 1/2 month. (@Lotsofgoats , and @Pavlov)
@FroodyFrog seems to have a lot of time to spend in the forum. I nominate @FroodyFrog.
@Teripie
@Teripie
Just so that people don't get the wrong impression of me and think that I don't do anything all day, I may as well chat the air.
For 36 hours a week, I am one of the busiest poison dart frogs on this planet.
The rest of the time I'm as careless as an acorn on the tree in the center of the hidden forest on the island in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. (It's near the passageway to Shangri La which has the final decent to Atlantis)
@FroodyFrog i change my nomination, goat.
@FroodyFrog that leaves you 132 hrs/week to fulfill goat duties.
@carl669
scoff
As if that makes a difference. Look how @Lotsofgoats used all the free time this month for goat duties.
@medz For gifs and trying to kill @joelmw. (Or succeeding, are you still with us @joelmw?)
Do people need reminders of @medz's gif gift?
@KDemo I don't think I can claim that masterpiece as mine.
@medz - I won't tell if you don't.
@KDemo Holy crap. It is scary that I have no memory of that.
@medz - Ha ha. Welcome to the age of . . . um, what age was it again?
@KDemo I'm only mostly dead.
@joelmw - Slightly happy, mostly sorry to hear . . .
@stardate820926 for successfully entertaining us with a goat internship this month.
@KDemo @stardate820926
Seconded. Especially loved the Star Trek references.
@KDemo Too early. September, when it'll be the 50th anniversary of ST.
@narfcake @KDemo
Was gonna ask what will be some to commemorate one of the biggest milestones in Sci-fi history.
Then i decided to actually Google it.

I also noticed these stamps:
I like stardate820926 for March Goat. She is highly entertaining. Make it so.
@KDemo
@mfladd -This goat has legs.
@mfladd @KDemo
Never saw Voyager or DS9. I feel lacking in the sci-fi part of my mind.
@FroodyFrog
@mfladd
I really want to, just haven't had a chance to buy the box sets.
@medz and @mikibell you are too funny with the votes. But your time is coming.
@mikibell, who continues her stealth gifting. Watch your mailbox, you may be next on her radar!
@KDemo i second this. she gifted the boy 16 gajillion pounds of dumdums and now i keep finding lollipop sticks all over the damn house.
@carl669 how's the dentist bill ? Maybe @mikibell is a dentist ??? the plot thickens. or not.
@mfladd so, if someone were to send your children lollipops, do you think it is a goatable offense? So far I have only sent lollipops with permission to have addresses or to public registries. 😀
@mikibell It sounds like @mfladd is jealous and wants some lollipops.
@mikibell lollipops are a very goatable offense.
@ceagee ?
@mfladd hmm that doesn't sound like a no though.. ;)
@mikibell it is not a no. Of course you could.
@mfladd see ! I knew it !!
@carl669 And how many of those sticks are from the ones you ate ? The kid is not eating dumdums alone. Just saying'.....
@ceagee actually, i have yet to eat any of them! really.
Absent Goat - my apologies. Here was my situation (or night of hell). I was away for business for 3 days. My first flight was greatly delayed. So I missed the last flight for my destination. As I had to be home for the wife to go to work I had to rent a car for a 3 hour drive home. Final arrival time - 4:00am. Then had to get the kids ready for school. This then progressed to a little well earned sleep. Followed by another trip to the airport to retrieve my bag no one would fetch for me last night, and return of the rental car. Fuck - I hate business trips and flying.
I blame @lotsofgoats for all of this.
(disclaimer - he never even put me on the calendar)
But if it all makes you feel better today.
p.s. I am also backing @stardate820926 as goat for a couple of reasons.
1) she has a username I have to fucking copy and paste.
2) she did a good job as goat of day.
3) she will be accountable, and I really want to fuck around with her, and post more sci-fi gifs.
(ok, maybe the first part of 3 could be misconstrued by some of you deviants)
@mfladd
@mfladd Yikes! :(
@narfcake @KDemo - I forgot to mention that the rental place didn't have live rental agents, but that I had to talk to an associate over a computer kiosk. I said does this car have EZPass for the tolls - yes sir they do - great. It's late. It's dark and I am tired. I go thru tolls - this morning I see that you had to slide a tray out for it to work on the tolls - no one told me. I let hertz have it this morning. It should be fun to see what happens with this (fines) - not.
@mfladd I wonder how the agent is recovering after dealing with my (understandably) cranky you.
Glad you're home, now throw the kids in bed and get some rest!
@mfladd - Oh, no. If I were you, I'd move, change my name and get a burner phone.
@mfladd ummm... Looks like they caught up with you...
@mfladd so you're blaming me for not signing you up for a thing that you didn't wind up doing? you're welcome.
@Lotsofgoats you would do better to just accept the blame as your role requires.
@mfladd I accept all the credit and praise for handling this situation appropriately, thank you so much for the input!
@Lotsofgoats Whatever.
@mfladd Shouldn't #2 automatically disqualify her?
@Mehrocco_Mole Ha :)
No, she was amusing all day long. This is what we expect out of a goat.
Let's see what she can do with a month.
@acraigl for probably the longest running thread now- it also happens to be shameless self-promotion (not that there's anything wrong with that).
(The thread in question: https://meh.com/forum/topics/got-an-old-woot-account-lying-around)
@dashcloud a shameless self-promoting goat? Don't nobody want that.
@ACraigL I think a talented self-promoting goat would be perfect after stardate. Let me make a note - @dashcloud remind me.
@legendornothing for goat because why the fuck not?!
also i might be drinking so maybe that is why.
@connorbush
Thanks for not sharing with the rest of us...
@connorbush WHOOO YEAH LETS MAKE THIS SH*T HAPPEN
@legendornothing Settle down pup. Your time will come - promise.
p.s. you are doing so good on your promise of not posting topics for a month - well done.
@mfladd I hate to be that guy (no I don't) but it is technically "you are doing so well on your promise..."
@legendornothing Don't be that guy. Trust me.
@legendornothing techically, if you were March goat, you could not start a new thread until March 3rd..imagine being blamed and only able to reply.. Sounds painful. Btw, technically, @mfladd could be correct. You are doing good by not starting threads, no discord, no arguments, no complaints.
@legendornothing I was just starting to like you. Don't fuck it up.
@sammydog01 I won't. I think? Yeah.
@legendornothing It's ok to chill out,kid. Really.
@jaremelz
Ha ha ha
P.s
Goat bump. Because this race is close with @stardate820926, @medz, and @mikibell all in the running at this point. All are great candidates to mess with for a month. And if nothing else we will have future goats already lined up.
It would also be nice to see some mehnonites who don't usually vote in these elections do so now.
@mfladd *mehniacs
@mfladd thanks for reminding me to vote for the other two!
@froodyfrog You can only escape this goaty hell for only so long. Your time will come.
@mfladd
It was either @Barney or @KDemo who once said something which protects me.
@FroodyFrog You do know you're not a protected species here, right?
Your best hope is that you remain just mediocre enough to stay out of the spotlight. So be like @ignorant.
@narfcake LOL!
@narfcake it's not easy being this mediocre.
@narfcake
Nothing to do with my species.
It's more of an element which, based on its worth, means i can't be goated.
Your suggestion if anything, would be deadly for me.
@FroodyFrog We've had others barely survive goatdom, we're willing to take risks.
@jaremelz
https://media.riffsy.com/images/1efae0a16d8d01a96ab5d3d7ceef2c48/raw
@FroodyFrog Yup
@jaremelz
gulp
@FroodyFrog I barely survived goatdom due to scars inflicted on me by @jaremelz. @christinewas, @KDemo, and @stardate820926 (aka copy and paste girl). Narfcake is also to blame.
@mfladd @jaremelz
@FroodyFrog Hey, that's mine. Even after all the abuse I heaped on him.
Oh wait, the fucker loved it and reveled in it. He's a bit sick.
@jaremelz
Found it on Google Images, linked from Pinterest.
@FroodyFrog OMG...you just scored comic points!!!!!!!
@FroodyFrog But mine is signed (yeah I'm taking another chance to show her off,what, she's outstanding and all mine! )
@jaremelz
That post where you showed her off the first time haunts me sometimes. (Keep in mind though, that not many things haunt me. That part of my brain is vacant.)
@FroodyFrog Why would it haunt you? Don't get me wrong, I'm capable of it apparently. Some have dared call me disturbing.
@jaremelz
For what it's worth, I don't find you disturbing.
@FroodyFrog Screw that. She is very disturbing. But in a very good way.
@mfladd
Can't watch that now. Currently in a "quiet" environment. Ruining that would not reflect well on me.
@mfladd I wouldn't mind disturbing RiRi a little bit.
@mfladd - Pretty sure you misspelled "stars".
@KDemo nope. copy and paste, copy and paste.
I still think Mrs. Pavlov would make a fine goat. I mean, why the fuck not?
Actually, why not a Mrs. and Mr. Goat? This allows @Pavlov to finish his month and someone to see to it he does.
Not quite sure how to vote, on this topic or if there is a special one but I vote for @medz because he seems very gifted
@mehbee Star the post where he is nominated. And do it again next month because it's March already.
@mehbee @medz is a good choice. He has some sick original gifing skills. I would love to see what he has for a goat month.
Can I nominate myself?
@Goatcrapp I believe you just did.
@stardate820926 congrats, you've been goated
@MEHcus thanks....I think
I would just like to say you're welcome to everybody, as my managerial acumen clearly led us to our new goat
^5 go team
