Goat Day 30: Ask a Goat Anything Volume 3 & Bat Attacks...
6Good afternoon, or morning, as it were. Today we're doing the last Ask a Goat Anything during my tenure as a goat. I hope I'm as helpful as a nun at Spring Break.
YOUR QUESTIONS
-@somahgeek decided to ask a shit-ton of questions, because... I don't know.... Here we go. You rapid fire ask, I rapid fire answer.
"What's your relationship with Irk?" Estranged
"What is the 1 item other than fukubukuro do you want to see for sale at Meh?" An outdoor movie screen that's 12'... Dammit Woot, you were so close!
"What's in your glass tonight?" It's always seltzer.
"Are you excited to relinquish the title of Goat?" Honestly, not really. I've had fun being the goat. Morale seems to have improved. I'm not being blamed for too much stuff. Things are looking up!
"What are you going to do after your goutiness is up?" Did they find a cure for gout? On second thought, I have gout?
-@YahSah15 asked: "What happened with you and the purple lady? Not Barney, the other one. I forget her username and the thread where you both pretended(?) to hook up. :)" I chatted with her for a bit, and then we just stopped chatting. That's what usually happens with me. We'll talk, and then one or both parties just stop chatting. I'm not exactly an exciting guy. I just play one on the Internet.
-Christ, @somahgeek asked another question.... "What is the next item you'll bath with? I really don't recommend knives for that."
I don't think I'll "bath" anything. Now, what could I "bathe" with next? I don't know. I think neoprene sleeves are the pinnacle of bathing. Anything else seems derivative. Although knives in epsom salts? Now you're talking.
-@narfcake asks: "There hasn't been an AA shirt here for 87 days already? WHY?!?" Give it 3 more days, then you can say it's been a quarter of a year. Then I think you have every right to complain.
-@dashcloud writes: "What's something you've accomplished lately that you're proud of?" I slept for 6 hours the other night. Does that count?
-@thisismyusername writes: "What is the world's fastest land animal?" A Black Friday Early Bird Shopper.
-More rapid fire, this time from @communist:
"have you gotten a fuku? Yes, 4 of them
"if yes what was in it?" Stuff
"what about BOC's from that other website" Over 20 of them. Closing in on 30, I think. I just received one today, and it came with a Michael Jackson Bobblehead. I collect bobbleheads. I have a ton of them at my desk at work.... I don't feel comfortable putting this bobblehead up...
-And finally... Let's hope @joelmw makes it count.... "What's the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?" I can't answer this question unless you clarify if it's an African or a European Swallow....
And that's a wrap on questions. Thanks for asking!
BAT-ATTACK!
This weekend, I was sitting in my house, minding my own business after watching my Lady Flyers win at the Times Union Center in Albany, and I hear a doorbell and a quick knock.... I take a second to get up, I look through the peephole of my door, and no one is there. Weird. I go outside, and I see this posted in my front yard:
Ignore the garbage in the yard (Stupid snow melt)... But yeah, someone just decided to post a Batman logo sign in my front yard and ran away. To this day, I have no idea who posted it. It's a mystery... I wonder if this will become a thing now.
TODAY'S DEAL
I would've gotten this if I didn't get the Netgear router a couple of weeks ago. Oh well. What are you going to do?
TODAY'S QUESTION
Have you ever done something so sneaky that you never told anyone about it? You can use fake names and places. We're all friends here.
Well, tomorrow's my last journal entry. I better make it count. Until then, BLEAT!!!!!

THANK THE GODS there's only one more day of you goat.
I recently interviewed for a position with a firm I knew the guy beside me wanted to work for. I told him about the opening (not my interviewing for it) and helped him say what they wanted to hear. I asked for a crazy high salary knowing he would be more conservative. He got the job as I hoped. A couple months later, we're noticeably understaffed at this point, I went in search of a different job offer. I brought the written job offer to my boss. It was a lot of money but it was far away, too far really. anyway, my company couldn't afford to loose me so they matched it and promoted me. This only worked because I'm awesome to begin with and they know it. I was due for a raise at the end of the fiscal year but it wouldn't have been as much as the offer and I got the promotion way earlier than my years of experience would normally allow.
@RedHot Wow, that's sneaky. I hope you're on our side.
@RedHot Oh yeah, The guy that moved was coming due for the promotion I got. He makes less than I do now, at his new job so I think it worked out. We're still friends, in fact he loves me.
Regarding the swallow, that was the answer I was looking for. Well done, goat.
Just tell me you've kept the Batman symbol up. Please?
@Thumperchick I moved it to my back yard. I was afraid someone in the neighborhood would want to swipe it.
@BillLehecka What? How will neighborhood Batman find it? They chose you and you moved the sign. sad face
If I told you people all the sneaky, Ninja-like things I do, then I wouldn't be too very fucking sneaky about things, now would I?
@Pavlov I see what you did there. Pretty sneaky.
@BillLehecka DYAC I didn't mean gout, I meant goatiness (which it tried to autocorrect again...)
And Bath was on purpose not a language issue... :) I guess I just was trying to goat you into an old joke...
@BillLehecka Bobble head? That's much better than the *off paper craft light, it doesn't even produce light... I was all excited thinking it was a letter... How they like to play with the emotions... That... And The crap was totally crap... Not even 1 pen/pencil this time.
