@CaptAmehrican I suspect with the inclusion of Casemates traffic, we could see an increase in traffic here. I noticed a similar consequence when MorningSave started to roll. Not necessarily a “flurry”, but a regular smattering of new names. Many have stuck with us.
@CaptAmehrican Nah, there’s always been a supply of fresh goat-worthy candidates whenever we needed one. Why, I think there’s several in line right now unless they disappear in the next 3 weeks.
Of course, it’s been a while since we’ve had a good rage-quit. I hate to see one, but they are fun.
@joelmw There’s a regular flow of ragers. Mostly folks who didn’t read the item descriptions properly, came at 7pm expecting to get a fuku, got in a snit because shipping was delayed by 22 seconds… whatever. You know, can’t please all the people all the time.
@therealjrn to be fair, he said you don’t want to know.
I’m surprised that people haven’t heard of goatse… It was everywhere. Right up there with lemon party, tub girl, and two girls one cup. Don’t look those up if you haven’t heard of them. And don’t yell at me if you do.
@therealjrn No I didn’t, those who know would just take for the absurdity that it is and chuckle. Those who didn’t know should remember curiosity killed the cat.
I think it sucks that they can’t be bothered to hand out goat trophies. Failing that, I think @Dave or @snapster should at least come up with a suitable icon for us.
@thismyusername Do you realize how many goat trophies would have to be purchased and then sent out? Do you know how much this would cost? I mean, poor @snapster would probably have to do another kickstarter just for this.
@ruouttaurmind I agree with you, but it hasn’t happened and I don’t see it happening anytime soon, if ever. They are now involved with other new playthings. The Goats seem to have been forgotten.
@Barney Well, we need to get Sarah Mclachlan to appear in one of those late night infomercials, tugging at the heartstrings and pitching “for just a few minutes of dev time you can save the poor, forgotten, downtrodden red headed stepgoats.”
@thismyusername target had goat cookie cutters after christmas for 10 cents each
The nice metal ones.
They could send those or even have the goat prize be a lifelong goat trophy icon
I formed what dignity I had left at month’s end into a badgelike lump and keep it on my desk next to my ball of rubber bands and a small dish with some spare change, binder clips and thumbtacks. That’s good enough for me.
Goats get the blame they deserve. Nothing more.
@medz Oooh, that’s cold! That only became true after @JonT and @hollboll “forgot” to send out the trophies.
@2many2no I know. Had I known I wouldn’t get a goat trophy, I wouldn’t have even tried to murder @joelmw.
/giphy bitter goat
@medz @2many2no
Well, look at that! It’s so pretty when it’s polished.
Looks real good on my mantel, too.
@Barney jokes on you, I just CSI’d that pic to get an image of your face.
@medz
Ah, but the joke is on you, Mr. Watson, that is NOT the real goat trophy!
This is:
@Barney
@Barney I made my own damn goat trophy.
@medz Haha. You need to find a new hobby.
@Barney I did have some help.
@medz The best kind of help to have.
Don’t hold your breath.
@Barney
If we all held our breath, we would all turn purple.
Got something against purple?
/image purple cloth
@f00l Well played.
Please go ahead and prove that to me by holding your own breath, @f00l. I’m waiting…
@Barney
Holding breath.
Halfway there.
@f00l
/giphy total recall
@mfladd My favorite thing from one of my favorite shows.
@mehbee
@MrGlass He’s just so yummy!
@mehbee
Who is that? What show?
@f00l The show is Supernatural and the character is Dean Winchester, actor Jensen Ackles
@ruouttaurmind
Senator Robert Kennedy world have wanted these badges for us.
@f00l
/giphy you’re awesome
But they get to suffer by having a Christmas tree all year long?
@ELUNO it’s only for January.
@RiotDemon Christmas in January!
It would be a good way to keep from having previous goats renominated.
@mehbee or we could start having repeat goats as at this point most of the regular members have already been goat

@2many2no Damn. I think I missed that. When was it?

@CaptAmehrican Isn’t this how inbreeding begins?
I get the feeling of dejavu…
didn’t we decide it should be an upside down goat with x’s for eyes?
@thismyusername Or a tombstone with a G.
@mfladd @thismyusername Either would be good…
/image waiting waiting waiting
It should be goatse line art.
@cranky1950 what is that?
@therealjrn you really don’t want to know.
@cranky1950 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goatse.cx
@cranky1950 eww. Why would you being this up?
@therealjrn
@cranky1950’s reputedly cranky.
Before there was Rickrolling, there was Goatse.
@therealjrn In 2004 goatse is what the goat would have linked when the whiners got out of control.
@cranky1950 Was meh here in 2004? That’s is a disgusting thing to post.
@therealjrn I didn’t post it, you’re going all snowflake over a mental image.
@cranky1950 You’re not going to admit you crossed a line, so we’ll just have to move on. You nasty, nasty man.
@therealjrn to be fair, he said you don’t want to know.
I’m surprised that people haven’t heard of goatse… It was everywhere. Right up there with lemon party, tub girl, and two girls one cup. Don’t look those up if you haven’t heard of them. And don’t yell at me if you do.
@therealjrn No I didn’t, those who know would just take for the absurdity that it is and chuckle. Those who didn’t know should remember curiosity killed the cat.
@cranky1950 I guess you taught me. Wooee.
@therealjrn Oh stop it.
@cranky1950 No, U stop it.
@therealjrn no U
@cranky1950 U
@therealjrn @cranky1950 Oh cool! A fight… I’m telling that the two of you are fake squabbling LOL
@therealjrn OK
We could have an Ex-GoaT Revolution.
Ex-GoaTs Unite!
I think it sucks that they can’t be bothered to hand out goat trophies. Failing that, I think @Dave or @snapster should at least come up with a suitable icon for us.
@therealjrn I would totally decorate my goat with Halloween stuff.
Oh well.
@RiotDemon Awesome…
/giphy goth goat
@therealjrn A goat trophy would be nice, but a badge would be sweetness.
@2many2no are you telling us waiting on trophies to “let it goat… let it goat… can’t hold the bleat back anymore”
@thismyusername Do you realize how many goat trophies would have to be purchased and then sent out? Do you know how much this would cost? I mean, poor @snapster would probably have to do another kickstarter just for this.
@Barney Goat Trophy Kickstarter… the $75 pledge can include a year of VMP AND an Irk plushie?
@thismyusername And for $75.99 you also get a goat trophy.
@Barney I’d be thrilled with badge. Which would cost… maybe a few minutes of dev time?
@ruouttaurmind agreed : )
@ruouttaurmind I agree with you, but it hasn’t happened and I don’t see it happening anytime soon, if ever. They are now involved with other new playthings. The Goats seem to have been forgotten.

@Barney
That a pic of Sarah McGoatlan?
@thismyusername target had goat cookie cutters after christmas for 10 cents each

@Barney well they found the time to christmas tree some of us… Not that many goats to emeritus goat… but yes they seem to be forgotten…
If all of the Goats from the past
Thought all that they did had amassed
Anything good,
They misunderstood.
There’s no recognition at last.

@2many2no Hey up yors too.
I formed what dignity I had left at month’s end into a badgelike lump and keep it on my desk next to my ball of rubber bands and a small dish with some spare change, binder clips and thumbtacks. That’s good enough for me.
