Hi. I'm medz. The goat for May 2016.
29If you're unfamiliar with the meh.com forum goat concept, you're supposed to blame me for everything during this month. For example, "The whole toilet roll just fell into the toilet. Dammit, @medz!"
Since some people seemed to enjoy some stuff I've posted in the past, you are also welcome to request a custom animated GIF from me or maybe ask me to give a picture some Photoshop treatment. Have a pic of your mum and you want it to look like she's making it rain in a strip club? Request it and I'll do my best. Or maybe not... I'm pretty lazy, so I'm not really promising anything.

Yes, this is going to be a good month. I can tell. Custom GIF Time.
@medz The whole, new paper towel roll fell into a sink full of water. I was going to blame the cat that knocked it there, but now I will blame you for the cat being on the counter top and then doing it. You happy now?
Howdy
I've learned my lesson about new guys trying to get with it in a dickish way so I promise not to attack the goat for any random reason although that's what i thought was going on...awe fuck...I'm just glad it didn't end up being me.
MOAR IRK GIF-A-MATIONS!!!!
@thismyusername Spoiling the magic.
@medz That. Is. Fucking. Awesome.
@medz Your goat is favorite goat!
@medz I had my suspicions about @matthew . I guess this confirms it.
@ceagee @medz @matthew (and just for fun; @meh)
I KNEW @irk is real. Now @hollboll can't ruin this for me like she did with Elmo (and no, I won't let her forget that she spoiled that. I'm still planning my payback)
@medz epic
@FroodyFrog Wait, what did @hollboll do?
@jqubed
@hollboll decided to disclose that Elmo is a puppet. >_<
@FroodyFrog No he's not!
He's a Muppet.
@jqubed
No he is not.
The Muppets are real.
Sooo ... who wants to tell @FroodyFrog?
@narfcake
That sounds ominous...
@narfcake Muppets are real. This is clearly not a puppet:
@narfcake
No idea what you're referring to, but that's most likely since nobody is willing to face me (especially since it's something ominous)
Sit down, @FroodyFrog ...
I know it may be hard to believe, but some things in life ... are made up.
@narfcake
I take it that you don't subscribe to the multiverse concept?
@FroodyFrog Universe 1 and Universe A.
@narfcake
I only have 2 responses to that.
1) Meh
B) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@FroodyFrog No one has told you about Futurama either? No wonder you're so odd ... :(
@narfcake @froodyfrog Do I need to separate you two?
@narfcake
I just finished watching Futurama again earlier this week.
My mind is a bit overloaded for now.
@narfcake
I still have mixed feelings regarding the series finale.
Also, this would make a neat poster:
@mfladd I am sorry.. did noone catch the irony of you offering to separate @narfcake and @froodyfrog ???
@mikibell @mfladd
@mikibell I was waiting for someone to point this out. Glad you did not disappoint.
(now I will wait for people to discuss the "irony" of this song.)
@medz We're not worthy.
@mikibell
http://shirt.woot.com/offers/irony
@medz Does that mean I can blame you for my willing participation in a yard sale until I realized how much work I am going to have to do?
@mehbee Why are you asking the goat's permission? Just do it !
@ceagee You're absolutely right. I blame @medz for my stupidity.
@medz What does it look like when @mfladd & @jaremelz are in the same room together?
@dashcloud
@dashcloud Wait for it.....
@dashcloud something like this...
@mfladd
@jaremelz That works too.
@jaremelz @mfladd
What about the sniper across the street?
@jaremelz
@mfladd
@dashcloud I blame @medz for the fact that @jaremelz and @mfladd have pwned the May goathood topic
@duodec
@jaremelz @mfladd Replying to the gif with them pointing guns at each other... the goat's @metz reply may be this (yes I know this has been used before but it so fits here)
@jaremelz that is almost the exact GIF i would have used.
@medz Nooooo.....you should have let her shoot me!
@mfladd I would sooner shoot you myself, but I'm sending the girls by to take care of it for me.
@medz I think that's the accurate one.
@jqubed ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I am NOT starring that! :)
@medz @mfladd @jqubed
@jaremelz
@mfladd Yep, yeah. My gag reflex.
@jaremelz
@mfladd You are such a bitch for deleting your gag reflex comment.
@jaremelz
@mfladd Not gonna touch that.
Nope.
@jaremelz
@jqubed
Ruuuuun...@jqubed......Ruuuuuuuuuuun!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@mfladd
Humans are food, not friends.
@mfladd what is that pic from with the headphones and ZD?
@jaremelz that's not real with the swords, right?
@DMlivezey @jaremelz
@DMlivezey "500 Days of Summer"
@mfladd wait, she no longer looks like ZD, guess I'll check the internets
@DMlivezey she is.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1022603/
@DMlivezey yup, not free legit anywhere, but defs ZD
@DMlivezey

In the spirit of gifs, this is the funniest one I've seen in a while, and a fitting end to a campaign.
@ACraigL Love it. Punched and the elbow. So awkward.
@medz And the head punch on the back-swing.
@ACraigL best gif since
Hey - it has to be your fault I now have a goat cat.
One leap to get there with a small amount of door knob action. I watched in disbelief the first time she did it.
@Kidsandliz That's a reason why I go with catshirts instead of a cat.
(Cute fella, though!)
@Kidsandliz Goatcat rules! I just have an insane chirping Birdcat. Still haven't recorded him. This is the face of crazy.
Also, damn you @medz why the hell did you let me get a kitten? It's like having a baby all over again.
@jaremelz
You should also blame@medz for the fact that the baloon in your picture isn't filled with helium.
@medz
Are you accepting unblame and/or thank you too?
@narfcake Whatever tickles your fancy, but there's probably someone more deserving of praise when something actually goes right.
@medz You gotta make it hard, don't ya?! I'm blaming you for that!
Sooo ... who should I triple unblame instead? I spent just over $5 today on two woot shirts and an unused driver's side mirror for my truck, which is really nice because the current one is zip tied and duct taped on.
@narfcake ...so are you in the market for gently used Woot shirts? I've been wondering if i should post some on the eBay.
@medz When am I NOT in the market?
Send me a PM at Woot with what you've got. Sizing, design, blanks, etc.
@narfcake How did you get the shits for such a good price?
@mehbee The shit is free; if you want some, it's in the sewers.
The shirts (and mirror) were from a thrift store.
@narfcake I've never found a Woot shirt at the thrift store. I saw on another thread that people could see that there was someone else in their county using Meh, how do they get that information? I'd like to see if there is anyone around here.
@mehbee On meh, if you click on the map, it'll zoom in to a more local level.
Woot isn't that sophisticated.
As for thrift stores, high population + t-shirt weather the majority of the year means greater odds.
@narfcake That and I'm not sure if there are a lot of cool people like me living in my area...lol. I kid, I'm am the definition of nerd.
@narfcake
If you go from duct tape to any other form of installation, that's a downgrade.
One day i'm going to order up a special edition Mercedes. The one with the engine held together with duct tape and zip ties. Straight from factory. Gotta save a little green first.
@medz how do i make my own gifs?
@CaptAmehrican if you have a video, you can use something like https://imgflip.com/gifgenerator to turn it into a GIF. There are lots of sites to covert videos into gifs, but i tend to use that one the most.
Then, I use GIMP (which is like a free photoshop) to edit the individual frames of the GIF. You can also use GIMP if you are starting with a still image. You just add a layer for each unique frame like stop and go claymation. There are probably easier ways, but that's what I do. Let me know if you have specific questions about using GIMP or whatever.
@medz Shall I even discuss the havoc I will wreak with this information.
@mfladd Sure! Might give me some ideas to steal!
I blame you for the fact that in 3 minutes (and a few distractions), I only managed to write down 16 usernames of Meh employees to interrogate.
Impress me.
@DrunkCat provide a photo.
@mfladd
@medz have at it.
@DrunkCat Oh, that's a good one. Busy at the moment, but I have all month. (be afraid)
@DrunkCat So far, I've just isolated you from the background.
Please find a green screen to stand in front of next time. Others are welcome to take this cutout and paste onto various backgrounds.
@medz I see the opportunity for some very bad things coming from this pose ;)
Starting off easy. (and G-rated)
@medz You are forever the best goat in my eyes for the Riker. Consider me impressed.
@medz
Those are great. Damn, I wish I had skills. The possibilities with South Park are endless (c'mon - Mr. Hankey). There could be a @DrunkCat thread alone with gifs! I also liked how you manipulated the legs pose in the pool gif. Who knew he was wearing red polka dot underwear until you exposed it.
@DrunkCat thanks for sharing the pic :) You are a good sport.
@DrunkCat Aw, thanks. You're probably just saying that so I don't take it any further. Seriously though, thanks for being a good sport.
@medz
It must continue. Love @DrunckCat - In my FESUSGL FFL! But it can't be over for.....
He knew what he was getting himself into - trust me.
@medz Are you kidding me? I'm trying to figure out how to make that Riker one a banner.
I’m blaming @medz for that it’s June already and the badge hasn’t transferred over to @dashcloud yet.
Then I’m blaming @dashcloud that @medz still has the badge.
Then I’m poking @dave.
@narfcake holy shit. It’s June.
I'd blame @medz for these headphones again and double blame for my stupidity of buying them, but my Cute Of The Month shirt arrived too, so all is forgiven. For now, at least.
@narfcake
Did it come with a human like it's supposed to?
@FroodyFrog You are so weird.
@narfcake
I completely agree. I won't even try arguing, but look at what they offer:
Unless the human is only given by the first T-shirt...
@narfcake that shirt… d’awwwwwww
I blame you for the rain
@CaptAmehrican Since 89.68% of California is still in drought status, I unblame @medz for the rain.
@narfcake I'm with you. Every single drop of rain is precious (eastern WA, also in a drought). There can be no blaming for rain. I just wish it was a bit more even handed about it; too much in some places, and a terrible deficit in others.
Unblame. Unblame. Unblame. I said it three times. What I say three times is true.
@Shrdlu sorry here on east coast we have had to much lately
@Shrdlu maybe we can blame him for the fact that raining in wrong place
@CaptAmehrican
@CaptAmehrican You are correct. Here in MD it's been raining for two weeks. My yard is like a swamp.
@KDemo I'm ready for a little rain. I get nervous when I start looking ahead to camping season and realize it's been terribly dry again. Without a little rain, we won't be able to, just like last year. Every day when I'm out I am seeing the leaves looking drier, more droopy. The only thing I'll take from the east coast right now is their precipitation.
@jaremelz @KDemo
Surely there are other things worth taking from the East Coast...
Today's blame: The project that I've been working on the past two weeks? The architect changed up the plans. So back to drawing board ...
Unblame: Pending confirmation, the changes lowered the fire requirements. Tentatively, the lesser demands allows for smaller pipe sizing, saving $0.71 per foot. Multiply by 7 ...
.
.
.
... miles.
And that's just one part of it.
@narfcake See? Pipe size does matter.
@medz The structure will be supporting at least 20 tons less weight with this change.
@medz @narfcake I've been told: "It's not the size of the pipe, but what you do with it"
I unblame you for the fact that the jury found completely in favor of Google in the lawsuit from Oracle.
(This was the second attempt by Oracle)
Damnit @Medz, I have a praise... you got "Lucifer in the flesh" out of the republican race(Direct quote from John Boehner)... however... We still have the republican in Democrat Pants suit... Ok... enough politics... (I Really try and it's SUPER hard to keep that off this channel... I'm very politically charged these days however--And my family is pretty split as to who they like... perhaps why I'm so charged these days.)
most importantly... Meh missed the religious holiday today, so it's your fault... and there is no Speaker dock... They could have sold this today...
I would have been happy then...
@sohmageek Until the next news cycle anyway. There are a lot of politically charged people this election its a sad, sad situation that I couldn't possilbly put the blame on our goat. America needs to wake up and that's all I am going to say on that subject. That clock would have been awesome. I would have used the force to buy it since that's about all I'd be able to use..lol..I blame @medz for my lack of Meh funds.
@medz
Mind taking responsibility for psychological things? I need to blame the fact that in my waking dreams, someone who I haven't seen in a year was choking me even though I didn't do anything.
@FroodyFrog Sure. Probably wouldn't be the first time.
@medz
In that case, I had weird dreams again last night.
Now I know why my body tries to not let me sleep when I'm sick; I have weird dreams.
Oh, and passing by my car yesterday, I noticed that I have a flat.
stop eating the damn wires, you're breaking the internets
and not like kim's butt
Here's another one: I bought a desktop from a for-profit thrift store last night. I rarely bother with thrift store computers since 99.99% of the time it's old shit ... but this looked to be the 0.01%. Clean power supply fan, and it's a Dell, so I was able to look up its specs: registered in June 2014, Windows 8, i3-3240 processor, 8gb ram, 1TB HDD ... not too shabby. No refunds, but I'll take a chance.
It works! The previous owner had a few community college papers, camera software, and some mp3s, which have all been wiped already. The configuration seems to point to this one from Sam's Club.
10x unblames to the goat; I bought it for $9.99 (+ tax).
@narfcake - And not too late to get Win 10 for free. Congrats!
@KDemo It'll been doing updates this morning, so it'll probably happen tonight. Last new folder created was December 27, 2015; I guess they got a new computer for Christmas and this got unplugged and put in the corner.
I admit that I upgraded one of my newer laptops to W10 last year and I still haven't played it that much. My older W7 and W8 tablets have seen more use.
@narfcake You are the KING of thrift store shopping! I have seen over and over where you have scored some great things. Congrats :)
(disclaimer - explicit language)
@mfladd Thanks! It's still all random, though. The high population here in SoCal means a higher volume of stuff, meaning a higher chance of finding something good (IMHO).
The Orange County Goodwill gets donations directly from Target and WalMart too; usually it's box damaged and customer returned stuff. It's been a long time since I bothered making a trip, though, as they charge $2.99 for t-shirts.
I just wanted to say goodbye to the May Goat. Thanks for the gifs. Enjoy your retirement on the farm. We will all be at the barn - beer or root beer will be served. I suggested serving wine, but @Carl669 told me to fuck off. I wasn’t getting into it with him (p.s. he keeps his vodka in the back - he thinks he’s sneaky)
@mfladd actually, i keep my vodka on my desk, in plain sight. so… have at it. just leave me some, ok?
@medz - i haven’t had a chance to blame you for much this month. so, here’s just a couple things:
VI. what the fuck? roman numerals? now you’re really getting out of hand @medz.
H. letters?? that’s the last straw you son of a bitch. fuck you and enjoy your fucking retirement.
I was going to put this piece here and blame you for my hitting the wall over the ridiculousness of the whole thing, but instead I'll just blame you for the fact that my head slightly hurts now.
Why am I awake?
Your fault.
@f00l
@medz
Ok am still awake. Wtf? Consider yourself dissed.
I bought a BOC with very little effort today, which probably means it’ll be super shitty. Preemptive blame!
@narfcake
In almost 7 years I still have not got one.
@FroodyFrog I’ve gotten like over 60 on just one of my accounts. #blamemedz
@FroodyFrog You must not be trying very hard.
@narfcake I hope I get a t-shirt. We’ll see.
@sammydog01
If only that were true.
@sammydog01 I kinda overdid it on shirts already.
@FroodyFrog It was smack dab in the top side-sale box on home.woot, was up for a bit already, I had to login, answer a phone call, and I still was able to purchase it.
In @medz we trust. #notagoat
@medz was getting out of hand anyway by the end of the month. (must have been the stress)
Enjoy you retirement on the farm, Wednesday !
@mfladd Me? Out of hand? Do you mean how i thought someone was dead or was it how i celebrate memorial day by shopping for appliances?
It’s still your fault, @medz, that my fuku has not moved from its location in Holt, FL since 6:37 PM on Friday.
Still not asleep yet. Must blame @medz for no good reason.
@narfcake
@medz Hah!, but a little late. I've been awake since 5:50am already.
I was trying find something else to blame @medz with while I still have a minute in my lunch hour, but nope. There was enough coffee left in the pot to refill my mug.
My 1 liter "mug".
So thank you for being a good goat, @medz.
@narfcake
I suppose there’s still time to blame @medz for unnecessary reasons, like how my truck got a flat tire yesterday, but given that a conference call meeting earlier at work lasted all of 3 minutes, three of the four shirt.woot randoms are on AA, and the CuteOfTheMonth shirt arrived (plus panda socks!), have a 6-pack of unblames for being a good goat instead!
@medz I see your picture has changed a lot since becoming the goat.
@sohmageek What was my picture before?
@medz.
I blame you for this.
@polarbear84 @medz
Since that explosion happened Oct 2014, shouldn't @Thumperchick take the blame?
@FroodyFrog If retroactive blaming is allowed, then so will pre-blaming future goats ... which means that you can be blamed. For everything.
@narfcake
Who said retroactive blaming is allowed?
I don't like the implication you're making.
In that case, I can blame @puppycat for stuff. (She's already distracted @thumperchick enough anyways)
@FroodyFrog It's not allowed AFAIK, but your comment implies that such is. Also, leave @puppycat out of this; she's cute!
@narfcake
When did I say it's allowed? @thumperchick was the Oct 2014 goat. That's retroactive, not future blaming.
@FroodyFrog Two way time travel.
@narfcake
I'm in.
Oh, and...
