Meh Tools (Meh Unofficial Chrome Extension)
10You can now find the latest release here:
https://github.com/TaRDy/MehTools/releases
There you will also find the instructions for installing the extension (I will also post them below).
The current features are as follows:
- Automatic Self Starring
-- Star every post by you on a page. - Select a Different Badge
-- Give yourself any of the badges (only you will see this) - Blame Button
-- Adds a blame button next to reply buttons and will add the current goat's name instead of the person you were replying to. - Custom Curse
-- Add a custom prefix to blaming the goat. Like "Curse you @studerc!"
Picture of current settings:
If enough people admit to using this, I will consider paying the $5 fee to publish the extension in the chrome store, which would make installing the app 100% easier. Until then, blame the goat!

Instructions for installing:
When you see a window similar to this, agree that you trust the extension:
Go to https://meh.com/forum and in the URL bar, you will now see a little goat image:
Click on the goat to adjust your settings, the window should look like this:
When you are done, click "Save Settings" to apply them or click somewhere else to leave the settings unchanged.
When all else fails, blame the goat!
Curse you all @Ryaneil, @marklog and @studerc!
Wow, @TaRDy... That's some impressive feat! Nothing Meh about it!
Hopefully someday you can release it as a Safari Extension...
I tip my cap to you!
But...but...what about FF?
@pooflady FF needs an update and %50 of your FF extensions are now incompatible. I know you just wanted to use FF for 10 seconds to look something up but FF needs this update and you need to wait for 4 minutes. FF needs come first. : )
Definitely puts you in the running for October's goat!
Nicely done. golf clap
What about for my Netscape or Mosaic?
@bigbo2003 I had to install Netscape to access an old we interface. I thought I would take it on a spin on the interwebs, holycrap it was fast (instant), just nothing displayed correctly.
@caffeine_i was going to say...i bet it was fast as shit loading 10% of each webpage. Dude that's awesome. This was the second time I got to use the word Netscape this week. On a roll. Can I use this in conjunction with my 50 free hours floppy disk of AOL internet, pending that nobody needs to use the landline?
"Automatic Self Starring" -- why?
@ardgedee why not? but really, this has been discussed as a desired feature by multiple people who have admitted they star their own posts every time anyways. If you are lazy, it just does it for you.
@ardgedee Most stars wins!
@curtise @pooflady No plans currently to migrate this to Safari or FF (or any other browser). This was just a project for fun/learning to kill some time over a down weekend.
@TaRDy Awwwwwwwwwwwww
Apologies if you took the time to install this, I just found out that once you restart your chrome (something I only do if the computer restarted) that it will disable the extension because it was not installed from the Chrome Store. I think this only happens to you if you are on windows.
It also appears there is a bug showing up today that causes it to star the parent comment instead of the reply nested below. For example, it is starring ardgedee's comment above, instead of my reply to it.
Maybe later today I'll just bite the bullet and put it in the chrome store to get rid of these headaches and to fix that bug.
Obviously, @studerc is to blame. Curse you, @studerc!
@TaRDy Have you fixed the star bug? Would like to reinstall and thank you!
@patti I will update later today when I get a chance
@TaRDy Yeah, mine never enabled at all. Sigh.
I laughed really, really hard at the self-starring feature.
Someday when I have free time I'm going to generate report of self-starrers.
@katylava HAHAHAHA What a funny joke, there's no reason to do that and definitely not a reason to publish that list anywhere HAHAHA
i like how only one person starred this making it look like i did it myself.
@dave and I created a Google Chrome extension a while back (https://github.com/mediocre/eggstension) that you'd have to be totally insane to install.
I also take no responsibility if you install it on your co-worker's computer.

Updated to v0.6 to fix starring issues :

I have little to no interest in any of the current features, but I installed it just to say I was an early adopter and to encourage you and maybe to get leverage on future enhancements. You go, @TaRDy .
How about an auto Meh button click, and a timer that opens the page at like 1am in case the 12am flood happens again?
