Giphys can get pretty random. However, if you then edit your remark, you will prob get a new, different giphy, so just keep trying until you find one you like.
Also try changing up your giphy search terms.
Edit time limit is 5 min.
If you’re really not satisfied, and getting near 5 minutes, delete your post and then start fresh with it.
Sometimes the image search just won’t come up with anything that connects to your keywords. I love the randomness, but if you’re after something on topic, it can be maddening.
@InnocuousFarmer I believe giphy just hones in on one word instead of the phrase. I’ve tried searching on giphy’s website for a two word phrase. I would get results for each individual word… Hardly ever the combined words.
@RiotDemon I think there just aren’t any coughing goat giphys… at least not correctly labeled ones. It seems to be working fine with these other examples.

I blame you for our Craftsman air compressor died over the weekend. A replacement (probably an upgrade) was on sale @ Home Depot for only $99, but still.

@narfcake Pump appears to be stalled out. Just stopped while blowing grass/dust out of the mower. Maybe it got overheated & locked up the piston? Replaced the regulator last year with a cheap part from Harbor Freight; added just a bit of oil at the time.

@compunaut That’s an oil-filled compressor; if it’s not seized from a lack of oil and if your circuit breaker didn’t trip when it stopped (making it short), it’s probably not the motor or compressor head.
I’m leaning towards a jammed pressure switch.
See if you could pull the cover off the electrical box on the compressor, take some pics, and post it here.
Aaannndddd that trailer shows way more than I saw before I watched it. Gives away quite a bit. Maybe I only read a short summary thing and skipped the trailer. I don’t remember.
@f00l@melwin What is this ‘work’ of which you speak? I’ve been retired so long that I no longer remember. Sorry for the delay, I was napping. Me-eh-eh!
Sometime real soon I’m going to try the ‘Cardboard Camera’ function on my phone. The Google blog says ‘
VR photos taken with Cardboard Camera are three-dimensional panoramas’. Both Android and IOS can do it. https://googleblog.blogspot.com/
@OldCatLady I guess I should blame you for forgetting to try this. Cardboard is pretty cool. I bought a viewer for around $8 shipped. Was fun for a few days. Bought an inexpensive dongle so I can play using a ps3 controller. Maybe I should try that tomorrow. Now I just need to tie the cardboard to my head, haha
I read that as ‘look deeply into this fist’, so… unblame for that badass movie hero line on the off chance I ever have to punch someone.
@brhfl Everybody needs a motto.
Your image made my cold worse. Now I’m coughing. I blame you for this!

@InnocuousFarmer Do I just not understand how giphy works?

@RiotDemon Yeah, it sucks because if I want a red truck it will only get me a regular truck.

@ELUNO
do quotes work?

@f00l maybe?!!?

@RiotDemon Yes! It does work! HOORAY!

@RiotDemon Oh well. They can’t have all the giphys you want…

@ELUNO does it really? My goat coughing wad the glittery one from the other thread.

I really wanted to fix my typo, but I want to keep the randomness of the giphy…
/giphy "so torn"
@ELUNO that’s what I’m wondering. If there isn’t anything exact, that it’ll default to picking one word.

Damn. The edit window has passed and the gif still hasn’t loaded. It better be epic!
Oh well. At least it’s a spinning cat.
@RiotDemon lol, it did what you asked it to.
@ELUNO
Good job @f00l for suggesting it, and good job team for testing it’s semi effectiveness!
/giphy "cat high five"
@RiotDemon Now that is some team celebration!
Nail in tire, tire flat as pancake. 2 blames because also all the tire repair places are closed.
But 1 unblame because tire is prob fixable.
@f00l That sucks. Hopefully you had a spare or roadside assistance!
/giphy roadside
/giphy assistance
/giphy "roadside assistance"
@ELUNO
Like the second kind of assistance.
Thanks a lot @oldcatlady for making me lock myself out of my house this morning.
@hollboll Oh no! It’s my fault, totally, but what did you do?
@OldCatLady
She is guilty of knowing a goat.
/giphy goat happy
I blame you because I skipped lunch and I hadn’t noticed until now that I am hungry and there the cafeteria is closed now.
I blame you for our Craftsman air compressor died over the weekend. A replacement (probably an upgrade) was on sale @ Home Depot for only $99, but still.
/giphy shaking fist
@compunaut How did it die? Is it not building up pressure?
If it’s an older oilless compressor (DeVilbiss OEM), it’s probably the reed valve.

No blame for today, yet. Unless the movie I’m gonna go see is awful.
Today is a day off, woohoo!
You are spared for now. I enjoyed the movie.
@RiotDemon Which one was it? The one with Tom Hanks on a plane?
@ELUNO nope
/youtube don’t breathe trailer
Aaannndddd that trailer shows way more than I saw before I watched it. Gives away quite a bit. Maybe I only read a short summary thing and skipped the trailer. I don’t remember.
@RiotDemon Ah, that looks good. I actually hadn’t heard about it until I joined the movie league and saw that it had done quite well.
I’m blaming you because I have nothing to blame on you right now.
@OldCatLady, this thread is Your Fault.
Don’t try to walk away from your responsibility here. No hooky for you!
@f00l For eighteen more fucking days.
@OldCatLady
Fuck those daze!
/giphy fucking daze
Why do afternoons have to exist? Must be your fault.
@melwin
Why does work have to exist? Afternoons would be fine if there were no “work”.
@OldCatLady, I Call You To Account For This Criminal Fact.
/giphy guilty goat
@f00l @melwin What is this ‘work’ of which you speak? I’ve been retired so long that I no longer remember. Sorry for the delay, I was napping. Me-eh-eh!
@OldCatLady I will like afternoons when I’m retired, but that’s probably a really long way off so I will just have to keep complaining for now.

So my google cardboard has some other use besides sitting on the table looking all lonesome. Good to know.
/giphy “wile e coyote” acme
@OldCatLady
Double Unblame because Texas won and because Cute Baby Bevo is still way Cute.
Double blame because TCU and Texas Tech both lost. (Family loyalty).
Plus 2 extra blames because TCU lost in double overtime.
More blame because the finals at Forest Hills US Open were only on cable, I think.
1 unblame for Perfect Weather one month early.
