@katylava you used to have a $5/month VMP subscription before we rolled it out as a free employee benefit. Happy to add you back as a $5/month VMP subscriber again if you’d like.

@PlacidPenguin Ah, neat. I hadn’t noticed that yet. I wonder how meh knows if the user works for amazon… (gonna check my sister-in-law that works at a 'zon warehouse)
@PocketBrain but do you mean it is literally funny or literally funny as shit? And that assumes those are opposing views. Is shit literally funny or is shit not funny as shit, not literally?
@katylava@snapster@therealjrn
Absolutely. In this case, I literally mean literally, as do I always. The meaning of the word has slipped, though, to become an enhancer at times, instead of its literal (literal) meaning.
Also, shit can be funny. It just takes a little context and a funny emoji.
@katylava@PocketBrain@snapster@therealjrn Use this plugin. It literally changes every instance of “literally” to “figuratively” on a page, and it literally makes more sense to read this way.
No no. That’s a lame take. It’s actually another experiment. The hypothesis is “wouldn’t it be funny if we did that?”
Umm does that comment indicate that the data is mixed and thus is not statistically supporting your hypothesis (see other thread) however due to confirmatory bias, escalation of commitment, or “I am not going to admit I might be wrong”… you are sticking to your guns in hopes that sheer force of will/hope will change the outcome?
Or is it just that your choice of definitional choices for “funny” on the daily survey forgot to include the not funny response of a sizable number of respondents because you forgot to field test the survey?
@snapster PS too late to edit - I am realizing that my comment is likely reading a bit more snarky than I intended so I apologize for that - although your responses on the other thread to those who don’t see the humor you seem to see strikes me as something less than your usually more thoughtful comments. Triggers me go looking for the why/what is driving that.
@wew that’s a great idea! Though I’d want my 5 (or so) poops retroactively added for all the times I canceled VMP before they got me to keep it by canceling VMP sign ups and grandfathering us.
@jimmyd103 There is a hierarchy to the badges. The rarest/most important badge you are eligible for is the one that shows up. Those who are both Kickstarters and VMP members (or ex members) will only have the K badge.
Fuck! I want the poop emoji! Stupid Kickstarter…
@capguncowboy I’m just posting to scope out my poopmoji.
@capguncowboy never mind! My reading comprehension is bad. I have a Vee-moji, which stands for Vinny!
@capguncowboy here, knock yourself out.

@katylava Ex-employees should get a steaming dumpster icon.
@medz

@katylava
Totally unrelated:
It’s that time of the year when networks cancel shows. So far one show I was watching got cancelled.
Decided not to watch the second season of Timeless, though it probably won’t be renewed.
@shawn hell yeah i’d like! not sure if that was on the same card i have today though.
@shawn
Besides the poop and Amazon employee badges, are there any other new badges?
@PlacidPenguin have you found any?
@katylava you’re all set. sorry it reset your joined date but mostly makes sense.
@shawn
I have yet to see my penguin badge.

It’s fun to pretend!
@shawn YAS! thank you!
@medz
There’s only one which I didn’t know about, but thanks.
@PlacidPenguin The amazon one? Is that for logging in with Amazon or something?
@medz
Wait. Actually, I knew about all of them.
Nah. It’s for Amazon/Woot employees. Look at @del’s profile. I noticed it there a couple of hours ago.
(I was looking for a certain thread, and since I had tagged her, I went to her profile to find the thread.)
@PlacidPenguin @shawn Or my asshole badge!
@PlacidPenguin Ah, neat. I hadn’t noticed that yet. I wonder how meh knows if the user works for amazon… (gonna check my sister-in-law that works at a 'zon warehouse)
@mfladd @shawn
Wouldn’t that just be the Patriots logo?
Or how about a deflated football icon?

@alphapeaches
Now if we can just get a broken or empty flask for ex mediocre employees
poop emojis are so 2017…
@somf69
so 2017 pre-adolescent male
https://meh.com/forum/topics/membership-revisited
the short version is that u can now buy free shipping from all 3 sites(meh.com, casemates and morningsave) for only 4.99 a month
those that were former VMP get the poop emoji icon to shame them into signing up
No no. That’s a lame take. It’s actually another experiment. The hypothesis is “wouldn’t it be funny if we did that?”
@communistjack testing your theory
@communistjack @regnowsin @snapster
Consider the theory confirmed. It is as funny as shit. Literally.
@PocketBrain but do you mean it is literally funny or literally funny as shit? And that assumes those are opposing views. Is shit literally funny or is shit not funny as shit, not literally?
@PocketBrain @snapster Literally
@PocketBrain @therealjrn ok well I’ve tried to rewrite that to extent now I’m confused. I guess we keep the experiment running.
@PocketBrain @snapster Certainly, undoubtedly, keep the analysis ongoing.
@PocketBrain @snapster @therealjrn Does “literally” mean what it used to? I feel the need to say “literally literally” these days.
@katylava @snapster @therealjrn
Absolutely. In this case, I literally mean literally, as do I always. The meaning of the word has slipped, though, to become an enhancer at times, instead of its literal (literal) meaning.

@katylava @PocketBrain @snapster @ticklescratch I feel like my life has been figuratively changed by that plug-in.
@katylava @PocketBrain @snapster @therealjrn Exactly.

@snapster
@snapster missed opportunity here, I’d have paid to get the poop emoji, and now you’ve give it to me for free. Ha! You fool!
Wait. I can get a poop Next to my name for cancelling vmp??? Where’s my dead goat to show I used to be a scapegoat???
@sohmageek
@dave said that he’s open to looking at concept designs for a badge for ex-goats.
@sohmageek you were supposed to bury that dead goat…
…is Inego Montoya. Prepare to die.
@miko1 Inigo Montoya was what immediatly came to my mind !! Not too thrilled about all the
answers.
Should be every time you cancel VMP and then re-up, you should get an extra poop.
That would quickly become a contest.
@wew I like this!
@sammydog01 And to think some people say I don’t know sh@t
@wew that’s a great idea! Though I’d want my 5 (or so) poops retroactively added for all the times I canceled VMP before they got me to keep it by canceling VMP sign ups and grandfathering us.
@codea83 Congratulations! I don’t believe ‘retroactive’ and ‘poops’ have ever been used together before—in English, or any other language!
@wew
@codea83 @wew …wait… retroactive poops…that’s not the reference “suck it up” refers too??
/youtube it’s poop again!
I’m an xmvp… no poop
/giphy no poop
@jimmyd103
It’s because you’re a KickFarter.
#kickfarter
@jimmyd103 There is a hierarchy to the badges. The rarest/most important badge you are eligible for is the one that shows up. Those who are both Kickstarters and VMP members (or ex members) will only have the K badge.
@PurplePawprints I guess I’ll have to add a
badge to this T-shirt.
@heartny @PurplePawprints
poop > K
but Cat still > poop.
Right?
@heartny @Kidsandliz @PurplePawprints
What about catpoop?
@f00l @heartny @PurplePawprints That poop icon does not look like cat poop. It looks more like a cowpie (although admittedly cow poop is flatter).
TLDR what’s up with the poop?
@jimmyd103 ex vmp.
