Scapegoat of the Month – September {CURSE YOU, @studerc}
8It’s that time again.
Our current and soon to be previous goat @marklog has done a very admirable job taking the blame for everything wrong with Meh, and everything else in our lives, but his reign must come to an end.
It'll certainly be difficult to top the reason behind @marklog's nomination, but nominate yourself or another user and why you or they deserve unmitigated scorn, derision, and endless @mention emails.
Submit your nominations and the new goat will be decided by Midnight Eastern. Good luck...?
Congrats to @studerc! It seems that even when you try to do something good people will still blame you for everything.
Also worth noting that I was a close second…

Is meh saying thank you to @marklog by sending him a purple speaker dock or some other suitable gift for his unselfish service to the cause all month?
I nominate @studerc for setting up the giant exchange of meh and being forced to listen to me and others moaning about some of the bad players. While it's completely @studerc's fault, he also deserves the goat.
@patti I Second That!
@patti I third that!
@patti I fourth that!
@patti I fifth that!
@patti I missed the giant exchange of meh sadly. But...I think he would make a good goat. Or me. Cause...apparently I love drama lol
I nominate @JonT because of how ready he was to have us nominate someone other than himself.
Also, if @JonT is not appointed new scapegoat by midnight tonight, I blame @marklog
Think about how much more @JonT has control over as an employee...So many more chances to fail
It appears that the new scapegoat is destined to be @studerc. Well, then let me be the last one to blame @marklog for his terribleness. Your reign of horror has come finally to its end.
@a Silly me. I thought it was a badge of honor not horror… : )
As mentioned in an earlier thread, I nominate myself, not because I deserve it... I just want lots of email notifications because I'm lonely.
@BillLehecka Bill, you think it's worth it, but it's not worth it. My Gmail is full.
@marklog recommend liberal use of the delete button… or make a meh@yahoo.com email to send it all to...
I nominate @kidsandliz, because that person wants more to complain about, apparently.
i nominate @kc5rbq. mainly because their thread happened to be right under this one when i looked at the forum. that's a good enough reason, right?
@marklog did such a good job - can we nominate him again?
@Kidsandliz ....thanks?
@marklog You should be proud… LOL besides @marklog has such a nice ring to it
@JonT Can we get an at mediocre email address as part of the deal?
@Ruger9mm if so, it had better be retroactive. Also, I respectfully request some permamence. Everlasting goat icon perhaps?
@Ruger9mm @marklog omg, I would love to have a [username]@meh.com forwarding email!
@kyle170 @jonT new product for meh?
I'm just going to take a second to thank @Marklog for permanently changing what happens when I read "TL:DR"
It is now always followed by, "I fingered my dog."
I'd like to nominate myself for scapegoat as I have done absolutely nothing wrong, and thus would make a great choice for scapegoat.
I got a letter (extra item) from both meh and woot recently and I am totally nonchalant about it. I also star my own posts.
I nominate myself. Why you may ask? Because, I'm Rico Suave, an up and coming stripper and electrical engineer. Yes, you can have the best of both worlds..And now it's up to you to decide which one of the two jobs isn't true.
@RicoSuave I second that!
And I've also spent ~$1000 on Meh "merchandise". Records state that. So if I'm not meh enough, then nobody is.
I nominate @starblind 'cause I can ;)
@Foxborn Nooo I am actually a good boy.
@Starblind but it;s the good boys who are secretly naughty boys. besides I just want to blame you for things ......... ;)
i second this nomination. because of that not-submitted cartoon for GISHWHES.
I nominate myself because I'm always late to these things.
Also, my friend asked me to feed his cats this weekend while he was away, instead I posted a craigslist ad trying to sell them. http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/pet/4645154001.html
@TaRDy That's just wrong....funny...but wrong. Have you managed to sell them yet?!
@SavvySapphire not until he gets his booze
@SavvySapphire two people tried to buy them, one asked way too many serious questions and wasn't happy when I informed them it was a joke, the other was entertained like a normal person on the internet.
Pathetic
Not it
@Ryaneil It would be fun if it just went back and forth between you and @marklog. I vote for that.
So uh, you're late @JonT. @Marklog's still got the goat. Who do we blame for that?
@Thumperchick @JonT is to blame for taking the day off
I nominate myself because this is the first time I've read the scapegoat game. I also don't participate in the forums often enough. And it's 1:30 in the morning and I'm still online. Also if you look at the previous sentence I started it with And. I'm also beginning to babble to please someone 2nd the nomination and let me go to sleep.
@joe43wv Go to sleep—you're drunk. No, wait. I'm drunk. I'm going to sleep. You stay awake.
@SSteve I'm not as think as your drunk I am.
@joe43wv you think this is a game? I am super serial about this.
@marklog
@marklog
@marklog
I wish I could tap dance.
It's been a great run! One final apology for all that's gone wrong in August.
Sorry about August.
@marklog Thanks Obama.
@capguncowboy did not get nominated for terrifying pretty little girls?
@speediedelivery shhhhhh
@JonT it is now September 2 and we are waiting….. foot tap tap tap
@Kidsandliz I'm still blaming @marklog for this.
@Mac454 It's so haaaaaard... to say goodbyeeeeee to the day before yesterdaaaaaaaaaaaaaayHEEEEEEEEEE
