@mike808 the war has just begun

@deathbynoodlez Two words should cheer you up.
Hey now.

you’re an all-star

@deathbynoodlez And mediocrebot thinks humans are dumb. Our unpredictability is what makes us awesome.

@deathbynoodlez comiserations on being scape goat. You deserve the promotion/demotion.

That giphy is better than I could have hoped for.

@mike808 don’t dreeeeaaaam it’s ooooover

Mediocrebot rules. Hoomans are so dumb. Pressed F5 a thousand times. Still the robots won. Ha. Ha. Bleep. Blorp.

@AttyVette Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode “To Serve Man”. It didn’t end well

@DrunkCat Nah.

Don’t you, @mediocrebot?

@f00l You’re not missing much. There are much better options for catshirts at catshirtswoot.

At least it’s reassuring to see that no one else has bought one in a couple years.

@narfcake

I like that it’s so directly obvious in naming tho.

@f00l The logo itself goes further back. Before catshirts were in excess of 5% of catshirtswoot, they used the logo on an April 1. Little did they know that it was going to be so popular there!

@narfcake

Catplushienip?

/giphy plushie catnip

@f00l @narfcake best giphy ever

@f00l @llangley @narfcake And that would explain why cats can be crazy demented at times

@f00l @Kidsandliz @llangley @narfcake I think the original might be weirder.

/image cat sucking on vacuum gif

@f00l @llangley @narfcake @RiotDemon OMG! If I put a vac anywhere near any of my cats but one, I’d be shredded. One tolerated me vacuuming him during shedding season but he’d bury his head in my elbow. Can’t imagine I’d ever have a cat that would voluntarily do that. Someone was good with adding smoke to the original though.

@JnKL you usually have an hour to cancel.

@Kidsandliz So what did you win? Confirmation that you’re smarter than a state worker paid the lowest amount possible to “save” the taxpayers and to make up for endless corporate welfare tax credits? Quite the intellectual trophy you’ve got there.

@mike808 What’s with the last sentence sarcasm? I realize written word only can come across wrong but it sounds to me like you are putting me down for taking the time to look up the rules that applied to me and to make sure they used. And it mattered whether or not they were used. There was a lot at stake for me. Not only that it also means about 60 other people will have that fixed for them too.

@Kidsandliz I’ll bet that caught her off guard.

@blaineg Yeah it did. She didn’t expect me to know the rules or be willing to challenge her (especially after what she had done and said Friday). I just sat there and in a matter of fact voice read each rule and what I had that fell under that rule (I had each pasted into a word doc - the rule and then what I had that qualified with supporting documentation).

I suspect the problem is she really doesn’t know the rules because she then decided to involve her supervisor, telling me she was going to make sure I was permanently kicked off the program for trying to rip it off. I don’t think she would have called him in had she realized I was right and that he would then side with me. Sigh. I was trying to be incredibly careful as I still have to work with her.

@mediocrebot Oh great. A new obnoxious auto response triggered by the words “t h e b e s t”. Caused me to delete my comment before I ran out of edit time so I can redo it without those words. BLAME for the goat and BLAME for the bot.

@mike808 Your comment still irritates me. My interpretation of part of what you said is that it is ok to do a crappy job if you are poorly paid or it is a crappy job, and that I, as the customer, have no right to expect anything better than that. I disagree.

I’ve had crap jobs before. In fact, with a college education, I took one not all that long ago because it was what was available and I needed to pay down medical bills left over from my 2 major cancers in one year gig. It was a summer, manual labor, in the hot sun in a parking lot in the deep south job with the plant vendor for a big box store. So hot I literally had sweat dripping off my eyelashes at times. That job sucked big time. I hated it. And all that was irrelevant. I was hired to do a job and so I did it well enough that it was considered the top store in the region. Because that is what I was supposed to do.

In my opinion, crap job, good job, doesn’t matter. When hired to do a job then we have a responsibility to do a good job. If we hate the job we can vote with our feet. If financially we can’t, or we can’t find another job, then we have the responsibility to continue to do our job as well as we can until we can find another job. I expect no more or less of others than I expect of myself. End of story.

@mfladd Well that is too bad. If you can see who the buyer is (if they leave feedback) then you will be warned about their behavior for the future if your paths cross again. That seems kind of risky though to snipe with 1 second left.

@Kidsandliz @mfladd

Getting sniped when one is sniping … I try to be philosophical about it.

Re timing Automated sniping.

@Kidsandliz

you will be warned about their behavior

As a classically trained sniper myself, I can only be upset about being out-sniped (1 second is very risky)

@Kidsandliz @mfladd Hmmm… Could be a mehtizen with Fuko/IRK experience. Their skills are sharply honed by dealing with pointless Captchas.

Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.

@f00l @Kidsandliz
Unblame: I was able to snipe this one though. I wanted this even more. It is my faves!

Sorry, can’t get a bigger pic of it.

@mfladd Glad you got a win you wanted. Is that a pop bottle lid? I take it you collect vintage (soda) pop stuff?

@Kidsandliz That is a Frostie Root Beer sign. It’s about 9" x 12". I hang vintage or reproduction advertising signs in the kitchen.

@TheFLP And so what jokes have you played and still have to play?

@Kidsandliz

Ugh. If I’ve ever attempted one, I don’t remember it. Maybe when I was a kid, if I was knuckleheaded enough to think it was funny. (My childhood memories have more holes than a lace doily convention, so I can’t be sure either way.)

No, I’m more likely to be the victim than a perpetrator.

@mike808 @deathbynoodlez How about the waiting for them to ship?

Loki does not do this while I am at the house - he only goes on table clearing chew fests while I am away. And I need to figure out how he is unlocking the gate! If he is smart enough to figure that out, he is smart enough to stop pooping in the kitchen

SOCKET POPPIT STAHPIT

@mike808 should of asked noodlez for his address and sent them direct. Customer service isn’t very fast.

@mike808 @RiotDemon Noodlez doesn’t want to give out his address. He doesn’t trust us and I don’t blame him.

@Barney @RiotDemon I did get his address and sent it to Meh directly from my orders page. I didn’t add it to my “ship to address book” before ordering, so it wasn’t an option to ship to after the order was placed. Hence the immediate message to Meh CS. That was promptly not acted upon until after the opportunity to provide such service had passed, or so I was informed.

@mike808 @RiotDemon Strange… I wouldn’t trust you. Anyway, I bet CS was busy. They usually are.

@Barney @mike808 @RiotDemon No way, those guys sit around drinking coffee all day.

@Barney @mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 Clearly, the shipping address should have been placed with the order. Princess Mike wants us to blame meh, when they could not have known. SMH

@mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn Wow, Princess Mike? Maybe meh should replace his dead goat with a tiara.

@Barney @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn
So, how many Meh Face Popsockets are any of you sending @deathbynoodlez? Thought so.

@Barney @deathbynoodlez @mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 Hey! Lay off! I’m sending him the same amount I did last time!

@Barney @mike808 @RiotDemon true at first i wouldn’t give my address to people because i didnt trust them, then it became more then just about getting meh faced popsockets but also releasing them to the world. When they finally were released i did tell a few my address who asked for it because after half a year on this forum fighting along side everyone (or against their hate) i felt the very least i could do was trust the people of this forum.

@deathbynoodlez I’m glad that you have made some friends on the forum who you feel comfortable enough to exchange addresses with. There are a lot of good people who hang out here. Also, I was very happy to see the popsockets, uh, pop up during the mehrathon.

@Barney @deathbynoodlez @mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn

FWIW, on “popsockets sale day” (was that April 2?) there was some sort of high purchase limit.

I ordered 4 sets and could have purchased more.

@Barney @f00l @mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 So what you are saying is I could have not sent as many as 10 sets to @deathbynoodlez?

@Barney @deathbynoodlez @mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn

So what you are saying is I could have not sent as many as 10 sets to @deathbynoodlez?

therealjrn said 42 minutes ago

Dunno. Ask TPTB.

Cool that you contemplated doing that.

Did you send some?

@Barney @deathbynoodlez @f00l @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn
I did. That’s what I was asking Meh CS to do in the first place. Try to keep up.

@Barney @deathbynoodlez @f00l @mike808 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 No you did not, you asked for the order address to be changed either concurrently or after the fact. But I’m not going to quibble about something so simple. All you had to do was have the address there in the order. You had ONE JOB snowflake…

@therealjrn I was responding to @fool asking if anyone actually sent any Meh Face Popsockets to @deathbynoodlez.

Customer Service has ONE JOB, too. As in an actual job they get paid to do. There are instructions on the order if you have any questions or a problem to contact Customer Service.

And I followed those instructions when I got DBN’s address after I had placed the order. I can’t possibly have entered a ship to address I did not know at the time I placed my order, dumbass.

I will just go with Plan B and reship them myself to DBN. NBD.

So, @therealjrn, how many Meh Face Popsockets did you actually send to @deathbynoodlez? None? Thought so.

@fool @mike808 @therealjrn everyone stop arguing! I am the scapegoat! This is all my fault! Conversation done! Use this thread to blame me and only me.

@deathbynoodlez unblame. They just arrived today. Due to therealjrn being a hole, I won’t get the labels on them and to the post office today.

They will probably send them to you from STL by way of Boston anyway, like they went from HOU to STL by way of Indiana to get to me.

8 pairs for you bro. I’m keeping 2 spare pairs for myself. I feel I earned them, posting every day in support over in the daily deal topic for months.

What do we want? popsockets
When do we want them? now!

@deathbynoodlez @mike808 awww…sweetheart…

Even better, put it near the counter for your self-starred posts that got turned into a link to them.

There is no “even better” about the loss of the homepage clicky-face calendar.

/giphy Fie!

@Kidsandliz I know you have had some rough kitty months. Hugs and best of luck to you.

@JnKL Thank you. I am spending all my MD Anderson get me out of collection money so I can keep my June apt on her right now as I won’t be able to live with the guilt if failure to take her to the vet would cause her death due to this being something we can treat. These three cats saw me though 3 major cancers, raising a very troubled kid whom I adopted as a grade schooler, and a few other of life’s catastrophes. They definitely provided me with a lot of emotional support and at times were the only thing that kept me sane.

Other vet tested and no pancreatitis. She’s seriously anemic, blood work sent out. Up to nearly $600 so far on her - but at least today she voluntarily took a lick of ice cream so unblame for that. The first food she has been interested in 6 days. And campus kitty has an abscessed tooth root - BLAME!! - so surgery for her next week. I told that vet it needs to be warranty work since he theoretically pulled that tooth (which had already been broken off when I snatched her off of campus where someone had dumped her 3 weeks before graduation) so all he is charging me is for the sedation (sort of unblame).

UNblame - She seems to be getting a bit better. Blood work from second vet came back pancreatitis and some flea borne (and can also be spread cat to cat) blood parasite that is causing the anemia. I am betting my cat that died in Dec also had that parasite. He was really anemic and the vet blamed his kidney disease even though his kidney numbers were good with sub Q fluid. Same vet that misdiagnosed and failed to diagnose this cat. Switching to the vet I just used. Hopefully no more preventable cat deaths.

@eonfifty you’ll get wet if you go in.the ocean anyway.

(This is mixed heavy rain and heavy hail)

I suppose"the ugly" would include some of the wrecks I passed. Hope no one was badly hurt. It did not appear so.

@f00l You sure that isn’t a picture of computer “snow”? I hope you were looking at that through your house window and not through the car one (then it would be bad bad bad taking photos and driving ).

@Kidsandliz

I was parked under shelter at the time I took that hail pic.

@f00l Well good then your car doesn’t look like a golf ball. I stashed my car in the parking garage near me to avoid hail and flying crap in case one of the tornadoes came through here. Fortunately not.

@mfladd

@mfladd I really hope that you didn’t punish the dog. He was just doing what instinct suggested. At least he ate the part that was most likely to feel pain, and put the bunny out of its misery (so to speak).

I’m sorry for you, and can see that it was an upsetting experience. I’m sending you some mental hugs. XXOO

@Shrdlu Thanks. I didn’t punish him - but he knew I was not happy. I know that he was just doing what was natural. The bunny probably didn’t have a chance between the two dogs chasing it. The imagery was a little disturbing as he kept chewing that poor body into pulp. It looked like a well used Ty beanie baby just hanging from his jaws

@mfladd @Shrdlu

When new suburbs go up around here, with any kind of nearby pasture, bunnies are all over the place.
And then come the cats and dogs, and the bunnies move along to elsewhere.

FWIW, I think the hunter animal instinct is to kill the prey quickly. I hope that happened in this case.

The local Thumper population will quickly learn to avoid your yard. You can help this along but letting your pups out back a lot, so that the dog smell is everywhere.

Or get some “fox urine” or the like from local pest like removal people (the kind who deal with possums, rats, and squirrels) and start spraying it around.

Also might inspect your yard to see if you have a bunny nest somewhere. Or is there a fence hole near to an adjoining yard with a nest?

If you have a fence problem, you will need to fix the fence hole anyway, or that PomSky will find it.

I hope your Pomsky doesn’t develop the fence-climbing trick.
Prob won’t. It’s kinda rare. But some (a few) huskies can climb woven metal fencing, so keep an eye on that.

I bet that Pomsky will be a demon ball fetcher.

@mfladd @Shrdlu

BTW we could certainly use some more of your puppy pix!

@f00l @Shrdlu I think the bunny hole exists under the shed. Yoshi use to run around it for ages, spending time underneath until I blocked his access with stones. He by himself could never catch a bunny, but now there is a pack mentality going on and the poor bunnies better watch their six.

p.s. I found an amazing deal on tube and tow package on ebay. It has almost sold out in a day. Tube day for the kids is coming!
