@thumperchick is on vacation and I need to blame someone (October 2018 Blame Thread)
23Hi, @woodhouse here. Apologies in advance for being stuck with me, but your goat this month is gonna be @reclaimercube. Feel free to shame them, or whatever. Apparently they did something about macbooks, according to @narfcake.
Shine on, you crazy diamonds

OMG @PHRoG I MADE IT !!!
@reclaimercube Welcome to the club, fucker.
@therealjrn is this a pants off dance off?
@reclaimercube HA!!
I just KNEW it was all your fault I fell asleep last night and so I didn’t get the last stealth black shirt I needed!!
And, before you try to scapegoat this…I can assure you, the lack of sleep for over 24 hours, mega doses of oh so stimulating pseudoephedrine and ohhh so relaxing hydrocodone with the obligatory tussin thrown in to the mix, had absolutely nothing to do it with!!
Oh, also, congratz!!!
/giphy celebration goat
@PHRoG my wife saw the thread and asked what it meant. I told her no one knows what it means but it sounds provocative. My co-workers asked if I get prize.
@reclaimercube isn’t the neat lil’ goat avatar your prize?
@reclaimercube yes we get a nice shiny trophy… I’ve been waiting on mine since Jan 2016… it will be here any day now.
@reclaimercube - i blame you for the fan being on and me being cold, but it’s all the way across the room and i’m far too lazy to get up and turn it off.
@carl669 hello! Get a Google home mini. cheap and worth it
@reclaimercube
This wasn’t accepting blame. This was offering a solution…
Although it is an incomplete solution as you would need the Google Home device and a device to control the fan that is hooked up to Google…
Oooh fancy goat necklace.
Where to start…BLAME: It is October and I still have to use my a/c. I should be in hoodies and long sleeve t-shirts by now.
/image hoodie weather
It was an unusually quiet day at work, but I’m very tired. It must be your fault.
@reclaimercube: I hope you know all of this is your fault. And those stupid toothbrushes. I blame them too.
@shahnm are you always this sweet or just happy to see my name?
The Goat family tree is growing…
@reclaimercube, it’s your fault I’m not GoaT.
/giphy congratulations
@jst1ofknd
/giphy There’s always next month.
@narfcake
Yeah and I think I’ll keep up the campaign. I feel my typical indifference creeping in.
@jst1ofknd @narfcake No, next month belongs to @blaineg.
@reclaimercube, it’s your fault that my schedule is blown all to hell. It’s only Monday and already I have no idea what day it is or where the @#$% I am. Which will continue for the rest of the week. BLAME!
Also, it’s your fault that I voted for the winning goat. I’m not sure that was supposed to happen.
@TheFLP Haven’t you realized by now that with every post I could literally crank out meh-made blurbs without even thinking about it? When I was in college I was going for an English major and what did I decide to do with it instead? Literally EVERYTHING ELSE BESIDES THAT.
However, it did give me a gift that I continue to cherish until this day. It gave me the uncannily good ability to literally crank out words on end about nothing. I promise everyone I know that I work with has asked for my help when it comes to college papers and they just stare at a blank screen trying to type.
However, I do have a limit to my sanity. I was asked to help with a biology paper and then it was my turn to stare longingly hopelessly at the screen praying something would come to me. Alas, uh…
@reclaimercube
Anything that will keep you out of trouble.
Blame: I tried to use :asterisk_symbol: in a reply and it didn’t work.
And it still isn’t working. What the hell?
Oh, so the square one works? Meh.
I blame you that I was up until 3 ish or later last night finishing packing, then they came to help load the truck and have to get up at 4:45am tomorrow to actually drive off. I am beyond exhausted. If there is a
fukoIRK tonight I will so miss that boat.@Kidsandliz brother kids, I will continue campainging for Irk plushies for you
@Kidsandliz got your back should IRK happen!
You’re on your own if it’s a squatty potty tho!
@reclaimercube get outta my head!!
/giphy insane membrane
There’s a new blame sheriff in town.
Blame: I’m still awake.
Blame: @woodhouse forgot to give me the ex-goat badge
@katylava look, i’m new here
@katylava i figured it out, happy now?
@woodhouse yay! Don’t feel bad, it wasn’t your fault.
@katylava yeah, it was @reclaimercube
@katylava @woodhouse New? ROTFLMAO… Not that new…
Blame: Stayed home so as to not spend monies but just bought memory foam pillows online… Plus blame because I couldn’t determine if the morningsave or amazon ones were better so went with amazon because they were cheaper. What does “Essence of Bamboo” mean anyway?

/youtube Blame it on the rain
@narfcake
You’re the second person to give me that as an answer when I complained about the rain (in Spain in the plain). But I’m not blaming the rain. We have the Goat for that.
It’s raining again — different song altogether. Blame!
Blame: now I’m distracted from studying…
@reclaimercube it’s your fault the forum usually gets quiet during this time when I want people on.
@jst1ofknd I need answers in your thread
@reclaimercube
It’s your fault I haven’t given you answers.
/giphy evil grin
Unblame: This strange wet stuff is falling from the skies here in SoCal.
Unblame:
Supposed to be below 90° all week.
Blame: I need to reach town officials and they aren’t responding to calls or emails. I’ll have to make more calls after lunch.
Blame! The black cat may have strolled out the door. He’s always been indoors. Or maybe he’s just found a terrific hiding place. Last time it was in back of the dryer.
@OldCatLady Hope you find your kitty soon!
@tnhillbillygal He came strolling out of the library about two hours later, sat down and yawned all the way down to his tail. Thanks.
@OldCatLady Glad he showed up. They can find the weirdest places to hide and then won’t come out for anything.
Blame: My back hurts, 37 bruises, one skinned shin and I am really, really tired. My crap is all now in another state. Landlord here is coming tomorrow to find ways to keep my deposit. Rumor says he finds ways to keep it all. I plan to turn on the voice recording on my phone and then ask him if there is anything else that needs done to get all my deposit back or whether I am set. Small claims court will only be 190 miles away.
@Kidsandliz
Good luck tomorrow!
@jst1ofknd Thank you.
@Kidsandliz Here’s hoping it all goes well!
@Kidsandliz
How did it go?
@jst1ofknd He claims I will be getting all my deposit back, sending it sometime in November. Perhaps he thinks if he waits a month or more we will forget he said he is sending us our deposits back?
Preemptive blame for my
20 minute6 hour commute into work tomorrow.(Project is about 400 miles away.)
Preemptive blame for my
20 minute6 hour commute leaving work tomorrow.Fleet week. Blame not enough hours in day.
Unblame cool ships
Blame my feet hurt
Unblame men in dress uniform
@CaptAmehrican Isn’t the schooner race like in a week too? Now THOSE are the cooler ships in my opinion. Wish I was there for that. Be crew on something. Was 3rd captain once on one for that. Crew several other times.
Yes. Here have a picture of Godspeed which is in for fleet week. A replica of the Jamestown Virginia vessel.
@CaptAmehrican When I volunteered at Jamestown I sailed on that (well and did maintenance on it too). And on the Susan Constance.
@CaptAmehrican Love it! (I’d love it more if I didn’t have to twist my neck to see it tho)
Blame @reclaimercube because my cat’s litter box has stopped working like it should and this particular cat’s poop smells especially stinky. Either that or they changed the formula of the cat litter we have bought for over a year.
/giphy litter box
@tnhillbillygal I have 3 cats in my house. I feel your pain.
@tnhillbillygal I discovered Dr Elsey’s litter. It’s on AMZN, comes in 40# bags (delivered!) and works far, far better than the perfumy or special odor masking stuff. And it’s about half the cost. I also have 3 cats who allow me to live here.
@OldCatLady That’s what we’ve been using. Just seems like it isn’t working the way it used to. Either that or my cat’s super power is stinky poo
@OldCatLady @tnhillbillygal
Your locally owned Pet Supplies Plus also carries it for about the same price as Amazon. You can get discounted GCs and coupons to help get lower than Amazon prices. Just not enough to cover a year-round steady supply.
Haven’t seen the $13 for a 40# bag sale price in over a year. Mostly in the $17 range these days.
Am looking at trying the PSP house brand clay-based litter ($7/40#) to see if it can replace Dr. Elsey’s Precious Cat.
@mike808 @OldCatLady @tnhillbillygal I’ve been using the Tidy Cat lightweight litter. But I just have one small housecat who poops just a little bit.
@mike808 @OldCatLady @therealjrn @tnhillbillygal I use fresh step multi cat. That was just fine until they trashed it by making everything fabreze and changed how they made it. Now it sucks. Also looking for different litter that is not going to break the bank and works in a multi cat household.
@tnhillbillygal If the stink is new, get your cat checked for parasites. I have found my cats’ poop goes from not so bad to really stinky when they have parasites. That they are indoor only is irrelevant on the parasite front. Fleas (even one, even if they don’t normally have them) can do it, a mosquito bite can do it…
@mike808 @tnhillbillygal Amazon has one big advantage: I’m a little old lady, and having a 40# bag delivered to my front step makes a big difference. My mailperson hates it, though.
@mike808 @OldCatLady Yeah, my mail doesn’t like me between the cat litter deliveries and the packages from Japan that I have to sign for.
I Blame @reclaimercube that @mikbell introduced me to the Goodwill Auction site, and I can’t stop looking for cool stuff.
Unblame: I just won 10lbs of Legos for $24 + shipping!
@mfladd Woohoo!
On the topic of Goodwill, blame to @reclaimercube for me only buying one Woot neckstretch Anvil shirt today that’s not remotely close to my size.
I did find some good reading material in the books section, though, including this for 50 cents:
/image cat cam book
https://www.photographercat.com
So there’s an unblame.
@narfcake @reclaimercube Why the hell would you buy a shirt that doesn’t come close to fitting you? Does it now become a Xmas present?
I also just noticed that one of the minifigs they showed in the pics is the exact one above in the gif!
@mfladd Because it was $1 and I like @fablefire’s designs.

What are Those Foxes Saying?

(I’ll be repurposing it into a tote.)
BLAME: the dog has apparently figured out that if he gives himself a bath in the middle of the night it inspires me to go to the bathroom, at which point he can work a little big-brown-eye stuff to get himself a midnight walksies. I’m yawning all the way down to my own tail…
BLAME!!! Just moved. Got here last evening. Comcast says it will taken until 3-5pm WEDNESDAY (and today is Friday) to have my internet up and running. They claim it is turned off at the box, have to come out, and this is the soonest they can get there!!! (No choice on service, this building is only wired for comcast). So now I am sitting in my car outside a medical building and two times so far university medical center cops have asked me what I am doing. Um using your internet… Duh. Can’t you see my laptop resting against the steering wheel with an active screen while you are talking to me through my open driver’s window? At least they haven’t made me leave. Sigh.
Blame: Headache
@tnhillbillygal
Sorry you have a headache. Here you go…
/image aspirin
I blame @reclaimercube for missing the point. I don’t think Goats are supposed to self-blame while they’re on duty.
Blame again - can’t find stuff I need since I moved!! And my cats are freaked out. And my back still hurts!
@reclaimercube, it’s your fault it’s Monday again.
@jst1ofknd
It’s his fault that we have a Monday every @#$% week.
@TheFLP
At least this month…
@jst1ofknd
I’ll cut him some slack if he prevents next Monday. It’s a tax deadline, so my head will be ing.
blame: My house still needs to be cleaned. No matter what I do, it always needs to be cleaned. Maybe I should look into minimalism.
/giphy clutter
@tnhillbillygal I have begun to embrace minimalism and I really like it - seriously.
@reclaimercube, it’s your fault it’s Tuesday again.
@jst1ofknd Unblame:

I have nothing against Tuesdays, personally.
@narfcake @TheFLP
It’s not Saturday…
BLAME to the goat for ignoring the blame thread!!!
Blame: I have found myself getting caught up in UFC fights and shows after Saturday’s big event. I had watched the first Ultimate Fighter and would watch fights from time to time but after we got rid of our cable/satellite, I hadn’t paid it much attention. Now I found Ultimate Fighter on Hulu and am watching commentary on YT of past events and drama behind the scenes. Your fault @reclaimercube
@tnhillbillygal I LOVE UFC !!! I even hosted the fight Saturday night at my house
OK unblame. I haven’t broken my record yet but at least I have tied it
@Kidsandliz
I’m six days away from mine.
@reclaimercube, blame it’s Wednesday.
@jst1ofknd I dare not /giphy hump day.
@jst1ofknd @narfcake Pshaw; it’s all filtered down to bland & inoffensive now. Not like ‘mouth blown glass’ porn it gave us back in the day…
/giphy hump day
Blame: Forgot church was having a special event tonight. We got there an hour late so turned around and left. Unblame: We went to McD’s and got a coffee.
Blame: Car blew an oil gasket and had to get towed to the shop to be repaired.
@jst1ofknd Yowch.
/giphy that’s a pretty penny
@tnhillbillygal
Towing is supposed to cost me $7 (24 hour roadside assistance through insurance covers a 15 mile tow and I had to tow it 17 miles).
The leak is coming from the front of the engine this time in a place that you apparently have to take the engine apart to get to it. While he’s there, he’s going to go ahead and replace the timing belt (or whatever) and the serpentine belt and a couple of other things that I don’t remember.
He quoted me about a grand to fix it all.
@jst1ofknd @tnhillbillygal
I’ve changed a head gasket over a weekend last century on an '82 Accord. I’m very mechanically inclined, and I had the shop manual to guide me step by step. And I got lucky with the part being in stock at a parts store. And the special head gasket sealant.
You pretty much have to take everything off the engine to get to the part that busted. Then put it all back together. With everything torqued just right, in the right order, lined up exactly right, with no extra parts when you’re done. It’s at least a full day’s job.
So yeah, it’s best left to a professional. Helps to know if it’s the head gasket or the valve cover gasket. Valve cover is easier of the two. You could get a quote from another mechanic shop if you think it’s way out of line.
The head gasket is the seal between the block and the “head” which is the hunk of metal with tubes in it for the pistons. It has all kinds of grooves and holes for oil and valves to go through and is probably the most complicated single part of the motor. So it’s squished at high pressure, goes from air temp to 200 degrees, vibration, and hot oil under pressure (flowing to cool the engine). If it springs a leak or cracks, hot oil sprays everywhere and then when there’s no oil to cool your engine, it pretty much dies permanently after that.
So it’s good its still salvageable. A new motor would probably run you about 5 grand. There’s all kind of gadgets and monitors and efficiency doodads packed into the engine area of cars these days. The days of a shadetree mechanic are long gone, alas.
Good luck!
@jst1ofknd I’ve had to do this more than once before my ghetto van tanked permanently at 25 years and 3 months old. As others have said since they are disassembling the bulk of the engine, replacing anything that even remotely needs it (or in the case of belts and similar that need replaced on a regular basis anyway, even if they aren’t quite there yet) because then you should have no labor charge (or nearly no labor charge) since they have to pull that junk off anyway to get at what actually needs fixed. Presuming you can afford it now you will save money in the long run (or at least significantly postpone having to pay that expense in the future and depending on when you get rid of cars, may not have to do it again).
I just hit 200,000 on the car I bought used 3 years ago to replace the ghetto van so likely this is in my not so distant future due to the number of miles. /dreading it
Sorry you got hit with an expensive repair! Just keep reminding yourself that, in most cases (for years), it is cheaper per year to repair crap - even expensive crap - than make payments on a new car.
@mike808
I had a bad leak back in May (I was putting in about 4 quarts of oil in a week). Had some guy look at it and do what he could that thought the problem was the rear main seal. Called around then before settling on this mechanic.
Turned out that it wasn’t the rear main seal, but a different one that was just over $100 instead of the quoted $900. This leads me to trust this guy is going to do the best for me as he could have told me that it was the rear main seal and could have charged me whatever for it and I wouldn’t have questioned it.
@Kidsandliz
I’m taking that point of view to. It’s easier because I don’t want a new car… At least unless it’s electric. I really want to buy a brand new electric car…
I do want to add that if the meh people expanded from shopping web sites to starting a towing company then the guy that towed my car would have fit right in.
I was at work when this all happened. I had called my insurance company to set up towing. The tow truck driver called me to see where I was (he was at the wrong building). I went outside to look for him while still on the phone with him and there was no sign whatsoever of a tow truck.
He said that he could see me and I still couldn’t see a tow truck. The only thing out of the ordinary I saw was a banged up pickup truck with a flat bed trailer.
Anyway I was outside and the tow guy said he saw me. Then that beat up truck drives up to me and the guy says hi to me by name. If I hadn’t heard him on the phone at the same time, I may not have believed that he was the tow service my insurance sent out.
@jst1ofknd My hubbie with his beat up Ford pick up and car hauler is the tow company for our family & friends. I’m glad it worked out!

@Kidsandliz woot! Love internet arrival day! Congrats
Moviepass just invited me to a free screening in Irvine, CA. Assholes. They know perfectly well where I live.
@sammydog01 I’m still salty because I wanted to see an anime movie that came to select theaters and all the theaters within a 1.5 hour drive that normally do carry those movies didn’t do this one.
We apparently have a “Princess Goat” who thinks herself above the commoners and seldom participates in her GOAT blame thread. She’s hell on wheels for campaigning though…toothbrush anyone?
I believe we need to institute an electoral college to protect us from mob rule/AKA popular votes for future GOAT elections.
@therealjrn I put up a candidate with a meh addiction and plenty of content. That’s what ya all get.
@mfladd
Who was that?
/giphy asking innocently
Blame: I am having to insurance shop again after the first place I looked into and talked to jacked up the price after they got my daughter’s medical history. Sucks that not only are we being punished for something beyond our control and that hasn’t been an issue since 2013 but that it will likely cause her problems her entire life as the agent told me that if she were applying for individual coverage, they would have denied her. Grrr…
And I cried on the phone so double blame.
@tnhillbillygal That doesn’t make sense - they aren’t allowed to consider pre-existing conditions (unless you are looking at the 11 mo policies that are exempt from that) for health insurance coverage or not. All the ACA policies are based on age and older folks are only allowed to be charged 3x I think it is 3x and not 5x) what the younger people are charged. Now life insurance, disability insurance… those they can (and usually do) consider those things.
@Kidsandliz The lady told me that while they couldn’t deny coverage, they could charge the highest rate. I am looking at the healthcare exchange now but am wondering if those prices are going to skyrocket too when they see her history.
@tnhillbillygal By law they can not charge someone with pre-existing conditions a higher rate nor can they ask about medical history. They CAN (and do) charge those who are older a higher rate than those who are younger. When I got individual BC/BS (off the exchange) I was not asked about pre-existing conditions either. I would have been screwed had I been - 3 major cancers in 7 years, one with no cure, a hereditary demyelinating peripheral neuropathy… I’d be uninsurable under the old laws. As it is I can’t get life insurance, disability insurance, nursing home insurance as those are not governed by the same set of rules.
@Kidsandliz I think we are going to have to go with a plan from the exchange. My daughter’s history is with leukemia and I never dreamt that it would be her history that would drive our fees up when shopping for insurance. She’s been blessed to be cancer free for 5 years so it’s not an issue anymore but she’ll be dealing with the repercussions forever I guess.
@tnhillbillygal SO glad she survived that!! What she will need to do when she is a working adult is if she has a job that provides these things to everyone and they are automatically included is to buy the max she can afford and then make paying those premiums a priority the rest of her life. When you leave a job you often can convert those policies to an individual one without any restrictions - I have short term disability that way but haven’t been a place where I could even get long term. So far with life insurance I could get, but couldn’t increase, the amount beyond the minimum the employer offered everyone due to the underwriting issues. On the other hand since it is widely recognized that kids with leukemia, if they are cured, are cured for good - especially if it is 20 or 30 years later, it may not affect her for this kind of stuff in the future.
Unblame! Unblame! I just won 17.6 lbs of legos for $19 plus shipping!
@mfladd What are you going to do with 27.6 pounds of legos? Build a lego house to live in?
@Kidsandliz Ha…you never know. I might need it sometime. But, I just want to see my son’s face on Xmas. I just got done washing the first batch, which had some great specialty parts in it.
@Kidsandliz @mfladd How old is your son?
How do you plan to wrap it?
@mfladd Well buy a big, clear rubbermaid container (not a different brand, these crack less easily than the other major brand out there and the lid stays on better) toss them all in.
@Kidsandliz @mfladd My nephew gave me a gallon ziploc bag full of minifigs to sell on ebay a couple years ago. They are all mixed up and I keep forgetting about them to sort out and sell. Maybe I should get to that soon. It’s gonna be a pain though!
@Kidsandliz @tnhillbillygal They just sold some lots of minifigs today that went for a good deal of money. People love the minifigs.
@compunaut @Kidsandliz He is 8. I figured I would put them in a big plastic bin like @Kidsandliz said. I will probably give them in two batches. Let him get excited about the first one, and then escalate his excitement with the second.
Or, I could always just build the xmas tree out of them
@compunaut @Kidsandliz @mfladd
Scatter them all over his floor the night of Christmas Eve. That’s where they will end up anyway.
@compunaut @jst1ofknd @Kidsandliz Don’t think I haven’t thought about who will probably be cleaning them up
@jst1ofknd @Kidsandliz @mfladd You can always threaten to use the vacuum
Blame: This thread is no longer pinned to the top as a broadcast so I had to search to find it.
@jst1ofknd Actually the blame thread is almost never pinned to the top…
@Kidsandliz

Blaming @reclaimercube because catshirtswoot put up a coupon AFTER I bought a non-catshirt last night.
@narfcake Me too- several.
Blame: weather is doing what weather does and I had to turn on the heater for the first time today. I fought it for a while but when my kid walked in the room with 6 pairs of socks on her feet, I relented.

Blame: Sunday is almost over.

I BLAME @mikibell that even if I am not buying anything, I still CAN’T stay off the Goodwill Auction site. Too many interesting things!!!
Blame!
The worst know is the Going, Going, Gone page - where you can see all the things with the shortest amount of auction time left. Which causes impulsive thinking. I have withstood the pull so far, but it has been difficult at times!
@mfladd No No No! Right now I’m buying junk on the Woot football thing just because I can.
@sammydog01 I just spent 45 minutes looking at clocks. I was somehow entertained
@mfladd I just bought toothpaste. Two tubes!
@mfladd @sammydog01 I ended up buying 5 things and spent about $20 so not too bad.
@mfladd HEY… I did my turn as goat… go blame the goat…
hehehe addicting isn’t it? And even better, it is for a charity!!! (pushing that button to make you spend more, I know )
@mfladd @sammydog01 @tnhillbillygal shhh no more woot stuff!! what is this football thing??? – no don’t tell me, I am almost done with the kids’ Christmas presents!!!
@mikibell They might be doing it again for next week’s Thursday game!
/image tempting
@mfladd @mikibell @tnhillbillygal Unless they are big fans of toothpaste you didn’t miss much- cheap stuff but not exciting. Except crap. They had BOCs. The chat was the fun part.
@mfladd @mikibell @sammydog01 I prefer when they have a bunch of super cheap crappy stuff than the more expensive good stuffs. I can impulsively spend $5. I have to think about $10 and up.
@mfladd @mikibell @tnhillbillygal Me too! I did get a pair of some sort of fire extinguishers for ten bucks though.
The dogs I’m taking care of for the weekend are all insane. The golden retriever’s new toy is a roll of toilet paper he stole from the basement.
The cats are also insane, but I’m used to that.
Blame: The weather turned cold and the invasion of the mice hit. The cat managed to trap one in a bait feeder last night around midnight and it woke everyone up. That little mouse could really scream. At least the cat proved it has some skills.
@tnhillbillygal Better than this cat.
@narfcake linky broken?

It used to be super scary anyway. Then people started bringing little kids. So they sold special “no boo” necklaces to tell the actors to not scare you. So now it’s full of little kids, toddlers, and strollers- OMG the strollers. And there are so many little kids and no boo necklaces that they can’t scare anyone. Some lady yelled at an actor for scaring her 10 year old who wasn’t even wearing the stupid necklace.
Thanks, people, for bringing kids to inappropriate events. Your kids are, after, all, the center of the universe. You screwed it up for the rest of us. Hope you’re happy.
@sammydog01 That sucks! Boooooo!
@sammydog01 that’s why you bring your own Boo-s!
Blame: Had to send some paperwork in to a bank and realized after I had taped it secure and added my postage that I left something out. I have to send a follow up envelope to finish the stuffs. I’m sure it is @reclaimercube’s fault
@tnhillbillygal this is what happens when I’m in your head
