A farmer who was half-kidding when she suggested hiring out her goats out for Zoom meetings during lockdown has said making £50,000 shows it was no joke.
Dot McCarthy, from Rossendale in Lancashire [UK], said the number of people paying for “show goat” Lola and others to butt in on calls had been “insane”. More
That’s a better idea than hiring Jeffery Toobin to make an appearance.

“That’s a better idea than hiring Jeffery Toobin to make an appearance.”
…with or without the Lil Jeffy puppet he had in his lap last time?
…because I hear that, small as it was, it’s actually uglier than HE is, especially when he makes it throw up…
I’ve no doubt a goat offers more insightful ideas than most of the human participants I’ve seen on Zoom.

I’m bringing a goat to our next IOTW Zoom. 😛
My wife and her 6 siblings have a Zoom meeting every week. I’d love to hire one of the goats, but the time difference would make it impossible (the UK is 6 hours ahead). I admire the kind of quirkiness of this young lady.
That’s not baa-aa-aa-d
Ya know…. there are virtual backgrounds that you can put on yer zoom call.
The Bridge of the star ship Enterprize for instance, or New York City skyline, or
maybe that picture of the goat farm could be a good one for starters…
…I think we have plenty of OLD goats here, is that ok?
– they can even be videos (MP4s) or .gifs for that matter.
Check out the rules:

I know… it’s not a goat.
A friend of mine and I, from a website called Conservatives4Palin used to post a talking goat youtube clip as a never fail laugher when the joke between us was just too funny to repeat. I miss her but you know how these anonymous chatters can be, they are difficult to keep hold of in the real world.
It is great that she is making money doing this.
It is sad that this is a successful business venture.

Cool, I’ll bring the grass…for the goat’s munchies…
“A farmer who was half-kidding…”
