Yes, that's the slogan for the Goatboy Notable election campaign.

Why vote for him?

1) He couldn't care less about the title of Notable along with all its inherent responsibilities, which in my book makes him notable for not wanting to be a Notable.

2) He writes good stuff and large quantities of it (check his stats).

3) Monkeys.

4) Vote and Goat rhyme.

5) It's about time we had a 'down to earth' Notable who plays the drums.

6) If he had a username in these forums, Wings Hauser would vote for him.

7) If Wings would vote for him it clearly makes sense.

8) erm...

9) see 8.

10) Goat also rhymes with Boat.

Hello? What's going on here? What's all this noise? We'll have no shouting here, this is a local forum for local people.

This is true. George Orwell writes in "Down & Out in Paris":
"Anyone that wants to be in power should be banned from doing so, as their motives are impure and ruled by a lust for glory and all that corrupts. The truest way to remain partisan is to target those that have no wish to, as they are guided by the ideal, as opposed to craving attention and personal vindication"


2) He writes good stuff and large quantities of it
> (check his stats)

Well, I post large quantities. Mostly just political rants and fights with Wookiee. Oh, and baiting Nintardo fans. And poncy quotes from books by George Orwell.

3) Monkeys.

Can't argue with the Simian Sensibilities.

4) Vote and Goat rhyme.

This is true. As do "Stoat" and "Scrote"

5) It's about

This sounds like me. "Down to earth"...I'm a Pikey? I need a dog on a bit of string then.

I wouldn't dare presume this, but I dream of such an honour.

7) If Wings would

His action-hero cultdom would indicate a certain intelligence. I'd follow Wings at his command on anything

8) erm...

9) see 8.

10) Goat also

Yes. Yes it does.

Got my vote ages ago when I was on a boat, not trying to gloat but it stayed afloat.

:) Hurrah for me.

Am I not a 'down to earth? Notable?? :D

Anyway, it's between Goatboy and YH for me. Hmmm...

And I've got more pressing matters to worry about at the moment, such as working out why my MSN and Hotmail account has disappeared for no apparent reason...

I agree. If there's something missing in the world it's monkey obsessed drumming notables.
