Have you set your totally arbitrary MyLot goal for February 2023?

I just remembered that there are only 28 days in February, and that it's already the 24th. Time to nix the complacency and set my totally arbitrary goal for this month. Let's see. I'm at ABCD.EFGH right now, and things have been a bit slow yesterday and today. I had better get find my book on "Clever Things to Write About" and get cracking. My post about being gassy was my biggest hit in recent days, but one can only carry scatology so far. I did take some photos of the snow on Mt. Diablo today, but I don't want to undermine my forthcoming snow post, so I'd better not even mention that. Aha! I just thought of something interesting I can post about. Maybe even two things. But I don't want to resort to cereal posting, as I haven't had cereal in a couple of days. I'll set STUV.WXYZ as my aggressive goal and leave it at that. Have you set your totally arbitrary MyLot goal for February 2023? And can you guess what my ear worm is right now?

Earworm = "Classical Gas"? Actually, I suspect it's "The Alphabet Song". I hit my goal a few days ago, so now I'm just mostly dancing on other people's posts.

You actually set a goal? I'm always happy with whatever amount I make playing on myLot.

@spiderdust Oh, I see... Yeah, that is always helpful. I usually pass that goal early in the month.

Whereas I am able to manage over $2 this month but that's fine as I started late this month. I already had over $3 in my account so I am able to reach payout this month.

Is your earworm the Sesame Street song where Big Bird sings the alphabet as if it's one word? My arbitrary goal is 1/2 times X to the first power quantity divided by 10 to the zeroeth power.

@TheHorse I would apologize profusely, but I'm not sorry. Being offended is a personal choice. There is nothing in the big, wide universe that is inherently offensive. Something only becomes offensive when people choose to be offended by it. For instance, take something as obviously offensive as the existence of Justin Beiber, Kid Rock pretending to be from the hood, tapioca pudding, or fish on pizza. Some people irrationally choose not to be offended by these things, while normal rational people agree that these things are indeed offensive. But it is a choice, not a law of nature.

I find that video offensive. I am going to my safe room. By saying that the word is "QR," the word "queer" is implied, and therefore OK. How dare those perverted Liberals try to teach children such a word! Next thing you know, they'll be allowing blacks, Mexicans, homosexuals, and EVEN INDIANS (like @Vandana7) to live in our Great Country!

I don't know that I can say it is ever a goal, but I do remember saying at the start of the month I wanted to beat last month's earnings, and so far this month I have done that with still 3 days to go. I think I will make it a goal to beat Fenruary's earnings in March.
