goal posts

n. Brief un-needed over-hyped social media descriptions of a minor event or a string of minor events such as every basket and foul in an NBA game.

Every day there are crazy notes in my mailbox about the economy. I am going to put them all in my trash folder with the all the complaints about the FIFA peace prize and the ongoing wars.

Time to move the goal posts? Again?

moving the goalposts

The act of redefining the conditions for victory or completion of a task, either when the original conditions for achieving them were met or whilst the person or group is busy working to achieve the current conditions, in order to prevent them from succeeding. Usually done with malice by a superior or peer looking to exclude or remove people from a group by portraying them as incompetent of not completing the task they keep altering.

When Jake was close to finishing his training, his supervisor who had always hated him started moving the goalposts by claiming that Jake needed four references of work experience instead of two in order to graduate, a condition that nobody else had to meet and with only one day left for the deadline. Jake didn't pass.

Goalpost Shifter 

The worst type of Nintendo bootlicker who defends their multi-million dollar company when :
1. There's a criticism of Nintendo when they shut down fan stuff borrowing their IPs.
2. There's a criticism from fanboys of rival consoles.
3. They lose an argument, some of them start mocking their colloquist at this point.

Here we go there's a Goalpost Shifter under a Twitter post criticising Nintendo shutting down Youtubers who upload their OSTs.

moving the goalposts

A fancy way of saying sabotage of what somebody is trying to get done, fucking with someone's life.

The dork would always start moving the goalposts whenever she started to get eaten alive at the game she created.

goalposting

Goalposting is a sex position in which one person lays on his or her back with two other people straddling. Named because of the horizontal and two uprights.

Dude, my girlfriend and her friend were drinking together when I got home and I convinced them to do some goalposting with me.
