Quadtec Digital Multi-Band Watch Set
Our Take
- A very nerdy watch that lets you display the time in various ways
- Looks like a “watch from the future” in 1962
- “Polished finish” is the sixth spec, so there’s not a lot to say
- Model: QTSET-SS01
The Mehliad
Chapter 16
Continuing the tale of young Dan Fogelberg (no not that one), who fell asleep in a storm and woke in a fantastical, creepy land. Beyond that, your guess is as good as ours. (Catch up here.)
The denizens of Sa invited us to a feast and, needing their support to resupply our ship, we had no choice but to agree. In a stark, unfurnished basement with little more than an inflatable pool we were treated to pizza rolls and cheap beer.
“Some of my people have paid you great tribute,” the Grand Kyanak spat between bites of pizza roll. “They honor you with portraits.” Geoff, serving as our ambassador of sorts, gave appropriate deference and the artists were brought in one at a time to show us their work.
What followed was a horrific menagerie of images, each more grotesque than the last. They had manipulated portraits of us to depict us on animals, as terrorists, engaged in coitus with one another, eating human flesh, and with Hitler mustaches.
We did our best to seem appreciative, but I made sure to leave the feast as quickly as I could without causing a scene.
When I made it back to the ship, I saw the bow had been painted to depict me with a pineapple sticking out of my ass.
Meh-rathon
What’s a Meh-rathon?
Normally, Meh is all about one deal per day—simple. But sometimes, we throw that out the window. A Meh-rathon is an all-day gauntlet of nonstop deals. One after another, untill we run out of stuff (or patience). It's chaotic. It's fun. It's a terrible way to shop responsibly. You've been warned.
