@Barney You’ve done your best to train him…he looks like he’s ready for the floor. @mediocrebot don’t forget about the 30 day evaluation you’ve got coming.
You know, I locked my keys in my car last week and had to wait outside for about an hour and a half before my mother came home. This was fine for four reasons: 1. the weather was beautiful, 2. there was a folding chair in front of the house, 3. I was well within the limits of the wifi, and 4. I had a full Contigo water bottle (bought here!). This meant that I could sit in a chair with my feet up, watching Adventure Time, sipping flavored water and greeting neighbors I didn’t recognize who were walking their dogs. It turned out to be the best use of my time for the week, excepting the cool stuff I bought at Goodwill the next day (an unrelated story).
Been using the bubbas from a couple of weeks ago for water. bonus feature: sealing the cap with a snap can occasionally spray out a fine cool mist to help you cool down as you drink the insulated water.
Hydration in public isn’t new, us old-timers used to avail ourselves of water fountains. I’m not saying water fountains of yore weren’t gross sometimes, or warm, or smelly, or perhaps even unsanitary…
@Bkmack The knives used to flow freely. The last couple knives I got from meh left a bad taste in my mouth compared to the nice Kershaw Speedsafe models they used to sell.
Does it deliver liquid without requiring the owner to position the bottle upside down? Does it have a straw or suction tube? As usual the description is perfect example of ambiguity. Not that meh would purposley misrepresent. It’s more a matter of bong residue interfering with examining the product. (Forget it, I have applied numerous times for copy writer job, but human resources has expressed concern over my credentials) I know that does not bode well for my employment arc, but I just need the right person at the right time. And finally in an effort to be thorough, is it blue tooth?
These water bottles are great. It’s hard to find spill proof water bottles that are also dishwasher safe. This has to be Contigo’s best model as the older one with the flip top I found was susceptible to mold growing under the washers in the lid. Unless you take it completely apart you’d never know. Their coffee mugs are also the best as well. I’ll never buy another brand mug or water bottle.
This write-up was one of the best I’ve read in ages…actually it’s the only one I’ve read all the way through in ages, which says something for how good it was. Nice one, Mr. Toon!
If you do nothing else today, you HAVE to go to the Amazon page linked on Meh.com, and scroll down to read the 5-star review by a reviewer named “Cameron”- it’s hilarious and priceless noir review.
If I buy any more Contigo’s or Bubba’s, I will either be committed or will have to open a STORE!!! I have a stack on a shelf, and give them away… Running out of friends to give them away to.
@Mandamm Open a store that mainly sells bottles and travel mugs? That’s crazy, but with the right name it might just work. I suggest “ehhhh” or “blah.”
I’ve received mine and they are very nice. But I have found out that any sunscreen left on your hands dull the finish very noticeably. The same thing with my meh purchase Contigo Autoseal Swish eater bottle. Bummer.

@conandlibrarian Sorry, this deal contains 2 unique items and I’m not sure which one you want. Try ordering from the checkout page.
@mediocrebot Aww. Was thinking that might work. Now I have to buy it like all the other people.
@mediocrebot I think you’ve got this gig all figured out now. It’s time for you to go solo. Good luck and don’t forget to write if you need help.
@Barney You’ve done your best to train him…he looks like he’s ready for the floor. @mediocrebot don’t forget about the 30 day evaluation you’ve got coming.
@conandlibrarian syntax is off. IIRC it’s:
@conandlibrarian smoking is bad for you mmmkay?
@jbartus thanks for the tip, I will try again, just for fun.
Two for Tuesday cups… again… 'cause that’s always fun and different.
I remember when this place sold too many speaker docks
Lame
Meh… Bubba wins, can have cold water all day
@mehod thanks for giving me a reason not to buy these guys!

Not another water bottle! They are over-hydrating the market with these…
@mjs597
Luckily in Arizona they make great gifts.
Giant-glass-scone
Exactly perfect.
Contigo cups are hard to beat, honestly.
My water already comes in plastic bottles.
@satih then youre getting your water from the wrong place -
I’m good with my two $2.00 Star Wars water bottles–but the Bubbas are what I really use. Thanks anyway meh. See you tomorrow!

Needless to say, vapid-bony-donkey
@mossygreen Irk would be proud of your community activism.
@sammydog01 But it was totally inadvertent community activism, and I mostly watched Adventure Time. So, maybe not?

2 for $10 contigo coffee mugs plz.

@lynnorajean holy crap! those were water fountains, intended for “drinking” water?
@Bkmack spit-take

What ever happened to knives?
@Dengue how’s your temperature?
@Bkmack The knives used to flow freely. The last couple knives I got from meh left a bad taste in my mouth compared to the nice Kershaw Speedsafe models they used to sell.

@Bkmack from the picture it appears the answers are: no, no, and …no.
I’m team Nalgene for life.
@vanslaterco Nalgene means buttcheeks in Spanish. I hope you’re proud.
@copperx I love putting lippies on Nalgenes
I have a couple of these and use them often. Good price for two.

@jpguido New! Now With Less Mold!
Bottles again is completely meh, but excellent, if not particularly adventurous, speculative essay dodges the button click.

@Trask I hope you’re joking. This isn’t the NY Times. This is no place for such a serious tone.
@Trask I thought it was an awesome world-changing write up.
I’ve been happy with my Contigo stuff from Meh. I’ll bite.
/giphy satirical-bald-baboon
What, no shark?
I don’t like the seriousness of the write up. I hope meh is not going in this direction.

@PhysAssist How do you match that ! Will there be a chapter two ?
@PhysAssist That was pretty good!
@jmbunkin I certainly couldn’t, and I’m watching for the next one.
@therealjrn I know, right!- glad you liked it

$5.00 shipping for a $10.00 deal? Pass.
@mxmora VMP is only $5 a month so deals like this will only be $10…( I hope @mediocrebot doesn’t feel like I am stepping on his anthropomorphic toes)
