@Barney Some people think it’s weird being obsessed with a seemingly random concept. I disagree. That’s all I had to say. Off to check on my refrigerated batteries!
@yakkoTDI-Not quite, I’m 63¹/²"!! Dam It!! My toes would get cold, or my ears would freeze & start looking like Obama’s!! I guess I could chop something off!!
@RiotDemon- you would think that I know, but I think you know that I know, and I know you know that I know!! You know??¿ “Can you dig it¿…… I knew that you would!” a quote by Billy Crystal many, many moons ago. Think '70s
@AttyVette-i don’t think they’re even blankets, they are Warmers which are just mini-blankets, but not full on blankets. That’s like saying that 11 year old boy is a man; maybe he’s a mini-man, or mini-me; he’s closer to being a little girl, than a full on Man!¡ LOL!
These are great for warming back up after rummaging around in the fridge looking for the right (but very fresh) battery. Finally, something useful for sale at Meh!
Blankets are useless. Now if Meh was selling towels, I would definitely have to get them. After all, they a towel is the most important thing to have when traveling the galaxy.
@DaveInSoCal-either way, you still need some staples. There’s nothing worse than a stapler without staples. That’s like having condoms without a,…okay, maybe that’s not the best analogy¡¡ Then again, maybe there are a Lot of things worse, but not when you’re holding the stapler, or your mini d%#k¡¡
This is a build-your-own 2-pack. Meaning you pick 1 blanket color, then add another and pick another color. This gives you your 2 blankets, for a total of $20 (plus shipping and tax where applicable.)
@Kidsandliz Er. Um. But… I would have had to have ordered the bot ordering robot in the first place, and I was kinda tired then, and I meant to get to it later and all, and um. Yeah. Meh.
@alose- yea, I have two of those Tees with the Meh logo on the front. They look just like new,… because I haven’t worn either. They are nice, I must admit & they’re for Sell, I must admit!! If meh dies they’ll really be worth more than I paid!! Da!!
One, if you want a shrugging kanmoji, you have to escape the backslash, like this:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Two, “$40 list”? This is a meh blanket. This is the list price. Where can I find one for $40? NOWHERE. You might as well say, “$120 retail price” or some other infomercial mainstay.
Well, somehow Meh accidentally created two orders, and I’ll keep the one with the best picture:
/image gainful-protective-hound
/image dependent-popular-start
Aaaand they both suck.
Which colour sold out first? According to the comments we get on the forum, it should be purple if people actually put their money where their mouth is.
When unprinted versions were 2 for $14, I got some and love them so much that I’ve been watching for them. But adding “meh” and $6 makes them not so great. I mean, do I really want to see “meh” on my lap? My self-esteem is low enough already. Meh.
@Thumperchick they just need to add two color options for each item. They’ve done it before with size and color. Just and two color options! That way, add one 2-pack to cart for $20 and pick each color.
@medz There is some really logical, well thought out reason for the way these are being done. It involves inventory and several systems workin symbiotically to achieve the most desired result.
I don’t understand that reason enough to explain it, but it exists.
person 1: “does the interface have a way they can build their own two pack”
person 2: exhales while briefly contemplating writing and testing new code “uhhhm… oh wait! we can just force a minimum quantity of two and let them figure it out”
@richferg It’s a coupon from the Casemates kickstarter. You need to spend all your free time at the forums to hear about stuff like that. It’s probably not worth it.
@SluggerOtoole These look like the ones I got a few months back, and they are like a sweatshirt material, but double layered (so the ‘outside’ of the sweatshirt is both sides of the blanket). I like them a lot actually. Mine don’t say Meh on them though.
For a while I’ve been considering making a Mediocre t-shirt quilt and this could be a great backing if it doesn’t shrink. What are the care instructions on it? The other thing holding me back is it would be a very expensive blanket with 20 squares from T-shirts and pillows.
So, Dammit, I waited too long, and NO MORE PURPLE!!! Forgot to check this Morning, so I had to buy a Damned A&M Aggie Maroon, Blech, No UT Orange, although I probably wouldn’t have bought it…lol
@Mandamm had hoped for burnt orange* though wasn’t expecting it… and while I like the color maroon I can’t buy anything in it lest someone think I’m for those Aggies, lol…
Black is also gone now - not a fan of green - and red is just so BRIGHT… ah, well, maybe next time.
(*unless you mean the Vols but since you were bitching about A&M gonna guess you mean Texas
I heard from a boy who had a closet full of Meh tees. What for, I don’t know, can’t imagine, nor do I care!! I’m sure He might buy some of your new stock of Tees because he has more than one closet!! He’s saving them for his children’s College Fund. I would contribute 3 big ones, but he probably doesn’t have change for a five cent piece. I just wanted to let him know how much I cared about his cause!!
Got mine, washed them, now the purple one is covered in maroon lint and vice-versa. And there was “meh-shaped” green lint stuck to the underside of one where I’m guessing they stacked the blankets up while the logos were still sticky?
These blankets are fantastic! I expected to receive the fleece blanket that they hand out on airplanes. Sweatshirt style fabric and stitching. These things are great. Well done, meh.
Also, anyone have the low down on the cleaning instructions? I don’t want to ruin them on the first go-round.
Every throw blanket ever made is too short unless you are under five feet. That is of course if you are three dimensional and wish to tuck it under your feet.
I am also not so enamored with the word “Meh” to pay $10 a throw when I had my fill of $3 throws, which looked nicer, last Christmas.
@Felton10-so, now there are different grades of crap. It would then stand to reason that the lower grade of crap, aks fresh fertilizer, would stink more, and the higher grade, like shit on shingles, would be almost edible,…Almost¡¡
I love purple.
@Barney I came here just to see if you commented on the purple.
@carl669
As if @Barney would pass on the chance.
@Barney Some people think it’s weird being obsessed with a seemingly random concept. I disagree. That’s all I had to say. Off to check on my refrigerated batteries!

@yakkoTDI heard they are a piece of sheet.
@yakkoTDI-Not quite, I’m 63¹/²"!! Dam It!! My toes would get cold, or my ears would freeze & start looking like Obama’s!! I guess I could chop something off!!
@decoratedwarvet 63.5" isn’t that tall.
@decoratedwarvet @RiotDemon It is if you’re 62" tall.
@rpstrong you got me there!
@RiotDemon- you would think that I know, but I think you know that I know, and I know you know that I know!! You know??¿ “Can you dig it¿…… I knew that you would!” a quote by Billy Crystal many, many moons ago. Think '70s
@decoratedwarvet what?
I’ll make a blanket statement…meh
@AttyVette-i don’t think they’re even blankets, they are Warmers which are just mini-blankets, but not full on blankets. That’s like saying that 11 year old boy is a man; maybe he’s a mini-man, or mini-me; he’s closer to being a little girl, than a full on Man!¡ LOL!
These are great for warming back up after rummaging around in the fridge looking for the right (but very fresh) battery. Finally, something useful for sale at Meh!
The missing arm in the model number was a nice touch.
Sorry, I only buy blankets that have sleeves.
@InFrom you could buy a 2 pack, staple them together, but leave holes for head, arms, and legs.
$25 for blankets which I’d never use? I have to think about it.
Blankets are useless. Now if Meh was selling towels, I would definitely have to get them. After all, they a towel is the most important thing to have when traveling the galaxy.
@jst1ofknd Don’t panic.
@jst1ofknd These are really large, blanket-like towels.
Approximately the right size to cover a Spaceman in a Tesla.
@2many2no @jst1ofknd Or more precisely, a Starman.
Too small
@DaveInSoCal Yeah that must be a short person holding that blanket up
@DaveInSoCal Do you not own a stapler?
@DaveInSoCal TWSS
@awk I do, but for $20 the set should include a stapler.
@DaveInSoCal-that’s what she said¡¡
@DaveInSoCal-that’s what she said¡¡
@DaveInSoCal-either way, you still need some staples. There’s nothing worse than a stapler without staples. That’s like having condoms without a,…okay, maybe that’s not the best analogy¡¡ Then again, maybe there are a Lot of things worse, but not when you’re holding the stapler, or your mini d%#k¡¡
At least there’s a purple option.
Meh, you realize you should be giving this $hit away, not charging for it, right?
@Stallion Await the next Fuku…
@Stallion The write-up is generally about your exact point.
This is a build-your-own 2-pack. Meaning you pick 1 blanket color, then add another and pick another color. This gives you your 2 blankets, for a total of $20 (plus shipping and tax where applicable.)
@Thumperchick That seems like a lot of work. I would have ordered and all, but, you know… the extra work…
@shahnm If we made them standard 2-packs, you’d only have the option of ordering a single color. (People would be annoyed at that.)
This way, you can pick 2 different colors. (People are annoyed at this.)
We really just like to change up which customers we irritate.
@Thumperchick
Don’t worry, some of us can get irritated at anything.
Find a product, and I’ll find a way to let it irritate me.
@Thumperchick Being irritated seems like a lot of work. I’m content to just be meh.
@shahnm so don’t hoard as many batteries and use some to fire up your bot ordering robot. Then it is no work. You are welcome.
@Kidsandliz Er. Um. But… I would have had to have ordered the bot ordering robot in the first place, and I was kinda tired then, and I meant to get to it later and all, and um. Yeah. Meh.
@Thumperchick You should create themed packs, like
Model: MSB¯_(ツ)_/¯3000
/reddit limb retrieval bot
@username
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think these are the same as what were sold last year without a logo. Pretty nice lap blanket.
@alose
Those were $7 each.
@alose @PlacidPenguin you should know that the Meh. is worth 5 bucks a month, so it’s a steal.
@alose- yea, I have two of those Tees with the Meh logo on the front. They look just like new,… because I haven’t worn either. They are nice, I must admit & they’re for Sell, I must admit!! If meh dies they’ll really be worth more than I paid!! Da!!
@decoratedwarvet I have a shelf of Meh shirts- I wouldn’t plan on using the profits from your two for your kid’s college fund.
@alacrity god I love Jonathan Banks
@alacrity- Who’s He?¿
@decoratedwarvet just another guy who doesn’t like branded blankets.
Why the “wash before first use” advisory? Do they have itching powder, fleas, or bedbugs? Hopefully not smallpox!
@robson Asian bird flu
@robson It’s to set the color by staining the rest of the load that same color.
You almost found a Meh branded item I refused to purchase. Then I remembered my coupon.
/giphy bleary-toothless-clover
@sammydog01 I too was seduced by the coupon!
/giphy wounded-bare-gin
@sammydog01 What the heck? I’ve got the VMP yet I’m missing out on the coupons. Maybe I should read my email.
@mistamoose The coupons were for VMP’s who backed casemate kickstarter.
@sammydog01 coupons spent on wine
@jml326 Wine? Yuck. And yet I’m a kickstarter on a wine site.
/giphy tastes bad
Fuck. Slap a logo on it, and I’ll buy any old shit.
/giphy ticklish-unkind-window
Worth it for the gif.
@daleyshow That makes about 566 of us (so far).
I just come here for the comments.
/giphy typical-fat-crawdad
Would buy if these kept me cool. It’s still too damn hot in South Florida.
@JT954 What is this “too hot” you speak of? Asks the girl in Michigan, who has forgotten what sunshine looks like.
@JT954 Put them in the refrigerator next to your batteries first.
@craigthom @JT954 I approve of this comment.
“$40 list”. Hahahahaha! $40 DREAMS. Good try!
One, if you want a shrugging kanmoji, you have to escape the backslash, like this:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Two, “$40 list”? This is a meh blanket. This is the list price. Where can I find one for $40? NOWHERE. You might as well say, “$120 retail price” or some other infomercial mainstay.
Unimpressive, most unimpressive.
@stinks $1,000,000 MSRP if you ask me
@woodhouse That’s a bargain!
100% cotton? No thank you.
@Jonas4321 Ugh, thanks for pointing that out! I thought they were fleece!
@Jonas4321 yes cotton keep those microfibers out of the water
@amillar7 Cotton fleece was around before that newfangled stuff. It’s what sweatshirts are made of. The cotton ones anyway.
Real fleece is from sheep and goats, but nobody has any of that.
Mostly it’s plastic, but it can be made cotton or whatever.
Well, somehow Meh accidentally created two orders, and I’ll keep the one with the best picture:
/image gainful-protective-hound
/image dependent-popular-start
Aaaand they both suck.
@awk I don’t know what you’re talking about, just look at that awesome diagram!
Meh, only 300 blankets before the deal’s paused.
Which colour sold out first? According to the comments we get on the forum, it should be purple if people actually put their money where their mouth is.
@bbf After resuming, here’s where we’re at:
25% black
24% purple
19% maroon
18% green
14% red
So not quite leading with purple, but still, I bet we’re the only site on the internet where purple vastly outsells red.
@dave Technically these sites will always have purple vastly outselling red. Especially when red isn’t an option.
http://www.purpleologist.com/
https://www.thepurplestore.com/
60" (5ft) isn’t long enough, needs to be at least 72" (6ft). I briefly considered getting some until I saw that - I like the colors.
When unprinted versions were 2 for $14, I got some and love them so much that I’ve been watching for them. But adding “meh” and $6 makes them not so great. I mean, do I really want to see “meh” on my lap? My self-esteem is low enough already. Meh.
@thelinster Put it on your lap upside down.
@sammydog01 But then the soft side won’t leave little balls of fleece all over my clothes.
@sammydog01 @thelinster
ɥǝɯ
@ACraigL @sammydog01 @thelinster
@thelinster-or my chest¡¡
@medz I think you need to select 2 by clicking want another
@medz
You have to add 2 to cart.
@medz The button says 2 or $20. You pick your colors and build your 2-pack.
I’m sort of bummed the FAIL isn’t in gif form.
@Thumperchick they just need to add two color options for each item. They’ve done it before with size and color. Just and two color options! That way, add one 2-pack to cart for $20 and pick each color.
Man, I was hoping I could use @medz coupon code…
@medz There is some really logical, well thought out reason for the way these are being done. It involves inventory and several systems workin symbiotically to achieve the most desired result.
I don’t understand that reason enough to explain it, but it exists.
@Thumperchick
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.
There is no room for logic at Mediocre.
@Thumperchick I imagined it was something like
person 1: “does the interface have a way they can build their own two pack”
person 2: exhales while briefly contemplating writing and testing new code “uhhhm… oh wait! we can just force a minimum quantity of two and let them figure it out”
person 1: “nice easy solution. you’re hired!”
person 2: “but I already work here”
@medz OK, so what’s that “mvpbribe” discount? How do I get the discount?
@richferg you have to bribe a warehouse worker
@richferg It’s a coupon from the Casemates kickstarter. You need to spend all your free time at the forums to hear about stuff like that. It’s probably not worth it.
@richferg @sammydog01 I just now noticed the whisper feature. How long has that been there?
@Stumpy91
On Meh?
Since yesterday.
Are they soft like a cheap blanket or more like a cotton tshirt?
@SluggerOtoole These look like the ones I got a few months back, and they are like a sweatshirt material, but double layered (so the ‘outside’ of the sweatshirt is both sides of the blanket). I like them a lot actually. Mine don’t say Meh on them though.
These would make great ass-napkins…
@Bumplepimp Your plumbing would appreciate using toilet paper.
For a while I’ve been considering making a Mediocre t-shirt quilt and this could be a great backing if it doesn’t shrink. What are the care instructions on it? The other thing holding me back is it would be a very expensive blanket with 20 squares from T-shirts and pillows.
@callow The shrinking part is easy to solve - prewash it on hot and over dry on cotton…
You dropped this - \
remember to use 2 since \ is the esca… wait…
Perfect size for the kids who feel meh when I wake them up for school. It will go great with their pillows.

Meh, why do you tempt me! I do want one, but only one.
@ConAndLibrarian
Wanna split them with me paying for 23% of the total cost?
@ConAndLibrarian But then they’re only 50% cotton. Not sure about what makes up the remaining 50%. Is it worth the risk?
Too many choices! Purple, green or maroon? I DON’T KNOW.
@mossygreen Red. Duh.
I guess I don’t get it
It’s a shame. I already used my VMP this month. Who would have guessed Meh would have two things I wanted in the same month?
@hchavers
There may be more items later this month which interest you.
Are these 0% asbestos? I won’t buy unless I’m sure.
Coupon? Coupon? WTF, Meh? You give coupons to the cool kids, I guess. <pathetic whimper>
@gertiestn There were coupons as part of the rewards for some folks at certain levels of the casemates kickstarter.
@gertiestn They don’t “give” coupons. You had to buy it.
