@yakkoTDI Merry Christmas to Meh and their overpriced Merch. I remember when the shirts were $5. Plus still have not seen one I like more than the black on black. Subtle meh.
@ponagathos@yakkoTDI
I remember when gasoline was < $1 a gallon and more recently a hamburger was under $2.
Things change. Most items have gone up, some considerably, and some especially lately.
Prices also continue to reflect both supply and demand.
@phendrick@yakkoTDI Well, I guess I do not understand the demand. It is the same shirt they have been selling for years with occasional changes in color.
Maybe I am spoiled by that company they sold before forming Meh. They occasionally sell six dollar shirts and you get to pick from many different designs. This is just…meh.
Sure why the hell not…here’s some more of my $ for shirts I definitely do not need more of! Too bad orange is only available in tiny Irk stuffie size!
/giphy tinseled-plenteous-luge
I may be in the minority here; I’ve never ordered the shirts with just the meh logo. I might be tempted to burn a screen and print an unofficial one for myself in a different font (on the blank of my choice), in which case I’d try for what Jeph Jacques used for Marten’s long-suffering “teh” shirt.
@werehatrack Kinda depends on how far back you go. In the very first one it is slightly different than the later years, and the current iteration is yet another variation on the theme. His art has certainly improved over the years, for sure. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1
And, now that I go to look for the most recent example I can find, it appears he’s replaced it with just an “EH” shirt (or the “T” fell off).
@werehatrack Agreed… but do they normally do any warehousing work on the day of the sale? I’d always assumed they didn’t start any of that stuff until the next [business] day.
I’m sure there’s stuff that has to be done, and someone has to be on the clock to some extent, but probably most of it can be pushed off a day? (An intentional slow day could still make for an easier holiday, though — they can all come back in on Boxing Day to pick up the slack from Christmas Eve, without having much extra burden from Christmas Day.)
I don’t really know what I’m talking about; I’m just speculating.
@Thumperchick IIRC, this scene was capped by one of my favorite lines from the Simpsons (and one I repeat often) :
“Aww, pet the cat? What’s the point?”
@simtel20 What I came in here to say. At this point in my life/career I have more t-shirts than I think I’ll need for the remainder of my life. But I love a 3/4 length sleeve.

Not sure that applies to meh merchandise.
Good deal. I need no more of these things unless I plan on building an Irk army. Also, Mehrry Christmas to all!
Happy holidays everyone!!
What happens if you remove one from the cart and check out with the ~$15 + shipping for one shirt?
@Granite_Grizz you will get the message “OOPS, SORRY. YOU MUST BUY AT LEAST 2 OF THESE”
Okay, I needed some understated shirts. Went with the cool blue and heavy metal. dashing-spirited-bough
exceedingly Meh
Why not. The “opps your shipment is late $5” makes this an ok deal.
I may have to go through my old unworn meh shirts to see I’d anyone wants them.
/giphy tranquil-shivering-eggnog
@jml326 Because when you have a bunch of unworn meh shirts, what’s the most meh thing to do but of course buy some more meh shirts!
@phonepole eh, the most meh thing to do was to gain 60 lbs and not fit in the old ones
/showme caroling-flashy-drummer
So great! Mehrry Christmas and Happy Mehlidays errybody!
/giphy fluffy-mirthful-outing
This is so much better than the last IRK I got I’m seriously offended.
Good price if you don’t have the Irk already or want a second. Looking at it as $10 per shirt and $10 for stuffie it’s good.
Don’t think I personally want a second identical plushie … But they are good quality and worth $10 if you wanted one.
Already got a few of each but I do like me MEH shirts
I would love to have more meh shirts but these are too expensive
ChrisMeh all day long!
Sure why the hell not…here’s some more of my $ for shirts I definitely do not need more of! Too bad orange is only available in tiny Irk stuffie size!

If you want me to advertise for someone, you have to pay me. Not the other way around.
I am once again asking you to bring back the poly-blend tees. I will buy them.
/giphy Merry Christmas!

I think these represent a way to create a low-workload day for the warehouse staff.
@werehatrack Agreed… but do they normally do any warehousing work on the day of the sale? I’d always assumed they didn’t start any of that stuff until the next [business] day.

@macromeh @Thumperchick
Cats? They PURRRR!!!
And they’re luxuriously softer than any dog.
Probably would bite if it included a bag, still disappointed of not getting a bag with my IRK : ( … do love Irk tho!
@shockvibe If your Irk did not contain a bag then contact customer support for assistance.
@shockvibe @yakkoTDI
They contacted all IRK buyers notifying us that bags did not get printed in time and gave us a $5 off code.
I wish they had the baseball style tees again.

Mostly sad the Meh button isn’t working on this one.
