@Felton10@macromeh Hah - that’s some dedicated interior design - matching your pet to your decor.
As crazy about him as you are, I would have guessed the reverse - you got the wall unit to match HIM!
I like your rug, too.
@Kyeh@macromeh He was here before the unit but only by about 5 years-the unit is almost 20 years old although it doesn’t look it. Got it from one of my clients. We have to get someone to fly down from DC to move it from our first house that house and someone drive up from Miami to move it from that house to our current house. Cost to move that and similarly made custom furniture was about 3k each time.
@Felton10@macromeh Yikes! Kind of a white elephant gift, in that it’s cost you so much to keep it - but obviously you love it, so that’s priceless, I assume. And I guess “white elephant” really isn’t very apt because it’s actually more normal elephant-colored!
@OnionSoup If tomorrow is toilet paper day then they must have finally recovered from the great toilet paper shortage we helped them with some years back.
@narfcake thanks! We’re pretty happy with him. Will probably keep him. Little Isaac is about thirty minutes shy of being three days old right now (6/13/2021 at 12:47 AM EST)

The last two days I missed a meh face were because of my last two kids being born. I know exactly how old the youngest is because of that.
@jmbunkin I store them in gallon plastic freezer bag\s when I get them. I have some similar that are over a year old that are still perfectly fine when I grab one.

From the comments the last time this was sold (on March 22nd) we have:
SLepe’s wife: “they’re fine, I guess, but don’t buy again.”
edyafree: “They’re ok. Nothing more.”
Jeepersca: “they’re smaller - feel a little dryer. So you go to wipe off the counter and it kind of slips out of your hand and makes you feel like you’re dusting, not BLEACHING…”
Cyberpunk2020: “actually very good for phone screens!”
jmbunkin: “Bought these in the past and they’re just OK but once opened I have a difficulty keeping the plastic hatch closed.”
Well, they certainly seem meh to me. I like my wipes to be able to do some serious wiping, and these sound small and possibly a bit dry.
But people do say they’re OK/“fine”, so if you have a lower standard for wipes then they seem like a great price. Past Meh price was $10 for 5, this is $15 for 24, so $0.0086 per wipe now, $0.028 per wipe before.
The problem I see is that if I leave these in the bathroom for cleaning, the pack looks just like the pack of moist butt-wipes. And I really don’t want to bleach that – though apparently that is a thing for some people.
And remember, where it says “do not flush”, They Are Not Kidding About This, they are not flushable. Thus when you employ one (or, worse, many) to de-ick something, you are stuck smelling the stench of both the bleach and the nasty perfume until it all volatizes fully, or you empty the trash into the skip outside.
@brasscupcakes Yeah I ordered before I noticed the complaints about size. I’ve seen this size commonly for baby wipes [NOTE: Please do not use bleach wipes on a baby!].
Though I can’t understand why anyone would make bleach cleaning wipes of that same small size. My theory is that in last year’s rush to make either alcohol or bleach sanitizing stuff, a baby wipe production line was re-purposed into making bleach wipes. But in the same small format since the line was set up that way. That’s also why the packet is confusingly just like baby butt-wipes. (adult butt-wipes generally are larger too). [And grandma says it’s OK; she know how important a clean butt is and there’s nothing wrong with talking about it. and knows not to use bleach on it. Unless she’s into that…]
@brasscupcakes Just noticed that the size was NOT in the 20-or-so lines of description at the top of the page. Intentional omission? Think I will contact svc to try to cxl.

I don’t want to say anything.
@Felton10 And yet you did!
@Felton10 Wait, is this Felton or Walter posting?
@macromeh Wasn’t me-sometimes Walter climbs down from the cage and uses my computer when I leave the room. Have posted this picture before.
@Felton10 @macromeh
Whoa, I only just noticed that his tail feathers are red! Pretty sassy-looking!
@Kyeh @macromeh After all the pics I posted of him you just noticed that?
@Felton10 @macromeh Somehow I overlooked that. He looks so dignified in his gray suit - but then this flash of red!
@Kyeh @macromeh If he didn’t match the wall unit in the great room to a tee, he might have been gone long time ago.

That’s the great thing about dogs and cats - eventually your decor comes to match them.
@Felton10 @macromeh
Hah! Too true.
Yeah, alright. I can use these.

@fuzzmanmatt same here. Too much to pass up.

@fuzzmanmatt @goldnectar is that giphy from red sonja?
First masks, then wipes, we all know that means tomorrow is toilet paper day.
@OnionSoup They seem to suggest first we are infectious and now we are dirty.
@OnionSoup That would be great. I could use some new ass wipes in my life since not everyone is back in the office causing distractions.
@OnionSoup If tomorrow is toilet paper day then they must have finally recovered from the great toilet paper shortage we helped them with some years back.

Surface wipes? So these are good at cleaning those small Micro$oft

Hmmm. Just had a baby. May need to disinfect some surfaces on occasion.

@narfcake @tsigley I read “He’s just shy of being 30 minutes old right now” and though you had clicked Meh on your newborn to come here.
@tsigley These wipes are terrible for disinfecting babies (even those surfaces). Please try a different product.
Congrats, BTW!
@shahnm definitely not planning on wiping the baby with them at all! It’s more of a wiping down hard surfaces where baby may be sitting/laying etc…
@tsigley I should have thrown in a winkie face emoji after my last comment. It was very much in jest…
@shahnm fair enough. Hard to tell joking in text comments coupled with little sleep on my part.
My dad jokes are on point though. Those poor nurses.

The last two days I missed a meh face were because of my last two kids being born. I know exactly how old the youngest is because of that.
For external use only (no matter what CNN reports Trump said)!
Wonder how long you can store these before they start to dry up ?
@jmbunkin that’s what I was wondering.
@jmbunkin I store them in gallon plastic freezer bag\s when I get them. I have some similar that are over a year old that are still perfectly fine when I grab one.
@jmbunkin Until a few weeks ago, I would assume.

Well then, a wipe a day will keep (at least) the dust away, in a cleaner sort of way, I say I hope I say.
Hmmm…
** I don’t see any ketchup here! **
/giphy unknowing-taunting-ketchup
But do I need 24 packs?
@AZnatural1 When has Meh ever been about need?
The problem I see is that if I leave these in the bathroom for cleaning, the pack looks just like the pack of moist butt-wipes. And I really don’t want to bleach that – though apparently that is a thing for some people.
anal bleaching is a thing?
Note: grandmas probably know all about this. been there, done that.
Note2: Please don’t try this at home, especially not with these wipes.
Now, had these been asswipes, I would have snagged a lifetime supply, instead? Meh.
And remember, where it says “do not flush”, They Are Not Kidding About This, they are not flushable. Thus when you employ one (or, worse, many) to de-ick something, you are stuck smelling the stench of both the bleach and the nasty perfume until it all volatizes fully, or you empty the trash into the skip outside.
I was going to bite but they only measure 5.5 X 7 inches … That’s makeup wipe size, not counter wipe.
