Does Meh have a real actual literal button or Chrome extension or something? I don’t see one on the home page or in the FAQ. Maybe I’m dumb at pattern recognition, reading comprehension or something. DAMIFINO. Dev(s)? Anyone?
@shawn That’s a cool hack: an actual physical hack instead of a virtual one. But I believe Amazon stopped the whole Dash button selling thing recently. You can’t get them anymore. They moved on to Echo/Alexa. Maybe I can find one on eBay at a reasonable cost. If not, it’s not worth it, especially with all the effort on top of it. People at Meh should just make a Chrome/other browsers extension button.
@Artista@shawn So let me get this straight–you want a browser extension so you click the meh button instead of clicking the meh button on the front page?
@Artista@shawn Alexa skill probably wouldn’t work for clicking the button, as it would require your username and plain text (or poorly encrypted) password to be stored in a database. Well, it would work, but it would be a bad idea.
Ok, folks, I see it, clicked it and… a little icon of the item comes up. It does absolutely nothing else. Anyone care to explain? Discuss amongst yourselves. I’m done, don’t care.
@Artista Are you sure it did nothing? How did clicking it make you feel? Satisfaction? Delight? Nothingness? Regret? The secret to the meh button is how it clicks inside you.
@Artista it doesn’t do exactly absolutely nothing else. It puts a bean in a box for mediocrebot to count and say how many people clicked meh. And it makes a mark on a secret calendar which will reveal itself if you get seven of these marks in a row.
But yeah, other than that, you pretty much got the full experience.
I do like your idea of a meh button chrome extension. Just so you could meh things everywhere out on the intertubes. If only all the pages got a little box for their beans and counted them out on their site.
I hacked one together years ago https://meh.com/forum/topics/i-hacked-the-amazon-dash-button-to-click-meh-at-meh-com-instead-of-ordering-tide

@shawn …or an Alexa skill

@shawn …IFTTT
@shawn @therealjrn Where is the button? I don’t see it. Maybe my ad blocker is the cause. I’ll turn it off and see if that does the trick
@Artista There is a third-party meh Alexa skill already.
Something tells me your not big on research…
@Artista @shawn And turn down your radio.
@therealjrn With over 25k skills
(last I checked) who the heck has the time! And why oh why isn’t in the FAQ?
@Artista It’s a third party skill not endorsed or sanctioned by the Mediocre Corporation. Have you turned down your radio yet?
@Artista @therealjrn
Click this on the front page:
@Artista @Thumperchick HOLY HECK!!! WHEN DID THEY PUT THAT THERE!!!

@Artista pre-made applet, or made your own?
@Artista @shawn How much are they going for? I have a drawer full. AM I RICH?
If you have one of those Staples “That was easy” buttons, you can 3D print your own meh insert.

@Artista In other words, the button did its job.

@Artista @medz In Russia, meh button clicks you!
@2many2no @Artista @medz wait, they click your button in Russia? Calling my travel agent…
@Artista @medz @tinamarie1974 Don’t fall for it… It’s just the new phishing.
@2many2no @Artista @medz @tinamarie1974 Umm googling image “click your button” it came up with what “your button” meh wants you to click
