@gogrrl You have anything on donorchoose? There is a thread for that to pay for teacher wish lists (unofficial community project we used to do yearly pre-pandemic and we’ve started it up again). Well and one teacher from our community posted their amazon list as their stupid school district won’t let them use donorchoose.
@Kidsandliz thanks for letting me know about this. I’m starting year 28 and am set with what I need at this point in time. I’m sure there are newer teachers that would really benefit from this opportunity to get some needed items funded for their classrooms. Thanks to all involved in this project here. It really warms this teacher’s heart.
@gogrrl Pass the donorchoose site on to teachers at your school who might need help (well and I guess make sure the school district will allow it - I can’t believe some won’t. It’s no skin off of their teeth. Truly disgusting some won’t.) so they can jump through to the hoops on donorchoose. Not everyone’s requests there get funded though so they have to make some effort to advertise their page there. At least on there donors know everything has been vetted and the teacher doesn’t get money, just the stuff so the money gets spent on the stuff.
I’ll collect names on Sunday, but the IRKs probably won’t get put in until Monday. Regardless, you have as long as the event is active to get your names on the list. Thanks, guys!
@ExtraMedium Does that mean that the event is active through Sunday?
Edit: Okay, I just saw the count-down on the Irk page and it’s only through Saturday.
@Kyeh I’m pretty sure the event is over at midnight (Eastern) tonight…though I haven’t checked the schedule. Just go ahead and post yours today just in case.
@f00l One (1) IRK per person, per IRK related event (meh-rathon, IRK-athon, surprise IRK sale). Pretty strict on this. You will get one free each time you post a NEW tat photo during one of these events (as you’ve done today) and so you can buy one if you’d like, but you won’t get a discount on any purchased, even if you qualify for the discount.
@f00l Well, if you buy one, it still counts as you getting one, so we just don’t ship the “ink” freebie. You can still win them on your own and skip sharing that tat pic, or share the pic and get one on your own anyway just to show the love and say you did it.
@Kyeh Yeah I have that same trouble under my toe. My ankle doesn’t bend enough to make it easy. I suppose I could use tape with the date (although you got fancy with an irk shirt) and then not worry about trying to get the computer screen in there (and keep the cat away long enough to snap the photo)…
@Kyeh
SO DARN CUTE!
Love the placement, SEXY, that could’ve made for some pretty non G rated pics! Lol
I’ve wanted to draw my own unique tattoo for as long as I can remember but besides the fact that my mom would’ve killed me (she feels just like your mom about them) I could never decide where I wanted to put it. I just didn’t have any particular body part I felt worthy of drawing attention to. Ugh, the amount of wasted energy spent on ridiculous stuff!
@Lynnerizer Thanks! I wasn’t going to get any tattoos as far as I knew but that “last chance” thing was like an irresistible challenge. I’m actually quite happy about it! Especially because I thought Irk did come out pretty cute.
@sammydog01 yes, some very useful coupon codes and then @ChadP said there was something else but it would take time. So idk that part yet, but it might be my favorite tattoo yet.
@ChadP@sammydog01 yeah I’m not worried about it, I know you’re good for it, whatever it is? Lol.
Baby always comes first, one of my twins has been chronically since they were born so I absolutely know how exhausting that is. I hope they get better soon!
@swstealth If you’re on a computer, it’s the little icon I’ve circled in the image bellow. If you’re on mobile the icon is the same but can only be seen when your phone is in the “landscape” orientation. This is due to the lack of space in the normal “vertical” or “portrait” view most people use their phones in.
Looks like that’s everyone that’s going to get one this time around. Like I said earlier, I’ll get this sent out in the coming day, but thanks for showing up and showing off.
Can someone explain the reason for including the date in the photo of the tattoo?
(I have no interest in receiving an IRK, even less in getting a tattoo - just curious. )
Using my junk mail to get meh’s junk… err stuff
Thanks @thumperchick and @extramedium and @chadp whichever one of you got stuck with us Inksters
@mbersiam Maybe the best use of junk mail.
Woo hoo another mehrathon!
@cbilyak Wow, that’s commitment.
Back to school time already. Can’t wait to get my kids back to school!
Back to School? This teacher needs more time!
Cheer me up with a good IRK, please.

@Kidsandliz Will spread the word. We start school next Thursday. Thanks so much!
@f00l
@f00l
TPTB: send billions of IRKs pls.
Thank you!
Greetings irksum inksters! Today was my kids first day back so I had to wake up early which threw off my whole day
.
Thank yous!

My MacGyver’d Ink for IRKs
@heartny This must be early in a MacGyver episode where things are still going terribly wrong.
@heartny ah yes, but you don’t have the super secret badge by your name.
/giphy imposter
@mbersiam I’m hoping to get a super secret paperclip badge
@heartny @mbersiam You might have to make your own and paste it into each message you post.
/giphy super secret paperclip badge
@Kidsandliz Will do. If I remember.
I tried really hard to screen off the stuff no one wants to see and get the camera farther away so it focuses but my arms are too short.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yes, I did reuse this Post-it.
@extramedium @chadp
Stupid q
I presume I will get an IRK (or a billion IRKs), based on my tats as pictured above.
Given that, am I also eligible for a sidedeal IRK (if you don’t sell out)?
And am I also eligible for the sidedeal IRK discount, presuming I buy 30 bucks worth of sale event stuff today?
Much thx
@f00l One (1) IRK per person, per IRK related event (meh-rathon, IRK-athon, surprise IRK sale). Pretty strict on this.

@ExtraMedium
Fair enough I spoze.
This does have the effect of killing my inclination to buy stuff. I might kind of need maybe, tho.
@f00l Well, if you buy one, it still counts as you getting one, so we just don’t ship the “ink” freebie. You can still win them on your own and skip sharing that tat pic, or share the pic and get one on your own anyway just to show the love and say you did it.
Almost missed camping no signal
@gr8mick1 have fun camping!! Hope you are doing it in an area where it isn’t 100+ degrees.
@Kidsandliz ![weedville PA][1]
No it’s really a place.
[1]:
Yay! Made it in time for this one.
The couple that ink irks together, _______ _____together.
@Nakome Smirks together?
Thanks for the IRK!!
I really didn’t expect the spot I chose to be so tricky to photograph; I need to figure out a good way to do this.
@Kyeh Yeah I have that same trouble under my toe. My ankle doesn’t bend enough to make it easy. I suppose I could use tape with the date (although you got fancy with an irk shirt) and then not worry about trying to get the computer screen in there (and keep the cat away long enough to snap the photo)…
@Kyeh I was wondering if that would be a hard spot to selfie. It’s super cute, though!
@Kyeh @Pony
I would say, use a mirror, and then flop the image before you upload it
@Pony @f00l I did!
@Pony Thanks!
@Kidsandliz It’s actually an “M” shaped sticky note; I figured “M” for Meh. But it DOES look like a tee shirt!
@Kidsandliz @Kyeh @Pony I feel like putting Irk in a shirt is bonus points. Not that those are in any way redeemable…but nice!
@brainmist @Kidsandliz @Pony
Thanks!
@Kyeh Where is yours?
@Kidsandliz Answered in the “location” thread.
@Kyeh
Lol
(she feels just like your mom about them) I could never decide where I wanted to put it. I just didn’t have any particular body part I felt worthy of drawing attention to. Ugh, the amount of wasted energy spent on ridiculous stuff!

Especially because I thought Irk did come out pretty cute.
@Brainmist WHERE ARE YOU … ???
@Kyeh OMG ANOTHER ONE??? Thanks for the heads’ up!
@Kyeh Whew! In with 100 minutes to spare!
WOOHOO! There is no tired like first week of school teacher tired. Lol.
@raptorgorawr Did you ever get a prize for the TV one?
@sammydog01 yes, some very useful coupon codes and then @ChadP said there was something else but it would take time. So idk that part yet, but it might be my favorite tattoo yet.
@ChadP @raptorgorawr Exciting!
@ChadP @raptorgorawr @sammydog01 That’s so fabulous! I’m voyeuristically excited!
@raptorgorawr
Now I’m curious to see the TV that being spoken about, must be pretty amazing to win you a prize! 
Love your happy pie, so cute!!
@Lynnerizer the pie one is it, it’s from a baking show
@raptorgorawr @sammydog01 I’ve had a sick baby and haven’t been able to mail things yet. It’s still coming. I promise.
@ChadP @raptorgorawr @sammydog01 Ugh, hope baby gets better!
@ChadP @sammydog01 yeah I’m not worried about it, I know you’re good for it, whatever it is? Lol.
Baby always comes first, one of my twins has been chronically since they were born so I absolutely know how exhausting that is. I hope they get better soon!
@ChadP @raptorgorawr I’m sorry about the baby. And congrats on the baby? Did you even tell us you had a baby?
@raptorgorawr @sammydog01 He’s almost 2. lol. So. Who knows.
@ChadP @raptorgorawr My memory doesn’t go back that far so maybe you did. Anyway hope you all feel better soon.
@raptorgorawr Yeah I was a little slow and confused with that one, I figured it out though. Duh me!
It’s definitely one of my favorites, good job!
o.O
O.o
@PHRoG love that phroggie!
Not sure if I’ll regret this new tattoo. It was only my second one. Quite a bit smaller than the sleeve on my other arm
Whew, thank you Kyeh for the heads’ up! Enjoy mah furry cankle, everyone!
@brainmist De nada. But -
you need better lighting!
Get this thing:
https://meh.com/forum/topics/2-pack-odec-3-in-1-led-rechargeable-table-lamp-and-flashlight-2#64d61f3c8565a873e460d91a
@Kyeh LOL, I don’t know that I want better lighting! But I should probably just go back to writing the date, the computer screen baffles my autoflash.
How on earth do I add an image to a post? What am I missing? That’s what I get for being a forum stalker all these years lol
@swstealth If you’re on a computer, it’s the little icon I’ve circled in the image bellow. If you’re on mobile the icon is the same but can only be seen when your phone is in the “landscape” orientation. This is due to the lack of space in the normal “vertical” or “portrait” view most people use their phones in.
I hope that helps!
@swstealth Also, solid effort on the “tattoo.” Too bad we’re not accepting new entries…or fake ones.
Looks like that’s everyone that’s going to get one this time around. Like I said earlier, I’ll get this sent out in the coming day, but thanks for showing up and showing off.
@ExtraMedium
@ExtraMedium Thank you verra much!
@ExtraMedium Yes, like others said. Thank you.
Man, I’m barely in the club, and I’m already missing out. I’m not too sad about it though, I still have the first two sitting in my room.
Can someone explain the reason for including the date in the photo of the tattoo?
)
(I have no interest in receiving an IRK, even less in getting a tattoo - just curious.
@macromeh so they know we’re didn’t get it covered or removed.
@gr8mick1 @macromeh not only that, but people could easily reuse pictures every time if the date was not included.
@bady @gr8mick1 Jeez, I had no idea that there would be such duplicity in the world of tatoo-ery (or IRKs).
IRKs away! You’ll see the orders on your SideDeal order history.
@ExtraMedium Thanks! You working overtime? I thought you generally didn’t work on the weekends?
@Kidsandliz Friday/Saturday. I can be found floating around this place on Sundays.
@ExtraMedium Floating huh? Make sure you don’t short out your computer while floating in a pool while working or something.
@ExtraMedium Thank you!
