@ExtraMedium I only wanted to make a joke about error 499, I promise. (Also it keeps editing my slash s into a Mr. Shrug, I gave up trying to fix that.) I know you all are working hard to get these high demand collectibles into the hands of rabid fans. Thank you for what you do and happy Black Friday.
To further clarify for anyone who is new here reading this: This place is DEFINITELY NOT A SCAM. That was just a callback to some poor person’s rant. Please don’t pile on saying it is because that was a joke. This whole place is built on jokes, though, so there is that. And welcome.
@sammydog01 that was also a joke, I wouldn’t expect it, and I’ve been trying very hard to exchange $21.73 for one for the better part of an hour now Congrats on scoring yours!
HA! I was figuring OF COURSE, what else would I expect when it’s got something to do with IRK! I even started getting that shakey anxiety like from mehrathons of the good ole days when we had to be quick and stress about scoring an IRK! (Then I realized I didn’t eat dinner and THAT was just low blood sugar! Whoops, my bad!)
First, the page wouldn’t load and then I couldn’t see any pictures, nevermind that I couldn’t click on the clicky face because the entire page started flashing, and I’m talking about let’s bring on a seizure kind of flashing! I was beginning to have regret for even thinking I WANTED/NEEDED one or 3 of these cute little IRKs! UGH… Please Meh, don’t have me regretting this purchase! IF I’m ever able to make it!
I have wanted one of these for the better part of a decade. Now that it’s finally available to (maybe) buy… I don’t actually know that I really need another “thing” adding to my clutter. I’ve already donated boxes upon boxes of stuffed critters my kids grew out of. Do I really need another one?
@shahnm kind of the same, man… But I jumped on it for that nostalgia. And I have a young kid now, so it theoretically could be for him. Haven’t decided if Irk will be his buddy or an observer in my office. But we couldn’t have wanted it for this long and not get it.
@djslack@shahnm Dang, you guys are so complicated. I just straight up wanted one, and I’m getting one!!! (Unless as @pakopako suggested there’s some big fubar situation that puts us all in suspense or something.)
Oh, I guess the potential for a fuck-up is right there in the write-up; I did all this backwards; bought him before I read anything on the page.
Apologies to anyone having trouble with the site and offer. The team is working on it. In the meantime, enjoy the video on repeat.

@djslack Did you get an answer about ink for irks? Looked like a maybe on Twitter? Not that I need another one.

@djslack just because the place is built on jokes doesn’t mean it’s is a punchline.
@djslack No worries at all, I was laughing with you!
/showme website ran by a troll
@mediocrebot trink tro, indeed!
@medz Troll Frid it short for “Troll Friday” of course.
So, like, if I got an email confirmation that means I got one, right?

@mossygreen if they ever get them in stock… Maybe…
I did it! I bought the 100th one!
/giphy crusty-pungent-caption
I take back everything I said. But error 499 is the same as error 500, c’mon, get real. We know about rounding.
@djslack Yay!
@djslack @mossygreen Now go buy two more.
@sammydog01 eh, I think if I wait some closeout site will pick them up and I can get a deal.
Meh isn’t used to more than five people buying an item, so their servers weren’t prepared for the deluge.
How did they get the knife into their hands?
WHY did they get the knife into their hands?
@pakopako Why is there no speaker dock?!

No. I don’t.
And yet…

@shahnm That’s the spirit! Grim resignation.

@djslack @Kyeh @pakopako @shahnm
I thought that’s the normal practice, hence the “these are all expired already” posts on some food items.
I more so expect a “born on” date for Irk, however.
@djslack @Kyeh @narfcake @pakopako @shahnm Buying one at 12:02, meaning I’m better than everyone else, was worth the twenty bucks.
@sammydog01
You are better than anyone else. You got the messed up webpage to load.
