Can Meh become a tradable commodity?
1There should be a way to trade mehs and grow and eventually cash them in for a Fukubukaro (SP?) or something else just as worthless.
The smart people at Mediocre should create some sort of market with the sales info, and have people invest their meh clicks in it.
One thought is to divide up the day by 5 minute segments, and people can buy "stock" in them. The difference between each day for that segment would give you a return.
You would have to come up with a formula for the return. Something like, Revenue divided by sales orders, times new users created. You get your number, then you the same calculation for the next day -- subtract those two numbers and you get your return.
Each block would have a value, 12am would be worth more than 11pm.
You could find ways to game the system, but in the end it would benefit Meh. If there's something I want to buy, I could invest my meh for 2pm to 2:05pm block, place my order at 2:01pm, and increase my meh.
This is a pretty silly idea.

What??? Translate that to Korean please. It then might make more sense to me after I back translate it using google. This sounds like something you'd get if you crossed Ponzi with Enron with the Lehman Brothers and then the lot of them decided to invest using Madoff… Bitcoms are the unit of exchange - right? Or was that monopoly money?
@Kidsandliz I've got this meh streak going, and I want to use it for something. May as well turn it into a currency/game and get more.
@Kevin Well I had a nice streak going too until the meh face kidnaping bot got one of mine - unfortunately it grabbed one in the middle of my streak rather than near the beginning… I'll sell you all of mine. USD but must be verified as authentic non counterfeit LOL.
What is this? Settlers of Catan? I'll trade you two Mehs for a Sheep and a Brick!
@curtise I've got wood for sheep.
@JonT Oh my! Really??? I never would have thought that about you.
@JonT that explains so much
@JonT
@curtise Most common phrase said to me: "Nobody wants your f*k*g sheep". I have a shirt now that says that.
@Bogie I have this shirt but it bothers me that there's no ore so I almost never wear it.
@JonT I have in blue. I don't wear it as much because I'm not a big swearer. I wear it to boardgame nights and that's about it.
@Bogie @JonT I want this shirt. But the only person I regularly play Catan with is my somewhat socially conservative daughter. And I'm not even sure I like Catan. I guess, okay, I just like saying "Nobody wants your fucking sheep."
@joelmw Catan is probably one of the only situations where you could say that with any regularity.
@JonT
@JonT So, okay, yeah, I'm not sure exactly how Wilder addresses your last statement, but once I found the image, it needed to be posted. Maybe something to do with your wood, ore whatever.
Now I'm all sad I never played Settlers of Catan. I enjoy games, sheep, and swearing.
my cat's breath smells like cat food.
@carl669 I bent my wookie.
tl;dr wordsmeh
Your meh (I think that we should pluralize "meh" like we do "sheep") are a reward unto themselves.
