Deal Site Haiku Day wrap-up!
12We asked you to write
Some Haiku on other sites
You did it. Good job!
It was awesome seeing Haiku all over the place, even though certain websites may not have appreciated it as much as we did…
”I keep deleting these Haiku but they just keep posting more!”
I saw Haiku on:
- Something Awful Forums
- Ben’s Bargains
- Brad’s Deals
- Fatwallet
- Dealnews
- CNET
- Share My Deal
- Spoofee
- Cheap Ass Gamer
- Tiger Droppings (what?? Oh…it’s an LSU forum!)
- Deals.kinja
- Deals.woot
- Electronics.woot
- Home.Woot
- Shirt.Woot
- Woot.com/Forum
It was really great to see the Meh community infest defile pollute invade drop in on so many boring old online deal sites and try to liven things up.
Without further ado, our favorites!

Miscellaneous
Special mention to @ColeSloth for being extra creative posting on this “deal”
That's a super deal.
I'll need some Doritos now.
This week trees will burn.
@pitamuffin
I don't like to clean.
Vacuum for me, little bot.
What a sweet meh deal!
There was also some great ones sprinkled into this shirt.woot thread, and the Tesla S deals.woot thread.
Picking just a few from each site was really hard because y’all did such a good job! Can’t wait to ask you to bother people on other websites again!
Thank you for playing
It was really so much fun
Have a super day

dammit @mfladd!! it's your fault i didn't win.
@carl669
you may not have won
but you are still a superstar
and oh yes, fuck you!
@mfladd well played mon petit chèvre, well played.
@carl669 - Did you just call @mfladd little goat cheese?
@KDemo mon petite chèvre = my little goat. (cheese is fromage)
@mfladd 5-8-5 I blame uh, you.
@cinoclav Damn you Haiku Nazi. It was good too! (tried to find a haiku nazi image online - they are not there) The blame is mine!
@carl669 I was half joking, but I think we're both right.
Goat cheese, or chèvre (/ˈʃɛvrə/ or /ˈʃɛv/; from the French word for goat), is cheese made out of the milk of goats.
It's @mfladd, the little goat cheese's fault.
@JonT - This will be great on my resumé. Thanks so much!
yes! thanks @jont
All my Haiku's in SlickDeals remained undeleted.
@jont This is RIDiculous. I go OUT OF MY WAY and take 30 seconds to post a thoughtless haiku on a random forum WHILE IM ON THE TOILET AT WORK and all I get is a mention in a random forum thread? Meh used to stand for things like CLASS and HONOR. I may have to take the $100 or so I've spent on this site to someplace where I'm appreciated!!!
@jeffy at first I thought you were trying to send some kind of secret message using only the capitalized words but it ended up being the worst secret message ever:
"RID I OUT OF MY WAY WHILE IM ON THE TOILET AT WORK CLASS HONOR"
@JonT no you got it - just turn those letters into NUMB3RS and then exchange them back for better letters. It says "thanks bro"
Personally, I really liked this one by @vcalzone
does this clean wood floors?
or is it only carpet?
can it clean my soul?
@mfladd this was my response in that thread:
neato cleans the dirt
but not from your inner soul
that'd take at least two
@carl669
that was very good too
yes, you certainly got fucked
but I still like you.
So did I just win a "vac that really sucks?" Yes, I did just quote my own haiku. I am damn proud of my mediocrity. But seriously, did I win a robot vacuum or what?
@epinsly Nope. You just got some cred. The winners were selected randomly yesterday: jschulert, kevin8er, and vampje. This was just a post highlighting favourites (and giving them nothing).
Could be worse... You could have found a deals site that no one else was using and posted a great product description and haiku, got like 30+ page impressions, and not even have merited a mention from @JonT... ;¬)
So you didnt love mine? Thx for ruining my day even further. It already sucked before your casual cruelty.
@f00l - You gotta be cruel to be kind.
@KDemo
see if i ever give 10 sec again that it took me to compose and count syllables. Way to ruin everything, meh.
So...
Vacuum robots, meh!
@JonT is top shit when we
Toilet paper dump
I used it as Jon T not Jont (similar to Joint) also only used @ to tag not an actual part of the Haiku.
I don't like Haiku.
Counting syllables is dumb.
I would rather not.
This is really dumb.
Obviously I should win
But, alas, no luck
Fuck fuckity fuck
Fucked in the fucking fucker
No fucks are given
I don't haiku, I fucku.
Hey! Mine's in the OP! Can I have a vacuum anyway?
Also, the UI on this forum is pretty neat and streamlined. I like it.
No fuku. No win..I suck again.
Well, now I feel sad.
Slick deals deleted my post.
So reposting here:
No HDMI,
Already have two Roombas.
Meh, Slick Deals effect!
Meh is a great place,
Mediocre is it's name
Thank you for being you
I feel cheated. Posted three haiku's in a row on SlickDeals without getting them deleted and not even SlickDeals is on the list of sites.
I haz much sadzness
My haiku were not mentioned
Suck floors with Dyson
