[Discussion] Sharing ‘Meh’ With Normies?
6The meh drinking glasses for sale as of this writing got us thinking that they’d look good around a Thanksgiving table. Do you ever have to explain to people why you have Meh gear or an Irk tattoo, etc? How do you explain the, um…lifestyle choice?

People always ask me about my meh bags bc I carry them for all kinds of shit. I just tell them it’s a one a day website that has mehathons where you can get get random stuff.
@Star2236 preach!
the, um…lifestyle choice
@Dakini we know what this is.
@jouest ha… right-o
I have, and I try. I usually get odd looks
You assume there are normal people in my life
@heartny it’s a spectrum
I have, to a few family members and friends, and I’m always surprised that they don’t follow up and become Mehtizens. They’re weird enough, mostly. But that’s actually okay because I feel freer in the forum if I’m semi-anonymous.
@Kyeh you’re playing a dangerous game of doxxing yourself to family…
Normal people usually keep away from me. If they shout a question from a safe distance, I pretend not to understand them and just shrug. Problem solved.
i got my friend’s fiancee hooked on meh and now my friend hates me. i think i also pastadropped her 40lbs of noods, so there’s that.
@carl669 fair play
The response is usually something like “huh” and then the conversation moves on. I feel like it conforms to what people that know me would expect so there’s no instant intrigue of what could have made me buy from a place like this.
I think the next t-shirts you make should say “It’s a Meh thing… you wouldn’t understand”
@ybmuG
Yes!
I have so many Meh shirts it’s ridiculous. I’ve got blue, green, red, maroon, black, charcoal, grey, and it goes on……
People love them, too! I get so many people that look at it and say, “I like your shirt, Meh, I like it”. It literally happens so much my son comments about how many people interact. I explain it to some about what it is, but most I just smile and say thanks!
I finally figured out the best way to pronounce Meh so people don’t think I’m saying Meth.
@heartny enunciate!
@heartny How?
@heartny @Kyeh Don’t touch the back of your top front teeth with your tongue when you say meh
@Kidsandliz I wanted to know how @heartny does it. (I’ve never had anyone think I was saying “meth.”
)
@heartny @Kidsandliz @Kyeh
Tho locally it would be much easier to explain a deal a day meth site!
I usually get compliments on my Meh shirts.
“Someone in this group needed to be Meh; glad you volunteered.”
"They only sell one item a day? What if it’s something you don’t want?
“Then you wait for tomorrow.”
Fun fact, if you chop people up who ask about your meh bags into small enough pieces, you can fit one person in just two bags.
Or so a friend told me.
