@saramwrap She may literally have some junk in that trunk... there is room for it at any rate. Unless she's English, then I guess it would be "Loot in the boot." :-) I gotta copyright that...
@studerc so my exactly at midnight goodby to the goat (on the other thread) was a wasted effort… (wiping tear away - don't expect me to do it again tomorrow)
@xarous Wasn't aware of the remake, but I'm not too excited about it because I think the original doesn't even hold up now. I'll wait and see how it looks.
@Kidsandliz I think my first reply clearly states I have not read any of those past discussions. I figured that would have been common knowledge by my post -- I'll spell it out next time for you. "I do not know what you are saying nor have I heard or read or seen any discussions prior to it on this said discussion or any other said discussions relating to a situation similar to this, however not necessarily being exact, but close enough."
Sidenote - holy crap the site where I found that is wonderfully 90s, right down to the bright neon green on black color scheme: http://www.netanimations.net/index.htm
I was in for 3 - three more happy kids on my family gift list at christmas : ) Would have been better if they were $5 but I doubt we will see any that cheap here… unless they show up as 15 in a second box fuku 3 LOL I would so buy some of them for $5 from whomever that was who got 15 and then said he didn't know what to do with all of them.
Hmm. Is there such a thing as a small, travel bluetooth speaker that's actually good? I got one [thinking it was Bluetooth and turned out it wasn't. Doh.] from Brookstone that I'm using on my tablet. It's decent as long as you don't have it blasting to where the bass is lacking.
@JT954 Reviews of this one, the few that there are, has the same problem of not much base and distorted base if cranked too high… but then again I think it would be hard to have a lot of base out of something small
@Kidsandliz at first I meh'ed it (notice today's meh face's eyes look like the speakers!). Then I just came back and bought three, for x-mas gifts to folks that aren't music buffs but would appreciate this. The reviews on Amazon all seem to indicate this doesn't play deep bass very well so family and kids it is!
@parksubin 중요한게 있어요!! 저는 몰테일 배대지로 받았는데 - 1.항목에 bluetooth 라는 말을 아예 쓰지 않았고, - 2. 스피커 3개라고 안하고 각자 개별로 아이템 3개를 등록했습니다. - 헐 근데 박수빈 ㅋㅋ 아는 동생 이름인데요..울산사십니까 ㅋㅋ
I bought one only because it's available in purple. But that still didn't keep me from clicking the meh button because it's so meh. That's the second time now. I clicked the meh button on something I bought a couple days ago but it was so meh that now I don't even remember what it was. It's almost like I made my own single-item fukubukuro.
Heck, I'm not even gonna use these! As soon as I get them I'm taking them apart, I need the internals for a vintage radio that I'm converting to Bluetooth and this is way cheaper than getting all the components for the Bluetooth circuit... On top of that I'm making a mini amp to boost the signal and we should be Jammin! Now where did I put that Dr. Dre "Chronic" cassette tape...
If only... (I can dream can't I?).. if only... there were some way to mount a bluetooth speaker on a dyson vacuum. Would this be the ultimate product? Someday, someday...
I'm in for one. I've been looking for a cheap bt speaker to listen to podcasts in my car, so only needed something that was marginally better than the speaker on my phone.
The dome (cover on top) - does anyone know if that is fabric or metal mesh? A reviewer on Amazon says it's fabric but photo of the silver one seems like metal - this is confusing.
@shawn I saw the button in this thread I clicked. Nothing happened.
I'd also suggest putting the button after the product details. Like that it is a bit more obvious (eg darker so stands out marginally more) than the ones in the test threads.
Holy crap, these things really are huge. Got one to take to work so I can drown out my patients. Bonus is that it'll give them something to listen to which helps pass the time while imaging them.
Received mine yesterday and put it in the car this morning. Did pretty much what I expected it to, though I wish it had just a bit more power. Happy for the price; it's not worth much more. No issues with sync. Patch cords are laughably thin, but I don't need them anyway.
I actually like this over my bem speaker. Fuller (sorta) sound and louder, not as nicely packaged but it'll do. Took it apart (of course I did) and the crappy little speaker is in a solid plastic tube with a radiator on the other end. The cover has holes above the speaker, then some on the sides, hence it's bass isn't total crap. And the aux in works great, tried it with my XtremeMac BT adapter I also got today!
What a POS. Disposable is right. After the initial charge, I got about 2 hrs of use out of it before the low battery busy signal came now. Now it won't charge at all. I've since taken it apart to see if I could identify the source of the failure, but it's hard to see if a solder is broke given they coated the whole USB receiver in hot glue... This will be in a landfill very soon. At least I got to repurpose the box it came in to wrap an odd-shaped present. MEH!!!
@jhudiddy08 Had the same problem... Took it apart and melted off the hot glue with a heat gun and found that the solder was still fine. After fucking around with it for a while discovered that the thing is just very picky about chargers for some reason. I can only get it to charge from a 5v 400ma charger and from usb hooked to a computer.
Kind of a POS. Sounds a little louder, fuller with more bass than the X-Kai Mini, but the bluetooth cuts out. Like a loose connection or something. Kind of crackly, without the crackles. Works OK with the enclosed cable. meh.

You guys crack me up with these descriptions.

@dorbi i know right!
@dorbi 풋ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
@dorbi LOL
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 솨라있네 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
@dorbi lololol not best but meh joke ive ever seen!!
Sorry, I just don't have a need for a shit Bluetooth speaker.
How loud is it?
@Fej It's plenty loud in a bustling office but it doesn't exactly thump the bass.....then again it is disposable
@denboy Define "bustling"?
@Fej to abound or teem with something; display an abundance of something; teem (often followed by with):The office bustled with people and activity.
Too literal?
@denboy @Fej
@saramwrap She may literally have some junk in that trunk... there is room for it at any rate. Unless she's English, then I guess it would be "Loot in the boot." :-) I gotta copyright that...
@PocketBrain How about gear in the rear?
@saramwrap I am sensing steatopygia.
@denboy I need it to be loud enough to be heard across my swimming pool. Maybe for $8 I should try it
@foreverpurple can't promise sound results but we do have a purple one
@denboy Which is basically enough reason for me to buy it. Paint a rock purple and sell it for $1 and I'll buy that too. :)
Good thing it has a 1-year warranty. That should more than cover 5 hours of usage!
Well, at least it's available in purple. Otherwise meh.
No Pumpkin color.... I'm getting really tired of your shit, Meh.
@RicoSuave Get the white one, then when you're carving your Jack-O-Lantern...
Freedom!!!...wait a second....NOOOO!
@studerc +1.... wait a second... Yassss!
@studerc Nope, you've still got the goat. I'm sure that's still your fault.
@studerc Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
@PurplePawprints I for one, welcome our new scapegoat @thumperchick because let's be honest, it's her fault it hasn't moved over yet.
@Thumperchick perhaps the meh gods have looked down on you favorably and simply decided the honor should remain in the hands of the current goat.
@KDemo @JonT
@studerc @JonT said you keep the crown until tomorrow. Sleep well mwa ha ha .
@KDemo where??
@studerc True, too true.
@studerc The Spooky Scapegoat thread. "Cast your star votes and we'll crown a new patsy tomorrow."
@KDemo technically, in meh terms, today is, er um, tomorrow. Fuckin paradox, man...
@studerc You got the goat late, you give up the goat late. Enjoy your extra day!
@studerc so my exactly at midnight goodby to the goat (on the other thread) was a wasted effort… (wiping tear away - don't expect me to do it again tomorrow)
@studerc I'm waiting on keyboard goat....
My Fuku contained both a speaker dock and a bluetooth speaker adapter.
That's 2 nights a week now I know I don't have to come to mEh to check on the deal...
@GenCurmudgeon Meh*
@GenCurmudgeon Putting the "eh" in mEh I see.
Disposable Speaker 10, any relation to Johnny Number 5?
@somf69 I believe the wrote up is in reference to today's Microsoft Windows 10 announcement :)
@Timotatoe
@somf69 I believe the write up is in reference to today's Microsoft Windows 10 announcement :)
@somf69 Johnny Five...is alive!! I loved that movie so much when I was a kid. Sequel was no good though.
@JonT Glad they are remaking it? You know it was suppose to hit theaters in 2013.
@xarous I for one am tired of all the gritty reboots.
@xarous Wasn't aware of the remake, but I'm not too excited about it because I think the original doesn't even hold up now. I'll wait and see how it looks.
Good sound, but not great.
@StaySharp Sounds well.
oh yay a bluetooth speaker in for 3
/meh
I'm going to buy 2 and make a Bra
@somf69 I guess it would be called a Mehdenform Bra?
Well, at least now we know for sure that the descriptions are not all written weeks in advance. (I have no idea if some are)
Damn that thing is fugly, Meh!
These speakers don't have pagination. For that reason alone, I'm out.
@phatmass
I really have no idea what this even means.
@rizzo297 read the thread on pagination on the threads...
@Kidsandliz in bed...on phone. Meh...too far away
@rizzo297 don't actually need to read it - just knowing it has been intensively discussed - thus his reference to it...
@Kidsandliz I think my first reply clearly states I have not read any of those past discussions. I figured that would have been common knowledge by my post -- I'll spell it out next time for you. "I do not know what you are saying nor have I heard or read or seen any discussions prior to it on this said discussion or any other said discussions relating to a situation similar to this, however not necessarily being exact, but close enough."
@rizzo297 @phatmass was making a joke the same way people joke about purple, speaker docks, georgia red...
such meh
In for 3 - more trash for the gift stash
Perfect for providing soundtrack while riding the mountain... and no worries if you yard sale it...
I ordered the all white one and got scarce-refined-ghost. Meh heh heh heh
@harbour Spooky!!
Sidenote - holy crap the site where I found that is wonderfully 90s, right down to the bright neon green on black color scheme: http://www.netanimations.net/index.htm
@JonT this is a national treasure.
@JonT That site was last updated in May of this year!!! Who wouldn't change their "landmark status" to something more modern...
@rizzo297 Someone who's making enough money from "Russian Senior Dating for Men" to really care, that's who.
Those AOL CDs might be worth $10 or so. 3 sold listings at eBay:
ebay listing 1
ebay listing 2
ebay listing 3
I have about a thousand of them in the basement.
@bdb why would anyone want those? more importantly, why do you have thousands?
@bdb your sudden release of the knowledge that thousands more exist could cause the worldwide market price to crash
@capguncowboy I am collecting CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs for an art project. I have about 5,000, and about a quarter are AOL CDs, I would guesstimate.
@denboy Don't worry, your eBay profits aren't in jeopardy. I'm sure most of my collection are much more common AOL CDs, not the more collectible ones!
I'd buy one if I had a Sansa to use with it.....
@eeterrific yeah, where are the SANSAs??
Do they still make Hostess Sno Balls?
Meh loves bluetooth...
I think you have my stapler...
I was in for 3 - three more happy kids on my family gift list at christmas : ) Would have been better if they were $5 but I doubt we will see any that cheap here… unless they show up as 15 in a second box fuku 3 LOL I would so buy some of them for $5 from whomever that was who got 15 and then said he didn't know what to do with all of them.
@Kidsandliz I figure this will show up on 2-For-Tuesday at 10 bucks for 2 of them.
Hmm. Is there such a thing as a small, travel bluetooth speaker that's actually good? I got one [thinking it was Bluetooth and turned out it wasn't. Doh.] from Brookstone that I'm using on my tablet. It's decent as long as you don't have it blasting to where the bass is lacking.
@JT954 Reviews of this one, the few that there are, has the same problem of not much base and distorted base if cranked too high… but then again I think it would be hard to have a lot of base out of something small
@Kidsandliz all your base are belong to meh. no base to you bastard.
@unixrab there was something else this got posted for before… maybe the tribble looking giant rabbit?
@Kidsandliz they sell a lot of tribble-looking mehs
purple meh !
i imagine only ebay resalers are buying BT speakers here at this point
@username No I just bough them as christmas gifts and they are finally cheaper than most of the others that were sold earlier.
@Kidsandliz at first I meh'ed it (notice today's meh face's eyes look like the speakers!). Then I just came back and bought three, for x-mas gifts to folks that aren't music buffs but would appreciate this. The reviews on Amazon all seem to indicate this doesn't play deep bass very well so family and kids it is!
Does it play anything other than http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KK23BhEQVyU
저의 경우는
저번 bem 블투 스피커를
색상 다르게 해서
한번에 3개를 전파인증 없이 들여온 경험이 있습니다
아니면 오더를 여러번 넣고
날짜도 두번 세번 나눠서
여러개를 살수도 있어요~
많이사세요~
@sherryblue 그말믿고 세개 사봅니다
@parksubin 중요한게 있어요!! 저는 몰테일 배대지로 받았는데 - 1.항목에 bluetooth 라는 말을 아예 쓰지 않았고, - 2. 스피커 3개라고 안하고 각자 개별로 아이템 3개를 등록했습니다. - 헐 근데 박수빈 ㅋㅋ 아는 동생 이름인데요..울산사십니까 ㅋㅋ
@sherryblue 울산사는 박수빈 이뻐요? 이름 이쁘다
Guess it won't play:
@xarous all you bass are...
Bluetooth? Is that anything like Red Beard..? If so I'll watch that for a dollar.
I bought one only because it's available in purple. But that still didn't keep me from clicking the meh button because it's so meh. That's the second time now. I clicked the meh button on something I bought a couple days ago but it was so meh that now I don't even remember what it was. It's almost like I made my own single-item fukubukuro.
Will it bend?
@Opemiyaku No, but I also doubt it will fit in your pocket
@Opemiyaku makes me remind "will it blend?" clips on youtube. I used to watch it all day.iphone blending was epic. that is all. bye
Photochop on amazon is almost as good as meh's photochop.
Does this speaker still use live tiles? As long as the Start menu is back.
No Georgia Red. . . for that alone, meh.
Heck, I'm not even gonna use these! As soon as I get them I'm taking them apart, I need the internals for a vintage radio that I'm converting to Bluetooth and this is way cheaper than getting all the components for the Bluetooth circuit... On top of that I'm making a mini amp to boost the signal and we should be Jammin! Now where did I put that Dr. Dre "Chronic" cassette tape...
No Georgia Red. . . for that, I'll take 3.
@dnash commie
If only... (I can dream can't I?).. if only... there were some way to mount a bluetooth speaker on a dyson vacuum. Would this be the ultimate product? Someday, someday...
@GlennAMercer duct tape
@GlennAMercer a little velcro & it should ride on the Neato quite nicely
Well, 5th purchase in a row. Meh, you are coddling my impulsive nature :P.
Why can I only buy 3?
@createfully Because tri-o-phonic music is just so meh.
I believe you have my stapler!
@Quantumcat If it is gone only a week, it's just borrowing.
I'm in for one. I've been looking for a cheap bt speaker to listen to podcasts in my car, so only needed something that was marginally better than the speaker on my phone.
I hope you don't get sued... You know DSW is trademarked right? It is my wish then that Disposable Speaker Wednesday does not continue.
How big is this thing? Is that a full-size stapler? Can I get a measurement? It looks softball size.
@katbyter Click on the amazon link. I think it said around 5" or 6" in diameter so I'd guess that is a full sized stapler...
@katbyter it's the standard office space red stapler
The dome (cover on top) - does anyone know if that is fabric or metal mesh?
A reviewer on Amazon says it's fabric but photo of the silver one seems like metal - this is confusing.
@EnTerr it's fabric
i wanted to buy 1 million of them..so i could double my money...anybody got an extra million i can borrow?.ill pay ya back!..i promise!
@shawn I saw the button in this thread I clicked. Nothing happened.
I'd also suggest putting the button after the product details. Like that it is a bit more obvious (eg darker so stands out marginally more) than the ones in the test threads.
mmmbop in the photo? obligatory:

Nothing is disposable to meeeeeeeee I'd rather disassemble and get the bluetooth moduleeeeeee
@NAMeh Dude, totally. Broken gadgets are full of useful goodies.
Hasn't gotten here yet. Hopefully by the end of the day!
Disposable is fitting... Used it once now it won't charge.
I can't find windows 7 driver for it. Windows finds the bluetooth device but can not connect to it. Has anyone connected via windows 7 ?
One came in the wrong color, but it's meh. Can't expect more.
I actually like this over my bem speaker. Fuller (sorta) sound and louder, not as nicely packaged but it'll do.
