@Nexar I got a shitty android tablet that wouldn’t charge. I fixed the broken wire, now all is well. I also got, what looks to be, a pottery sculpture of medusa. It’s pretty fucking creepy, and it will be the crown jewel of my white elephant box this Christmas (the sculpture, not the tablet).
@studerc Sorry for the double (now triple) post. There was forum lag and page reloading and it ended up sticking twice. Then, it took too long to delete during the edit window.
But ya know, I was a minute late (I usually start loading the page at one minute til) because I was giving my sick kitty a drink of water. And she’s more important to me than stuff. Even Roombas. Congrats to those who got one.
@lisaviolet Unfortunately, she’s big sick. Heart and lung problems. She’s stable, but pretty much an invalid. She only gets out of bed to use her potty box. (I’m grateful she’s still able to do that!) I have an oxygen machine, and I give her oxygen whenever she gets real wheezy. Who knew having emphysema would be handy for kitty care?
@jqubed Definitely wasn’t going to reload in favor of another gif. Though I did think twice about it considering where this took place. Not exactly a good night to be making fun of Dallas.
Almost. I just didn’t in my tired state notice I had a “you’re a robot” to click. Oh well. Happy almost birthday meh. May it be as mediocre as you desire to be.
For fuck sake. I got to the checkout screen and then it tells me it’s sold out. Do I need to live on top of the effin server to get one of these things?
@lionheartssj I managed to finally get one. The key is to check at 12:00:00. If you refresh at 11:59, then the additional time needed for the second refresh will allow it to sell out.
HOW? I was literally watching the system clock count down and I refreshed EXACTLY on the hour! Then I verified I wasn’t a robot, as fast as a non-robot could, then it was already sold out. 291 sold. I wish I was a fucking robot.
@Frijid If you could see a number of them already sold by the time your page loaded and you clicked buy, it was already way too late to process your sale before they were already gone. So, maybe you need to make sure your clock is adjusted to the second or something…
@squatchy I think it’s pretty sordid. Usually I edit my post and resubmit if the initial gif doesn’t appeal. Giphy will offer another one, and when I see one I feel is appropriate (or really gross, or rude, or whatever), I leave it. However, nothing better came up, and it was taking forever. Meh.
@lisaviolet That what my husband did tonight and we actually finally got thru. I owe him big time now. Now he is going around the house singing “I am the champion”.
@lisaviolet Funny how many people say to start refreshing early. From experience I know it’s not going to switch over until a moment after the clock hits 12. I don’t refresh until a split second after that. I’d think you would have worse odds if you happened to refresh just before that and it was still reloading the old page when the new one came up.
If I refresh at 9 (or 12 for you eastcoasters), there’s a chance I’ll miss it. But if I refresh at just the right split second before that magic hour, I’ll be right in.
But I have to be on the PC. It doesn’t work with any other devices.
Unexpected. The text from Twitter came through as I was watching a YouTube video on my phone and I somehow managed to get in, not be a robot, and buy it already!
@jbrookebarrow … Because there’s no official meh dance that you can do on his noggin’, you should give him a 720p picture of the empty meh bag just to let him know what he missed out on (and to taunt him of course).
Was apparently my turn to get raped by the catcha. Checked it and got an error about Google being unable to return it, refreshed then was sold out. My birthday is tomorrow but at least I knew I tried 100%. Congrats those who scored!
For fuck sake. I got to the checkout screen and then it tells me it’s sold out. Do I need to live on top of the effin server to get one of these things?
@GeeNay People complain about the East Coast deal - I never have trouble getting through when I am watching and I live in Maine. Me and 3 other co-workers were able to snag them on this time. Basically people just like to make excuses.
Matter of fact - If you look at the map…I think Maine took the most of them out of everywhere.
@WUZUP1998 well I can’t say much for that because I have before been stuck many times in the spinning hell where the website goes down or everything freezes and used to actually have an alarm set to try and get a jump to be awake to hit the refresh on days I felt could be special and never had success. At this point I say it’s basically all luck and I’m just happy to have finally been lucky enough to snag one and would like others to know that one day they may be lucky too as long as the stars align Also you seem to have much more luck than I, perhaps playing the mega millions would be smart Oh anddd Maine is beautiful! A friend is from there and got married up there a few years ago and coming from the sunshine state, it was something I could certainly get used to being in during the summer months lol. Everything was so green
@GeeNay Oh no question there is a fair amount of luck involved. There’s certainly not much time for anything else when they show up. I don’t know how many of these I’ve snagged but it’s been quite a few.
Yeah everyone who comes to Maine enjoys the scenery. We certainly have some of the best views anywhere! But when you’re from a place…sometimes the grass looks greener on the other side too. I could go for traveling and seeing different places.
@whistlingwilly My last one made purchase #99 for me. Still wondering if I’ll win a prize with purchase 100. More than 10% of my purchases were Fuko/Fukus. Interesting.
got here before any sold, but just moved and had to update shipping info. Oh well- it was going to go general delivery to the post office, so it would have been awkward if I got something big. On the plus side, site didn’t crash so I didn’t waste a ton of time. Thanks for that and another year of getting me great deals on things I never knew I wanted.
@MehnofLaMehncha You did not refresh at exactly the new deal time unless you have a crappy connection that took a long time to load.
My Macbook Pro and my phone both sync time (via internet and AT&T) to within one second of each other. The domain PC at work is often 15 seconds ahead of both, and my friend’s PC laptop (standalone, uses time dot windows dot com for network time sync) is also often 15 seconds or more different from my phone and Mac.
Don’t know why the diff, but when my exactly at 11PM phone alarm rings, if I wait for the second beep and shift-refresh the browser, I seem to catch the item change at just the right second. I’ve managed to snag fukos/fukus at home on Comcast, at work on SNet, and even traveling with a Karma hotspot (which is not all that fast) just because of the timing.
@juststephen There’s a tiny straw that runs up from the cup through the pouring liquid back into the can, attached to a pump, so that way it can appear like it’s always pouring nonstop. (that’s how the real ones work, anyway)
Man, of all the nights for my fucking browser to hang when creating a new simple fucking tab. Fucking spinning ball of death. Did it sellout in seven fucking seconds?
Sigh. Happy birthday Meh.
You’re still my favorite site.
Fuck Meh, these capchus do not work properly on the stupid fucking chromebook they sold me. either drop this shit or delay these at least, so all us with the chromebooks you sold can have 5 minutes to get to a windows OS running machine.
Had a feeling it would be tonight --yeah happy Fuko birthday bag snagged tonight --now I am going to buy a mega millions lottery ticket for tomorrow’s drawing and hope I’m just as lucky-- well maybe luckier
Wow…happy zero-day re-re-celebration meh!! Been here since day zero, and finally scored a fuku. Amazing how well the site worked too. I hope you have many more anniversary’s, cause you know how to celebrate them.
I’ve clicked the Meh! button a grand total of 417 times and never scored a Fuko bag and tonight after so many times, I scored a Fuko bag!-- what have I’ve been doing with my life…
This is fucking BULLSHIT MEH ! I can order any fucking any damn thing from your site and my credit card number stays in just fine. Comes time to buy one of these bags I have to re-enter my card number, then it gives an X after I enter my expiration date so I can never get to put in the damn cc code - BULLSHIT - Keep your bags and the rest of your crap too
Haven’t scored a Fuko since Fuko 5 I think. Funny story is I was reminded to check when the Woot! App buzzed me at 11 for some stupid monitor. I checked meh instead and scored!
FINAlLY! Was on Woot for 3 years before it went to the A overlords and could never ever get a BOC–stumbled here bout 6 months ago–I have now fulfilled my bucket list–
2 years of irking vip members and stringing people along buying a bunch of crap they dont need. Happy screw you Meh Day! And you still owe me a Fuku Bag! Oh wait… I am acting like one. Dammit…
@paulie0717 log out and log back in at 11:59:30 (eastern), then refresh the screen promptly at 12:00:00 and you will be right there with everyone else. Make sure your cache is cleared, close all other tabs or windows before clearing the cache, and do whatever else needed to make sure you’re getting the fastest connection possible with your ISP.
I got one, but cancelled the order. After seeing that purchasing it would leave only $8 in my checking account, I decided it would be best not to pick it up, no matter how much I want it.
Annoyed that my calendar event didn’t alert me. I’ve fixed that issue for next year hopefully. Otherwise I congratulate everyone who got one, wish Meh a very happy birthday, and I know I still need to post my photos from my first successful fuko order. I suspect some items might be in common with what other people got but I definitely love one of them in particular and made use of the others.
I have never scored a bag but tonight my husband was on Meh prior to zero hour and scored. Happy Birthday Meh and Happy Birthday me since he says this is my bday gift. Only problem is my bday isn’t until November. Making me wait that long is mean.
well dang it - missed this one. That said. my last bag was literally 24 empty coke bottles tossed in a large box with no packing that banged and bounced all the way from Texas to California via some states back east - many shards of broken glass to say the least
Been preparing for a yard sale and showing of our house since we are moving so I forgot what time it was! Oh, bother! Can’t complain too much though- got the last fuko and it was awesome!
@itsherediatary Random grab bags that may contain awesomeness, but mostly likely contains junk and crap. They are highly sought after and sell out extremely fast.
Tornado hit on the minute. Shouldn’t I grt a consolation prize for not getting sucked up and going to Oz? Wait. I live in Kansas… regardless, I need a consolation prize for not making it on time due to imminent weather!
@Veloslave Now you know why I stockpile pretty pictures to post. The Malevolent Order Name Generator offerings range from boring to repulsive, and when they get too bad, I post a .jpg of my choice.
Hopefully one of the dumb ideas you have planned is to sell the losers who always miss out on the Fuck You Buckaroo bags an empty meh bag for cost. I need a new grocery bag. Weh.
Yipee. The last time I got “lucky” was a “woot bag of crap”! I wonder if my wife and I will get another day-glow pink dildo? We laughed so hard when we saw it that we’ve wanted another bag since then.
Screw it. This was a wasted day. I was all ready to blow my Kershaw credit load on the face on tonight’s meh offering, but no, instead I left unsatisfied. I won’t be wiping off my damp VMPness on the drapes tonight, Meh.
Dang. Went out to pick up a prescription for my wife and forgot. Got the text notification, and made it all the way to the order confirmation. If the “Yes, fine, buy it already” button hadn’t loaded before the Captcha… maybe.
“What just happened?” Ben asks.
Fukobukuro!
“What the hell is that?” Herme asks…
…
An hour later, I’m bragging on Meh.com about FINALLY getting a Fuko.
Are you glad you asked?
…
What? Someone asked! Didn’t they?
Well, fuck you then. I don’t care, I’m getting a bag full of random shit from Meh.com that somebody else didn’t want, for $5.
I was right there at the rollover - Johnny on the spot, as it were - but maybe just a little too quick. I must have beat the Captcha. It kept warning me to confirm I wasn’t a robot, but there was nothing present to do so.
After a bit of searching I refreshed he page and was finally able to see the check box. But alas, something went terribly wrong, the sellout was already upon us.
Congrats and good luck to those that got them. Looking forward to vicarious reveals.
Happy birthday, Meh. Let’s do this shirt for another year!
For those who didn’t get one of these awesome trash bags, don’t give up! Until this one, I’d only missed 10 in a row. Yes it’s frustrating, and sure makes you wonder how someone could have gotten all 11 of them, or even two of 'em?
Don’t junk your VMP, don’t throw the phone, just be happy you still have that $5 in your virtual pocket, and plan to be lucky next time. For one day, you will taste the sweet nectar of victory, and smell the putrid smell of the trash bags, and it will all be awesome, or at least OK.
If it weren’t for Kickstarter I wouldn’t have ever been able to get a Fuko. Hoping for the chance again. Right now that would only be on Friday or Saturday nights. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEH!
That went surprisingly well after missing the last few Fuko’s after being called out as a robot on my mobile phone. This time, still on my phone, I only needed to check-mark that I wasn’t a robot, and then click buy. Bingo, loping-loping-party. First time I’ve seen the same word twice in a order number.
I have never yearned for guaranteed garbage before. What the hell is wrong with me. I must have a Fuku, just one little taste.
However, I’m about to move from Washington DC to San Fran… So I’m joining the silver spoon elite Fuku thief’s on the west and can start getting to bed at a decent hour.
@carl669 So, while I’m staying up until midnight (UTC-5) to try and get one of these things, you’re complaining about having to go online at 13:00 in the afternoon?!! Think I’d rather be UTC+8 and get a good night’s sleep. Just saying.
BAH HUMBUG!!! 1 MIN… UGH.Since I started a new shift, it is harder to stay up… Seems like it wouldn’t matter. At 1 min… And to think, I have to wish you a Happy Birthday, and I don’t get a Gift Bag? BooHoo. Loyal Follower that I am, I hope you don’t send me another itemized list of all I have spent…
I missed it! Aargh! I’m beginning to regret throwing out my dusty floor sweeper full of spider eggs if for no other reason that it was a reminder that I DID have a nice lucky string of fuku luck going until kablammo
Never, ever got a boc or crap from the other site or this one! and I have been a member since the first year of the aforementioned site. I consider that to be a record - not that I am proud of - but still…
@tonylegrone Mine’s the same weight, 2lbs. How many $100 bills makes up 2lbs.? Each bill weighs 1 gram. There are 453.59237 grams in a pound so 2lbs is 907.18474 grams. that makes 907ish bills in my 2lb Fuko! So my Fuko is worth about $90,700. Not bad, not bad at all!
/giphy Show me the money
@Nexar sometimes actual weight – last one I got was actually about two pounds , with only a few things inside --nothing special about the items but still fun to receive
@Mehrocco_Mole Based on today’s prices, 2 pounds of gold would be worth $38,749.95 so if your calculations are correct, two pounds of cash would be worth more than 2 pounds of gold.
eeeek! got a notice that my bag has shipped.
earlier (before I saw the notice) I had a box from Meh that I thought was the bag. I was almost afraid to open it.
it turned out to be my LED light bulbs.
phew!
Meh bag
Dr. Seuss pop-up book - Happy Birthday to You
Precious Moments “God Loveth A Cheerful Giver,” from June of 1998
Copper Mule Cup (or at least it looks copper)
I like Irk T-shirt, medium
Like I said, Meh
BUT WAIT…something inside the bag:
A beer cozie with Meh. on it
A Meh. magnet - nope, wrong. Not a magnet. Maybe a Meh. sticker? Yes, a Meh. sticker.
AND black sunglasses with purple (Barney?) temples and Meh. printed on the temples.
Same here – hoping against hope for roomba so it can I can “clean” up literally and figuratively too–love the anticipation well not really but hey it’s "meh"nificent ( think magnificent ) waiting and waiting and waiting some more –
So in honor of meh I think this is appropriate -
Meh what can I do, meh I live to get fukos from you. The wait seems long I know that’s true but we couldn’t be fuko’ed without being med’d by you. Waiting seems cruel and leaves some of us blue but meh oh meh we look forward to you.
Today I ponder what will my fuko box bring, perhaps a Drone perhaps a swing ( well that would be interesting). What is sure is that it will be a box of several thing(s). Could be speaker docks or just speakers ,does that "sound " right too? Possibly a chrome book so we could "compute"with you. Meh socks , meh bags, meh aprons and even bags of Texas air I’ve gotten from you. I’m excited yet concerned at the same time too.
Meh I say meh what can I do , meh oh me we can’t get fukos without you. So we will wait and ponder our fate be it early fukos or be they late.We will wish and dream for gifts from you Meh Oh meh we can’t wait to hear from you-- (well meh be not:).)
3.2 lbs… I’m assuming that means I don’t get a speaker dock Savoring the anticipation is all well and good, but FedEx has only managed to move it about 20 miles in the past 20 hours. Only 218 miles to go…
Arrived today:
The obligatory Meh bag with Meh Coozie, Meh sunglasses and a Meh sticker; a Futurama tin sign; a bag of temporary tattoos, a rechargeable floating BlueTooth Banana Boat pool speaker, an XL black tee shirt with a “V” inside a shield outline (significance??) and a 3’x5’ Amehrican flag. (and 10 bags of Texas air)

@Nexar My last fuko had almost 200$ worth of stuff. Was pretty lucky for me.
@fuzzyninja I got a broken blu ray player and some beer baseball caps. ymmv I guess
@Nexar I got a shitty android tablet that wouldn’t charge. I fixed the broken wire, now all is well. I also got, what looks to be, a pottery sculpture of medusa. It’s pretty fucking creepy, and it will be the crown jewel of my white elephant box this Christmas (the sculpture, not the tablet).
@jzmacdaddy my shitty android tablet also doesnt charge. How did you fix it?
@Endreo Check the USB port. Mine was gutted. Replaced it and now it’s good to go.

Yes! I am hitting a streak now.
Sold out in 1 min?
Well that was fast.
Aw. I missed out.
But ya know, I was a minute late (I usually start loading the page at one minute til) because I was giving my sick kitty a drink of water. And she’s more important to me than stuff. Even Roombas. Congrats to those who got one.
@Pony Way more important! I’ll share my crappy fuku contents with you since you were selflessly tending to Kitty.
@jbrookebarrow Aw, you’re sweet. No need to do that, though. It’s all good.
@Pony I don’t mind spreading the crap.
@Pony I hope your kitty is just a little sick and not major sick.
@Pony I hope your kitty is better. We worry. If you want to try for some more loot, go to https://meh.com/forum/topics/birthday-adventure-story.
@lisaviolet Unfortunately, she’s big sick. Heart and lung problems. She’s stable, but pretty much an invalid. She only gets out of bed to use her potty box. (I’m grateful she’s still able to do that!) I have an oxygen machine, and I give her oxygen whenever she gets real wheezy. Who knew having emphysema would be handy for kitty care?
@Pony She’s beautiful. We’ve lost three this year. One to heart disease (bad thyroid), one to dry FIP and just a few days ago, to kidney failure.
It’s hard. I hope you have a lot of time left with her.
@lisaviolet I’m so sorry to hear about your furbabies.
@Pony Thank you.
Sold out what the fuck.
@Tom223 usually happens >45 seconds
@jbrookebarrow <45 seconds
@cinoclav well which is it?
@a13z Usually less than 45 seconds. Unless they include 300 reCaptchas…

And on my birthday too. (7/7) So I guess I’ll say happy birthday to us.
@russellwilde Happy birthday!
@russellwilde happy birthday!!
For fuck sake. I got to the checkout screen and then it tells me it’s sold out. Do I need to live on top of the effin server to get one of these things?
@lionheartssj It wouldn’t hurt. Probably wouldn’t help much either, though
@lionheartssj Nah, I live near Philly and got one though my phone connected to my wifi. A little luck helps.
@lionheartssj I managed to finally get one. The key is to check at 12:00:00. If you refresh at 11:59, then the additional time needed for the second refresh will allow it to sell out.
HOW? I was literally watching the system clock count down and I refreshed EXACTLY on the hour! Then I verified I wasn’t a robot, as fast as a non-robot could, then it was already sold out. 291 sold. I wish I was a fucking robot.
@Frijid Looks like 522 sold (at the moment).
@Frijid If you could see a number of them already sold by the time your page loaded and you clicked buy, it was already way too late to process your sale before they were already gone. So, maybe you need to make sure your clock is adjusted to the second or something…
Finally!!! Got my first one!!! Yeah!!!
I already regret my decision.

@sprayward start refreshing at 11:59 with one hand, have the mouse on the buy button and don’t even think about it.
@lisaviolet That what my husband did tonight and we actually finally got thru. I owe him big time now. Now he is going around the house singing “I am the champion”.

/giphy unfortunate-needless-news
@lisaviolet Funny how many people say to start refreshing early. From experience I know it’s not going to switch over until a moment after the clock hits 12. I don’t refresh until a split second after that. I’d think you would have worse odds if you happened to refresh just before that and it was still reloading the old page when the new one came up.
@cinoclav Well, this is from last night…
If I refresh at 9 (or 12 for you eastcoasters), there’s a chance I’ll miss it. But if I refresh at just the right split second before that magic hour, I’ll be right in.
But I have to be on the PC. It doesn’t work with any other devices.
I wish the app didn’t suck so bad so we could actually use it to get one of these…
@a1000wtp what app are you using? Meh does not have a official app.
@conandlibrarian well then… That’s probably the problem lol. I can’t remember where I found this app…
Unexpected. The text from Twitter came through as I was watching a YouTube video on my phone and I somehow managed to get in, not be a robot, and buy it already!
Happy day zero birthday, Meh!
WooHoo!!! Pastel-Bodacious-Boat
Yes! Got one! Happy Birthday, Meh!
Finally got one! (again, I wasn’t human for the last few…)
Happy Birthday Meh!

Meh just took my fuko virginity.

Happy Birthday Meh.com.
11:01 and I don’t get one. I never get one. I’ve never, ever gotten a bag. I’m so unbelievably pissed off.
@TheStas in all likelihood you’re not missing much
Had my calendar marked for tonight and my husband thought I was crazy. I got one though! And he can have zero bits of it!
@jbrookebarrow … Because there’s no official meh dance that you can do on his noggin’, you should give him a 720p picture of the empty meh bag just to let him know what he missed out on (and to taunt him of course).
@jbrookebarrow This is now on MY calendar
Sigh. 9:01 and crashed out on payment page. Pout.
Got one! Yay!
Darn, I missed it.
/giphy poop emoji
crumby-excitedly-market .…
12:01am (11:01pm central) and it sold out… unbelievable…!!
Woo hoo got one
Was apparently my turn to get raped by the catcha. Checked it and got an error about Google being unable to return it, refreshed then was sold out. My birthday is tomorrow but at least I knew I tried 100%. Congrats those who scored!
FINALLY!!! It’s my lucky day!
Hah, I panicked when I was trying to hit the I’m not a robot button and instead hit the back button.

@peaceetc congrats!
@cwolfpack3 Thanks, Cindy! I hope you got one, too.
@peaceetc I did! Yippee!
For fuck sake. I got to the checkout screen and then it tells me it’s sold out. Do I need to live on top of the effin server to get one of these things?
Wow, I actually got one!
Very first Fuko ever and I joined day 1! There is hope for the east coast yet!!! Happy day of birth and hail to the malicious-altruistic-dove
@GeeNay sorry to disappoint, this is a fuko, Meh.
@Yoda_Daenerys my last fuko I got a brand new $500 roomba. It’s all luck.
@GeeNay People complain about the East Coast deal - I never have trouble getting through when I am watching and I live in Maine. Me and 3 other co-workers were able to snag them on this time. Basically people just like to make excuses.
Matter of fact - If you look at the map…I think Maine took the most of them out of everywhere.
@WUZUP1998 well I can’t say much for that because I have before been stuck many times in the spinning hell where the website goes down or everything freezes and used to actually have an alarm set to try and get a jump to be awake to hit the refresh on days I felt could be special and never had success. At this point I say it’s basically all luck and I’m just happy to have finally been lucky enough to snag one and would like others to know that one day they may be lucky too as long as the stars align Also you seem to have much more luck than I, perhaps playing the mega millions would be smart Oh anddd Maine is beautiful! A friend is from there and got married up there a few years ago and coming from the sunshine state, it was something I could certainly get used to being in during the summer months lol. Everything was so green
@GeeNay Oh no question there is a fair amount of luck involved. There’s certainly not much time for anything else when they show up. I don’t know how many of these I’ve snagged but it’s been quite a few.
Yeah everyone who comes to Maine enjoys the scenery. We certainly have some of the best views anywhere! But when you’re from a place…sometimes the grass looks greener on the other side too. I could go for traveling and seeing different places.
/sad trombone
@Ignorant no…for real? My heartfelt condolences, its too soon.
What say you @whistlingwilly?
@cengland0 could also be added here as I suspect we may have another still potentially undefeated.
@studerc yep
It’s for the best, I can’t keep living the lie of a “perfect streak” with that freebie I was gifted last time.
Good luck to those still standing!
@studerc But not all of us gloat about it. Might hurt our future luck
@Ignorant im still here, still on top. Getting anxiety about this now. So its down to @studrec & I & @cengland0
@whistlingwilly My last one made purchase #99 for me. Still wondering if I’ll win a prize with purchase 100. More than 10% of my purchases were Fuko/Fukus. Interesting.
@cengland0 @whistlingwilly
We are the three musketeers.
At my current rate it wouldnt be surprising the next fuko could be purchase 165 to 175.
got here before any sold, but just moved and had to update shipping info. Oh well- it was going to go general delivery to the post office, so it would have been awkward if I got something big. On the plus side, site didn’t crash so I didn’t waste a ton of time. Thanks for that and another year of getting me great deals on things I never knew I wanted.
/buy
@username Oops, sorry. We’re sold out.
@username Nice try.
Happy birthday but that’s not cool I went to purchase it then it asked me if I was a robot and didn’t let me purchase it happy birthday anyways.

So weird … Haven’t logged in since before the 4th of July weekend
Busy having fun, first multi-day absence ever
Accidentally notice it’s a minute until midnight, so, what the heck, refresh at exactly new deal time.
And already sold out.
I swear, there’s something jinxed about my IP address or something
@MehnofLaMehncha
/giphy unlucky
@MehnofLaMehncha You did not refresh at exactly the new deal time unless you have a crappy connection that took a long time to load.
My Macbook Pro and my phone both sync time (via internet and AT&T) to within one second of each other. The domain PC at work is often 15 seconds ahead of both, and my friend’s PC laptop (standalone, uses time dot windows dot com for network time sync) is also often 15 seconds or more different from my phone and Mac.
Don’t know why the diff, but when my exactly at 11PM phone alarm rings, if I wait for the second beep and shift-refresh the browser, I seem to catch the item change at just the right second. I’ve managed to snag fukos/fukus at home on Comcast, at work on SNet, and even traveling with a Karma hotspot (which is not all that fast) just because of the timing.
There, my secret is revealed.
@duodec I think that was sarcasm.
@sammydog01
Didn’t see it that way but who knows? Just trying to help; I have a pretty high success rate with fuk[u,o]s

Happy Birthday Meh!
@fjp999 Is this an unlimited soda can? I’ve been watching it for 9 minutes now and it’s still not empty!
@juststephen There’s a tiny straw that runs up from the cup through the pouring liquid back into the can, attached to a pump, so that way it can appear like it’s always pouring nonstop.
(that’s how the real ones work, anyway)
@juststephen I think there is a tube going from the bottom of the table back up to the soda can!
@curtise sorry, my refresh was old and didn’t see your answer.
@curtise I was trying to be funny/sound stupid but it was mistaken as seriousness again. Sigh.

Done. No fuko. No “bags of crap” after about 20 years. Yes something has gone terribly wrong. Cancel VMP.
I got one, but cancelled the order. After seeing that purchasing it would leave only $8 in my checking account, I decided it would be best not to pick it up, no matter how much I want it.

Annoyed that my calendar event didn’t alert me. I’ve fixed that issue for next year hopefully. Otherwise I congratulate everyone who got one, wish Meh a very happy birthday, and I know I still need to post my photos from my first successful fuko order. I suspect some items might be in common with what other people got but I definitely love one of them in particular and made use of the others.

So glad my Tinder date cancelled on me. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have gotten a Fukobukuro from her like I did from Meh!
Hopefully one of the dumb ideas you have planned is to sell the losers who always miss out on the Fuck You Buckaroo bags an empty meh bag for cost. I need a new grocery bag. Weh.

Yipee. The last time I got “lucky” was a “woot bag of crap”! I wonder if my wife and I will get another day-glow pink dildo? We laughed so hard when we saw it that we’ve wanted another bag since then.
Screw it. This was a wasted day. I was all ready to blow my Kershaw credit load on the face on tonight’s meh offering, but no, instead I left unsatisfied. I won’t be wiping off my damp VMPness on the drapes tonight, Meh.

“What the hell is that?” Herme asks…

An hour later, I’m bragging on Meh.com about FINALLY getting a Fuko.
Are you glad you asked?

What? Someone asked! Didn’t they?
Well, fuck you then. I don’t care, I’m getting a bag full of random shit from Meh.com that somebody else didn’t want, for $5.

I was right there at the rollover - Johnny on the spot, as it were - but maybe just a little too quick. I must have beat the Captcha. It kept warning me to confirm I wasn’t a robot, but there was nothing present to do so.
After a bit of searching I refreshed he page and was finally able to see the check box. But alas, something went terribly wrong, the sellout was already upon us.
Congrats and good luck to those that got them. Looking forward to vicarious reveals.

I’m sorry, Mr. Ives
For those who didn’t get one of these awesome trash bags, don’t give up! Until this one, I’d only missed 10 in a row. Yes it’s frustrating, and sure makes you wonder how someone could have gotten all 11 of them, or even two of 'em?
Don’t junk your VMP, don’t throw the phone, just be happy you still have that $5 in your virtual pocket, and plan to be lucky next time. For one day, you will taste the sweet nectar of victory, and smell the putrid smell of the trash bags, and it will all be awesome, or at least OK.
Have heart, nevah give up!
@beachhead @mediocrebot wanted me to tell you he canceled your order

Happy Birthday Meh! 2 great years of left coast bias.
@cranky1950 I’m in Florida and have gotten two Fucko in a row.
@Felton10 It’s good that you can function at work on 3 hours sleep.
If it weren’t for Kickstarter I wouldn’t have ever been able to get a Fuko. Hoping for the chance again. Right now that would only be on Friday or Saturday nights. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEH!
Happy Birthday! Congrats to all that scored!
@mdrcoast Thanks! It was only my second one.
That went surprisingly well after missing the last few Fuko’s after being called out as a robot on my mobile phone. This time, still on my phone, I only needed to check-mark that I wasn’t a robot, and then click buy. Bingo, loping-loping-party. First time I’ve seen the same word twice in a order number.
Happy Birthday Meh!

I have never yearned for guaranteed garbage before. What the hell is wrong with me. I must have a Fuku, just one little taste.
However, I’m about to move from Washington DC to San Fran… So I’m joining the silver spoon elite Fuku thief’s on the west and can start getting to bed at a decent hour.
Stumbled onto my first bag…Happy Birthday MEH

all you people in the american time zones always get the fuku/os. how about some love for us folks in the UTC+8? fucking cock knockers.

BooHoo. Loyal Follower that I am, I hope you don’t send me another itemized list of all I have spent…
@Mandamm Ditto about the amount I’ve spent.
I would like to thank all of the little people who, finally, helped me achieve my life long goal of landing a fuko, by not already being signed in.
Of course on my birthday missed it last night.
Got one. Have no clue how it went so smoothly. Got last year’s birthday Fuku and it was worth over a grand. Now let’s see what a Fuko looks like.
I hope I get the unicorn with the golden horn. Or the duck- that would be cool too.
I missed it! Aargh! I’m beginning to regret throwing out my dusty floor sweeper full of spider eggs if for no other reason that it was a reminder that I DID have a nice lucky string of fuku luck going until kablammo

Mine shipped… only 2lbs.
@slf3657 Placeholder weight. It may, or may not, update to the actual weight as it gets closer to your house.
@PurplePawprints Awesome!! Not matter what, it’s fun!!
Got my shipping notification today. Yeah, my postie in my small town is going to have fun fitting my Fuko in my mailbox!
Just got shipping notification. 2lbs.
/giphy most unlucky
@tonylegrone Mine’s the same weight, 2lbs. How many $100 bills makes up 2lbs.? Each bill weighs 1 gram. There are 453.59237 grams in a pound so 2lbs is 907.18474 grams. that makes 907ish bills in my 2lb Fuko! So my Fuko is worth about $90,700. Not bad, not bad at all!
/giphy Show me the money
@tonylegrone gonna guess 2lbs is the placeholder
@Nexar sometimes actual weight – last one I got was actually about two pounds , with only a few things inside --nothing special about the items but still fun to receive
@Mehrocco_Mole Based on today’s prices, 2 pounds of gold would be worth $38,749.95 so if your calculations are correct, two pounds of cash would be worth more than 2 pounds of gold.
Amazing. Another thread made up of lurkers that never come out for anything but Fukos.
I try and I try, but this is the thanks I get?
Try a post now and then (besides fukos), people!
@mfladd now and then

eeeek! got a notice that my bag has shipped.
earlier (before I saw the notice) I had a box from Meh that I thought was the bag. I was almost afraid to open it.
it turned out to be my LED light bulbs.
phew!
2lbs is what every box starts out as. My Last Fuko was 2 lbs, the box showed up and it was 18lbs.
I was wondering where my recent Fuko was. I emailed the office yesterday and 30 seconds later I go an email from meh saying my order shipped!!!
On a separate issue, my light bulbs are lost in Pennsylvania somewhere…
still no shipping info
Very Meh bag. No garbage. Included:
Meh bag
Dr. Seuss pop-up book - Happy Birthday to You
Precious Moments “God Loveth A Cheerful Giver,” from June of 1998
Copper Mule Cup (or at least it looks copper)
I like Irk T-shirt, medium
Like I said, Meh
BUT WAIT…something inside the bag:
A beer cozie with Meh. on it
A Meh. magnet - nope, wrong. Not a magnet. Maybe a Meh. sticker? Yes, a Meh. sticker.
AND black sunglasses with purple (Barney?) temples and Meh. printed on the temples.
Wow, what a haul! Er, I mean, what Meh.
^^^Moved to the second birthday thread^^^
@pooflady - Oh, good idea. Here it is.
Still no shipping info
Me either!
@un0 I think only Bezos has enough pull to get shippers to do anything on Sundays.
Have patience and faith in the Fuko gods. May they not poop in our boxes as badly as they poop in others.
@un0 ditto
@un0 got my shipping info today
@HemlockTea received mine as well. However it arrived at fedex and after a weigh in its only 2lb 0.91kg
Usually 2lbs is a placeholder but since it’s arrived at a fedex location 2lbs should be my final weight…
Oh well, I’m sure it’s 2lbs of awesomeness
My BoC from “that other site” is 4lbs and should be here tomorrow
Same here – hoping against hope for roomba so it can I can “clean” up literally and figuratively too–love the anticipation well not really but hey it’s "meh"nificent ( think magnificent ) waiting and waiting and waiting some more –
So in honor of meh I think this is appropriate -
Meh what can I do, meh I live to get fukos from you. The wait seems long I know that’s true but we couldn’t be fuko’ed without being med’d by you. Waiting seems cruel and leaves some of us blue but meh oh meh we look forward to you.
Today I ponder what will my fuko box bring, perhaps a Drone perhaps a swing ( well that would be interesting). What is sure is that it will be a box of several thing(s). Could be speaker docks or just speakers ,does that "sound " right too? Possibly a chrome book so we could "compute"with you. Meh socks , meh bags, meh aprons and even bags of Texas air I’ve gotten from you. I’m excited yet concerned at the same time too.
Meh I say meh what can I do , meh oh me we can’t get fukos without you. So we will wait and ponder our fate be it early fukos or be they late.We will wish and dream for gifts from you Meh Oh meh we can’t wait to hear from you-- (well meh be not:).)
Still no shipping info here either
The power of the post, three minutes after posting no joy, shipping info shows up. . . whoopee! (placeholder two pounds)
I now have a shipping / tracking number BUT it only weighs 2 lbs…hoping that’s not the actual weight as last one was the 2 lb. weight listed …
Place holder two pound package is now 4.7 pounds, gained 2.7 pounds between Carrollton and Houston
3.2 lbs… I’m assuming that means I don’t get a speaker dock Savoring the anticipation is all well and good, but FedEx has only managed to move it about 20 miles in the past 20 hours. Only 218 miles to go…
Yay! Mine came today!
It contained:
Some good, some meh, some wtf…what else could you ask for?
Mine came today! It is awesome:
-Bag with coozie, PURPLE glasses, and sticker.

Arrived today:
The obligatory Meh bag with Meh Coozie, Meh sunglasses and a Meh sticker; a Futurama tin sign; a bag of temporary tattoos, a rechargeable floating BlueTooth Banana Boat pool speaker, an XL black tee shirt with a “V” inside a shield outline (significance??) and a 3’x5’ Amehrican flag. (and 10 bags of Texas air)

Here’s what I received. I don’t think I’ll rush to get another one. Still, it was fun. Sort of.
Nice bag! I shave everyday with it. $110.00 on Amazon… $5.00 from MEH
