I originally posted in the shipping thread. Did not see reveal thread had already been started. Started as everyone else at 2.2lbs and ended up being 6lbs. Was supposed to be here Tuesday but came early and got here today. Mrs 2.2 placeholder is now up to 7.9lb is still on track to get here Tuesday.
1 Sony Wireless Headphones. (MDR-RF985RK)
1 Pook-A-Looz Cheshire Cat spinning toy
1 Ertl (6654) 1995 Corvette Model Yellow.
1 Coffee Mug from the TV Show "The Office"
1 Meh Bag
1 Meh Hockey Puck (Soft) maybe a stress toy sorta thing?
I received:
Fuko bag. Yay
Who playing cards. OK
Meh puck. OK
Vvs tape on easing hands. Ha!
Phone case for something. Meh
9 inch filthy tablet that won’t boot. Sometimes it shows the haier logo, but seems to be getting worse. So a fairly crappy paper weight. I would have been quite pleased had it worked, but no.
@D_a_v_e I got one of those in the last Fuku. Charge it up (it takes forever but the charger that came with it seems to work the fastest). Once charged, hold the volume up button for about 10 seconds. It’ll go into the boot menu. Do a restoration on it and you’ll be good to go. It’s not the best tablet in the world, but it works for my kids to use here and there.
I had missed the meh sticker in the bag. When I saw other posts it made me look and it was there! Yay!
I like the puck, not sure why but I do.
The tablet does seem to be coming to life. After charging, a factory reset, cache clearing, and software update it may just work out for the kids.
I hope there wasn’t any biohazardous substance on it, but it’s reasonably clean now.
They should have send a VCR so I could play the tape.
Just got the notice of 19 lbs of goodness delivered this morning - something to look forward to when I can get to the office and check the contents - woohoo!
1 18 inch square cardboard box
6 bags of Texas gaseous sustenance (1 partially deflated)
1 red Fuko bag
1 Meh foam puck
1 Meh sticker
1 Miller Lite trucker hat (new)
1 The Monkeys at Home children’s imagination playset (made in 1986)
1 Elvis Blue Hawaii tin drink serving tray (AWESOME)
1 6-quart refurbished CrockPot with removable “HeatSaver” stoneware crock (@MrsPavlov says it appears brand new - she took it home this morning and she’s already using it for dinner tonight)
That’s a bag, squishy disc (yay!), sticker (yay!), Star Wars ruler (put in at an angle because the box was less than a foot across), steak knife set, weird tiny Barbie shoe box with bonus pink purse inside, and the best part:
Received mine after a meh record- 2 day shipping.
Meh bag
Meh puck
Meh sticker
Eragon playing cards
Emergency stop button
Easy Eggwich
Dell Digital TV Receiver- which if anyone knows how to make this work on a mac, so far I’ve failed.
Mine came today. Barbie slippers, audio technica earbuds, animal shower curtain hooks, Napoleon Dynamite photo album, meh bag, sticker and hockey puck, Blow up flamingo and duck.
Meh bag
Meh puck
Meh sticker
Barbie Clutch with Gloves
Happy Birthday Silicone Chocolate Mould
Ice Cream Kit for ice cream makers (maker not included)
RCA DAA730R 7" Android 4.1. Tablet with TV Tuner (seems to be working fine and like new condition)
@excarnate I searched for some time and found no updates, also the built in updater fails when it tries to lookup the server name.
Some mentioned they rooted their rca tablets (not necessarily this model) using pdanet… but I didn’t dig much deeper.
I live too far out for tv signals but I have stored mine in a FINE HIGH QUALITY BUILT NY NEOPRENE FLOWER PRINT CASE and will test tv function when I am in town… the upside it doesn’t freeze when scanning, but it finds nothing out here in the boonies.
So I got in town and picked up a couple stations… so it does work as a portable tv… it looked ok. it doesn’t seem to have much range with that tiny antenna… will try again when on the other side of town to see if I get any big stations (these seemed to be a couple smaller stations).
I still have found nothing about any updates or any prebuilt roms for it… anyone else have any luck?
@thismyusername I finally got close to the city to try the tuner, the EPG and ended up with 4 channels.
Have not found any other Roms or updates either. Virtually no mention of this tablet anywhere aside from few places that are selling/sold it.
@thekenya You might need to hold the volume up button then hold power when you try to turn it on, that will get you into restore mode and you can run the factory reset from there.
@turk911 Is there a way to attach an antenna? I used an indoor one and even though I was 15-20 miles from the stations I got all the over the air ones. Where I live now (cement and steel building where I face north and all stations are south of me) I can’t get anything with an indoor antenna (but the people facing south can).
@CozzaFrenzy Gosh those foam dart guns have been sent out on multiple Fukus and fukos. They must have even more of them than the seizure glasses. They do hurt, by the way, when someone shoots them at you at close range…
There’s hope for us all!
FedEx showed my 2.2 lb box was due to arrive Friday, but instead I happened upon a much heavier box on my new apartment doorstep tonight!
The loot:
Mr. Coffee 10 cup Thermal coffee maker!? (I gave it to my kindly neighbors who invited me over to their 3 year old’s birthday party shortly upon moving into my new digs. Go go positive neighbor karma and I might’ve made them into new loyal Mehtizens!)
Personal Hygiene Refresher/Portable Bidet
Box full of Texas air
Blue/green hammock
Plastic Pepsi-Cola plate
Meh foam hockey puck, freshly-retrieved from a kitten’s mouth
Trademark Meh grocery bag
Kitty not included in box, but likes box very much
My Fuko finally arrived today. Originally showed 2.2 lbs via tracking, then changed to a whopping 6 lbs. My biggest haul to date:
Obligatory Texas air (yum); Designer car sun shade (animal print - useful!); Napoleon dynamite photo book (awesome!); captain jack army cap pistol (I won’t take this with me on the plane); meh hockey puck and sticker (double awesome!); meh bag (did not make it into the photo, lame I know…) plus a Bem wireless Bluetooth Duo stereo system (actually works well after about 15 minutes of fussing)!!
@bettynugs I got that BEM blue tooth in my last Fuko but one of the speakers has a really annoying buzzing sound. does yours? Do you know anyway to fix this?
@lennon818 No, mine does not make any annoying sounds (other than a few bad 80’s songs that somehow find their way into the musical rotation). BUT, with 3 different potential Bluetooth failure points and a cheaply-made plasticy base controlling all the action, I don’t excpect this thing to last very long. Have you tried contacting Bem via email? I’ve had good luck with other manufacturers using that path.
Mine arrived today. Included with the obligatory Texas air were a bag, a flintlock-style cap gun, the Fuku bag which I shall carry proudly to the market, a pair of Piranha Eyewear shades (tortoise shell, very nice), and a returned Martian Notifier smartwatch (black / black), which is currently charging and we’ll see how / if it works. Very cool. I’m a happy camper, in the “let’s see if these new toys can help to fill the void in my life” kind of way.
First fuku here, bags of Texas air, cardboard box, meh bag, sticker, and hockey puck, inflatable duck beer holder, inflatable palm tree beer holder, tan and pink Paul Frank bag with a monkey face on it, aprons and attitude wine glass, and a uniden app cam 23
It’s finally here! It didn’t contain anything particularly breathtaking, but I am sure some of you will envy a pair of things I got!
4 bags of delicious Texas air.
1 pack of Summer study flash cards (Summer is over meh! What am I supposed to do with these?!?)
1 24oz blue Bubba HERO bottle
1 Futurama collectible tin sign
1 meh bag
1 meh puck
1 meh sticker (slightly crumpled)
1 inflatable turkey leg
1 preciously envied pair of chick slippers
Floaty Palm trees x2, USB Hubman, Novice Triangle Instrument (\m/>.<\m/), Outback Steakout bobblehead (15 year anniversary in 2003!), Meh sticker, puck, bag!
Not even Texas air… Phooey!
Oh boy! I’m far from feeling “Meh” about this Fuku that I was able to snag.
1 Juicer and Sorbet maker (Any time a Meh employee comes through my city, hit me up for some free juice! Sorbet is for me only…)
1 Back scratcher?
1 DESIGNER window shade!
2 Cup holder floaties.
1 Meh stress puck.
1 Meh vinyl sticker!
@Tiverty the arch stick is a personal back massager. I saw some people doing Amazon reviews. At first they were confused but then fairly happy with it.
Oh well meh is here…still no roomba :(—
Anyways — here is the reveal in all its meh glory-
2 small bags of Texas air
One Meh sticker
(Another ) plastic yellow 1995 Corvette convertible car
One meh puck with meh face on other side
One meh bag
One pork pig thermometer
One Alien
One HD 1080 p SquareHD camera
Meh oh meh- still worth what I paid but still hoping one day…one day for my elusive wish gift:)
[1]:
![Fuko is Here][1]
1.6 lbs arrived this afternoon (on day earlier than originally scheduled)
1xMeh bag
1xMeh foam puck
1xMeh sticker (already applied to car)
1xpull back soft dart gun
1xNapoleon Dynamite photo book
1xHot Wheels Monster Jam (Aftershock)
1xSpecial K measuring cup
1xPrecious Moments collectors exclusive “God Loveth A Cheerful Giver” June 1998
Toys already claimed by the 6 year old.
To everyone who posts-please give the weight of your Fuku and when you snagged it-Midnight-morning or 4:00 PM-will give those of us still waiting for ours some hope or make us more depressed. So far the lighter the package-the worse the contents are.
@Felton10 Pretty much the best item I’ve seen so far from any of the bags are my pair of chick slippers which weigh nothing. So you can still be very lucky with a light bag.
No reason that I can tell for mine to have come FedEx Home instead of USPS. Contents included:
Meh bag
Meg sticker
Meh squeeze thing
Hot wheels Monster Jam Geave Digger car
Chef Pals Beef Thermometer
Pet Pedometer
Precious Moments 1998 God Loveth a Cheerful Giver figurine
Oh joy! A 18lbs fuko! All the others have been so small, not even breaking 5lbs as far as I recall.
Oh but I should have known. The bigger it is, the more disappointment it holds.
Broken Pepsi plate thing. I actually like Pepsi. So that was disappointing.
A [very smelly] hammock thing. Seriously this thing reeks of chemicals.
Two comedy fly swatters. These might actually get some use.
A douche. Or enema or bidet or whatever. Thanks meh.
The crème de la crème. A coffee maker. I don’t actually drink coffee, but oh the joyous thoughts of making tea!
Well I should’ve known better when I saw the bright red “RT” scrawled on the side. I presumed it stood for return, but I had gotten return items before and they were pristine.
Oh boy, but not this coffee maker.
I’m not entirely certain meh didn’t violate some bio-hazards/weapons law by sending this to me.
It is absolutely filthy. Hand grease all over it. Someone made an attempt at cleaning it, but instead it just ended up looking like streaked handprints. He filter compartment is dirty. Somewhat interestingly the water tank is nearly pristine. Guess the previous owners must’ve had really soft water. Oh and the pot, by god the pot. It looks as though a small rodent died inside of it and its fluids pooled at the bottom of it.
The area holding the pot is dusty and smacked up as well.
Well it’s going straight in the trash.
This also leaves me with another troubling thought. Is the enema pump used as well?
Got mine a couple days early. Snagged at 11 pm CST. Weight = 19lbs
• Obligatory Meh bag, puck and sticker
• 36" horse (new)
• My Little Pony “Magic Friendship Songs” book - still in shrink wrap
• Elvis left handed cigarette tray
• Neato Botvac 65
Unfortunately the botvac is a return from Newegg. It charges but comes up with a “stick fan error.” This very much reminds me of the BOC I got in 2008 or 9 in which I received a broken Roomba Scooba. I was able to fix that one. Maybe I can fix this suck-bot too.
10-# morning buy
meh bag
meh sticker
meh puck
wedding clock that plays wedding march as Bride groom dance around
Napoleon photo album
camo pool raft
inflatable princess wand
purse w broken strap
robot shower curtain
What’s with all these inflatable items? Maybe mine will contain an inflatable blond. Now there is something I could use (when my wife is out of the house of course)
@Felton10 I tried a giphy for an elephant threesome and discovered that they do make inflatable animals for sex complete with the appropriate orifices. None of the photos were even safe for here. Horses were especially popular.
/giphy ewwww
It might show some sort of deep problem with my persona, but I think all these Fukos so far look pretty cool. Actually, I wouldn’t even mind a broken tablet - then I could take it apart and not feel like I was wasting any money breaking something.
@darkdragon I got a Trio Stealth 8 MST8-21 tablet that seemed like the only issue was the user had switched it to Spanish. I hard reset and set it back up in English and it was good for a few minutes. Then it was randomly back in Spanish, giving errors about Launcher crashing over and over, and pretty useless without another reset.
If you wanna pay for postage, I’ll gladly fish it out of the trashcan and send it to you.
RCA tablet with TV tuner and pull out antenna! (Still logged into Jonathan’s Google account from December)
Paul Frank monkey purse that my 1 month old daughter might enjoy in a year.
Star Wars ruler.
Resistance Band by Daiso Japan Quality.
Inflatable Turkey Leg.
And Meh standards of bag, puck and sticker.
Package delivered 2 whole days early - can’t wait to get home and open my very light 2.9lb box. It can’t possibly contain anything but Texas air and I refuse to look at any reveals.
Mine just arrived, via USPS. I caught it at midnight, it’s 2.6 lbs, and it has seven items. Meh sticker (car window), meh puck (do these have a secret inside?), meh bag, Krusty the clown keychain, Olive Oyl figurine, soft dart gun, and a NuVision HD TM785M3 tablet, kitkat!!! Looks new, all parts in the box, no fingerprints on screen. Charging now. Overall it’s classic meh. The cat has claimed the bag.
@OldCatLady Note: the NuVision was registered to somebody named Jose, who spoke Spanish, and its battery is dead, dead, dead, after 24 hours charging. Works okay when plugged in; I’ll do a factory reset and use it for a music player.
@OldCatLady I think I bought one of those NuVision tablets at sam’s club. I ended up taking it back because the sound was terrible. It was not capable of playing headphones loud enough for my kids to watch a movie in the car on the way to grandma’s. Good luck.
5lb box, purchased in the 38 seconds it was available at 8am.
1x Meh sticker
1x Meh puck
1x Meh Bag
1x 4 pack Way Out West figures (all pissed off Native Americans.)
1x inflatable monkey
1x USB Hubman
1x Motorcycle cup holder (which will likely find itself attached to my lawn mower)
1x 38.2 feet of neon green hybrid tape rope LED light. Which I blinded myself and the cat with because we didn’t expect it to work.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a shitty Fuku, everything was immediately thrown into the garbage after I took the picture.
1-red meh bag
1-small black meh apron
1-deck of playing cards
1-cheap plastic phone case for droid razer
1-opened oriental trading 3d puzzle cube cardboard pieces
Next time I think I’ll wipe my ass with a $10 bill just for better enjoyment
@Ignorant no not my first order with meh, I had gotten a amazon gift card so I signed in with amazon to see if I could use that, and it seems to have given me a new account by signing in with amazon, this was my 3rd or 4th fuko/fuku (I believe 4), had valentines, aprils fools day, and one other I believe before that.
@sammydog01 I’ve been cleaning out stuff at Mom’s and I found the apron she ordered. (I’ve got one.) She never got to wear hers… I’d send it to you if you’d like. What’s your email?
@APDWaldo6 You aren’t alone. While I didn’t get in on this bag, I’ve scored maybe 3 or 4 and basically threw the contents away. I’ve never ever gotten any of the good stuff.
Whatever glass items have always been broken. The couple if electronic items I received were returns that were dead or missing parts that I’d have to spend almost enough to buy the item new. The toy junk i received was just that - junk. My nephew or the kids on the block wouldn’t even play with…lol
Anymore, when I’m lucky enough to score a bag I just look at it as scoring a cute red $5 reusable bag.
Here’s mine. I bought mine at midnight and it was listed as 2.6 lbs.
1 x Red meh bag/sticker/foam puck combo
1 x Pull back soft dart gun
1 x J Lab 7 Tablet (it boots, holds charge, connects to internet)
2 x Gojo headsets (still in bags, so it’s easier to throw in the trash this time).
1 x Mr. and Mrs. Who? Playing Cards ( http://www.kardify.com/2013/03/mr-and-mrs-who-playing-cards.html )
Overall, this one was not terrible. The tablet had a post-it note attached that said “BEST II” but I have received the same tablet in a past fuko and can confirm that it is actually the WORST. So, “best of the worst” is pretty on brand for meh.
The sticker on the bag says “Used Good” and the plastic’s not the gross shade of yellow you usually see. Game pad looks all right too. Score!
To be honest, hunting down old cartridges isn’t really my idea of a good time, and the emulators on my TV thingies don’t need an HDMI upgrade to look good.
Maybe I can help a collector out here with a trade (but I’m even less sure what to do with a novice triangle instrument).
@trisk FYI the NES doesn’t really turn yellow unless it’s stored in the sun or something else untoward, the SNES is the one that does that due to lower quality plastic being adopted in later models and/or the flame retardant chemical treatment they received at one point. It does look like a rather nice unit that someone packaged carefully!
So I got the bag with sticker and stress puck and 3 random objects.
PB spreader, I know there is some running joke on this, not sure why but my kid thinks this one is swell.

Haier open box tablet. Doesn’t seem to hold a charge. If I unplug it after a few hours of charging it turns off. Not sure what I can use it for yet since it needs to be plugged in at all times…
@StrangerDanger I wasn’t very happy with mine at first. Charge it using the wall charger overnight. Do a factory reset, than wipe the caches. Mine seems fine enough for the kids now.
/giphy not bad
Dirty used coffeemaker
Little Miss Sunshine Rug
Flyswatter
Pepsi plate
Meh bag, slicker and puck
15lbs, 8am purchase. Doesn’t add proof that heavy packages are better. I would have loved the Napolean Dynamite photo album or waste basket. Still a fun experience for $5.
Delivered as promised. This was a 6.1 pounder, ordered right at the stroke of midnight EST. My 3rd fuku/o (My first was the anniversary fuku and an oversell with medical splint roll in there so hard to top that).
The contents:
Meh bag, inside was the meh sticker and puck (and really, I wanted that puck bad for some reason).
Broke-ass Haier tablet (doesn’t seem to be charging), previously seen on meh for $33
2 bluetooth headsets (untested, will add to my bluetooth headset pile)
Butt water squirter (also untested and will remain so for all eternity)
Memphis Belle trashcan
Black witch Halloween costume dress (timely)
My Little Pony friendship songs book
Pack of portable tissues with a cute puppy on them
Too much Texas air to count
Thank you Meh. You can’t put a price on the joy of opening a mystery box IMHO. But $5 seems about right and I’ll be back for the next one if I’m unlucky enough to nab one.
@canprobablyfix I’ll try booting it when it has a charge tomorrow. The screen didn’t even have fingerprints when I took it out of the bag in the box, so I’m hopeful.
@OldCatLady I don’t see any signs of life after around 8 hours. Nothing lights up (not even the little power indicator dot) when I plug into the wall or usb to a wall charger or PC. Looks like this one may really be dead? Any other ideas?
@bdp After charging for 24 hours, my NuVision will boot if it’s plugged in, but the battery is completely dead. It was registered to a Spanish speaker, so I will factory reset. I may physically replace the battery. There are some guides on YouTube and ifixit. I do like dinking with hardware, as long as my job isn’t on the line.
@bdp After I replaced the microUSB/USB cable with a good one from my stash, it’s charging enthusiastically. I reset it and it’s updated, so I’m much happier. Quick, easy fix, and I didn’t have to call tech support to have them say ‘Did you try turning it off and then on again?’ I d/l the manual too.
@OldCatLady thanks for not giving up on me! Mine needed a charge via a different use cable and booted. Locked to the prior owner so I flashed the firmware and set it up. Fun little toy. Reminds me of the old nooks. Now to see if there are custom firmwares!
1-Chef Pals Pork Thermometer
1-shot glass
1-Meh Hockey Puck
1-Meh Sticker
1-Soft Dart Gun
And 1-Hello Kitty Android Tablet. It has the base for the charger to plug into the wall but no USB cable to charge it. Thankfully I have other Micro USB cables. It charged quickly and actually works. I had to clear off the photos that some little kid took of their couch but everything seems to work with it. Not really sure what I am going to do with it though…
My 1.9 lb box of fuko from the midnight offering arrived today instead of Saturday and instead of Monday.
1- Meh fuko bag
1- Meh sticker
1- Meh hockey puck
1- Spiderman v Green Goblin battle toy (squeeze handle for battle action!)
1- pet grooming VHS tape
1- 12-hour indoor mechanical timer
1- GoJo adjustable headset
1- Aliens alien queen 5-function quartz watch, battery included! (Appears to have been manufactured in 1993!)
Just received my wonderful 2.9lb of meh. For 2.9lb, I actually feel like I did pretty solid.
meh. bag
meh. puck
Kindle Fire slim cover
Sweet yellow corvette convertible.
Audio Technica earbuds with mic
Rocky Mountain Knife (includes: knife, bandage, sewing needle, safety pin, 2 fish hooks, 2 fishing weights, fishing line, fire starter, and matches ALL INSIDE THE HILT OF THE KNIFE OMGOMG
Desk chair
Inflatable superstar microphone, for singing the meh. blues.
![2.1 pounds of mehfuko arrived today! As you can see, I got:
a meh bag!
a meh puck!
a meh football!
a pair of meh socks!
a burger meh lord of the rings toy (gandoph…re:2001)!
a meh litter sheet for pets!
and a garmin activity watch, circa 2011!!
So, other than the socks, a total meh! production!!!
Forget everything I said about crappier things coming in small packages. Got mine today. (No pics-don’t know how to do that). Got a Stealth 7" internet tablet which actually appears to work (is charging and can turn it on), a soft dart gun, an angry birds dog toy and A Dick Tracy guide to collectibles. Plus the red bag and Texas air.
I am satisfied plus it gives me the right to hopefully order another one with no complains from the wifey.
Mine arrived today after thinking I got duped out of one of the 8 am ones that actually went through. First fuko!
Around 9 bags of Texas air, already popped by the kids so who knows?
Meh bag, puck, and sticker
Very plastic “Shaving Set”
Octopus shaped ice try mould
Barbie Shoes Hinged Box with Purse set
Vicks Pediatric GermFree Cool Moisture Humidifier
After reading comments I had to double check on the humidifier, and it does look brand new. It’s got some expired coupons from 2014, but otherwise it’s still in an original bag with tape on inside parts from what I can tell. A pretty great deal if it does indeed work, as our other humidifier probably has a bunch of buildup in it from last year.
@dcNate I got the same humidifier on my first fuko couple of months ago. Box was beat up, but humidifier looked new and unused like yours. My daughter has been trying to sell it on e-bay with no takers so far.
@MehsterSplinter The LED Magnetic Utility light is pretty dope. That magnet is STRONG, fam. USB Hubman is coming with me to work because you can never have too many hubs, man. The Fuku Bag is going to discretely hide my assortment of beers next day-drinking opportunity… What a conversation piece.
@MehsterSplinter FYI - I ordered those lights before and broke one on first button push. Took the light apart and saw that the button is on the end of the circuit board with no support underneath. So when you push it you’re bending the board or snapping it in my case. I glued an eraser under the ones i didn’t break and they work fine so far.
Awesomesauce, Meh. Not only am I a comic nerd so the Wonder Woman photo book isn’t 100% out of character, but the lunchbox will at least physically match my Fallout 3 lunchbox on a display shelf. Do I need to read a book or watch a movie now, though? Is it good? Does it suck?
The Meh sticker is probably going on my Jeep.
The Ice Cream Cone is probably the weakest item, and will be given to a lactose intolerant relative. She’s gonna be mad.
The speakers, though? Daaaaamn, these sound nice. Probably going in a laptop travel bag on trips.
@TellarHK They sold those speakers a long while back. I bought some for a family member preset and they really like them although they complain the cord is a bit short.
Bag, sticker, puck and a hint of air.
Bear shower hooks.
ET phone home thing.
HoMedics memory foam pillow.
A toxic-smelling blow up happy pickle! Had do use a compressor to inflate.
The bag is always great and I’ll give the pillow a try. Always fun. Thanks meh!
Hello Kitty foam stickers (someone at work is getting these, she’s our resident Hello Kitty fan)
Witch costume (Someone will want it)
Star Wars ruler
Meh sticker
Meh puck (I was pucked by Meh)
Fuko bag
Meh Puckett (spongy)
2.Red Meh Bag (awesome sauce)
Meh sticker (meh-tastic)
4.Nickolodeon lunch bag ( about 25 years after I would have been ecstatic to have it)
5.Miller Lite hat.( all I need is a pack of Newport and some butt crack)
6.Outback bobble head ( damn onions)
7.Elvis tin ( Thank you. Thank you very much. Uh huh.)
Refurbished Mr.Coffee. ( Oh come on at least wipe the outside off of the darn thing. Geez.)
Oh and some nice Texas air. Have to say my first Fukubukuro was…meh. http://imgur.com/yPFGegB
Came a day early! 11 lbs. Ordered at midnight.
1.) 7 bags of Carrollton air
2.) Meh bag
3.) Meh sticker!
4.) Meh stress puck.
5.) Kellogg’s Special K measuring cup
6.) Little Miss Sunshine rug.
7.) A plastic loaf of bread that my daughter claimed.
and…
8.) An iRobot Braava 375t mopping robot that should work in conjunction with the Neato Botvac I won previously from Meh! Maybe I’ll get a robot wife next time to pick up before the robot army cleans the floors!!
@wildcat Update: The charging port on the tablet was not glued in place and the charger dislodged the port and pushed it far up into the tablet. I can’t charge it therefore it is garbage. Thanks Meh!
@RiotDemon I am attempting to do just that! That said, it appears to be glued together with no obvious way to gently take it apart. It is likely going to come apart only.to never be put back together again.
@wildcat I was able to open mine cause I had the same exact issue. Try flexing the tablet by bending it a little so a corner or edge pops up and stick a guitar pick in there to open it up. Mine’s gonna take some mad soldering skills to get it back on there though since my entire port came off the PCB.
@wildcat Ok, well it’s time to crack it open this week. First I tried to see if RCA would support it because it appears to be new. After being redirected 4 times, two of the numbers not even being real support desks, by various RCA support desks, it appears RCA is embarrassed to claim this as their own.
Mine came yesterday, but I just got around to taking the picture because I’m lazy.
I got dog poop. No, really (2.8 lbs):
Contents:
Two orange plastic dog poops
Star Wars Episode I pencil case
Yellow plastic model C5 Corvette
Meh Sticker
Meh Foam Puck
Fuko Red Bag
Toshiba Chromebook 2
Yea, I lucked out with this Fuko! The Chromebook is fully functional; it has a small 1" crack on the screen but is otherwise good to go. I’m writing this post on it now, in fact. Best Fuko/BOC I’ve ever received!
@djslack Sadly right handed. I considered selling it on ebay as the left handed banana slicer, but it comes with a stern warning and I didn’t want them to “use it for not used to be” and be held liable for the injuries
Kudos to whomever thought of using the promotional hockey puck stress “balls” for printing meh faces. I reckon that was loads cheaper than requesting something custom to use. Well done. I will be taking mine to the office to see if there are any meh users lurking there.
Win?:
3 pack of frs/weather radios with charging dock. Looks returned so maybe not a win.
Meh:
Eragon lunchbox
Grand Tour shower curtain
Lose:
Zero Meh swag. No bag, no puck, no sticker.
Not Pictured:
6x Texas Air
Still the most fun you can have for five bucks, at least in the first world. Thanks, Meh!
@sammydog01 Disappointment is the lot of the Fuko buyer; I don’t think they owe me anything. And I have been very lucky with other offerings, so i’m way ahead overall. I have a few of the bags on hand so I’m not bagless. The stress puck meh face is new, so that’s a downer. And I’d always like more stickers. But there will be other Fukos to try for more. So I think I’ll accept my fate on this one.
@Yoda_Daenerys I’ve been considering one of those portable shower thingies for camping & summertime sporting events, but not for $50 Amazon price nor even on $30 Woot.
/giphy jelli
@compunaut i can’t recall how much they went for here, but honestly, i don’t think it was one of the items that tempted me, even though most do, even with lack of need…
Texas bag o’ air
Meh Bag
Meh Sticker
Meh Puck
A Krusty the Clown keychain (fitting!)
A PullBack Soft Dart Gun (with three(3) darts)
A Hello Kitty tablet -
The Hello Kitty tablet seems to work just fine, but it’s slightly dirty (the screen protector is still on it though). Booting the device up reveals that the system was set in Espanol, and that there is a left-over g-mail account login still on it. (I’ll reset the system before I connect it to my home network).
…and a 2Pac shotglass, with a likeness of 2Pac on the bottom
Thanks Meh!
Weird little Popeye Picture frame thing (I think?)
Playing cards that say “Who?” on sleeve but otherwise seem normal
Scratched up Haier android tablet
The android tablet was actually a sweet pull, I’m considering replacing my 7" Nexus that currently provides the interface to my kegbot. The display is larger but crappier, camera also is meh, but bigger display!
Mine Meh fuku arrived today. Picture ain’t possible, but I got
1 fuku bag
1 meh. sticker
1 meh puck (can’t tell if it’s a good puck yet)
1 Star Wars ruler
1 Who decka cardz
1 gun (not real, we think)
1 Meep x2 tablet for kiddos
Pkg online said 3.3 pounds, but I think it was actually heavier (Meep). The ruler & Meep will be presents, but the reviews of the Meep on Amazon are enough of a caution that I’m passing it on to my great niece’s parents saying that they may want to check it out first themselves. (Maddy has access to a Kindle, so this would be mainly for games & fun.) And I think fun it will be.
My midnight Fuko arrived today, weighing the stated 3.3 pounds, despite evidence that it had been opened and re-taped. At first I was dejected that it arrived too late for my birthday, but upon opening it, I gave thanks to the Smartpost Gods for the delay. Next stop – Disappointmentville: Population - Me.
Eragon lunch box (not a Supernatural box as I first thought)
Who? playing cards (not Doctor Who)
NuVision tablet (refurbished, not currently working)
6 deflated bags of Texas air (which explains the next item)
1 broken wine glass, which sharded all over the box, my car and my apartment
1 glass-encrusted Meh bag with Meh sticker and Meh puck
My 4.6 lb./4pm Fuko arrived a day early. The thrill of anticipation quickly turned to disappointment at the reveal.
Meh items: bag/puck/sticker (I actually love all of these.)
Six-pack of light bulbs (Have no use for)
Star Wars ruler and figurine (Not a SW fan, would have LOVED anything Alien though.)
Inflatable owl (Was happy until I inflated it and saw how hideous it was.)
Thanks for the roller coaster ride, Meh! Will happily await for the next chance to buy a ticket.
My 2.6-pound fuko arrived this afternoon. I bought it at midnight, because the thought of a 7 o’clock in the morning confuses and frightens me.
Red Fuko bag, meh sticker, and squishy puckman
Daiso potato cutter
Chef Pals cockle-doodle-doodling chicken thermometer
iWorld mobile USB battery pack (sealed!)
Wonder Woman photo book (empty!)
three-foot inflatable moustache!
The extra battery pack will come in handy; I use those Duracell jobbies a lot more than I thought I would. Oh, and thanks for reminding me not to smoke, meh. That moustache was an exercise in perseverance.
• Red Fuko bag
• Meh squishy hockey puck
• Meh sticker
• PB ‘n’ J spreader
• Package Oriental Trading 3-D puzzle cube
• 2PAC shot glass (why was this even made?)
• New/pre-refurbished RCA 7” Tablet PC with High Definition TV
• Several bags of Texas air (not pictured)
Well, I’ve been wanting a TV and a tablet. Looks like I scored a 2 in 1.
“Framed Art” from KMart: LSD picture of the scarecrow from Wizard of Oz.
Dollar Store style Suction-Cup Dart Gun.
9" Haier tablet; needed charging. Covered in fingerprints and has someone else’s email, pictures, and accounts all still saved on it. Last emails came in in October 2015, but it’s still pretty creepy that I have access to her stuff. I guess these got RMA’d and… question-marks as to how meh got them?
@finalremix We now have their secret for all the broken crap - meh probably runs a garbage truck electronic gadget disposal business and we are the dump. Smart though - they get paid twice - once to take the broken crap and once for us to take it LOL. So @shawn how close is that guess?
@shawn All the time? Of course not. You need to make them “special by their rarity” to make us flock to your site and then buy the “lottery ticket” where we might get one that has something in it other than broken stuff and dollar store items (grin)…
a rca 7in television with android tablet (DAA730R) (used but working I think it still has the scratch protector but it has some random gmail account and a photo)
fuko bag
meh sticker (finally)
and a meh foam puck (joy)
THANKS MEH!
(according to amazon the barbie item is
"Part of the Barbie Porcelain Hinged Box Collectors series" lol)
Got mine yesterday. It was an 8am Fuko, so it’s not a real Fuko. I got:
small cardboard box
infant suffocation device
Meh swag: bag, puck, sticker
Toy Story shower curtain hooks
unknown Star Wars figurine (I’m guessing since it has “ 1998 Lucasfilm Ltd” on the bottom)
Mofie power pack with a disturbing bulge in the middle and a sticker that reads “won’t hold charge” … not sure how to disassemble to replace battery
sweet inflatable guitar! Unfortunately I just threw away a broken inflation pump a few days ago. I may have to put it to my lips, like some kind of animal.
I AM LORD MEH! I WILL CONQUER THE GALAXY!! Or at least I will, once I get something for this awful heartburn. Oy!
Got my fuku! Fuku bag, meh sticker, meh puck, magnifying glass, Arwen toy from Burger King, infatable Ice Cream Cone, Mediocore Socks (!), and a refurb pair of Power Beats by Dre.
Red Bag
Meh sticker
Meh stress puck
Plastic bread looking thingy
Buzz light year spinny thing. (Weird because the gif selected for the shipping thread message when my package gained a pound included woody.)
Piranha sunglasses
Nabi Square HD camera set.
Mine was lackluster as well. Still funny, but meh. There was a Hello Kitty used tablet with boogers on it or something, but my son can’t get past the lock code and I need to reset it. Anyone have any ideas? Also I washed off the boogers. Or whatever.
@SHOVAR Have to do a hard reset on it.
Power it off, then press and hold the power and volume up buttons for a few seconds.
It should bring up the reset menu, use the volume buttons to scroll up/down and power to select. Select “wipe data/factory reset”. It will ask you to confirm, press power button to confirm and continue. “Then select reboot system now”
Midnight deal 13.1 lbs
Plastic Hamburger Bun top
Memphis Belle Trash Can
Pokemon Wall Graffix
Squatty Potty! Girlfriend has been asking for one of these, how the heck to they know, do they use spies?
Belding Large Duffel Bag - Pretty nice can certainly use this or donate to college student nephew
That awesome moment when your Fuko shows out for delivery a day early, then the postman comes and brings you nada. Even jokes to you about, “what, no packages today?!” and you’re all THE HECK YOU SAY?! grrr
Hi everyone, this is actually my first post here. Managed to snag a Fuko and it arrived yesterday. I got:
Adult witch costume dress
Toy shaving set
3 walkie talkies (defective item label says they’re staticky and don’t have the advertised 3-5 mile range, but I live in a city anyway)
Samsung bluetooth earpiece (box damaged, but it turns on)
Napoleon Dynamite wastebasket
Black Labrador coffee mug
TWO Meh pucks
Meh sticker
Fuko bag
Overall, pretty good! I’ll probably give the walkie-talkies to my parents because they like camping and going to festivals so they’ll probably get some use out of them. Mainly I’m just curious how Meh knew that I used to do a killer Napoleon Dynamite impression…
@Neghtasro Sometimes the fuko items are way, way past creepy. I’d say you got off easy. It could have been a five foot tall devil drum or an enormous ceramic rooster. Or it could have been metal letters that spell ‘IRK’, 50" wide and 6" deep. Keep trying, it gets crazier.
ETA was today - Friday Sept 30th for my Midnight fuko.
Meh/FedEx/USPS 3lbs on Wed at 9:21am with Meh fuko Bag, Sticker and Stress Puck!
GoJo Headset.
WHO? playing cards.
Pink iPhone 5 case.
“trio” STEALTH G2 8" Android tablet - only a few finger prints and seems to work fine. Photo taken with the little thing. trio doesnt show a G2 on site so I feel pretty special!
@fjp999 I also got a Stealth Trio Tablet (7" hence probably older-2012). Mine had fingerprints and someones e-mail in it, but works. Amazon selling it got $ 84 with 46% giving it a poor rating. But for $5-its a bargain.
@blkxltng Here’s what I got, take your pick. Barbie slippers, audio technica earbuds, animal shower curtain hooks, Napoleon Dynamite photo album, meh bag, sticker and hockey puck, Blow up flamingo and duck.
@genericcat That polka dot lady… what’s up with the metal screw thing coming out of her hat? Is she a hanging pendant light bulb, or a candle holder, or…?
@Bandrik No idea what it is. I was hoping someone would see it and tell me. It does have a silver screw top which looks rather lamp-like but there aren’t any other parts, and the bottom is solid (no place to thread a cord through.) So, candle holder is the best guess so far.
0800 grab. Initial weight 2.2 and updated to 23.1 #.
The contents:
25 Empty bags of what once contained Texas air.
Meh Bag
Meh Puck
Meh Sticker
The Authorized Guide To Dick Tracy Collectibles
Pepsi-Cola Plastic Tray
Wedding Chime Clock
Neato Botvac 65
No complaints here. Vac is a pretty beat up/dirty return dated 8/15./16. Marked “works intermittently” which may work out since I vacuum intermittently.
The postal service decided to hold mine in whatever terrible limbo they keep their packages. I’ll get it soon and report. 3.3 lbs. It’s the first thing I’ve bought from Meh. I expect nothing.
Follow up from my earlier post. I found out why my Fuko box was held back from the delivery route. Apparently it was leaking. LEAKING. What the actual…??
Photos because pics or it didn’t happen:
Sorry Aladdin, Jasmine & Genie, no “whole new world” for you my friends
The rest of the items were mostly dry:
I have no idea what this is supposed to be used for (I have already Google’d it, I’ll pass it along to my husband most likely), but this couldn’t have been more random if it tried…
One Emergency Stop button;
One Aliens Watch, LCD screen looks damaged but son will still think it’s friggin’ awesome and he can’t tell time anyway, so who cares;
One Smart iReach Selfie Stick, daughter will be thrilled
One Meh sticker
One Meh puck
One Meh bag
oh, and
One utterly decimated Disney snow globe
Thanks, Meh from this Kickstarter backer and VIP Fuko-bag snagger.
Well, someone knows I struggle opening boxes, because my box came pre-opened! Although I would never complain about the awesome stuff I got, I am definitely wondering what is missing/taken from the box. With that said…
1 Awesome Meh Bag
1 Incredible meh sticker
1 Amazing hockey puck (this was the one thing I wanted more than anything)
1 American flag mat
1 Inflatable turtle
1 Mohu OTA channel guide thingy
1 Giant Spiderman wall poster
Looks like my friend and his family are going to get a really awesome package from me next week. They are obsessed with turtles, the 7 YO loves Spiderman, and they currently do not have cable.
I got the same box as coffee pot guy above. Exactly. I was super excited at its heft after looking through some of these pictures. I will know better for next time not to do that… if there IS a next time. First Fuko ever!
@DaveInSoCal I’m not gonna lie, there’s a part of me that wants to put a fog machine and spotlight inside. Maybe some omenous music. Just to see who asks questions.
Oooo, my favorite, a(n):
-bag/sticker/puck combo meal
-piranha sunglasses
-alien clock toy thing from 1993*
-“The Office” cup mug, with apparently non-detachable handle
Oh, and this thing, which is apparently some sort of a floor cleaning device. Are you trying to say something about the state of my floors, Meh? Cause, you know, spot on if you are.
So, overall, a good get.
*I love seeing these are the types of things. The journey this junk must’ve taken to make it here intrigues me to no end.
Edit: aww the photos got all turned. I guess just tilt your head a bit.
Texas air (reminds me of Austin. sigh)
A mystery item!
Another mystery item!
A scary clown JUMBO Pez dispenser!
Jumbo sized “Trump” cards.
Is that an RCA DAA730R? Could it be? It could!
And the real prize, the meh fuko bag.
Go bananas!
A monkey purse!
A tablet!
An official Pez back, scary clown edition!
More exclamation points!!!
My son’s birthday is tomorrow, the 1st, and the cards will be his. And the hanging Go Bananas inflatable.
He wants the tablet, but it overheats pretty fast, and the registration is off between audio and video but it works. I’ll try to make it go for him.
No crockpot? Didn’t they know I’d fumble the lid on my old one the day after they shipped this?
Yes, in the bag, the bag I’ll sneak around with until it falls to pieces, was a meh. sticker and the foam hockey puck.
My niece is too old for the purse. Maybe a carrying case for the tablet? A lunch bag for my son?
@excarnate /back/bank/ but I only get one edit. Am I happy? My wife only frowned a little and took half the things for our son’s birthday. I get to keep the meh. bag and sticker. FTW!
Meh sticker: I really appreciate that it doesn’t say meh.com. Advertising the viewer has to work for!
Meh puck: good squeezing for my bad tendon.
Inflatable banana: the dog is petrified of it. It also says it’s a ‘men’s banana’ on the back of the package. I should get a pic of that.
Cool bag: one can ever have too many.
Star Wars ruler: I was thinking ‘wow, Star Wars merch- meh must be doing alright to just give Star Wars stuff away!’. Then my son picked it up and said ‘Eewwwe an Episode 1 Star Wars ruler! That’s Amydala’s ship on it’.
A Zip Stick: all in one phone charger, flashlight and personal alarm. It’s a natty little device that I will be keeping in my bag. It added 20% on to my phone quite quickly. And the alarm is nice and irritating.
Piece de resistance- Ion portable record player. I got the less spiffy version years ago to transfer records onto my computer. I might start listening to records again on this though. Very cool!
First Fuko. Expected disappointment. It delivered… and how!!
1x Tinkertoy cylinder half full of tinker toys and other toys
1x Authorized Guide to Dick Tracy Collectibles
1x Lil Miss Sunshine Rug
1x set of superhero comic exclamation fly swatters
1x Darth Vader bazooka gum container! empty…
1x Meh puck, with extra stress relief
1x Meh fuko bag
1x Meh sticker
No pic, same stuff as already posted in various contents, but for the record the 1.4lb box had in it;
6x Texas Air
1x Audio-Technica SonicFuel Earbuds Red
1x Piranha Eyewear Sunglasses
1x Barbie Ceramic Trinket Box
1x Blow up Guitar
1x Meh Bag, Red
1x Meh Squishy Hockey Puck
1x Meh Sticker
Thanks to all for another fun adventure!
@mehla
I got the same as you only without the thermometer. I got a cap gun instead. The blentec that I received appears to be brand new. I fired it up last night and it worked beautifully.
I didn’t realize that these threads existed and didn’t post my last Fuko, which included a full size broken dyson vacuum, meh sunglasses, a coozie, dr Seuss birthday book, stack of popcorn scratch and sniff stickers, and small Dracula figurine.
This time around I received a witch costume, a business leather purse, a napoleon dynamite photo album and a credit card sized phone charger juice pack thing which so far seems to work.
a radio (walkie-talkie type) set. store-returned, originally sold for $39.95 because “doesn’t power on”, re-taped blister pack. my wife takes one look at it and goes “keep this away from our child”
a dog dress up costume. my dog liked it for about…-5 seconds.
@thismyusername fail on my part. totally forgot. one part of the costume looked like a yarmulke. i put it on my other dog’s head and made her go outside with it on.
@f00l You got the good stuff - bag, sticker, puck…that is what most people are netting once you discount the broken things and dollar store things. : ) And now you have so much tx air and boxes you can send a handful of us cool stuff and it won’t even arrive broken LOL
I didn’t realize posting bag contents here was a thing, so I sadly have no pictures. My box was a hair over 6lbs.
Meh bag, puck and sticker
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire Prince Xizor ~10" figurine/bath toy
~10" figurine of an oriental doll with drum that has already made its way to a spot I imagine my coworker who finds it very creepy looking will notice about halfway through Monday
a (new) pair of medium performance socks
a chips maker box set thing
2 20" inflatable starfish
The joy I will get from torturing my coworker with the one doll over the course of the next month before he inevitably makes it vanish forever is more than worth the price and the socks are rather comfortable. I think my boss has absconded with Xizor, though I am sure he’ll show up eventually and the starfish had a short, glorious life being used as gigantic shuriken during a nerf raid. I am still confused by the chips maker set, but since it involves cooking I am sure to have minor burns in my future when I decide to be brave enough to try and figure it out.
You know when everyone gets picked for a game at gym and your the last kid to be picked? That totally sucks right. Well, I got locked out of the fukobukuro gym! Hell you moved the fricken school on me! How often is fukobukuro offered? Congrats to all the lucky people
1 x Prince Xizor Vinyl Doll (Star Wars)
1 x meh. hockey puck
1 x meh. sticker
1 x those hummingbird feeders
1 x blow up 1000lb carnival style dumbbell
1 x Resident Evil Wall Clings
A fuko. A disappointment. A port-o-let cavalcade of broken dreams.
Finally got down to the Post Office to get my 12:00:15, 2.9lb Fuko. (it had been there for 4 days, I was dying with curiosity!) As the postie handed it to me, she said “It rattles. Hope nothing is broken.” In my mind, I saw shattered glass, but told her “It’s supposed to sound like that! It’s a meh package. Look at the return address!” She did and laughed!
I got out to the car and opened it and found the following:
◉ Move the Ball game (source of rattle!)
◉ Napoleon Dynamite photo book
◉ iWorld 3 port USB Battery Pack
◉ Monkey purse
◉ Inflatable Nemo
◉ Meh bag, hockey puck and sticker
Meh, you did it again. I will never complain about ‘not getting the good stuff’ because it’s always good stuff! The meh hockey puck is already in the freezer, it may get accidentally dropped onto the ice this winter during a game! And nothing weird to explain when I went through customs!
Thanks, Meh!
fukobukuro received Thursday:
Meh Puck
Meh Sticker
Meh bag
2Pac shot glass
PB&J spreader
Pair of Gojo Hands free headsets
Haier 9" Tablet (previously owned with a bunch of fingerprints but in good shape, no noticeable physical damage, initially thought to be DOA because…I tried charging overnight with the supplied charger…didn’t work…tried a mini usb phone charger…didn’t work…before i thought i’d disassemble it for gits and shiggles, i tried a portable battery pack i had laying around and lo and behold it started taking a charge. it does take a long time to fully charge but now the phone charger works on it. Not quite sure why it didn’t before but, meh…The supplied charger works intermittently at best…once fully charged the tablet started up and worked just fine)
Fuko came in the day before I left town, so I completely forgot about posting and now I can’t take pictures. But everything but one* has already been posted in this thread.
Obligatory bag, puck and sticker
My Little Pony popup songbook
American Flag bath mat
Toy shaving kit
Inflatable owl
*And an ice cream mix-in soft serve thingie that will come in handy at my company’s Christmas gift exchange.
Got these yesterday… nice… for a first Fuko
FUKO bag
Meh hockey puck
Meh sticker
Funny looking soap pump
Star Wars Ruler (only inches no cm)
RCA 7 inch Tablet TV
Old 5 inch photo album
the RCA tablet required a security code to login. Had to reset
7.6lb 8am fuko received Saturday
-16 bags of Texas air
-Bride and groom clock
-Porcelain burger-shaped salt and pepper shakers
-Designer purse from some designer guy (wife quickly claimed it)
-Kid’s plastic golf set (with driver kindly folded in half to fit in the box)
-Men bag/sticker/puck
I know I took pictures, but they don’t seem to be on my phone. Got a “remorse” hair dryer, monkey backpack, inflatable turtle, and bag/sticker/puck. Granddaughter was looking forward to playing with the box, and the 26 bags of Texas air.
Super late on the reply here, but here’s the haul. Got the requisite sticker, bag, and puck. Plus a few bits of nonsense that the kids liked. At first I thought we’d gotten a Fuku, but nope:
Last, was a broken glass bird feeder with no external indication that it was broken. Opening the box spewed tiny shards of glass all over the house. Thanks, meh!
Hey there you motherfucking Mehicans (still the preferred demonym among the meh cognoscenti)! Bazillionth time listener, bazillionth time poster. (See what I did there?)
Look, I’ve failed to post multiple fuku/fuko/fucko et al. (goat prize, etc.) hauls. Fucking sue, me why don’t you? And then there was that time I promised (sort of, not really actually; I suggested the possibility) to sponsor some kind of contest to get rid of some of the worthless shit meh sent me. I am a total fucking failure. But you’re probably happy about that–and if you aren’t you should be; I mean, goddamnit, what does it take to please you people?–because I’m verbose and foul-mouthed and, if we’re totally honest, more than a little creepy. Hence the reason I like this place. It is, like I am, a celebration of mediocrity, turpitude, incompetence and the utter lack of greatness and success (yeah, meh even fails to always fail, IMNSFHO).
A more honorable man might look meh deeply in the eyes and say, “Hey girl, I know I let you down, but I promise I’ll do better. I’m gonna be there for you, baby. I’m turning over a new leaf. You can count on me.” Jesus, am I Ryan Gosling in your wet dreams? No, no I am not. I am a loser. I have nothing to offer. Nothing to say (ha, and yet all of these words). I will likely fail you the next time and the next time, etc. (too much to keep typing the “nexts”). But I’m here now. That’s all you gonna get.
And all of that is just a bad excuse for the mediocrity of what follows. Yeah, again, all of those words. And was it worth it? Probably not for you, but I had fun. I got mine, you get yours, meh.
Got home to this (last Thursday). Who fucking does this? What the fuck is the matter with you, postal people? What if my box contained something of actual value and fell? Fuckers.
The haul:
Pepsi serving tray?
Pop fly swatter pack (of two; really, that’s a “pack”)
Little Miss Sunshine rug
obviously previously opened (based on inspection of contents) Mr Coffee Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker
obligatory Texas air (not pictured)
fukobukuro bag
hidden sneakily inside the bag: meh stress puck
also hidden sneakily inside the bag: meh puffy sticker
Meh. You’ve sent me junkier junk.
The breakdown:
Pepsi serving tray?
Who (pre-meh) thought this would be a good idea? Kinda looks like a bottle cap, so that’s almost cute. It’s in good, new condition if I ever thought I wanted to use this shitty-looking thing.
With Canada Dry Ginger Ale can (sorry, the wiffy just made banana bread, so all out of nanners) for scale. Nominal irony.
With fly swatter and wife’s foot in the background for I don’t know why.
Pop fly swatter pack
Ha. Pop fly. I just got that. Anyway, yeah, We’ll actually use these. They’re well built. They’ll kill things. And they look cool. Not bad, meh, not bad. Worth the five bucks, IMO. But we all know I’m easy.
They even seem to have this feature (?) that allows the splat area to be extended and/or made floppier. Who the fuck knows? But it’s deliberate. And the head extends and snaps into the notches. Weird as fuck–because I don’t see actual value.
Little Miss Sunshine rug
I thought for more than a few seconds of bringing it in to the office. But why? And where else? This will be regifted to some unlucky sap person. Probably together with the Pepsi tray, similarly useless and therefore good for giving away.
Mr Coffee Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker
I was simultaneously excited and nervous about this. We could use a new coffee maker. I was right to be nervous. It seems to be otherwise functional, but it leaks like hell and we haven’t been able to figure out how to make it stop. Damnit. Haven’t given up yet, but it’s probably already been more trouble than it’s worth. Fuko you, meh. Sigh. And did I say damnit? Because damnit.
Texas Air
One bag. It seems like I should feel ripped off that I only got one. But I can get my own damned Texas air. You all may go to hell, but I’m already in Texas. So same difference, right, Davy?
fukobukuro bag
A genuine collector’s item. Or hoarder’s artifact. IOW a worthless piece of shit that I will greedily hang on to for no good reason and it’ll make my wife like me a little less (but she still loves me and she likes me a lot; and yet, what a silly thing to waste my like capital on).
Pictured with sneakily-hidden meh stress puck
and sneakily-hidden meh puffy sticker
(because they seem like a matched set)
Other side of the puck
I don’t know if anyone else has tried this, but the puck slides really well. Kind of impressive in a low expectations sort of way. The wife enjoyed herself with it. Goes well with (and creates another use for) the swatters. She was, btw, accidentally wearing the meh shirt. Because we have lots of meh shirts and it only makes sense to wear them IRL. I have slow-motion video of her flipping the puck like a pancake. She caught it twice and I don’t think I captured either triumph. So I’ve got that going for me. I may try to figure out how to post it, if anyone cares.
In summary, appropriately meh, shitty junk. I sure wish that damned coffee maker worked. As it is, I’d be better off without it. It is a fuko. What kind of fucking moron pays for an unlucky bag anyway? Who pays to take someone else’s trash? I do. I haven’t decided if I’m proud of that or not. But I will cherish my more meh mehmorabilia, because I’m sick like that.
1 WITCH. Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.
2 WITCH. Thrice and once, the hedge-pig whin'd.
3 WITCH. Harpier cries:—'tis time! 'tis time!
1 WITCH. Round about the caldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.—
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one;
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot!
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
3 WITCH. Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg'd i the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver'd in the moon's eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar's lips;
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,—
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingrediants of our caldron.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
@f00l Ah. That actually does make sense. I use as my excuse an increasing despair about the condition and internal character of humanity–Americans most especially.
My Fuk showed up a couple days early. First time ever Smartpost was AHEAD of schedule. By the time it arrived I had already left town for a weekend for a short little birthday weekend vacay.
I arrived home last night and found it waiting for me.
Contents:
Black & Decker Fruit and Veggie Juicer (open box, no instuctions, appears to be new/unused)
Alien wall relief
Vinyl pool toy 120cm inflatable donut.
Meh sticker, hockey puck and bag.
Bag of Fuk. Thanks for the kicks, Meh!
I was exhausted from my weekend away and didn’t take a pic. Maybe tonight, but it’s all stuff everyone else has posted already.
I’m offering the juicer for trade. Any takers, let me know what you have in kind.

1 x Coors Light Bottle Opener Necklace (um…you don’t need one of these for Coors Light bottles)
I got mine last week- can’t be fucked to take a photo because I’m sick, and there wasn’t anything particularly photo worthy. I got:
1 x Eragon playing cards
2 x Edward Scissorhands mini photo albums
1 x inflatable hippie guitar (Groovy Baby)
1 x TENS unit, untested as of yet.
1 x meh sticker
1 x meh cat toy (puck style)
1 x red fukomawhatsit bag.
Edit: I almost forgot the shitload of Texas air. The box was large and mostly empty except for that bounty of breathable(?) goodness.
No picture, opened at the office last Thursday and I got too excited to take one before doling out Meh-smas cheer to all of my co-workers.
6 x Texas Air(popped loudly at work to snap co-workers out of their post-lunch doldrums)
1 x Meh Bag(red)
1 x Meh puck(black, gifted to most stressed co-worker)
1 x Meh sticker(final destination as yet undecided)
1 x Chicken Thermometer(gifted to co-worker who will keep at desk and set off at odd times to liven the place up)
1 x Angry Bird Plush(red, wearing a beanie for some reason… gifted to co-worker with dog that will enjoy the toy)
1 x USB Hubman(given to wife to help decorate her new office)
And the winner of the day:
1 x Chromebook 2 in perfect working order. Looks like it’s got a couple of hotspots in the screen but you can’t see those 95% of the time. Perfect interneting computer!
7 x Texas Air
1 x Meh bag (red)
1 x Meh puck (squishy)
1 x Meh sticker
1 x Inflatable Starfish pool toy
1 x Eragon playing cards (factory sealed)
1 x Eragon metal lunch box (factory sealed)
1 x Memorex MP3142 AM/FM Radio with CD Player (w/ broken latch, CD hatch stays open)
1 x Memorex MP3142 warranty information
So that hockey puck turned out to be a rather desired item. Both my 3.5 year old son and 1.5 year old daughter love that damn thing. So what I thought was a rather disappointing fuku turned into something very rewarding after seeing their enjoyment.
Can’t get a boc on the other site …so got the subscription and still can’t get one…check every day at 8…so I’m paying to be disappointed not quite the same as the potential disappointment from a fukobukuro…gah
Oh, wait. No, it isn’t. Sorry. It was more like this:
• 1 Decorative paper lantern
• 1 set of Jamie Oliver knives
• 1 Barbie shoe box thingy
• 1 meh sticker
• 1 meh puck ( being chewed on by Agamemnon)
• 1 Hyper Disc
• 9 martini plates – WHICH ARE TOTALLY DEFECTIVE! I TRIED TO POUR A MARTINI INTO ONE AND IT ENDED UP ALL OVER THE FLOOR!!!
@sammydog01@RiotDemon There is, smart post is classified as 3rd class mail, and not offered as part of the free forwarding service. Learned that recently.
I had contacted support when the order was still processing, but they had told me to try to hold it for pickup or have it forwarded. I chose the latter. Live and learn, I suppose.
I’ll take any of the Popeye stuff if anyone doesn’t want it. Or the broken electronics. Love tinkering. Im pretty sure thats why they called me tinker toes in high school. Triplebud at Gmail. I’ll send you my address
Mine arrived today after the post office sent it back to meh (possibly mail-forwarding related from my recent move).
bag
puck
Coors Light bottle opener on a leather cord (hope I can open bottles of cider and craft beers with this)
Izon view, which is great because I was looking to add another security camera to my apartment (more proof meh is stalking us)
meh-branded 10 foot bungee cable so I can sit on the other side of the room from my charging station, or maybe play jump rope with the
neighborhood kids
chocolate labrador puppy mug (seems heavier than usual) from the sadly defunct www.puppies-kittys.com- I’ll probably regift this because I am not a dog person and the puppy is kind of creeping me out
Finally got around to playing with my tablet… screen wasnt working and a friend picked it up with a stronger grip and walla… it works. Not sure what I will do with it.
This seems a bit soon.
@hollboll Well, how else would fellow mehmbers coerce the shipping department to work faster?
FWIW, I did not add to their workload.
@narfcake we work the opposite way. The more you bug us about something, the longer it gets put off.
@hollboll So if we keep bugging you, then these will NEVER ship!
/cue evil laughter
@narfcake
/giphy probably
@hollboll If we bug you long enough, will your warehouse burst out with all the products you will no longer have space for eventually?
@ELUNO I’ll just put the fukos in the baler to save space.
Wow mine is already here!
Here’s what I got
As always thanks meh!
@Ignorant WHY haven’t you been goated yet?
@hollboll - I’m actually surprised the shipping and reveal threads took this long to appear.
/giphy true dat
@Pavlov they wouldn’t be cannibalism, but maybe 1/2 cannibalism
@Yoda_Daenerys I can’t figure it out either way-
@Pavlov Only if they swallow.
@SirLouie Ladies don’t spit.
I got a huge shipment of Texas Air, flavored with Football Weather.
Was sitting there waiting for me 1st thing outside this morning.
Awesome.
/giphy Texas Autumn
I originally posted in the shipping thread. Did not see reveal thread had already been started. Started as everyone else at 2.2lbs and ended up being 6lbs. Was supposed to be here Tuesday but came early and got here today. Mrs 2.2 placeholder is now up to 7.9lb is still on track to get here Tuesday.
1 Sony Wireless Headphones. (MDR-RF985RK)
1 Pook-A-Looz Cheshire Cat spinning toy
1 Ertl (6654) 1995 Corvette Model Yellow.
1 Coffee Mug from the TV Show "The Office"
1 Meh Bag
1 Meh Hockey Puck (Soft) maybe a stress toy sorta thing?
@turk911 Yay! First reveal!
@turk911 While I’m not a fan of RF headphones, those should sound really really nice. $107 on amazon right now too. Not too shabby for a fuko.
@Nexar I bet they’re “broken” in some fashion. Most likely and easy fix if they are though
@turk911 No bags of Texas air?!
@turk911 I so want that hockey puck!
/giphy gimme
@turk911 I’d be really excited about The Office coffee mug!
@turk911 Nice haul!!! Mine doesn’t arrive until Friday.
I received:
Fuko bag. Yay
Who playing cards. OK
Meh puck. OK
Vvs tape on easing hands. Ha!
Phone case for something. Meh
9 inch filthy tablet that won’t boot. Sometimes it shows the haier logo, but seems to be getting worse. So a fairly crappy paper weight. I would have been quite pleased had it worked, but no.
@D_a_v_e Sometimes shows the logo? bet its the battery. Charge it, pop it up and try to fix the USB port, etc.
@D_a_v_e I got one of those in the last Fuku. Charge it up (it takes forever but the charger that came with it seems to work the fastest). Once charged, hold the volume up button for about 10 seconds. It’ll go into the boot menu. Do a restoration on it and you’ll be good to go. It’s not the best tablet in the world, but it works for my kids to use here and there.
@D_a_v_e
I had missed the meh sticker in the bag. When I saw other posts it made me look and it was there! Yay!
I like the puck, not sure why but I do.
The tablet does seem to be coming to life. After charging, a factory reset, cache clearing, and software update it may just work out for the kids.
I hope there wasn’t any biohazardous substance on it, but it’s reasonably clean now.
They should have send a VCR so I could play the tape.
Just got the notice of 19 lbs of goodness delivered this morning - something to look forward to when I can get to the office and check the contents - woohoo!
@Pavlov Its been 29 minutes already! Is everything alright?!?!?
@Pavlov 19 pounds?!?! There must be a lot of bluetooth speakers in there!
Sorry for the delay -
1 18 inch square cardboard box
6 bags of Texas gaseous sustenance (1 partially deflated)
1 red Fuko bag
1 Meh foam puck
1 Meh sticker
1 Miller Lite trucker hat (new)
1 The Monkeys at Home children’s imagination playset (made in 1986)
1 Elvis Blue Hawaii tin drink serving tray (AWESOME)
1 6-quart refurbished CrockPot with removable “HeatSaver” stoneware crock (@MrsPavlov says it appears brand new - she took it home this morning and she’s already using it for dinner tonight)
Thanks Meh!
It’s here, it’s here, it’s …tiny, 11x8x6.
That’s a bag, squishy disc (yay!), sticker (yay!), Star Wars ruler (put in at an angle because the box was less than a foot across), steak knife set, weird tiny Barbie shoe box with bonus pink purse inside, and the best part:
He’s adorable! Thanks guys!
@sammydog01 Elefuuuuun!
Edit: I am indeed super blind.
@sammydog01 i wonder if someone else got a donkey for political fairness
@ELUNO Look on top of the knives.
@sammydog01 lol, yes, I saw it after I posted it. In my defense, I was distracted by Elefun.
@sammydog01 lol
Meh bag
Meh puck
Blow up world
Barbie porcelain shoes
I robot braava 375t
@jml326 Does the iRobot work? Why aren’t you more excited?!
@ELUNO I was more excited about my elephant.
@ELUNO powered up but shuts down. Sitting on charger right now. Will update.
@jml326 the suspense is killing me!
@jml326 The first charge should take about 24 hours.
@MehsterSplinter @ELUNO OMG I didn’t want anyone to die!
/giphy jump for joy
It moves!
Received mine after a meh record- 2 day shipping.
Meh bag
Meh puck
Meh sticker
Eragon playing cards
Emergency stop button
Easy Eggwich
Dell Digital TV Receiver- which if anyone knows how to make this work on a mac, so far I’ve failed.
@hpsmith Eragon playing cards meh? Seriously, sometimes you just have to say no.
As for the receiver, someone in the product sale page said it does work. (Search for mac and you will find the post)
Product Page
@hpsmith I need that emergency stop button in my day to day life.
Mine came today. Barbie slippers, audio technica earbuds, animal shower curtain hooks, Napoleon Dynamite photo album, meh bag, sticker and hockey puck, Blow up flamingo and duck.
@Neech Are those for floating beers in the pool?
@sammydog01 The pool or the bathtub.
@Neech Classic Meh!
Mrs Fuko came in today
Meh bag
Meh puck
Meh sticker
Barbie Clutch with Gloves
Happy Birthday Silicone Chocolate Mould
Ice Cream Kit for ice cream makers (maker not included)
RCA DAA730R 7" Android 4.1. Tablet with TV Tuner (seems to be working fine and like new condition)
@turk911 Score!
@turk911 sweet!
@turk911 have you tried the tv tuner? it freezes everytime I try to scan for channels
@sp3ar @turk911 @Kingfish28 @wildcat @heartny @thismyusername @blue_yeti let’s try to see if there is updated firmware for this, updated anything. I contacted RCA, they said to call 1 800 894 0956 but who knows how deep that rabbit hole will be?
Mine overheats so I suspect I’ll be opening it up at some point. But me and the missus watched some Colbert on it and that was nice.
@excarnate I searched for some time and found no updates, also the built in updater fails when it tries to lookup the server name.
Some mentioned they rooted their rca tablets (not necessarily this model) using pdanet… but I didn’t dig much deeper.
I live too far out for tv signals but I have stored mine in a FINE HIGH QUALITY BUILT NY NEOPRENE FLOWER PRINT CASE and will test tv function when I am in town… the upside it doesn’t freeze when scanning, but it finds nothing out here in the boonies.
@turk911 I can’t get my tablet or turn on
@thekenya *to turn on
So I got in town and picked up a couple stations… so it does work as a portable tv… it looked ok. it doesn’t seem to have much range with that tiny antenna… will try again when on the other side of town to see if I get any big stations (these seemed to be a couple smaller stations).
I still have found nothing about any updates or any prebuilt roms for it… anyone else have any luck?
@thekenya me neither. found any fix?
@thekenya @Batrex_D did you charge them up for some time? if so try holding the power button down for 30 seconds.
@thismyusername I finally got close to the city to try the tuner, the EPG and ended up with 4 channels.
Have not found any other Roms or updates either. Virtually no mention of this tablet anywhere aside from few places that are selling/sold it.
@thekenya You might need to hold the volume up button then hold power when you try to turn it on, that will get you into restore mode and you can run the factory reset from there.
@turk911 Is there a way to attach an antenna? I used an indoor one and even though I was 15-20 miles from the stations I got all the over the air ones. Where I live now (cement and steel building where I face north and all stations are south of me) I can’t get anything with an indoor antenna (but the people facing south can).
@turk911 I have a suspicion these were those super cheap black friday tablets from a bit back in time…
1.4 lbs Fuko:
Meh tote
Meh puck
Sharper Image Pet pedometer
Soft Dart Gun
Chef Pals Pork Thermometer (Oink)
Digital Camera Case!
@CozzaFrenzy The things I’d accomplish with a Pet Pedometer…
@CozzaFrenzy Gosh those foam dart guns have been sent out on multiple Fukus and fukos. They must have even more of them than the seizure glasses. They do hurt, by the way, when someone shoots them at you at close range…
@CozzaFrenzy Yet another “Classic Meh!”
There’s hope for us all!
FedEx showed my 2.2 lb box was due to arrive Friday, but instead I happened upon a much heavier box on my new apartment doorstep tonight!
The loot:
Thank you Meh; you gals ‘n’ guys rock!
help! the picture is sideways!?
@wooterondo looks fine to me. Just turn your screen
@wooterondo You should have given your neighbors the portable bidet instead!
My Fuko finally arrived today. Originally showed 2.2 lbs via tracking, then changed to a whopping 6 lbs. My biggest haul to date:
Obligatory Texas air (yum); Designer car sun shade (animal print - useful!); Napoleon dynamite photo book (awesome!); captain jack army cap pistol (I won’t take this with me on the plane); meh hockey puck and sticker (double awesome!); meh bag (did not make it into the photo, lame I know…) plus a Bem wireless Bluetooth Duo stereo system (actually works well after about 15 minutes of fussing)!!
Overall, very pleased. Thanks guys!!!
@bettynugs I got that BEM blue tooth in my last Fuko but one of the speakers has a really annoying buzzing sound. does yours? Do you know anyway to fix this?
@lennon818 if it has an aux in port shine a light in there and see if anything is stuck in there…
@lennon818 No, mine does not make any annoying sounds (other than a few bad 80’s songs that somehow find their way into the musical rotation). BUT, with 3 different potential Bluetooth failure points and a cheaply-made plasticy base controlling all the action, I don’t excpect this thing to last very long. Have you tried contacting Bem via email? I’ve had good luck with other manufacturers using that path.
Mine arrived today. Included with the obligatory Texas air were a bag, a flintlock-style cap gun, the Fuku bag which I shall carry proudly to the market, a pair of Piranha Eyewear shades (tortoise shell, very nice), and a returned Martian Notifier smartwatch (black / black), which is currently charging and we’ll see how / if it works. Very cool. I’m a happy camper, in the “let’s see if these new toys can help to fill the void in my life” kind of way.
@accumulator pics or it didn’t happen
I just found out that my FUKU is in POLAND!!!
Ohio, Poland Ohio…should be here by Friday
@somf69 Maybe you’ll get some kielbasa…
@somf69 let’s see was i datin’ a girl from eaton, or …
an OH-IO classic joke from the 70’s
First fuku here, bags of Texas air, cardboard box, meh bag, sticker, and hockey puck, inflatable duck beer holder, inflatable palm tree beer holder, tan and pink Paul Frank bag with a monkey face on it, aprons and attitude wine glass, and a uniden app cam 23
@BrasilEngineer Congrats!
@BrasilEngineer Pics! We need pics!
It’s finally here! It didn’t contain anything particularly breathtaking, but I am sure some of you will envy a pair of things I got!
4 bags of delicious Texas air.
1 pack of Summer study flash cards (Summer is over meh! What am I supposed to do with these?!?)
1 24oz blue Bubba HERO bottle
1 Futurama collectible tin sign
1 meh bag
1 meh puck
1 meh sticker (slightly crumpled)
1 inflatable turkey leg
1 preciously envied pair of chick slippers
1.4lb Fuko innards! Very mediocre indeed.
Floaty Palm trees x2, USB Hubman, Novice Triangle Instrument (\m/>.<\m/), Outback Steakout bobblehead (15 year anniversary in 2003!), Meh sticker, puck, bag!
Not even Texas air… Phooey!
@lilsrm123 After you perfect the novice triangle maybe you can get an intermediate triangle. Ding!
@lilsrm123 Congratulations! That’s the worst one yet!
@lilsrm123 Was there any Texas air in the palm trees?
@madmaxmedia I think I have that title now
@awk nope… had to waste the air in my lungs!
Oh boy! I’m far from feeling “Meh” about this Fuku that I was able to snag.
1 Juicer and Sorbet maker (Any time a Meh employee comes through my city, hit me up for some free juice! Sorbet is for me only…)
1 Back scratcher?
1 DESIGNER window shade!
2 Cup holder floaties.
1 Meh stress puck.
1 Meh vinyl sticker!
Imgur.com/a/onUfi
@Tiverty the arch stick is a personal back massager. I saw some people doing Amazon reviews. At first they were confused but then fairly happy with it.
@Tiverty nice pictures. Please tell me you were unboxing and photographing while driving! I so want to be more impressed!
@kevin8er No, I’m sadly not that adventurous.
Oh well meh is here…still no roomba :(—
Anyways — here is the reveal in all its meh glory-
2 small bags of Texas air
One Meh sticker
(Another ) plastic yellow 1995 Corvette convertible car
One meh puck with meh face on other side
One meh bag
One pork pig thermometer
One Alien
One HD 1080 p SquareHD camera
Meh oh meh- still worth what I paid but still hoping one day…one day for my elusive wish gift:)
[1]:
@AttyVette The SquareHD camera makes it more than worth it! Plus an alien?!
@AttyVette Look at all the fun you can have with your very own alien!
Just got mine
@whistlingwilly Sheldon!!! I want Sheldon.

Pepperoni Pizza Slice Inflatable Pool Float
E.T. the Extra Terrestrial Phone Home Talking Book

Monster Adidas Originals Over Ear Headphones
And a Fuko bag.
How do Chuck Norris and plushies go together?
In any case, thanx Meh!!
@SPARTEN2 I cannot believe that you haven’t blown up that horse yet. The inflatable one, not a real one.
Got mine today.
Thanks!
![Fuko is Here][1]
1.6 lbs arrived this afternoon (on day earlier than originally scheduled)

@Hskrjer99 Wow! This makes me feel a little better about mine! Both very meh!
20 Lbs arrived today.
First Fuko where everything actually works and arrived in one piece. Color me impressed!
/giphy color me impressed
@Mehrocco_Mole
/giphy impress me with color
@Mehrocco_Mole I need to find me one of those gator toothbrush things. My daughter would loose her mind. Nice haul
@StrangerDanger Take a look here.
My Fuko was from the midnight group.
1)napoleon dynamite garbage can
2)natures way hummingbird feeder
4)mediocre socks
@jtintner final weight 7.9lbs
To everyone who posts-please give the weight of your Fuku and when you snagged it-Midnight-morning or 4:00 PM-will give those of us still waiting for ours some hope or make us more depressed. So far the lighter the package-the worse the contents are.
@Felton10 they aren’t worse. They’re more whimsical.
@Felton10 Pretty much the best item I’ve seen so far from any of the bags are my pair of chick slippers which weigh nothing. So you can still be very lucky with a light bag.
@Felton10 Do remember this is a fukO and not a fukU so expect a higher percentage of trash, busted stuff, junk and crap…
FedEx-noon today-8.1#s
Thanks meh!
First one! About 7lbs For some reason it won’t let me post a picture. 8:00 a.m. eastern buy. Our box contained:
Thanks Meh!
No reason that I can tell for mine to have come FedEx Home instead of USPS. Contents included:
Meh bag
Meg sticker
Meh squeeze thing
Hot wheels Monster Jam Geave Digger car
Chef Pals Beef Thermometer
Pet Pedometer
Precious Moments 1998 God Loveth a Cheerful Giver figurine
Thanks meh.com people!!
@AnnaB Grave. Not Geave.
@AnnaB USPS isn’t guaranteed, SmartPost just means it will come via the cheapest means possible, did you receive other packages FedEx that day maybe?
Oh joy! A 18lbs fuko! All the others have been so small, not even breaking 5lbs as far as I recall.
Oh but I should have known. The bigger it is, the more disappointment it holds.
Broken Pepsi plate thing. I actually like Pepsi. So that was disappointing.
A [very smelly] hammock thing. Seriously this thing reeks of chemicals.
Two comedy fly swatters. These might actually get some use.
A douche. Or enema or bidet or whatever. Thanks meh.
The crème de la crème. A coffee maker. I don’t actually drink coffee, but oh the joyous thoughts of making tea!
Well I should’ve known better when I saw the bright red “RT” scrawled on the side. I presumed it stood for return, but I had gotten return items before and they were pristine.
Oh boy, but not this coffee maker.
I’m not entirely certain meh didn’t violate some bio-hazards/weapons law by sending this to me.
It is absolutely filthy. Hand grease all over it. Someone made an attempt at cleaning it, but instead it just ended up looking like streaked handprints. He filter compartment is dirty. Somewhat interestingly the water tank is nearly pristine. Guess the previous owners must’ve had really soft water. Oh and the pot, by god the pot. It looks as though a small rodent died inside of it and its fluids pooled at the bottom of it.
The area holding the pot is dusty and smacked up as well.
Well it’s going straight in the trash.
This also leaves me with another troubling thought. Is the enema pump used as well?
@Nexar
/giphy bravo
@Nexar since you like Pepsi, you shouldn’t be too upset at the broken Coca Cola plate?
@RiotDemon it says Pepsi-Cola. You can see the ‘si’ before the cola
@Nexar
/giphy "hangs head in shame"
“Is the enema pump used as well?”
Some people have all the luck…
Got my 3.3-lb Fukubukuro Box today (3 days early) with the following:
1 Fuku Bag
1 Wine Glass
1 IZON Video Monitor
1 Inflatable Seal
1 Princess Crown Toy Set
1 Foam Puck
1 Meh Sticker
1 Summer Study Flash Card Set
A pretty nice haul; thanks! If I could have two foam pucks, that would be even better. Wife took it right away.
The seal claims 20 inches of fun, can you verify?
@unlvswezel you might get more response if you respond to the person’s post instead of just posting another comment.
I received a 7.2 lb fuko today. FedEx was sure it would arrive on Friday, but for a change, the USPS was ahead of the game.
I am so sorry for how huge those pics are.
Mine, mine is gonna suck at 1.7 lbs…I don’t think I’m even gonna get a BAG with that.
@madmaxmedia That about all you are going to get plus a broken smart watch. Trust me-I’ve been there.
@Felton10 ha ha, if all I got was a WORKING smart watch I would be happy with that-
Got mine a couple days early. Snagged at 11 pm CST. Weight = 19lbs
• Obligatory Meh bag, puck and sticker
• 36" horse (new)
• My Little Pony “Magic Friendship Songs” book - still in shrink wrap
• Elvis left handed cigarette tray
• Neato Botvac 65
Unfortunately the botvac is a return from Newegg. It charges but comes up with a “stick fan error.” This very much reminds me of the BOC I got in 2008 or 9 in which I received a broken Roomba Scooba. I was able to fix that one. Maybe I can fix this suck-bot too.
Thanks Meh.
@bluebeatpete Dat horse, tho. Serious envy here.
@OldCatLady you have horse envy?
Come on RiotDemon. People make mistakes and write on the bottom box instead of the smaller “reply one.” Hell, I do it all the time!
8.2 lb package arriving today, purchased at 8 am
/giphy excited horse
20lb fuko arrived yesterday at 2:30 (purchased 8AM)
Not bad for a first fuko despite the broken pieces - hopefully will get some good use out of the food warmer
10-# morning buy
meh bag
meh sticker
meh puck
wedding clock that plays wedding march as Bride groom dance around
Napoleon photo album
camo pool raft

@gr8mick1 Photo of the clock? Pretty please?
@sammydog01 I want a photo of the robot shower curtain!

@gr8mick1
@gr8mick1 Classic!
@RiotDemon It seems to be this one:
What’s with all these inflatable items? Maybe mine will contain an inflatable blond. Now there is something I could use (when my wife is out of the house of course)
@Felton10 Or with her…
@jml326 @Felton10 You two perverts better stay away from my elephant.
@sammydog01 No one wants your elephant. Meh is all about goats.
@sammydog01 A threesome with an inflatable elephant. Now there’s something I haven’t tried before.
@Felton10 I tried a giphy for an elephant threesome and discovered that they do make inflatable animals for sex complete with the appropriate orifices. None of the photos were even safe for here. Horses were especially popular.
/giphy ewwww
It might show some sort of deep problem with my persona, but I think all these Fukos so far look pretty cool. Actually, I wouldn’t even mind a broken tablet - then I could take it apart and not feel like I was wasting any money breaking something.
@darkdragon so if you pay postage maybe someone with a broken tablet will send you theirs
@darkdragon I got a Trio Stealth 8 MST8-21 tablet that seemed like the only issue was the user had switched it to Spanish. I hard reset and set it back up in English and it was good for a few minutes. Then it was randomly back in Spanish, giving errors about Launcher crashing over and over, and pretty useless without another reset.
If you wanna pay for postage, I’ll gladly fish it out of the trashcan and send it to you.
@mikey Any idea what shipping might be? I’m in Oklahoma.
@darkdragon UPS is the only thing nearby. Looks like it’d be at least $10. Probably more if you’re not near a big hub.
@darkdragon If you wanna give me your address, I can check the price. mikey@bluey.com. Spambots shmambots.
Got mine today. 11:00pm purchase. 3ish lbs.
RCA tablet with TV tuner and pull out antenna! (Still logged into Jonathan’s Google account from December)
Paul Frank monkey purse that my 1 month old daughter might enjoy in a year.
Star Wars ruler.
Resistance Band by Daiso Japan Quality.
Inflatable Turkey Leg.
And Meh standards of bag, puck and sticker.
Package delivered 2 whole days early - can’t wait to get home and open my very light 2.9lb box. It can’t possibly contain anything but Texas air and I refuse to look at any reveals.
Mine just arrived, via USPS. I caught it at midnight, it’s 2.6 lbs, and it has seven items. Meh sticker (car window), meh puck (do these have a secret inside?), meh bag, Krusty the clown keychain, Olive Oyl figurine, soft dart gun, and a NuVision HD TM785M3 tablet, kitkat!!! Looks new, all parts in the box, no fingerprints on screen. Charging now. Overall it’s classic meh. The cat has claimed the bag.
@OldCatLady I’ll trade you my horse for the Krusty keychain.
@bluebeatpete Okay! email lorenawonser at gmail with your mailing address.
@OldCatLady Note: the NuVision was registered to somebody named Jose, who spoke Spanish, and its battery is dead, dead, dead, after 24 hours charging. Works okay when plugged in; I’ll do a factory reset and use it for a music player.
@OldCatLady I think I bought one of those NuVision tablets at sam’s club. I ended up taking it back because the sound was terrible. It was not capable of playing headphones loud enough for my kids to watch a movie in the car on the way to grandma’s. Good luck.
Mine just arrived!
5lb box, purchased in the 38 seconds it was available at 8am.
1x Meh sticker
1x Meh puck
1x Meh Bag
1x 4 pack Way Out West figures (all pissed off Native Americans.)
1x inflatable monkey
1x USB Hubman
1x Motorcycle cup holder (which will likely find itself attached to my lawn mower)
1x 38.2 feet of neon green hybrid tape rope LED light. Which I blinded myself and the cat with because we didn’t expect it to work.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a shitty Fuku, everything was immediately thrown into the garbage after I took the picture.
1-red meh bag
1-small black meh apron
1-deck of playing cards
1-cheap plastic phone case for droid razer
1-opened oriental trading 3d puzzle cube cardboard pieces
Next time I think I’ll wipe my ass with a $10 bill just for better enjoyment
@APDWaldo6
You’ve placed 1 order and it was a Fuko?
@Ignorant no not my first order with meh, I had gotten a amazon gift card so I signed in with amazon to see if I could use that, and it seems to have given me a new account by signing in with amazon, this was my 3rd or 4th fuko/fuku (I believe 4), had valentines, aprils fools day, and one other I believe before that.
@APDWaldo6 No, not the bag and apron into the trash!!! Those aprons are collectors items. Want to sell? Or trade?
@APDWaldo6 it’s a fuko not a fuku.
@sammydog01 gr8mick1 already set an offer the apron, whats yours? you can have the bag though if you want. I’ll send you a pm.
@sammydog01 I’ve been cleaning out stuff at Mom’s and I found the apron she ordered. (I’ve got one.) She never got to wear hers… I’d send it to you if you’d like. What’s your email?
@APDWaldo6 Your choice of my Henkel steak knives, a Bem wrist speaker, or a Sharper Image pet pedometer.
@APDWaldo6 You aren’t alone. While I didn’t get in on this bag, I’ve scored maybe 3 or 4 and basically threw the contents away. I’ve never ever gotten any of the good stuff.
Whatever glass items have always been broken. The couple if electronic items I received were returns that were dead or missing parts that I’d have to spend almost enough to buy the item new. The toy junk i received was just that - junk. My nephew or the kids on the block wouldn’t even play with…lol
Anymore, when I’m lucky enough to score a bag I just look at it as scoring a cute red $5 reusable bag.
I’d trade you the inflatable raft for the apron
@gr8mick1 sure maybe I could make this like the red paperclip story and trade up to a house
Here’s mine. I bought mine at midnight and it was listed as 2.6 lbs.
1 x Red meh bag/sticker/foam puck combo
1 x Pull back soft dart gun
1 x J Lab 7 Tablet (it boots, holds charge, connects to internet)
2 x Gojo headsets (still in bags, so it’s easier to throw in the trash this time).
1 x Mr. and Mrs. Who? Playing Cards ( http://www.kardify.com/2013/03/mr-and-mrs-who-playing-cards.html )
Overall, this one was not terrible. The tablet had a post-it note attached that said “BEST II” but I have received the same tablet in a past fuko and can confirm that it is actually the WORST. So, “best of the worst” is pretty on brand for meh.
Expectations MEHT.
My first-ever Fuko arrived yesterday!
With a mysterious note, no doubt by Meh’s resident calligraphy expert:
@trisk I love purple.
@trisk nice now just got to do a hdmi upgrade on it, its well worth itnes hidef upgrade
@trisk ooh ill take that nes! Working or not! Trade ya a triangle instrument!
Nice win!
@trisk But is it an NES?
@trisk but was it? so mysterious…
The suspense was killing me too, so…
The sticker on the bag says “Used Good” and the plastic’s not the gross shade of yellow you usually see. Game pad looks all right too. Score!
To be honest, hunting down old cartridges isn’t really my idea of a good time, and the emulators on my TV thingies don’t need an HDMI upgrade to look good.
Maybe I can help a collector out here with a trade (but I’m even less sure what to do with a novice triangle instrument).
@trisk The possibilities are endless with a novice triangle instrument!
@trisk Why did meh have this?!? Can we expect to see them for sale soon?!?!
@trisk FYI the NES doesn’t really turn yellow unless it’s stored in the sun or something else untoward, the SNES is the one that does that due to lower quality plastic being adopted in later models and/or the flame retardant chemical treatment they received at one point. It does look like a rather nice unit that someone packaged carefully!
@trisk what do you want for the nes? Cash? 30oz yeti maybe a woman’s sleeping bag from a different fuko.
So I got the bag with sticker and stress puck and 3 random objects.
PB spreader, I know there is some running joke on this, not sure why but my kid thinks this one is swell.

Haier open box tablet. Doesn’t seem to hold a charge. If I unplug it after a few hours of charging it turns off. Not sure what I can use it for yet since it needs to be plugged in at all times…
So not a whole lot but it came as advertised.
@StrangerDanger Stick the tablet to your bathroom mirror and say “OK Google, play me some shower music”
@trisk or “OK NSA, spy on me in the shower”
@StrangerDanger digital photo frame.
@StrangerDanger Electronic dartboard perhaps?
@katylava
@StrangerDanger I wasn’t very happy with mine at first. Charge it using the wall charger overnight. Do a factory reset, than wipe the caches. Mine seems fine enough for the kids now.
/giphy not bad
I didn’t get a meh puck…meh.
A meh bag, coffee maker, barbie shoes collectible, Pepsi serving tray, and Little Miss Sunshine carpet.
Dirty used coffeemaker
Little Miss Sunshine Rug
Flyswatter
Pepsi plate
Meh bag, slicker and puck
15lbs, 8am purchase. Doesn’t add proof that heavy packages are better. I would have loved the Napolean Dynamite photo album or waste basket. Still a fun experience for $5.
Recieved my 1.8lb morning Fuko today and it contained the following:
Eragon Playing Cards
Wonder Woman Photo Album
Star Wars Ruler
Audio Technica headphones
meh puck
meh sticker
meh bag
Delivered as promised. This was a 6.1 pounder, ordered right at the stroke of midnight EST. My 3rd fuku/o (My first was the anniversary fuku and an oversell with medical splint roll in there so hard to top that).
The contents:
Thank you Meh. You can’t put a price on the joy of opening a mystery box IMHO. But $5 seems about right and I’ll be back for the next one if I’m unlucky enough to nab one.
@bdp Your tablet’s battery might just be really, really flat. After two+ hours on a charger, my NuVision tablet is about 15% charged. Give it a day.
@OldCatLady does your NuVision touchscreen work?
@canprobablyfix I’ll try booting it when it has a charge tomorrow. The screen didn’t even have fingerprints when I took it out of the bag in the box, so I’m hopeful.
@OldCatLady I don’t see any signs of life after around 8 hours. Nothing lights up (not even the little power indicator dot) when I plug into the wall or usb to a wall charger or PC. Looks like this one may really be dead? Any other ideas?
@bdp After charging for 24 hours, my NuVision will boot if it’s plugged in, but the battery is completely dead. It was registered to a Spanish speaker, so I will factory reset. I may physically replace the battery. There are some guides on YouTube and ifixit. I do like dinking with hardware, as long as my job isn’t on the line.
@bdp After I replaced the microUSB/USB cable with a good one from my stash, it’s charging enthusiastically. I reset it and it’s updated, so I’m much happier. Quick, easy fix, and I didn’t have to call tech support to have them say ‘Did you try turning it off and then on again?’ I d/l the manual too.
@OldCatLady thanks for not giving up on me! Mine needed a charge via a different use cable and booted. Locked to the prior owner so I flashed the firmware and set it up. Fun little toy. Reminds me of the old nooks. Now to see if there are custom firmwares!
Mine’s arriving today. I am SO, SO excited for the Meh laptop sticker!
@mikey And by today, I guess I mean tomorrow now.
What is tthe!!!
Burger salt and pepper shakers, tofu decorations, ‘The Monkeys at home’
Oh and a GIANT HORSE
@ChosenZero How giant? Pictures! Is it made of wood or ceramic? Monkeys or Monkees?
@OldCatLady I’d prefer to see the Monkeys at home.
Mine came yesterday. It was 2.6 lbs. I got:
1-Chef Pals Pork Thermometer
1-shot glass
1-Meh Hockey Puck
1-Meh Sticker
1-Soft Dart Gun
And 1-Hello Kitty Android Tablet. It has the base for the charger to plug into the wall but no USB cable to charge it. Thankfully I have other Micro USB cables. It charged quickly and actually works. I had to clear off the photos that some little kid took of their couch but everything seems to work with it. Not really sure what I am going to do with it though…
@bfelosi Is there anything in this world that has NOT been Hello Kitty-ized yet?!
My 1.9 lb box of fuko from the midnight offering arrived today instead of Saturday and instead of Monday.
1- Meh fuko bag
1- Meh sticker
1- Meh hockey puck
1- Spiderman v Green Goblin battle toy (squeeze handle for battle action!)
1- pet grooming VHS tape
1- 12-hour indoor mechanical timer
1- GoJo adjustable headset
1- Aliens alien queen 5-function quartz watch, battery included! (Appears to have been manufactured in 1993!)
Pretty darned meh and pretty darned fuko!
@medonsw PICTURES!!!
@kevin8er Here’s a picture!
Just received my wonderful 2.9lb of meh. For 2.9lb, I actually feel like I did pretty solid.
@josephwegner That desk chair
![2.1 pounds of mehfuko arrived today! As you can see, I got:
a meh bag!
a meh puck!
a meh football!
a pair of meh socks!
a burger meh lord of the rings toy (gandoph…re:2001)!
a meh litter sheet for pets!
and a garmin activity watch, circa 2011!!
So, other than the socks, a total meh! production!!!
Thanks, Meh!
Forget everything I said about crappier things coming in small packages. Got mine today. (No pics-don’t know how to do that). Got a Stealth 7" internet tablet which actually appears to work (is charging and can turn it on), a soft dart gun, an angry birds dog toy and A Dick Tracy guide to collectibles. Plus the red bag and Texas air.
I am satisfied plus it gives me the right to hopefully order another one with no complains from the wifey.
PS 3.1 lbs and ordered at midnight.
Mine arrived today after thinking I got duped out of one of the 8 am ones that actually went through. First fuko!
After reading comments I had to double check on the humidifier, and it does look brand new. It’s got some expired coupons from 2014, but otherwise it’s still in an original bag with tape on inside parts from what I can tell. A pretty great deal if it does indeed work, as our other humidifier probably has a bunch of buildup in it from last year.
@dcNate I got the same humidifier on my first fuko couple of months ago. Box was beat up, but humidifier looked new and unused like yours. My daughter has been trying to sell it on e-bay with no takers so far.
My First Fuko Box Contents
– 1 Elephant
– 1 Dolphin?
@MehsterSplinter be gentle with the button on the magnetic utility light
@MehsterSplinter The LED Magnetic Utility light is pretty dope. That magnet is STRONG, fam. USB Hubman is coming with me to work because you can never have too many hubs, man. The Fuku Bag is going to discretely hide my assortment of beers next day-drinking opportunity… What a conversation piece.
Thanks Meh Peeps!
@thismyusername Fril, dawg? I am an aggressive button-pusher. This is good to know.
@MehsterSplinter It is a dolphin, according to Amazon
Dolphin!
@MehsterSplinter FYI - I ordered those lights before and broke one on first button push. Took the light apart and saw that the button is on the end of the circuit board with no support underneath. So when you push it you’re bending the board or snapping it in my case. I glued an eraser under the ones i didn’t break and they work fine so far.
spritty gud
@enfrique that power bank is good.
@RiotDemon Contigo has never made a bad product. Although I’m pretty jellies of that Alien Wall Hangy thing.
@MehsterSplinter I think you meant to reply to @enfrique? But @sammydog01 sent me one of those alien things!
mine is home waiting for me. 2.5 hours to disappoint! woop!
First Fuko, 6.6 lbs, midnight batch
1x Yellow 1995 Corvette (Not pictured)
1x Meh sticker, Fuko bag, Stress Puck
1x Wonder Woman Photo Album
1x Eragon Lunchbox
1x Inflatable Ice Cream Cone
1x JBL Pebble USB Speakers
Awesomesauce, Meh. Not only am I a comic nerd so the Wonder Woman photo book isn’t 100% out of character, but the lunchbox will at least physically match my Fallout 3 lunchbox on a display shelf. Do I need to read a book or watch a movie now, though? Is it good? Does it suck?
The Meh sticker is probably going on my Jeep.
The Ice Cream Cone is probably the weakest item, and will be given to a lactose intolerant relative. She’s gonna be mad.
The speakers, though? Daaaaamn, these sound nice. Probably going in a laptop travel bag on trips.
@TellarHK Nice haul!
@TellarHK readers of the books didn’t like the movie, I found it to be reasonably decent entertainment and was disappointed a sequel didn’t happen.
@TellarHK They sold those speakers a long while back. I bought some for a family member preset and they really like them although they complain the cord is a bit short.
My 6 lb. bundle of fuko arrived.
Bag, sticker, puck and a hint of air.
Bear shower hooks.
ET phone home thing.
HoMedics memory foam pillow.
A toxic-smelling blow up happy pickle! Had do use a compressor to inflate.
The bag is always great and I’ll give the pillow a try. Always fun. Thanks meh!
@etheltheflog Heh heh, a stinky pickle.
Fuko received on my birthday.
Hello Kitty foam stickers (someone at work is getting these, she’s our resident Hello Kitty fan)
Witch costume (Someone will want it)
Star Wars ruler
Meh sticker
Meh puck (I was pucked by Meh)
Fuko bag
All in all, a haul worthy of the name fukobukuro.
Here’s the Puck back.
@44R0N7 Olive Oyl*
@jbartus Oh haha. Good catch. I didn’t know that. Actually I probably could have actually read the package.
@44R0N7 what?! You never watched Popeye as a kid?
@jbartus Sure I did. But that’s been years ago.
2.Red Meh Bag (awesome sauce)
4.Nickolodeon lunch bag ( about 25 years after I would have been ecstatic to have it)
5.Miller Lite hat.( all I need is a pack of Newport and some butt crack)
6.Outback bobble head ( damn onions)
7.Elvis tin ( Thank you. Thank you very much. Uh huh.)
Oh and some nice Texas air. Have to say my first Fukubukuro was…meh.
http://imgur.com/yPFGegB
Oh and p.s…coffee maker leaks. Meh.
Mine arrived today.
6.Meh sticker
Came a day early! 11 lbs. Ordered at midnight.
1.) 7 bags of Carrollton air
2.) Meh bag
3.) Meh sticker!
4.) Meh stress puck.
5.) Kellogg’s Special K measuring cup
6.) Little Miss Sunshine rug.
7.) A plastic loaf of bread that my daughter claimed.
and…
8.) An iRobot Braava 375t mopping robot that should work in conjunction with the Neato Botvac I won previously from Meh! Maybe I’ll get a robot wife next time to pick up before the robot army cleans the floors!!
Longtime mediocre; First-time Fuko/u success
3.4 lbs, Morning Addition
@wildcat Update: The charging port on the tablet was not glued in place and the charger dislodged the port and pushed it far up into the tablet. I can’t charge it therefore it is garbage. Thanks Meh!
@wildcat open it and secure it back in place?
@RiotDemon I am attempting to do just that! That said, it appears to be glued together with no obvious way to gently take it apart. It is likely going to come apart only.to never be put back together again.
@wildcat I was able to open mine cause I had the same exact issue. Try flexing the tablet by bending it a little so a corner or edge pops up and stick a guitar pick in there to open it up. Mine’s gonna take some mad soldering skills to get it back on there though since my entire port came off the PCB.
@wildcat Ok, well it’s time to crack it open this week. First I tried to see if RCA would support it because it appears to be new. After being redirected 4 times, two of the numbers not even being real support desks, by various RCA support desks, it appears RCA is embarrassed to claim this as their own.
@wildcat YouTube has some videos and discussions re how to open this and repair the port.
Mine came yesterday, but I just got around to taking the picture because I’m lazy.
I got dog poop. No, really (2.8 lbs):
Contents:
Yea, I lucked out with this Fuko! The Chromebook is fully functional; it has a small 1" crack on the screen but is otherwise good to go. I’m writing this post on it now, in fact. Best Fuko/BOC I’ve ever received!
@jaconbits you fuko’d goood, you did
@jaconbits Replacement screens are available on ebay and amazon for about $60, last I checked. Fairly easy repair in general. Congrats!
6.8 lbs, morning purchase.
1.meh stocker
3 meh puck
Everything less the HomeKit is brand new, TBD if the instaon kit works
8.7 lbs
meh bag
meh puck
meh sticker
PT-Navigator Backpack-chair
Futurama tin sign
My Little Pony Song book
Pogo wallet battery charger
Adult witch dress
And it seems that the witch dress is in my size! Too bad I don’t actually go out for Halloween, else I could make a few people vomit.
2.2 lb
Hockey puck
Sticker
Bag
Inflatable giraffe
Banana slicer
Barbie clutch and white gloves
Napoleon dynamite photo album
I keep my “perhaps next time” streak alive.
@MrMark Is the banana slicer the common one for right handed bananas or the rare left handed banana slicer?
@djslack Sadly right handed. I considered selling it on ebay as the left handed banana slicer, but it comes with a stern warning and I didn’t want them to “use it for not used to be” and be held liable for the injuries
@MrMark Haha glad you caught this! Well done translation.
Kudos to whomever thought of using the promotional hockey puck stress “balls” for printing meh faces. I reckon that was loads cheaper than requesting something custom to use. Well done. I will be taking mine to the office to see if there are any meh users lurking there.
I got mine a day early, 10.7 lbs, Morning purchase
Completely surprised all around. The speakers look like they were gently repackaged, missing a manual, but seem to work.
4.8 lb box of disappointment arrived today.
5 year old and scream guy
@kassh Awww!
4 lbs, midnight batch.
Win?:
3 pack of frs/weather radios with charging dock. Looks returned so maybe not a win.
Meh:
Eragon lunchbox
Grand Tour shower curtain
Lose:
Zero Meh swag. No bag, no puck, no sticker.
Not Pictured:
6x Texas Air
Still the most fun you can have for five bucks, at least in the first world. Thanks, Meh!
@djslack You may want to hit up customer service- they owe you a bag.
@sammydog01 Disappointment is the lot of the Fuko buyer; I don’t think they owe me anything. And I have been very lucky with other offerings, so i’m way ahead overall. I have a few of the bags on hand so I’m not bagless. The stress puck meh face is new, so that’s a downer. And I’d always like more stickers. But there will be other Fukos to try for more. So I think I’ll accept my fate on this one.
@djslack shoot us an email, we’ll send you a back w/ puck and sticker.
Mine arrived (8am ET purchase):
Overall response, Meh.
@Yoda_Daenerys I’ve been considering one of those portable shower thingies for camping & summertime sporting events, but not for $50 Amazon price nor even on $30 Woot.
/giphy jelli
@compunaut i can’t recall how much they went for here, but honestly, i don’t think it was one of the items that tempted me, even though most do, even with lack of need…
First Fuko bag, midnight catch.
2.7lbs shipped.
Texas bag o’ air
Meh Bag
Meh Sticker
Meh Puck
A Krusty the Clown keychain (fitting!)
A PullBack Soft Dart Gun (with three(3) darts)
A Hello Kitty tablet -
The Hello Kitty tablet seems to work just fine, but it’s slightly dirty (the screen protector is still on it though). Booting the device up reveals that the system was set in Espanol, and that there is a left-over g-mail account login still on it. (I’ll reset the system before I connect it to my home network).
…and a 2Pac shotglass, with a likeness of 2Pac on the bottom
Thanks Meh!
First bag ever…meh!
The android tablet was actually a sweet pull, I’m considering replacing my 7" Nexus that currently provides the interface to my kegbot. The display is larger but crappier, camera also is meh, but bigger display!
Got mine today. Midnight batch, 1.9lbs. Contents were:
2 blow up donut coozie things
Returned Martian Notifier watch (RMA label says it wouldn’t sync)
CX-10C (score!)
meh puck
meh sticker
meh bag
meh socks
Thanks meh, took a meh day and made it better!
Mine Meh fuku arrived today. Picture ain’t possible, but I got
1 fuku bag
1 meh. sticker
1 meh puck (can’t tell if it’s a good puck yet)
1 Star Wars ruler
1 Who decka cardz
1 gun (not real, we think)
1 Meep x2 tablet for kiddos
Pkg online said 3.3 pounds, but I think it was actually heavier (Meep). The ruler & Meep will be presents, but the reviews of the Meep on Amazon are enough of a caution that I’m passing it on to my great niece’s parents saying that they may want to check it out first themselves. (Maddy has access to a Kindle, so this would be mainly for games & fun.) And I think fun it will be.
My midnight Fuko arrived today, weighing the stated 3.3 pounds, despite evidence that it had been opened and re-taped. At first I was dejected that it arrived too late for my birthday, but upon opening it, I gave thanks to the Smartpost Gods for the delay. Next stop – Disappointmentville: Population - Me.
Eragon lunch box (not a Supernatural box as I first thought)
Who? playing cards (not Doctor Who)
NuVision tablet (refurbished, not currently working)
6 deflated bags of Texas air (which explains the next item)
1 broken wine glass, which sharded all over the box, my car and my apartment
1 glass-encrusted Meh bag with Meh sticker and Meh puck
@Trillian happy unbirthday to you…hoping Christams is better !
My 4.6 lb./4pm Fuko arrived a day early. The thrill of anticipation quickly turned to disappointment at the reveal.
Meh items: bag/puck/sticker (I actually love all of these.)
Six-pack of light bulbs (Have no use for)
Star Wars ruler and figurine (Not a SW fan, would have LOVED anything Alien though.)
Inflatable owl (Was happy until I inflated it and saw how hideous it was.)
Thanks for the roller coaster ride, Meh! Will happily await for the next chance to buy a ticket.
My 2.6-pound fuko arrived this afternoon. I bought it at midnight, because the thought of a 7 o’clock in the morning confuses and frightens me.
The extra battery pack will come in handy; I use those Duracell jobbies a lot more than I thought I would. Oh, and thanks for reminding me not to smoke, meh. That moustache was an exercise in perseverance.
Purchased at midnight, 2.7lbs:
• Red Fuko bag
• Meh squishy hockey puck
• Meh sticker
• PB ‘n’ J spreader
• Package Oriental Trading 3-D puzzle cube
• 2PAC shot glass (why was this even made?)
• New/pre-refurbished RCA 7” Tablet PC with High Definition TV
• Several bags of Texas air (not pictured)
Well, I’ve been wanting a TV and a tablet. Looks like I scored a 2 in 1.
So, curious as to what the “Who?” playing cards were all about, I opened it up.
Short answer- the suits are all celebrities.
http://www.kardify.com/2013/03/mr-and-mrs-who-playing-cards.html
@hanzov69 well… Those are hideous. Anything that has Kanye as the king is trash.
I received:
@finalremix We now have their secret for all the broken crap - meh probably runs a garbage truck electronic gadget disposal business and we are the dump. Smart though - they get paid twice - once to take the broken crap and once for us to take it LOL. So @shawn how close is that guess?
@Kidsandliz not close. if we could find a way to make money selling fukobukuros wouldn’t we just sell them all the time?
@shawn All the time? Of course not. You need to make them “special by their rarity” to make us flock to your site and then buy the “lottery ticket” where we might get one that has something in it other than broken stuff and dollar store items (grin)…
Ok my fuko (8am 2.4lb) has:
THANKS MEH!
(according to amazon the barbie item is
"Part of the Barbie Porcelain Hinged Box Collectors series" lol)
Mine arrived today!
All in all, fairly meh, but somewhat useful and pretty entertaining. So meh but not too meh! Thanks Meh!
Got mine yesterday. It was an 8am Fuko, so it’s not a real Fuko. I got:
I AM LORD MEH! I WILL CONQUER THE GALAXY!! Or at least I will, once I get something for this awful heartburn. Oy!
@awk
@awk Now get him to co-star in an Irk video and you could win drama awards. That’s genius.
@awk It’s Prince Xixor dude
I got the same SW figurine. According to the attached tag, it’s Prince Xizor of the Falleen. He’s a pretty gnarly dude actually.
Got my fuku! Fuku bag, meh sticker, meh puck, magnifying glass, Arwen toy from Burger King, infatable Ice Cream Cone, Mediocore Socks (!), and a refurb pair of Power Beats by Dre.
The random fun bag of excitement arrived!
Red Bag
Meh sticker
Meh stress puck
Plastic bread looking thingy
Buzz light year spinny thing. (Weird because the gif selected for the shipping thread message when my package gained a pound included woody.)
Piranha sunglasses
Nabi Square HD camera set.
THANKS!
@bradyson hey looks like your Nani Square HD camera never open…mine was jumbled up and parts falling out so I am not even sure it works
@AttyVette hopefully both of ours work. Busy weekend, but I’ll try to see if mine works next week. Good luck!
Mine was lackluster as well. Still funny, but meh. There was a Hello Kitty used tablet with boogers on it or something, but my son can’t get past the lock code and I need to reset it. Anyone have any ideas? Also I washed off the boogers. Or whatever.
@SHOVAR Have to do a hard reset on it.
Power it off, then press and hold the power and volume up buttons for a few seconds.
It should bring up the reset menu, use the volume buttons to scroll up/down and power to select. Select “wipe data/factory reset”. It will ask you to confirm, press power button to confirm and continue. “Then select reboot system now”
My Fuko bag was a mixed bag of meh items, huge success!
I received:
Also, as I predicted, it arrived two days earlier than FedEx predicted. @jbartus 1 - FedEx 0
@jbartus stupid imgur app deleted the image so… here we go:
Midnight deal 13.1 lbs
Plastic Hamburger Bun top
Memphis Belle Trash Can
Pokemon Wall Graffix
Squatty Potty! Girlfriend has been asking for one of these, how the heck to they know, do they use spies?
Belding Large Duffel Bag - Pretty nice can certainly use this or donate to college student nephew
That awesome moment when your Fuko shows out for delivery a day early, then the postman comes and brings you nada. Even jokes to you about, “what, no packages today?!” and you’re all THE HECK YOU SAY?! grrr
my thread goes from official 2 un-official & back 2 official maybe u should have just left it @ official k thx
@fuko nah.
Hi everyone, this is actually my first post here. Managed to snag a Fuko and it arrived yesterday. I got:
Overall, pretty good! I’ll probably give the walkie-talkies to my parents because they like camping and going to festivals so they’ll probably get some use out of them. Mainly I’m just curious how Meh knew that I used to do a killer Napoleon Dynamite impression…
@Neghtasro
@Neghtasro Sometimes the fuko items are way, way past creepy. I’d say you got off easy. It could have been a five foot tall devil drum or an enormous ceramic rooster. Or it could have been metal letters that spell ‘IRK’, 50" wide and 6" deep. Keep trying, it gets crazier.
ETA was today - Friday Sept 30th for my Midnight fuko.
Meh/FedEx/USPS 3lbs on Wed at 9:21am with Meh fuko Bag, Sticker and Stress Puck!
GoJo Headset.
WHO? playing cards.
Pink iPhone 5 case.
“trio” STEALTH G2 8" Android tablet - only a few finger prints and seems to work fine. Photo taken with the little thing. trio doesnt show a G2 on site so I feel pretty special!
Thanks Meh!
@fjp999 I also got a Stealth Trio Tablet (7" hence probably older-2012). Mine had fingerprints and someones e-mail in it, but works. Amazon selling it got $ 84 with 46% giving it a poor rating. But for $5-its a bargain.
@Felton10 Agreed on the great $5 bargain!
Have not played with an Android (being stuck in the Apple world) for many a year. Looks like mine was reset.
Will see what Google Play Store has over Apple Store.

Not bad for my first fuko!
My 3.7 lb 8:00 AM fuko arrived a little while ago, and here’s what I found inside:
Thanks for the disappointment Meh
@blkxltng There was also a Meh sticker in there. Didn’t find it until later
@blkxltng Want to trade the motorcycle cup holder for something?
@Neech depends on what “something” is
@blkxltng Here’s what I got, take your pick. Barbie slippers, audio technica earbuds, animal shower curtain hooks, Napoleon Dynamite photo album, meh bag, sticker and hockey puck, Blow up flamingo and duck.
@Neech well the earbuds look kinda nice
@blkxltng I’ll open them when I get home and see if they work. They are useless to me.
@Neech cool cool
@blkxltng As is typical they only work sometimes.
@Neech Well thats still worth more to me than a motorcycle cup holder lol
@blkxltng Hit me up at neechey at gmail dot com and we can go from there.
So Happy!
-Suitcase Turntable
-chicken thermometer
-meh sticker
-meh soft puck
-?interesting ceramic polka dot lady
@genericcat That polka dot lady… what’s up with the metal screw thing coming out of her hat? Is she a hanging pendant light bulb, or a candle holder, or…?
@Bandrik No idea what it is. I was hoping someone would see it and tell me. It does have a silver screw top which looks rather lamp-like but there aren’t any other parts, and the bottom is solid (no place to thread a cord through.) So, candle holder is the best guess so far.
I received,
*Haier 9" tablet (works but slow as f0ck and you can’t even click on some icons or the letters don’t work on the keyboard)
*2 decks of crappy playing cards
*Meh bag, Meh sticker and puck
*Monkey lunch bag by Paul Frank
*Pony book or something for a girl
Pretty craptastic
4 pm VMP “special” for me.
All in all, very mediocre! Just like me! Which is exactly why I got this thing at 4 pm. Thanks, knivesandspeakerdocks.com!
0800 grab. Initial weight 2.2 and updated to 23.1 #.
The contents:
No complaints here. Vac is a pretty beat up/dirty return dated 8/15./16. Marked “works intermittently” which may work out since I vacuum intermittently.
The postal service decided to hold mine in whatever terrible limbo they keep their packages. I’ll get it soon and report. 3.3 lbs. It’s the first thing I’ve bought from Meh. I expect nothing.
Follow up from my earlier post. I found out why my Fuko box was held back from the delivery route. Apparently it was leaking. LEAKING. What the actual…??
Photos because pics or it didn’t happen:
Sorry Aladdin, Jasmine & Genie, no “whole new world” for you my friends
The rest of the items were mostly dry:
I have no idea what this is supposed to be used for (I have already Google’d it, I’ll pass it along to my husband most likely), but this couldn’t have been more random if it tried…
oh, and
Thanks, Meh from this Kickstarter backer and VIP Fuko-bag snagger.
Well, someone knows I struggle opening boxes, because my box came pre-opened! Although I would never complain about the awesome stuff I got, I am definitely wondering what is missing/taken from the box. With that said…
1 Awesome Meh Bag
1 Incredible meh sticker
1 Amazing hockey puck (this was the one thing I wanted more than anything)
1 American flag mat
1 Inflatable turtle
1 Mohu OTA channel guide thingy
1 Giant Spiderman wall poster
Looks like my friend and his family are going to get a really awesome package from me next week. They are obsessed with turtles, the 7 YO loves Spiderman, and they currently do not have cable.
I got the same box as coffee pot guy above. Exactly. I was super excited at its heft after looking through some of these pictures. I will know better for next time not to do that… if there IS a next time. First Fuko ever!
Got mine:
shipped to me by Meh)
Generally, meh
It’s here! And it is glorious.
http://imgur.com/a/zgVUc
Thanks meh! This was a ton of fun!
Got my 11pm 34lb fuko in today!
Meh bag, sticker, and stress puck.
PHB collection werewolf
Who? Playing cards
SpongeBob lcd watch
Star Wars ruler
Alien wall relief
And a polystone treasure chest! Badly broken sadly
Overall a decidedly meh experience. 5/10
High fives all around!
@Cody2003 It’s not broken, it’s been “antiqued!” Only increases the value.
@DaveInSoCal I’m not gonna lie, there’s a part of me that wants to put a fog machine and spotlight inside. Maybe some omenous music. Just to see who asks questions.
@Cody2003
@sammydog01 Great way to start a house fire!
mine arrived today
4 reserve bags of Texas air
1 Fuko bag
1 meh sticker
1 meh "puck"
1 Miller Lite baseball cap (new)
1 Dalmatian (inflatable)
1 toast decostamp (good morning!)
1 Rocky Mountain knife w/ bonus fire starter (flint)
1 Star Wars figure (Wedge Antilles), blaster intact.!
enter image description here
you get what you pay for. I’d say this was worth $5
Texas air/fuko bag/sticker/puck
inflatable ice cream cone
triangle
animal cracker shower hooks
star wars ruler
7" rca tablet
My first one on my birthday and I got:
Two burgers (what are they?)
Audio technica earbuds
Inflatable monkey
Meh puck
Disney princess watch
Nice for a first haul!
@riaheather
Hmm, wonder what it could be…
Oooo, my favorite, a(n):
-bag/sticker/puck combo meal
-piranha sunglasses
-alien clock toy thing from 1993*
-“The Office” cup mug, with apparently non-detachable handle
Oh, and this thing, which is apparently some sort of a floor cleaning device. Are you trying to say something about the state of my floors, Meh? Cause, you know, spot on if you are.
So, overall, a good get.
*I love seeing these are the types of things. The journey this junk must’ve taken to make it here intrigues me to no end.
Edit: aww the photos got all turned. I guess just tilt your head a bit.
@nogoodwithnames good haul…your u got a good meh bag!
Let’s see what we got here…
Meh bag, hockey puck, & sticker
Really shitty “cell phone headsets” that are actually just rounded sticks with suction cups attached to the ends
Deck of cards
Toy dart gun
Fully-functional Haier 9-inch tablet sold on Meh for $33. Sweet!
Nothing special here, just move along:
Opened to reveal:
Legit!
Texas air (reminds me of Austin. sigh)
A mystery item!
Another mystery item!
A scary clown JUMBO Pez dispenser!
Jumbo sized “Trump” cards.
Is that an RCA DAA730R? Could it be? It could!
And the real prize, the meh fuko bag.
Go bananas!
A monkey purse!
A tablet!
An official Pez back, scary clown edition!
More exclamation points!!!
My son’s birthday is tomorrow, the 1st, and the cards will be his. And the hanging Go Bananas inflatable.
He wants the tablet, but it overheats pretty fast, and the registration is off between audio and video but it works. I’ll try to make it go for him.
No crockpot? Didn’t they know I’d fumble the lid on my old one the day after they shipped this?
Yes, in the bag, the bag I’ll sneak around with until it falls to pieces, was a meh. sticker and the foam hockey puck.
My niece is too old for the purse. Maybe a carrying case for the tablet? A lunch bag for my son?
@excarnate /back/bank/ but I only get one edit. Am I happy? My wife only frowned a little and took half the things for our son’s birthday. I get to keep the meh. bag and sticker. FTW!
Wow this FUKU lives up to its name…MEH crap all around!
Meh sticker: I really appreciate that it doesn’t say meh.com. Advertising the viewer has to work for!
Meh puck: good squeezing for my bad tendon.
Inflatable banana: the dog is petrified of it. It also says it’s a ‘men’s banana’ on the back of the package. I should get a pic of that.
Cool bag: one can ever have too many.
Star Wars ruler: I was thinking ‘wow, Star Wars merch- meh must be doing alright to just give Star Wars stuff away!’. Then my son picked it up and said ‘Eewwwe an Episode 1 Star Wars ruler! That’s Amydala’s ship on it’.
A Zip Stick: all in one phone charger, flashlight and personal alarm. It’s a natty little device that I will be keeping in my bag. It added 20% on to my phone quite quickly. And the alarm is nice and irritating.
Piece de resistance- Ion portable record player. I got the less spiffy version years ago to transfer records onto my computer. I might start listening to records again on this though. Very cool!
Thanks for a fun afternoon, Meh!
First Fuko. Expected disappointment. It delivered… and how!!
1x Tinkertoy cylinder half full of tinker toys and other toys

1x Adventure Time Finn backpack
1x Aliens watch
1x Pepperoni Pizza frisbee
1x Vicks Pediatric Cool Mist Humidifier
The humidifier is especially welcomed as ours is getting a little dingy. The Finn backpack is being worn by my son as we speak!
Thanks Meh!!!

Silly me, i also got a meh sticker and puck. They were hiding in the bag!
My 13 lb midnight fuko arrived yesterday.
Chef Pals chicken thermometer
Pogo portable charger 850 mAh
meh sticker
meh puck
meh bag
And-
Blendtec Classic 475- seems new but I haven’t tested it yet
@mehla
I got the same as you only without the thermometer. I got a cap gun instead. The blentec that I received appears to be brand new. I fired it up last night and it worked beautifully.
I didn’t get a Fuko.
I was pretending that I can play Fantasy Football.
But then:
@f00l
(To be continued …)
Dafuq???
@f00l
@f00l
(To be continued. …)
@f00l the suspense!
So who packed and shipped JR to me anyway?
@f00l
@f00l
@f00l
(To be continued …)
![Fuko!][1]
Between the lantern and princess watch, I’ll be set for the next power outage.
[1]:
@norman8 your DOH!nuts are not inflated…
@thismyusername I need to finish the pool first.
Calling Sherlock. I’ll even settle for Dr Watson.
@f00l
@f00l
(To be continued…)
I didn’t realize that these threads existed and didn’t post my last Fuko, which included a full size broken dyson vacuum, meh sunglasses, a coozie, dr Seuss birthday book, stack of popcorn scratch and sniff stickers, and small Dracula figurine.
This time around I received a witch costume, a business leather purse, a napoleon dynamite photo album and a credit card sized phone charger juice pack thing which so far seems to work.
@vinuash knice two no moar then reghulars geet theis
I received:
@t3hn4t3 pics of dog in costume?
@thismyusername fail on my part. totally forgot. one part of the costume looked like a yarmulke. i put it on my other dog’s head and made her go outside with it on.
@thismyusername I lied, wife took one.
So these things appeared, addressed to me
@f00l
@f00l
@f00l
@f00l
@f00l clearly they have started outsourcing the fuko shipping to amazon.
To sum up:
A FauxFuko
Let me tell you, Texas Air is good stuff.
@f00l
@f00l
@f00l you better cherish those Texas air bags.
@f00l
But wait. Those boxes. Do they come with instructions? Can I figure this out?
Hmmm
Lemme try.
I think I came up with something.
@f00l
This was not a Fuko. I did not succeed in ordering a Fuko.
AFAIK, no Texas Air was harmed in the creation, packaging, shipping, opening, or cherishing of this FauxFuko.
Meh received no money for this FauxFuko.
Many Chocolate Truffles bravely and willingly sacrificed their yummy existence in order than this FauxFuko might exist.
“Into the Valley of Death rode the 600!”
/image chocolate truffle
@f00l wow, nice swag for an honorable aMeh.rican, or Meh.xican Meh.tizen.
@f00l You got the good stuff - bag, sticker, puck…that is what most people are netting once you discount the broken things and dollar store things. : ) And now you have so much tx air and boxes you can send a handful of us cool stuff and it won’t even arrive broken LOL
@f00l but
theyMeh. must really think u rspecial sauceawesome sauce@Yoda_Daenerys
B R I B E R Y
No details are available. Hush hush.
Only a lot for expensive than a real. Fuko. Just Sayin’.
I didn’t realize posting bag contents here was a thing, so I sadly have no pictures. My box was a hair over 6lbs.
The joy I will get from torturing my coworker with the one doll over the course of the next month before he inevitably makes it vanish forever is more than worth the price and the socks are rather comfortable. I think my boss has absconded with Xizor, though I am sure he’ll show up eventually and the starfish had a short, glorious life being used as gigantic shuriken during a nerf raid. I am still confused by the chips maker set, but since it involves cooking I am sure to have minor burns in my future when I decide to be brave enough to try and figure it out.
I have MAJOR Fukobukuro envy. I wasn’t fast enough. But I have since upgraded my internet connection speed.
The fuko will be MINE!! Mwah ha ha ha!!! {Evil villain laugh ^tm}>
@mjobaker
So they all believed. All of them. Once.
You do know it’s worthless shit, mostly straight to Goodwill, right?
That’s why my FauxFuko was so expensive. I pay them in chocolate to leave all the crap out of the box.
You know when everyone gets picked for a game at gym and your the last kid to be picked? That totally sucks right. Well, I got locked out of the fukobukuro gym! Hell you moved the fricken school on me! How often is fukobukuro offered? Congrats to all the lucky people
@Candiedisilvio1 At this point it is offered more frequently than the fufU…
1 x Prince Xizor Vinyl Doll (Star Wars)
1 x meh. hockey puck
1 x meh. sticker
1 x those hummingbird feeders
1 x blow up 1000lb carnival style dumbbell
1 x Resident Evil Wall Clings
A fuko. A disappointment. A port-o-let cavalcade of broken dreams.
Finally got down to the Post Office to get my 12:00:15, 2.9lb Fuko. (it had been there for 4 days, I was dying with curiosity!) As the postie handed it to me, she said “It rattles. Hope nothing is broken.” In my mind, I saw shattered glass, but told her “It’s supposed to sound like that! It’s a meh package. Look at the return address!” She did and laughed!
I got out to the car and opened it and found the following:
◉ Move the Ball game (source of rattle!)
◉ Napoleon Dynamite photo book
◉ iWorld 3 port USB Battery Pack
◉ Monkey purse
◉ Inflatable Nemo
◉ Meh bag, hockey puck and sticker
Meh, you did it again. I will never complain about ‘not getting the good stuff’ because it’s always good stuff! The meh hockey puck is already in the freezer, it may get accidentally dropped onto the ice this winter during a game! And nothing weird to explain when I went through customs!
Thanks, Meh!
@transplant did not know you freeze hockey pucks
@Kidsandliz Yes, pucks are frozen before use, reduces the bouncing.
Fuko… My First one.
1 Bag
1 Harmony Remote Touch
1 set of XY trackits
1 Episode 1 Pencil Pouch
1 Pirahanna Sunglasses
1 Meh Sticker
1 Meh Face
1 Bag
2 Air
Thanks!!!
@mdrcoast I love my Harmony Touch. Congrats!
First time fukobukuro…uh…“winner”?
fukobukuro received Thursday:
Meh Puck
Meh Sticker
Meh bag
2Pac shot glass
PB&J spreader
Pair of Gojo Hands free headsets
Haier 9" Tablet (previously owned with a bunch of fingerprints but in good shape, no noticeable physical damage, initially thought to be DOA because…I tried charging overnight with the supplied charger…didn’t work…tried a mini usb phone charger…didn’t work…before i thought i’d disassemble it for gits and shiggles, i tried a portable battery pack i had laying around and lo and behold it started taking a charge. it does take a long time to fully charge but now the phone charger works on it. Not quite sure why it didn’t before but, meh…The supplied charger works intermittently at best…once fully charged the tablet started up and worked just fine)
All is good in my book.
Thanks, Meh.
Fuko came in the day before I left town, so I completely forgot about posting and now I can’t take pictures. But everything but one* has already been posted in this thread.
*And an ice cream mix-in soft serve thingie that will come in handy at my company’s Christmas gift exchange.
@mitzoe better make sure it isn’t broken first
My 7.6 lb Fuko contained:
The Bem works well and now I can stream stuff in bed with better audio. My niblings will have lots of fun with the rest. Thanks Meh!!
Here’s the inflated guitar for the curious:
Got these yesterday… nice… for a first Fuko
FUKO bag
Meh hockey puck
Meh sticker
Funny looking soap pump
Star Wars Ruler (only inches no cm)
RCA 7 inch Tablet TV
Old 5 inch photo album
the RCA tablet required a security code to login. Had to reset
@nmadhuusa obviously a star wars ruler is imperial units only.
@nmadhuusa what’s the soap pump look like?
@thismyusername I am sure his lightsaber will be graduated in years!
@nmadhuusa That’s so cute! It also explains the “ceramic polka dot lady” someone else got.
Sorry, no pic.
7.6lb 8am fuko received Saturday
-16 bags of Texas air
-Bride and groom clock
-Porcelain burger-shaped salt and pepper shakers
-Designer purse from some designer guy (wife quickly claimed it)
-Kid’s plastic golf set (with driver kindly folded in half to fit in the box)
-Men bag/sticker/puck
-Inflateable Toast
-VMP T-Shirt
-CX-10C Quad Copter
-Sweet Looking Bulldog Mug
-Some Random Trinket
-Men bag/sticker/puck
@gwaki love those shirts!
I know I took pictures, but they don’t seem to be on my phone. Got a “remorse” hair dryer, monkey backpack, inflatable turtle, and bag/sticker/puck. Granddaughter was looking forward to playing with the box, and the 26 bags of Texas air.
huh. post above also has “bag/sticker/puck” in the same order. totally coincidental since I hadn’t refreshed the page. or was i somehow influenced?
Everybody is getting theirs in, and mine is still “processing”.
@clonetek They’re saving the
bestworst for last!(Feel free to blame @ignorant for that.)
@clonetek it could be
worsethe same:@narfcake thats what I’m afraid of!!! Especially since they sent me this dirty biohazard of a rug last time!
Super late on the reply here, but here’s the haul. Got the requisite sticker, bag, and puck. Plus a few bits of nonsense that the kids liked. At first I thought we’d gotten a Fuku, but nope:
Last, was a broken glass bird feeder with no external indication that it was broken. Opening the box spewed tiny shards of glass all over the house. Thanks, meh!
Hey there you motherfucking Mehicans (still the preferred demonym among the meh cognoscenti)! Bazillionth time listener, bazillionth time poster. (See what I did there?)
Look, I’ve failed to post multiple fuku/fuko/fucko et al. (goat prize, etc.) hauls. Fucking sue, me why don’t you? And then there was that time I promised (sort of, not really actually; I suggested the possibility) to sponsor some kind of contest to get rid of some of the worthless shit meh sent me. I am a total fucking failure. But you’re probably happy about that–and if you aren’t you should be; I mean, goddamnit, what does it take to please you people?–because I’m verbose and foul-mouthed and, if we’re totally honest, more than a little creepy. Hence the reason I like this place. It is, like I am, a celebration of mediocrity, turpitude, incompetence and the utter lack of greatness and success (yeah, meh even fails to always fail, IMNSFHO).
A more honorable man might look meh deeply in the eyes and say, “Hey girl, I know I let you down, but I promise I’ll do better. I’m gonna be there for you, baby. I’m turning over a new leaf. You can count on me.” Jesus, am I Ryan Gosling in your wet dreams? No, no I am not. I am a loser. I have nothing to offer. Nothing to say (ha, and yet all of these words). I will likely fail you the next time and the next time, etc. (too much to keep typing the “nexts”). But I’m here now. That’s all you gonna get.
And all of that is just a bad excuse for the mediocrity of what follows. Yeah, again, all of those words. And was it worth it? Probably not for you, but I had fun. I got mine, you get yours, meh.
Got home to this (last Thursday). Who fucking does this? What the fuck is the matter with you, postal people? What if my box contained something of actual value and fell? Fuckers.
The haul:
Meh. You’ve sent me junkier junk.
The breakdown:
Pepsi serving tray?
Who (pre-meh) thought this would be a good idea? Kinda looks like a bottle cap, so that’s almost cute. It’s in good, new condition if I ever thought I wanted to use this shitty-looking thing.
With Canada Dry Ginger Ale can (sorry, the wiffy just made banana bread, so all out of nanners) for scale. Nominal irony.
With fly swatter and wife’s foot in the background for I don’t know why.
Pop fly swatter pack
Ha. Pop fly. I just got that. Anyway, yeah, We’ll actually use these. They’re well built. They’ll kill things. And they look cool. Not bad, meh, not bad. Worth the five bucks, IMO. But we all know I’m easy.
They even seem to have this feature (?) that allows the splat area to be extended and/or made floppier. Who the fuck knows? But it’s deliberate. And the head extends and snaps into the notches. Weird as fuck–because I don’t see actual value.
Little Miss Sunshine rug
I thought for more than a few seconds of bringing it in to the office. But why? And where else? This will be regifted to some
unluckysapperson. Probably together with the Pepsi tray, similarly useless and therefore good for giving away.Mr Coffee Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker
I was simultaneously excited and nervous about this. We could use a new coffee maker. I was right to be nervous. It seems to be otherwise functional, but it leaks like hell and we haven’t been able to figure out how to make it stop. Damnit. Haven’t given up yet, but it’s probably already been more trouble than it’s worth. Fuko you, meh. Sigh. And did I say damnit? Because damnit.
Texas Air
One bag. It seems like I should feel ripped off that I only got one. But I can get my own damned Texas air. You all may go to hell, but I’m already in Texas. So same difference, right, Davy?
fukobukuro bag
A genuine collector’s item. Or hoarder’s artifact. IOW a worthless piece of shit that I will greedily hang on to for no good reason and it’ll make my wife like me a little less (but she still loves me and she likes me a lot; and yet, what a silly thing to waste my like capital on).
Pictured with
sneakily-hidden meh stress puck
and
sneakily-hidden meh puffy sticker
(because they seem like a matched set)
Other side of the puck
I don’t know if anyone else has tried this, but the puck slides really well. Kind of impressive in a low expectations sort of way. The wife enjoyed herself with it. Goes well with (and creates another use for) the swatters. She was, btw, accidentally wearing the meh shirt. Because we have lots of meh shirts and it only makes sense to wear them IRL. I have slow-motion video of her flipping the puck like a pancake. She caught it twice and I don’t think I captured either triumph. So I’ve got that going for me. I may try to figure out how to post it, if anyone cares.
In summary, appropriately meh, shitty junk. I sure wish that damned coffee maker worked. As it is, I’d be better off without it. It is a fuko. What kind of fucking moron pays for an unlucky bag anyway? Who pays to take someone else’s trash? I do. I haven’t decided if I’m proud of that or not. But I will cherish my more meh mehmorabilia, because I’m sick like that.
@joelmw Post more dammit!
Glad to see the pic here.
@joelmw
So, wut u tink?
@Hollboll?
@joelmw
Not to mention marginally unattractive
@compunaut What you talkin’ about “marginally”? Get that weak shit outta here. I almost included “wholly unattractive” in the first place.
@f00l I think you lost me.
@joelmw
Am thinking @Hollboll sent you just about all the ingredients.
Now all you need is a big pot and a fire.
@f00l Ah. That actually does make sense. I use as my excuse an increasing despair about the condition and internal character of humanity–Americans most especially.
@joelmw
Chin up OK.
It’s all appeared hopeless, from every possibly civilized or good-hearted POV, so many times.
And, assuming we survive, think of the possibilities for humor!
/giphy toil and trouble
My Fuk showed up a couple days early. First time ever Smartpost was AHEAD of schedule. By the time it arrived I had already left town for a weekend for a short little birthday weekend vacay.
I arrived home last night and found it waiting for me.
Contents:
Black & Decker Fruit and Veggie Juicer (open box, no instuctions, appears to be new/unused)
Alien wall relief
Vinyl pool toy 120cm inflatable donut.
Meh sticker, hockey puck and bag.
Bag of Fuk. Thanks for the kicks, Meh!
I was exhausted from my weekend away and didn’t take a pic. Maybe tonight, but it’s all stuff everyone else has posted already.
I’m offering the juicer for trade. Any takers, let me know what you have in kind.
@ruouttaurmind
@thismyusername Done! I’ll take that trade!
That’s a fine looking cake, and actually, I didn’t get any cake this year.
1 x 9" Haier Android Tablet (Works, still had last owners google account on it. I wiped it and it’s ready for the garage sale!)
1 x Angry Bird Plush
1 x Meh Bag
1 x Meh Face Stress Puck
1 x Meh Sticker
1 x Napoleon Dynomite notepad (Lucky!)
1 x Who? Playing Cards
1 x Coors Light Bottle Opener Necklace (um…you don’t need one of these for Coors Light bottles)
Thanks!
I got mine last week- can’t be fucked to take a photo because I’m sick, and there wasn’t anything particularly photo worthy. I got:
1 x Eragon playing cards
2 x Edward Scissorhands mini photo albums
1 x inflatable hippie guitar (Groovy Baby)
1 x TENS unit, untested as of yet.
1 x meh sticker
1 x meh cat toy (puck style)
1 x red fukomawhatsit bag.
Edit: I almost forgot the shitload of Texas air. The box was large and mostly empty except for that bounty of breathable(?) goodness.
Thanks, Meh. I am appropriately underwhelmed.
@Pony
@Pony Feel better!
No picture, opened at the office last Thursday and I got too excited to take one before doling out Meh-smas cheer to all of my co-workers.
6 x Texas Air(popped loudly at work to snap co-workers out of their post-lunch doldrums)
1 x Meh Bag(red)
1 x Meh puck(black, gifted to most stressed co-worker)
1 x Meh sticker(final destination as yet undecided)
1 x Chicken Thermometer(gifted to co-worker who will keep at desk and set off at odd times to liven the place up)
1 x Angry Bird Plush(red, wearing a beanie for some reason… gifted to co-worker with dog that will enjoy the toy)
1 x USB Hubman(given to wife to help decorate her new office)
And the winner of the day:
1 x Chromebook 2 in perfect working order. Looks like it’s got a couple of hotspots in the screen but you can’t see those 95% of the time. Perfect interneting computer!
I meh-ly hate you all. I’m still meh bagless. Fuko-less. No love for Alabama. Congrats to all. The next Fuko is mine!!! Ir mehbe not. Meh
@sarahsandroid
@thismyusername that is pretty!
7 x Texas Air
1 x Meh bag (red)
1 x Meh puck (squishy)
1 x Meh sticker
1 x Inflatable Starfish pool toy
1 x Eragon playing cards (factory sealed)
1 x Eragon metal lunch box (factory sealed)
1 x Memorex MP3142 AM/FM Radio with CD Player (w/ broken latch, CD hatch stays open)
1 x Memorex MP3142 warranty information
So that hockey puck turned out to be a rather desired item. Both my 3.5 year old son and 1.5 year old daughter love that damn thing. So what I thought was a rather disappointing fuku turned into something very rewarding after seeing their enjoyment.
Can’t get a boc on the other site …so got the subscription and still can’t get one…check every day at 8…so I’m paying to be disappointed not quite the same as the potential disappointment from a fukobukuro…gah
@kathleen1966 what is the bag of crap subscription? details!
Meh:
I’m slow on posting… I had other priorities, moving, etc. All in all, very pleased with this fukobukuro
On with the reveal:
Cat’s Mouse Toy for Scale
@wronkerville “Personal Hygiene Refresher”?
BBBNIB: better be brand new in box, LOL
My Fuko shipped out, but was lost by FedEx. I hope I can get a selfie with Tom Hanks when he delivers it in a few years!
But, don’t worry about me, Holly said she’d look into getting me another shipped out.
Which in my mind, they are furiously scouring all their car ash trays, junk drawers, and recycling bins for replacement items. lol
This is what I got in my Fuko:
Oh, wait. No, it isn’t. Sorry. It was more like this:
• 1 Decorative paper lantern
• 1 set of Jamie Oliver knives
• 1 Barbie shoe box thingy
• 1 meh sticker
• 1 meh puck ( being chewed on by Agamemnon)
• 1 Hyper Disc
• 9 martini plates – WHICH ARE TOTALLY DEFECTIVE! I TRIED TO POUR A MARTINI INTO ONE AND IT ENDED UP ALL OVER THE FLOOR!!!
@rv617 Nice knives!
@sammydog01 Why, thank you!
In the continuing saga of forwarded mail…
It is now 10pm here. I don’t think it is coming today. I think I will go to bed.
@castlelogical
So only after 30 hours being ‘out for delivery’ I can proudly show you…
oh.
Wait, 12 dollars!?
@castlelogical did you contact support?
@RiotDemon There may be a fee for forwarding smart post.
@sammydog01 ah, I didn’t notice it was forwarded.
@sammydog01 @RiotDemon There is, smart post is classified as 3rd class mail, and not offered as part of the free forwarding service. Learned that recently.
I had contacted support when the order was still processing, but they had told me to try to hold it for pickup or have it forwarded. I chose the latter. Live and learn, I suppose.
@castlelogical Bummer. At least you didn’t get charged a reroute fee of $50 for some object d’art they found at the thrift store.
Meh are awesome masters of awesome randomness. Where do they get this stuff?
The piles of “fuk” ed up stuff they must have in their warehouses from their closeout/reseller business they have besides meh…
/image crazy warehouse
I’ll take any of the Popeye stuff if anyone doesn’t want it. Or the broken electronics. Love tinkering. Im pretty sure thats why they called me tinker toes in high school. Triplebud at Gmail. I’ll send you my address
Got my replacement Fuko today!
Thanks @Holly
Mine arrived today after the post office sent it back to meh (possibly mail-forwarding related from my recent move).
neighborhood kids
Thanks, meh!
@HemlockTea Blast, the cord seems to be one of those weird apple cords. Into the regift box XP
Eek, okay, WAY late. I haven’t been able to get online much lately, but wanted to make sure to post this fuko since I was super psyched to open it!
