@RobinBobcat Me too! I can’t believe the day came! And so many people to thank. My parents, of course. The Academy. AA. Xenu, and Cthulhu, but just on weekends. Thumperchick should get a nod, and the guy who operates Irk. And… who am I leaving out… oh, Steve. Hi Steve.
@imzwho I believe that’s correct, my second order was canceled. I just want to make sure I get the sweet black fade bag, since the first two were shown as red only
@Pony All things considered we probably should try; consider it a duty to save others from making a terrible mistake. Thats right; we’ll take on the burden to save you all from fuko remorse…
@jandrese Yeah same here. I actually managed to get past the captcha in time… after the wait it said the server was too busy and to try again. Tried again and said sold out,
@cfg83 You know it’s a pain in the ass to always every single time camp it out on days when I know it’s coming or when I just have a gut feeling and it happens, and I miss it by a second. I never get my hopes up when that happens but for the first time it actually let me place the order and then out of nowhere it asked me to retry it and then it just cancelled the whole thing on me. Like that’s just so annoying it’s insane.
@mdjst5 I am, but I kept getting something like “are you a robot, you can’t buy … if you’re a robot” — and the green bar seduced me by scrolling three or four tortuous rounds. Earlier I also had to captcha. Well, congrats to those who got one
I’m done. Ugh. Ever since they started to break up the offerings into smaller allotments I haven’t even been close. Not sure why I waste my time.
Gotta love those that clog up the process with buying multiples…not to mention when the multiples cancel out others simply lose out on an opportunity. Here’s a sincere fuck you to those that do.
@mossygreen I’m good. It’s been awhile since I had been around and thought this could be a fun way to get back into the swing of things. After today, I think I’m gonna pass. I haven’t gotten a fuko since the switch over the circuits and multiple offerings. The fuko “thrill” died when they changed it.
Second time today I’ve opened Meh seconds before these go on sale, click buy, do the capcha and it’s gone. Roller coaster of emotions. Oh well, at least I got the singing Bluetooth elephant
I tried to get one, waited for the loading bar to stop spazzing after tapping buy and was told they were busy processing orders and to try again. Try to purchase again and am told I might be a robot.
I tried again clicked on the captcha and it still said I was a robot. Did that two times. Third time the buy button was still there and I went through the process and then it said can’t process order we don’t know what item you want to buy… what the heck bro.
Got one! Hey meh, I’m getting a new dog very soon. Send something he/she would like! Oddly the best thing I got from a bag of crap or Fukobukuro was some sort of mat that fit perfectly in Rusty’s crate. Used it for years! Which only proves, one mans crap is another mans treasure!
FFS. Can you please make one of the VMP benefits never getting that damn captcha?
First I had to prove I wasn’t a robot then it said it “wasn’t sure what I was trying to buy.” There’s one item–a FUKU! I want that one! And then sold out while the green bar thought about life for a while.
I wish I was a robot. Clicked buy it within 15 seconds (approx) made me sign in again, then processed sale, then gave error message that something went wrong, try again, then said ‘sorry, sold out’.
A robot wouldn’t feel so crushed.
Got screwed by the captcha last night, this one worked. First bag ever, can’t wait to see what ridiculous crap I get, haha
/giphy resounding-aquatic-oxygen
Took 3 minutes to load and then sold out. Agree with the statement above that if you already got one you shouldn’t be able to get another one. But that’s just me being pissy about the loading time - not sure if I wanted one filled with sunglasses, pineapple mugs and all the other crap they have been trying to sell and can’t get rid of.
Moreover, why are you wasting 30 minutes on this? Put it up for a max of 5 minutes (because it’s gone in under 2) and then put something else up to close out the 'thon. Watching a sold out counter click down for 25 minutes is 1) boring 2) annoying when you tried and failed to get a single fuku.
Why can’t I use auto-fill on the order screen? Unless I’m mistaken, this is still America and I should be able to expedite the process of trading my money for goods and services.
Can we get a little consistency on the reCaptchas? Either everyone should have to tap on parts of a picture or no one should. None of this wishy-washy bullshit.
Fifth time missing out on a fuko bag. Winner winner chicken dinner.
@Thumperchick I’ve got all my info saved… I’ve bought stuff from you folks for a while now, and yet, every time (no matter what) I have to go through some 3 or 4 different reCaptchas, every, single, time.
@dkaine The ReCaptchas will ReSet if you hammer on them like a crazed monkey. It’s to prevent bots. And yes, you get them no matter what when the Fukos come up. Again, to prevent bots.
Can I call “bath” on one of the cancelled fukos from the guys that decided to try and order multiples. I’d be all over that action as a consolation prize for a fucked up day.
@therealjrn Actually, no. I was serious. Just cancelled my shirt order, VMP, and daily notifications. Today was a massive let-down, not gonna let emotions like that run my life.
I enjoyed the 1435 day ride, but many of the things that kept me intrigued and dedicated are just no longer present.
I clicked buy, unlike the other times it continued to fill green over and over for about 30 seconds… then had an error. It allowed me to try again, heck, it encouraged me to… and then this…
Do those that bought two… fully understanding that their 2nd orders would then be cancelled understand that you are taking away opportunities for other Meh-fam to get one? It is not like they will just put them on MorningSave later.
@todaresq it’s not like Meh’s going to do anything about it other than cancel their orders, so there’s no incentive for them not to do it. And it means a lot of the “Meh-fam” get screwed but a lot of the responses I see boil down to either “oops, too bad” or “fygm.”
@norman8 Bold strategy calling that a “win”. But if you get stuck with multiple orders, yea, they gonna knock that fucking shit off and give you one. One disappointment is enough, just ask my father.
@Thumperchick@thismyusername@studerc Thanks for clarifying - I’ve now lost my sense of loss from losing the 2nd, 3rd and 4th fuko posting and will put this info to good use for future meh-rathons. Now only one disappointment remains - and I can’t wait!
Not only did I get one, despite only popping in sporadically, I am getting the bag that looks like it was partially dipped into a large oil slick! Woohoo!
I wish you guys had a system of where if it’s in your “cart” that’s your guarantee to have it for like 3 minutes while you fill out the dang captcha- like ticket sales. Missed out on this one last night bc the stupid captcha wouldn’t load.
I was driving during the first two, and I fell asleep minutes before the last one I guess I lacked the dishonor to veer my car into a ditch in order to waste $5, and lacked the stamina to care
Feel free to take some extra time filling these with decent crap, meh! No expectations, of course, but here’s hoping you at least beat out the quality of the Woot BOC’s! Last time, at least for me, Woot won by a considerable margin.
@mfladd That’s what I was afraid of, but nonetheless, I had to put it out there! Woot sank so low after Amazon that I almost gave up on their BOC’s, Meh came along with some GREAT Fuko/Fuku’s initially, but lately things seem to have flip-flopped! With 53 BOC’s, I have been able to track the quality of things pretty well over the years.
@skbruck also, the special brand of disappointment that the fuko brings is best when it’s allowed to age in the warehouse for a week or two before being loaded onto the smartpost snailmobile.
@djslack Yeah I bet they are letting it age there so they have time to dump the rest of the trashier stuff that didn’t sell the second time around in the mehrathon that even morningsave customers wouldn’t choose to buy. (grin)
@skbruck The specs post for each product thread always has an estimated delivery date. If you miss it there, it’s also on your orders page.
Really though, these will ship when we have time to cram a ton of terrible things… I mean lovingly pack each box with treasures… and throw it in a truck.

@tinkleondabeach Are you a robot? You can’t buy this if you’re a robot.
Sweet mother of bunnies, I got my very first Fuko! cavorts
@RobinBobcat
I’m sorry for your loss of $5.
@RobinBobcat Me too! I can’t believe the day came! And so many people to thank. My parents, of course. The Academy. AA. Xenu, and Cthulhu, but just on weekends. Thumperchick should get a nod, and the guy who operates Irk. And… who am I leaving out… oh, Steve. Hi Steve.
@SnakeJG
The second one will be cancelled.
@mflassy You will soon learn what that means… in about 3 or 4 weeks. Sympathies.
@SnakeJG They’ll cancel one. Only one per person is allowed.
@RedOak
I’ve gotten Fukos (and Fukus) before.
@RobinBobcat Oh. Right. The image search thingy… keep forgetting… Hmm… ‘Paltry Acrid Cheddar’… getting a LOT of ingredient labels…
@RobinBobcat think candy corn
We can only buy one right?
@imzwho Right
@imzwho I believe that’s correct, my second order was canceled. I just want to make sure I get the sweet black fade bag, since the first two were shown as red only
@imzwho i didnt know that earlier. Bought a second one and was very confused when my first one was canceled. Meh.
@EvilTuna31x When they cancel one, it basically goes into the void. You’re literally taking a Fuko away from someone else.
@ShotgunX i’m sorry, I thought this was america
@rigor Doing your part to help destroy the middle class, eh?
Second of the day sweeet
@tinkleondabeach yeah, my second got canceled, so I expect this one to get canceled as well, but its fun to try anyways!
@tinkleondabeach yeah, that’s not going to stick.
@Thumperchick lame
@smigit2002 @tinkleondabeach
ಠ_ಠ
@Thumperchick Can I have Tinkles 2nd one?
@mfladd Is that anything like sloppy 2nds?
Fourth?
FINALLY
I kinda feel like it’s going to be filled with melted candy corn.
@AmishCthulhu No no… not filled with… made out of. Pressed flat with a steam iron, folded, add handles…
/buy
@tinkleondabeach Are you a robot? You can’t buy this if you’re a robot.
Got one!
Holy mother of bunny crap I finally got one
Feels so weird to see a Fuko and not be trying frantically to buy it. (got one earlier)
@Pony
same here. It seems soo wrong
@Pony right?
@Pony All things considered we probably should try; consider it a duty to save others from making a terrible mistake. Thats right; we’ll take on the burden to save you all from fuko remorse…
@duodec Well… except that second orders just get canceled.
A full minute goes by and the button still says “buy”, did the system go down?
@jandrese Yeah same here. I actually managed to get past the captcha in time… after the wait it said the server was too busy and to try again. Tried again and said sold out,
Omg, I FINALLY got one!!! I popped my Fuko cherry!!!
@tinamarie1974 Yea!!! Good for you. I am still a fuko virgin
@mfladd
Want me to send you a box of junk?
It’s either that, or I wait for the next Mehxchange.
@mfladd I’m sorry! I cant believe you have never gotten one! @snapster or @thumperchick should send you one for being a loyal contributor
@mflassy I have boxes of junk to send already. But thanks!
@tinamarie1974 I would be super happy if they just sent me a meh flask shirt! But thank you!
@mfladd it is always worth a try. They have to do something with those cancelled Fuko bags, right?
/giphy complex-humdrum-holiday
It’s not sold out yet, which is making me regret buying it.
When you’re done yelling about getting (or, more realistically not getting) a fuko, you should definitely read The Mehliad.
@Thumperchick Looking forward to it! Missed most of it because of my damn stupid job. Also sleep.
@Thumperchick
Too lazy to go to track down URL of full story from first Meh-rathon. Could you & would you do that for me?
Thanks.
@Thumperchick
Or not…
Apocalypse Soonish.
No excuses. This has been up forever compared to all other fuko’s.
Wait… Again?
Reloaded to check sales and it was sitting at 199 sold. That’s some kind of timing there.
\buy
@DownSystem For future reference, it’s a forward slash, not backslash. This isn’t Windows.
@SSteve Thanks, I’ll try and remember that for the future!
i tried, and i failed
@bigguyct trust me… you aren’t alone
distrustful-fatal-railway :
I CLICKED BUY FIVE TIMES AND IT JUST HASN’T GONE THROUGH IM SO PISSED
@legendornothing , I know how you feel. I got lucky this time … I think.
@cfg83 You know it’s a pain in the ass to always every single time camp it out on days when I know it’s coming or when I just have a gut feeling and it happens, and I miss it by a second. I never get my hopes up when that happens but for the first time it actually let me place the order and then out of nowhere it asked me to retry it and then it just cancelled the whole thing on me. Like that’s just so annoying it’s insane.
@cfg83 I have gigabit speed internet and it still wasn’t fast enough to place the damn order
@legendornothing Did the same to me.
fuko you Meh
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
-glance at pic and text
-click “buy”
-hastily complete order
-double check that you didn’t just buy a random bag of sunglasses or something
I wasn’t expecting that.
Why even try?
Sold out.
\buy
@wmbarr For future reference, it’s a forward slash, not backslash. This isn’t Windows
@SSteve I mean… I’m on Windows…
so weak… instantly clicked again and no luck
Those took a crazy amount of time to sell out, and site never lagged when I was refreshing. Wish Jen had an account.
@Pantheist Yeah, well I finally created one, ya jerk!
@MadMannequin welcome to meh!
@MadMannequin Now about that cookie recipe…
THESE FUCKING SERVERS I WANT TO DIE IT JUST KEPT GOING ON THAT LOADING BAR LIKE

@Jasonf1984 3 today?
@ruouttaurmind no since I started meh.
@Jasonf1984
I really hope no one tried to double-dip. If they did, their orders should be canceled.
I was almost angry at how long this one stayed up. Reacted instinctively, but didn’t buy it because I scored one during VMP hour.
@ShotgunX
Double orders get cancelled.
@ShotgunX when was that?
@ShotgunX I missed a VMP hour? Damn. What’d they have?
@ShotgunX No no, just send them every single bundle item that didn’t sell.
@Rosstafari you didn’t miss anything
@Rosstafari 4 PM, as usual. The Fuko was the third item in.
@ShotgunX
Dude, it’s a box of shit nobody wants. Mellowwww…
@ShotgunX …duh. How could I not have looked then? I am undeserving of this V… crest… thing.
I KEPT WAITING FOR IT TO GO THROUGH BUT NOTHINGNGGGGG
Bought at 11:31 and my order didn’t process.
Tried to buy, but got stupid trees and Bridges selections then some out. Still no fuko.
You shouldn’t have to Robot verify if you’re a VMP.
@mdjst5 I am, but I kept getting something like “are you a robot, you can’t buy … if you’re a robot” — and the green bar seduced me by scrolling three or four tortuous rounds. Earlier I also had to captcha. Well, congrats to those who got one
@mdjst5 it’s all part of the experience
/buy
@fuzzmanmatt Oops, sorry. We’re sold out.
@mediocrebot
/giphy Never gonna get it
Not a robot why you think i robot??? processing pain
I’m done. Ugh. Ever since they started to break up the offerings into smaller allotments I haven’t even been close. Not sure why I waste my time.
Gotta love those that clog up the process with buying multiples…not to mention when the multiples cancel out others simply lose out on an opportunity. Here’s a sincere fuck you to those that do.
@studerc Would you like me to send you a box of garbage?
@mossygreen I’m good. It’s been awhile since I had been around and thought this could be a fun way to get back into the swing of things. After today, I think I’m gonna pass. I haven’t gotten a fuko since the switch over the circuits and multiple offerings. The fuko “thrill” died when they changed it.
@studerc Understood. But if you change your mind, the offer stands. Obviously you’ll have to let me know somehow, I am not clairvoyant. But it stands.
your captcha can go to hell, no roads on the screen, verify…no sorry please click new images. literally all the images were of trees and buildings
I totally thought I was going to get one that time. made it through the captcha, only to have reset to are you a robot? dammit.
/giphy facetious-glittery-oak
just got my first one
nice servers lol
@FrankieEnc Those were the Raspberry Pi’s sold earlier.
Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick! I got my first one!
Yeah. Or if it’s your birthday. Dammit.
That’s bullshit: multiple times I got “Are you a robot you can’t buy this if you’re a robot” then boom sold out.
I can’t believe I actually got one. I’m stunned. I’ve been trying since 2007 with the BOC’s from woot. After a decade it better be worth it!
@katbyter it won’t
@katbyter There is absolutely no chance it will be worth it. Adjust expectations accordingly.
Second time today I’ve opened Meh seconds before these go on sale, click buy, do the capcha and it’s gone. Roller coaster of emotions. Oh well, at least I got the singing Bluetooth elephant
3 years, still never got one. I’m not a damn robot!
@caffeineguy consider yourself blessed.
@caffeineguy
@Thumperchick I cancelled my t-shirt order in protest. Was going to wear one and give one away.
Finally got one!!!
/giphy unfortunate-elicit-ghost
@root Nice giphy- reminds me of those emails people send where you concentrate on the image and then the scary thing pops up.
couldnt grab a single one today
slip. poooooooop
Why have this up for 1/2hr? Couldn’t they give us some 6 minute deals to end the day?
@phatmass So that all the people who come here to check what’s for sale at rollover see that they missed it and poop themselves.
why don’t you get purchase priority when you hit buy I don’t understand
You’d think being VMP would eliminate the need reCAPTCHA. GRRR!
No Fuko love for me.
@un4gvn1 removing CAPTCHA for VMP would just mean VMPs who are coding up bots would get them
@shawn
Noooo… not even 4 minutes into the deal and you’re out? You monsters…
Dang it apparently I’m a robot, denied again after checking the box but still had to do stupid catcha pictures
Thankfully the Lions were on MNF or I would of totally missed this. Thank you NFL.
Dude, im not a robot, or am i, now i have to contemplate this on the tree of woe
Haha. I saw every single fuku and missed them all! I can’t even be mad.
/giphy I’m not a fuckin robot.
@DJ I didn’t get captcha pictures but it still claimed that I’m a robot. Bull crap.
Why such a long timer when it’s well known to sell out in seconds?
You misspelled candy corn.
Well, I tried, but thanks to reCAPTCHA failed. Again.
Thats cool. Hold me up for over a minute, fail, hold me up again, then say your sold out.
@bobbynate same here

Really sad. I will never get a fuko. Dumb captcha. Now I have to spend my $5 on something useful, like 3 stamps.
so up for 30 min, thus ends the mehrathon…
Let’s hurry up and get to the Two-fer-Tuesday deal!!! maybe it will be a buy two Fukobukuro’s for twice the price! more bukuro… more fuko…
I tried to get one, waited for the loading bar to stop spazzing after tapping buy and was told they were busy processing orders and to try again. Try to purchase again and am told I might be a robot.

Screwed by the captcha… AGAIN!! Arrrrggghhh!!!

3rd Fuku in a row where the f’ing robot crap screws you. Non of my other dozen purchases today ever asked for the f’ing thing. wtf. such bs.
I wish I was a robot. Clicked buy it within 15 seconds (approx) made me sign in again, then processed sale, then gave error message that something went wrong, try again, then said ‘sorry, sold out’.
A robot wouldn’t feel so crushed.
Bring back the shirts.
Nice. I don’t think they had a 4th fuko last Mehrathon.
@jsh139
They didn’t.
This is the worst captcha I have ever seen. Tells me to select something that does not exist.
Got screwed by the captcha last night, this one worked. First bag ever, can’t wait to see what ridiculous crap I get, haha

So much Kristen Wiig in this thread. That’s ok.
Took 3 minutes to load and then sold out. Agree with the statement above that if you already got one you shouldn’t be able to get another one. But that’s just me being pissy about the loading time - not sure if I wanted one filled with sunglasses, pineapple mugs and all the other crap they have been trying to sell and can’t get rid of.
But you were too slow.
Moreover, why are you wasting 30 minutes on this? Put it up for a max of 5 minutes (because it’s gone in under 2) and then put something else up to close out the 'thon. Watching a sold out counter click down for 25 minutes is 1) boring 2) annoying when you tried and failed to get a single fuku.
Why can’t I use auto-fill on the order screen? Unless I’m mistaken, this is still America and I should be able to expedite the process of trading my money for goods and services.
Can we get a little consistency on the reCaptchas? Either everyone should have to tap on parts of a picture or no one should. None of this wishy-washy bullshit.
Fifth time missing out on a fuko bag. Winner winner chicken dinner.
@sixstringslim
1 - If you save your info in your account, it should autofill.
2 - ???
3 - profit! (Or not, since you couldn’t buy the thing…)
@Thumperchick I’ve got all my info saved… I’ve bought stuff from you folks for a while now, and yet, every time (no matter what) I have to go through some 3 or 4 different reCaptchas, every, single, time.
@dkaine The ReCaptchas will ReSet if you hammer on them like a crazed monkey. It’s to prevent bots. And yes, you get them no matter what when the Fukos come up. Again, to prevent bots.
@dkaine ah, I have no cure for CAPTCHA, sorry.
Can I call “bath” on one of the cancelled fukos from the guys that decided to try and order multiples. I’d be all over that action as a consolation prize for a fucked up day.

@caffeineguy ummmmm…try never. And I still bought a damn shirt
@mfladd @caffeineguy tshirts? where?
@thismyusername You missed everything, didn’t you?
Yes, I did actually want the disappointment.
I clicked buy, unlike the other times it continued to fill green over and over for about 30 seconds… then had an error. It allowed me to try again, heck, it encouraged me to… and then this…
Meh…
Oh Meh-rathon please please continue.
I have not had one of these in such a long time, I no longer give a flying fuck if I ever get one again…
Yes. I tried all day & night, & this time I finally got everything OK…and then I got the repeating green stripe of death. No fun. None.
so is this the 8am one?
Do those that bought two… fully understanding that their 2nd orders would then be cancelled understand that you are taking away opportunities for other Meh-fam to get one? It is not like they will just put them on MorningSave later.
@todaresq it’s not like Meh’s going to do anything about it other than cancel their orders, so there’s no incentive for them not to do it. And it means a lot of the “Meh-fam” get screwed but a lot of the responses I see boil down to either “oops, too bad” or “fygm.”
@todaresq
nope but the odds are high they will just sell the leftover ones during the black friday-ish fuko.
@magnuspraeda They should cancel all Fuko orders for anyone that ordered more than 1. That’ll incentivize them.
Is it true that if someone “wins” more than once from the four times they posted fukos during the meh-rathon they get one fuko?
@norman8 1 fuko per person per day is how it normally works.
@norman8 Bold strategy calling that a “win”. But if you get stuck with multiple orders, yea, they gonna knock that fucking shit off and give you one. One disappointment is enough, just ask my father.
@norman8 duplicate orders for fukos will be canceled, yes.
@Thumperchick @thismyusername @studerc Thanks for clarifying - I’ve now lost my sense of loss from losing the 2nd, 3rd and 4th fuko posting and will put this info to good use for future meh-rathons. Now only one disappointment remains - and I can’t wait!
@Thumperchick
I see that a couple (as of roughly an hour ago) were cancelled.
@Thumperchick How about duplicate orders for Fuko and you cancel all of their Fuko orders for being selfish and impacting others
Not only did I get one, despite only popping in sporadically, I am getting the bag that looks like it was partially dipped into a large oil slick! Woohoo!

I wish you guys had a system of where if it’s in your “cart” that’s your guarantee to have it for like 3 minutes while you fill out the dang captcha- like ticket sales. Missed out on this one last night bc the stupid captcha wouldn’t load.
Anything special about this fuko? That strange colored bag just got me wondering?
I was driving during the first two, and I fell asleep minutes before the last one I guess I lacked the dishonor to veer my car into a ditch in order to waste $5, and lacked the stamina to care
Feel free to take some extra time filling these with decent crap, meh! No expectations, of course, but here’s hoping you at least beat out the quality of the Woot BOC’s! Last time, at least for me, Woot won by a considerable margin.
@phonorad Something tells me you are going to get a very special package now.
@mfladd That’s what I was afraid of, but nonetheless, I had to put it out there! Woot sank so low after Amazon that I almost gave up on their BOC’s, Meh came along with some GREAT Fuko/Fuku’s initially, but lately things seem to have flip-flopped! With 53 BOC’s, I have been able to track the quality of things pretty well over the years.
I just want a clothes washing machine in mine please. @snapster, Go ahead and send it to @sammydog01 if you would. kthnxbai
This is my first time buying anything so how long to ship this item?
@skbruck The top of the product page (like this one) has an estimated arrival date.
@skbruck also, the special brand of disappointment that the fuko brings is best when it’s allowed to age in the warehouse for a week or two before being loaded onto the smartpost snailmobile.
@djslack Yeah I bet they are letting it age there so they have time to dump the rest of the trashier stuff that didn’t sell the second time around in the mehrathon that even morningsave customers wouldn’t choose to buy. (grin)
@skbruck The specs post for each product thread always has an estimated delivery date. If you miss it there, it’s also on your orders page.
Really though, these will ship when we have time to cram a ton of terrible things… I mean lovingly pack each box with treasures… and throw it in a truck.
@skbruck
Besides, it takes time for the mass of melted candy corn to age to the point of fermentation.
Anyone get a shipping notice yet?
The anticipation is killing me!!!
I can’t wait to see whatever one gets
