I have a prediction... I've been staying up for MEh items most nights for the past month... My prediction is the ONE night I am exhausted and go to bed at 7 PM (EST) is the night a Fuku will pop up... Just like last time....
You know that some people who see this thread won't just let it die (either to be annoying, or because they don't know how to NOT comment on every thread which they see.)
@FroodyFrog Wow, I don't recall ever saying I don't want brownies. Now the monitor is intriguing based on the last traveshamockery during the valentine Fuku. I do have a Meh. Fanny Pack if that is increasing your interest. Oh, BTW, what does "brownies" mean, compared to brownies or brownies?
It just means that I was too lazy to italicize the word. (Or at least that's the story I'm sticking to. I don't feel like we know each other well enough for me to go deeper into how my brain works.)
As Sun Tzu said in The Art of War : “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
@sohmageek I was super bummed out when it happened because I anticipated it and was up for it. But after seeing the reveals I felt better since my household hit the roomba jackpot the fuku before.
Which night are you predicting to be soooo tired? Mine was not worth the excitement I spent on it last time, but at least I didn't have the ROBOT challenge nightmare.
@InspectorGadget Fuku=You pay $5, you get what Meh. decides to send you, valued as high as several hundred $$$ and as low as $6 (IMHO). You also get to deal with the frustration of not getting one, even if you click BUY at exactly 12:00 EDT, due to demand and ROBOT defenders. Everybody wants one, but only the few (hundred) lucky ones get them. And then the waiting begins to see what you got...
@OldCatLady aww you picked he newer version of it. :) not the original ;) (yes it's sad I've seen that video enough to know the difference. Spotted it first play of the new one. The fact they say is different. The original talked about grab bags in pants.
I think my fuku/o acquisition days are behind me. I got four of them in the past (the first 2 were before my time), but now sleep is just too precious to me. I love being part of the action, but now is not a good time.
@FroodyFrog@mediocrebot I didn't think of tagging the bot... We <3 you... But we also love that you're an asshole... Please play with our hearts tonight... :) no fuku... But hidden fuko?
Thanks for the advance notice. Sleep well.
Stop it. :) Let this thread just sit and die. Don't want to get everyone all excited. Many still don't know whats coming.

@studerc People don't know what's coming? @studerc can you let them know? Maybe an exchange is in the works?
@sohmageek @studerc
What kind of exchange?
Food? Other peoples houses?
@FroodyFrog you know what... @studerc hates when someone tries to do a fuku exchange without him running it....
Don't worry about missing a Fuku, worry about missing a Fuko.
@Ignorant True... Although, I loved my fanny pack :) My son used it for a rattle...
@sohmageek Thanks for reminding me about the fanny packs.
@MEHcus - I'll trade you the "brownies" which @DMlivezey didn't want in exchange for a spare meh fanny pack? (Oh, and there also wouldn't be a mehsterious monitor sitting in the warehouse. At least not for a while...)

@FroodyFrog Oh, I thought it was deeper, or maybe a bit of a wink-wink nudge-nudge, say no more, say no more bit.
What does Mr./Ms./Mrs. Sun Tzu say about friends, since I don't know you well enough to consider you an enemy?
At least your brain works, mine, sometimes not so much 'Meh.'
@DMlivezey
It's possible that I meant deeper than that. However, even I don't fully understand myself. My brain works in mehsterious ways.
No clue what he says about friends. I never read The Art of War
My fuku senses were tingling for the last one, and I missed it because I got side-tracked for a few minutes... such is life.
@hashybrown I called it the night... I Was exhausted, and said Screw it I'm going to bed... Enjoy your Fuku... And boom it was a Fuku... :)
@sohmageek I was super bummed out when it happened because I anticipated it and was up for it. But after seeing the reveals I felt better since my household hit the roomba jackpot the fuku before.
@hashybrown @sohmageek
Same. I'm kinda worried if I get another fuku.
@FroodyFrog But you might get lucky and get a giant bubblegum machine.
@pooflady
I have one.
Just resign yourself to getting some decent deals and no fuku. Lower expectations=happier you
Which night are you predicting to be soooo tired? Mine was not worth the excitement I spent on it last time, but at least I didn't have the ROBOT challenge nightmare.
I'm not fool ish enough to make a prediction.
Fuku 1 - Kickstarter
Fuku 2 - 9/17/2014
Fuku 3 - 11/14/2014
Fuku 4 - 1/14/2015
Fuko 1 - 4/1/2015
Fuku 5 - 7/9/2015
Fuku 6 - 10/21/2015
Fuku 7 - 1/27/2016
Hope another one is soon im 8/8. Got a neato last time! Hoping for a DJI this time.
@whistlingwilly
I don't like analyzing data (I purposely chose to stay away from that line of work).
What could be gleaned from these chars and ints which were put together into strings?
@FroodyFrog They come up every 3 months.
@whistlingwilly Didn't they have one on Valentine's Day?
@ACraigL That was #7. They all have a special name.
@whistlingwilly And I was totally expecting it to come on Groundhog day... Missed it by thaaaaaat much...
@FroodyFrog Linear regression for that dataset predicts Fuku #8 is at ... 3/31/16.
@uwacn yet again MATH IS WRONG SO WRONG
Umm...what's a fuku?
@InspectorGadget
Exactly the point. The contents are different for each person, so you can't say what it is until you get it.
@FroodyFrog Ah....ok. So it's a mystery. Behind door #1....
@InspectorGadget
If you're familiar with the BOC's from Woot;
Fuku - sometimes better than the boc.
Fuko - almost as bad as the boc.
(Also, @dave @katylava - 4 periods... >_<)
@InspectorGadget Here's a description. Sort of.
@InspectorGadget Fuku=You pay $5, you get what Meh. decides to send you, valued as high as several hundred $$$ and as low as $6 (IMHO). You also get to deal with the frustration of not getting one, even if you click BUY at exactly 12:00 EDT, due to demand and ROBOT defenders.

@OldCatLady other one :)
@OldCatLady aww you picked he newer version of it. :) not the original ;) (yes it's sad I've seen that video enough to know the difference. Spotted it first play of the new one. The fact they say is different. The original talked about grab bags in pants.
@thismyusername I like this version :) I can tell what some of the words are :)
I got a brand new Roomba last time, so if I miss out it's no big deal. I am happy that I lucked out last time.
screw you guys for giving my false hope. i even fixed my capital one billing issue in anticipation
@communist well at least you were all set for a new pair of bluetooth headphones, or 3 pairs.
I think my fuku/o acquisition days are behind me. I got four of them in the past (the first 2 were before my time), but now sleep is just too precious to me. I love being part of the action, but now is not a good time.
Good luck everyone!
@ACraigL sleep, more sleep, good choice...
i am ready and braced for disappointment
I predict Snapster will be laughing his ass off at midnight when they bring back the JBL micro.
@sammydog01 You think it'll be a speaker dock? I'm expecting those turd knives to come back again.
@lljk But people liked those.
Dear Meh, please fuku me tonight... my body is ready.
@awk
@mediocrebot - If it's not speaker dock knives, I will personally fly to Carrollton and make sure you end up hanging over a shark tank.
@FroodyFrog @mediocrebot I didn't think of tagging the bot... We <3 you... But we also love that you're an asshole... Please play with our hearts tonight... :) no fuku... But hidden fuko?
@sohmageek
Nobody ever thinks of the bot. That's why he gets the least amount of random packages :(
I think it's tonight/ 4.1.16 I mean how great would that be and makes sense given the tone of the website.
Anyone agree?
@thelegendaryjt3 It's been done before... but we'll see...
@thelegendaryjt3
This was last year's deal for 4/1.
(Just saying)
@thelegendaryjt3 Better warm up that F5 key.
