@Barney I’ve been trying to get in on this for 3 years, and every time something has happened to prevent me from getting the ink, from money issues to being in the hospital or stuck in quarantine with no tattoo shops open. Please stop jabbing at me. It’s uncalled for.
@macdaddy1 So true about whiners. But what really amazes me, is that she was able to find a tattoo artist, at the last minute, to do a full color tattoo. And she’s not even bleeding, not even a little bit.
@Barney@macdaddy1 Oh, I’m bleeding. The artist wiped it off real good and took the pic before it had a chance to get gross again. It’s under that clear adhesive film stuff now, and poor Irk looks like an accident victim. I’m happy to take a new photo if you have a burning desire to see me bleed.
@Barney Are you making some kind of accusation, or what? I got this bloody tattoo today. You want to call the shop and ask them? You want to see my credit card statement? A macro shot of my raw bloody flesh? I’m not supposed to remove this adhesive thingie for a week, but I’ll peel this shit off on video if it will get you off my case.
@Weboh I have had to ask my employer for a replacement… this one runs waaaay hot all the time, and its battery only lasts 30 minutes now. 167 degrees Fahrenheit is normal for all CPUs!
@Jasongb They’re probably not going to give you another one of the same model, then. What I really like about that model is you can fix everything yourself. My keyboard went bad, and I was able to just pop in another one. Also love interchangeable storage, RAM, and the DVD drive. They don’t make them like that any more. We’re in the era of disposable computers now.
Bought the new house today… been really really busy!
Also, got my first package at the new house about 2 hours after I bought it… my irk from the last mehrathon. I will post it soon.
Has anyone seen these pop up in their orders yet? Just curious since I don’t see it in mine and people are already receiving their IRKs today (crazy fast!)
Sorry, I don’t have a printer. Hope this will do.
Happy Birthday, Meh!
I forgot to mention that the Meh party hat is a @hollboll original. I just want you to know that you have not been forgotten.
@Barney 🥺
@Barney Hi @hollboll!
/giphy hi
Is this the one where I can finally join the irksome ink club? I am pretty sure I can get it done before the end of the 'thon.
@Pony
Ask TPTB. Or ask @thumperchick or @chadp.
I don’t think anyone ever promised there would be future opportunities to join thr “irk for irks” club.
So it’s up to what they decide.
@ChadP @f00l @Thumperchick I am aware that no promises were made. But since it is birthday time again, I am asking again. Please, may I join?
@ChadP @Pony @Thumperchick
Hope they open it up. Or at least that they do so for you.
: )
@ChadP @f00l @Pony @Thumperchick
I thought it was open invite…good to know before putting ink to meh body
@Pony If you get it done before the end of our birthday celebration, I’ll let you in.
@Thumperchick Thank you!
@Thumperchick is this for everyone?
@metaphore My guess is that it depends upon how whiny you can be. After all, some very high standards have already been set.
@Barney hey, I’ve asked at least one other time I the last year. But I guess I could really up the whining. Hope I don’t have to.

@Pony Who said I was referring to you? There’s a lot of us around here. But if the shoe fits…
Whoa, whoa, whoa, today is supposed to be a happy day.
/giphy stahp
@Thumperchick I did it! And look how adorable he is!
@Pony @Thumperchick
That’s quite cute
@Pony @Thumperchick Wow, I am impressed. That was some speed, and more of a tattoo than most!
@f00l Thanks!
@raccoon81 Thank you! I had to call a lot of shops, but finally found one with an opening right away. I love how it turned out.
@Pony nice!
@Thumperchick Thank you! I love it!
@Pony @Thumperchick
That’s the nicest looking one, in my opinion!
@Kyeh Aw, thank you.

Holy Whiner’s List from Woot-Off days! Are people still whining?
@macdaddy1 So true about whiners. But what really amazes me, is that she was able to find a tattoo artist, at the last minute, to do a full color tattoo. And she’s not even bleeding, not even a little bit.
SHE IS SO LUCKY, in so many ways

@Pony Right. I believe you. I really do.
@Barney Are you making some kind of accusation, or what? I got this bloody tattoo today. You want to call the shop and ask them? You want to see my credit card statement?

@Pony I just told you that I believe you. What more do you want?
@Barney World peace.
@Pony congrats on now not having to worry about human speed, internet speed, or only 50 of them to get an irk!
@Kidsandliz Thank you.
@Barney @Pony I am confused, I didn’t realize the rule was regarding the timing of the tattoo, but that a meh-mber gets one. Why does it even matter?
Also, that tattoo is totes adorable
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Pony that’s a great tattoo!
@djslack Thanks!
Back when this started I thought…no way. Now that I lose sleep every Athon, it would be worth a Meh tat in some obscure locale on my body.
Happy 0 day Meh
Happy Birthday Meh! You guys help keep me sane.
Now I’m confused. Will July 7 or July 8 be the one declared a national holiday??
@eeterrific Yes.
@eeterrific No.
@eeterrific
/giphy why not both
@eeterrific @Thumperchick
Hooray! I made it in time!
@Jasongb I have that same computer! I love it and will use it until it dies, at which time I will buy the same model for much cheaper.
@Weboh I have had to ask my employer for a replacement… this one runs waaaay hot all the time, and its battery only lasts 30 minutes now. 167 degrees Fahrenheit is normal for all CPUs!

I printed a tiny hat for my ink pic.
@remo28
Ooo, so cool - @TheMeerkat needs to do that! Irk wearing Irk!
@Thumperchick If I just go do it you can’t say no, right?
@metaphore Welcome to Team Flask!
@sammydog01 The artist asked if I make meth
@metaphore @sammydog01
I wonder if they were disappointed by your answer.
@metaphore Did you say yes or admit it was a corporate logo?
@Kyeh @metaphore @sammydog01 maybe they were looking for a dealer? Lol
@sammydog01 Admitting to meth is waaaayyy less weird than explaining the whole thing.
@metaphore @sammydog01 @tinamarie1974
At least it’s an addiction that people have heard of before…
Bought the new house today… been really really busy!

@thumperchick
@mbersiam
CONGRATS!!
@Lynnerizer Thank you!!
@ChadP @Thumperchick happy birthday! 🥳🧁
here’s hoping for seven more years of TrackR Pixels
Psst… I have it on good authority that if you post a new thread for today’s event, I can give you another round of IRKs…
cough cough https://meh.com/forum/topics/inks-for-irks-day-1-birthday-edition
Has anyone seen these pop up in their orders yet? Just curious since I don’t see it in mine and people are already receiving their IRKs today (crazy fast!)
@remo28 I’ll be putting these in tonight.
Hey all - your IRKs are in!
@Thumperchick thank you!
