Happy Birthday Meh and a Story and Coloring

I thought it might be fun to make IRK coloring sheets as a birthday gift and encourage a coloring contest to give away some IRKs. So I did what any tech obsessed person in 2026 would do.

I asked AI to help me make the coloring sheets.

Here are your coloring sheets:
Irk 1
Irk 2
Irk 3

Now I know what you are thinking. This isn’t much of a story.
Well, let’s back up to the beginning.

I worked through this process, very carefully worded and prepped my AI Prompts, and had what I thought was going to be a quick and easy solution. Until it wasn’t.

See, the first draft really left something to be desired:

First Draft 1
First Draft 2
First Draft 3

These are, without question, incredible. Dare I say, a perfect representation of AI and its use in art. To say I was shook when I saw these is an understatement. I was paralyzed with laughter. These made my entire year.

But I was too invested, so I didn’t stop there. I refined, rethought, and moved on to the second draft:

2nd 1
2nd 2
2nd 3

I almost stopped here, but I didn’t I needed one more go. So that is where we landed with the images at the top.

So if you made it all the way to the bottom, here is the challenge. Print these. Color them with crayon. And we’ll send a couple IRKs to our favorite.

Happy Birthday Meh. I’ve been here for every single one of them. What a ride.
