K, show of hands, who else looked at their total Meh clicks and ballparked the math to get their answer because they have no concept of how long ago things happened after ~3 days?
@awk Yep. 1375 days for me. That’s 26.37 dog years! Or 3.76712328767ish Earth years. I have missed more than just a few meh button clicks in that time though.
Well I have had VMP since September 2014, so there’s that.

I’ve been a member of Woot! since 2005 and somehow I managed never to learn about Meh until maybe 4 months ago… I feel so out of the loop here (the whole site is weirdly confusing to me) but from what I can gather it seems like a really fun place.
One of my biggest questions is what is the point of the Meh button?? Am I supposed to click it? I see that some people above having been clicking it since day one but for what purpose? Is it just to show that you acknowledge the item? Or that you don’t care about the item? I just dunno. It confounds me
Or I could blow the altruism score. Now which is more in character?
Hmmm.
Does that mean someone who never creates a topic, never replies, never comments will have an infinite altruism score so long as they give a single like?
Infinity and I are buds. It’s cool. loyalty, ya know.
@f00l - See up there where you posted your profile? Notice there is a dotted line under the word “altruism”?
On PC you can hold your cursor there and the secret info magically appears!
@KDemo So I was quietly listening to my youtube queue of Joan Jett music (just finished I Love Rock and Roll) and suddenly it started playing the new Meh Meh-rathon song. Talk about a jolt!
@f00l My altruism score is down too. I could either click more or post less … and the odds of the latter happening is about as good as the odds of me complaining that there are too many catshirts.
I’ve been coming here for almost a year… that would be the day after my birthday on the 22nd!
Learned about Meh from a fellow passenger flyer that I sat with on a plane coming from vegas and he let me use his battery power bank to charge my son’s iPad.
Youngling of 35 days… I’ve been perusing ever since my brother handed me a bag of Haribo Gold Gummi Bears several months ago. Upon hearing the price, Meh quickly trumped the others to become the only impulse-buy site I check daily. Couldn’t resist a two-for-Tuesday electronic screwdrivers (SO worth it), so I made an account. The rest is history, or well… in you guys’ case, ongoing daily life.

Today is my first visit. I was a faithful Wootite but I’ve lost interest over there. I’m going to focus all skills and attention on Meh. I wish I’d found this site over a 1000 days ago like all you all.
A long, long time ago, I was reading the Wall Street Journal and they had an article on good websites. Woot was one of them.
Right then I went to see it. I started reading the post and the people were fun!
I read for a few months before I finally posted.
Got addicted.
Met a wooter in real life and became good friends.
Worked for you for free, which at least gave me something to tell them a jury duty when they asked what I did. Plus, for a golden period, got paid in crap!
Moved to meh on day one.
Not that active, but for some reason I give Snapster $5 a month when I hardly ever buy anything.
Not sure why…he has more money than I do…hope he isn’t making his kids “rich kids”. Rich kids are not good.
I’ve been here from day zero, but have been slacking from looking at the deals every day. I also come and go from being very active on the forums to not looking.
I have been here since at least 12/2014. I made my first purchase then: 2-FOR-TUESDAY: JBL ONBEAT MICRO SPEAKER DOCK WITH LIGHTNING CONNECTOR.
I gave them as gifts and still use one myself and it’s still working like a champ. Other purchases have come and died, but I wish I had more of those speakers. It was cheaper than a cable by itself!
and basically said, hey, I love the guy, I love(d) Woot, so might as well check. it. out. Plus I got the cool K badge. That so far has gotten me … a cool K badge.
Every day, since day 0. And I’ve clicked the Meh button every time too.
@Collin1000 You guys are gonna fuck this up, aren’t you? Bastards.
@Collin1000 I don’t know how you do that. I’m trying to break my 31 day streak. And I’m certain I pressed Meh that 32nd day. Grrr.

Just look in the freakin’ database yah dweebs, no need for a poll!
Anyway for me it is 2.67214237 years. Approximately.

@baqui63 count everything in base 2 for a higher count…
I had to check on my own profile
My anniversary is tomorrow so I guess i’m the 2.999999 years
@Zebus Too many nines! Six nines is a million. You only need three nines for a thousand. (I used to work with scientists.)
Since day 1! (:
Mostly a lurker though haha
@jeffrey Me too, apparently.

I still feel like an interloper, though. All the cool Meh kids somehow can tell that I’m not one of them.
@writdenied
@writdenied wut, there are cool kids here?
/giphy mind blown
Can we count the pre-Meh Woot years?
@JustKen I’ve been here 13 years! And I’ve lurked for pretty much all of it!
Well I have had VMP since September 2014, so there’s that.

@IcedCorn 45 orders? Step up your game!
OMG Fukobukuro and I got one!!
@IcedCorn The gotcha got me.
@JustKen once again I didn’t get one and there wasn’t the buy it already bar at the bottom for me to click…
985 days.
I was here day 1 but I’m not hip enough to have been here day 0.
And I still haven’t found the bathroom.

Some dance to remember,
Some dance to forget.
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave.

About 1 frickin’ CAPTCHA too long, apparently1
Pre Meh when it was just mediocre and before the kickstarter. visited day one of mediocre and registered on day 2 of mediocre.

1093 days ago, but it only seems like 3 years.

@qwerty82
The point of the Meh button is to cause people infinite pain when they forget to click.
And to cause other people who always click to be better than the rest of us.
@qwerty82 - Welcome! Feel free to ask questions. I can’t promise serious answers, but you gotta take your chances.
Here’s some fun stuff to get you started:
https://meh.com/forum/topics/mehdown-slash-commands
And don’t forget to click the star for comments you like.
I have been mediocre for 1400 days, and have been here since day zero.
/giphy mic drop
@ConAndLibrarian Me too, kinda.
@ConAndLibrarian
@Barney
Who has
-been Mediocre for 1400 days?
-started at Meh on Day 0?
-got all the Fukos and Fukus?
-clicked every single clicky-face?
-never ever starred their own comments?
-got all the t-shirts?
-voted in all the polls?
-has purple karma?

How come my altruism score keeps going down?
/giphy sisyphus
@f00l - The formula
Likes given / (topics created + comments added + replies added)
@KDemo
I could shaddup.
Or I could blow the altruism score. Now which is more in character?
Hmmm.
Does that mean someone who never creates a topic, never replies, never comments will have an infinite altruism score so long as they give a single like?
Infinity and I are buds. It’s cool. loyalty, ya know.
@f00l - Meh, no one really pays attention to the altruism score anyway. Mine has decreased as well.
@KDemo
Was this officially announced somewhere?
@f00l Go to your profile page and hover over the work “altruism”. It will give you this formula.
@f00l - See up there where you posted your profile? Notice there is a dotted line under the word “altruism”?
On PC you can hold your cursor there and the secret info magically appears!
@Barney said it better.
@KDemo Oops, I didn’t meant to butt in. I thought you might have gone to bed.
@Barney
@Kdemo
OK. I don’t go to my profile page for obvious reasons.
@Barney
What? They left the internet on late in Kansas, just for the Meh-rathon?
Nice.
@f00l Neither do the rest of us, but you did post a screen shot from it, did you not?
@Barney
Used a third party supplier for that.
@Barney - No, you really did say it better. And faster. Hangin’ in, but I don’t know for how much longer. Maybe one more item.
@f00l - So you’re not a robot, but you employ them to do your internetting? That 'splains a lot!
@KDemo So I was quietly listening to my youtube queue of Joan Jett music (just finished I Love Rock and Roll) and suddenly it started playing the new Meh Meh-rathon song. Talk about a jolt!
@f00l My altruism score is down too. I could either click more or post less … and the odds of the latter happening is about as good as the odds of me complaining that there are too many catshirts.
Weird that with 1101 faces, I have clicked the clickface more than the days I have been here.
1233 days. I feel very sequential, cubed.
Long enough.
Where now?
I am reading this question in a completely different way since the “massagers” went up for sale.

I’ve been coming here for almost a year… that would be the day after my birthday on the 22nd!
Learned about Meh from a fellow passenger flyer that I sat with on a plane coming from vegas and he let me use his battery power bank to charge my son’s iPad.
Somehow, I missed the launch. Then I saw a link in somebody’s signature field on the Woot! forums. Started in September 2014.
1398 days. One of the original 800+ “weirdo” backers on Kickstarter. Yay
@arcsus Yay!
Been here 992 days (oct 2014) and my performance has been less than mediocre. Winning!

Since this is day one for me I have a question. Do people post pictures of their Fuks like BOCs?

I hit the wrong button. Oops.
Kickstarter backer here as well. Still rock the Meh shirt with the exclusive “K” icon, though it’s starting to show its age (aren’t we all).
According to my profile I joined 1397 days ago on September 13th, 2013.
@GenCurmudgeon where do you see that? I had to use my emails to see when my first purchase was, because I couldn’t see it in my profile.
Edit: oh geez, never mind. I clicked on you and then myself. So lame of me. Thanks for letting me know it was possible!
I’ve been coming here about a year before today; but all my life since last night.
How long have you been coming to Meh? Worst pick-up line EVER!
I’ve been here from day zero, but have been slacking from looking at the deals every day. I also come and go from being very active on the forums to not looking.

I saw a tweet from @snapster
and basically said, hey, I love the guy, I love(d) Woot, so might as well check. it. out. Plus I got the cool K badge. That so far has gotten me … a cool K badge.
I answered before I checked my profile. I thought it been coming for 1 to 2 years – it’s actually been almost 3 years.
