Mine came in. Five items, the first was amazing. The second was solid. The third smelled like the devil’s outhouse and had a ruined lithium ion battery inside. The fourth was flurry. The fifth was a bag that we were able to fit a child into, and properly labeled.
I got mine today. It was very curious! It came shipped in a beat up Hamilton Beech box.
But I saw the “Meh” logo and thought it was odd. So I opened it up.
I couldn’t believe it. Inside there was a pair of running socks, an iPhone 6 case, 60 date rape drug tests, and one obviously never been used Hamilton Beech professional 6-qt sous vide and slow cooker.
I kind of still can’t believe it! This is my first IRK but there’s really no regrets! This seems crazy!
@therealjrn Thanks! I mean… the socks and iphone case I expected. But when I saw the box outside I assume they’d repurposed it, but they just crammed the other stuff in it and taped it back up. The box did look all beat to heck, but the machine in side looks good as brand new
@candiedisilvio1 since it’s my first one, I ordered quantity “1”… is that right, or was I supposed to add additional quantities? Like the old BOC where you had to say you wanted 3?
I received my IRK and had a 3 piece set of hard sided luggage. The largest had slight damage but for 5 bucks I cannot complain. I count this one as a win
I spend more fucking time trying to prove I am not a robot then the worthless fucking IRK is sold out. Happens time after time! So fucking frustrating! BLAME THE FUCKING GOAT!!!
A pair of men’s socks, an iphone 6 case, some weird fruit punch supplement powder for sleep, a pair of adventure time glasses that now that I think of it didn’t break, and one orange bag. Not anything I can use but worth the price of admission all the same.
@Tiamat114 Oh my god, so I decided to try the supplement powder since I have trouble falling asleep and seriously my mouth. I feel like it should be more obvious, but for the love of god check expiration dates on things before putting them in your mouth from sources labelled crap. Expired in February and either being sealed didn’t help or this is the most foul thing I have consumed. Its so bitter and acrid that I was like wtf should this be like this? Its so bad I want to throw up but can’t. No wonder why I got it, who the hell wants this nightmarish experience.
@therealjrn I followed the instructions which was something like 1/2 a cup to a 3/4 a cup of water. Probably even used more water than that with one level scoop. That stuff is going straight in the trash. Instant regret kit is an understatement, this is a lingering regret kit!
@Tiamat114 To each their own. Maybe sitting in the hot warehouse didn’t help it. I went back and bought it a couple of times over on MS.
/giphy go the fuck to sleep
@therealjrn Huh, it’s entirely possible. I’ve gotten things from Amazon before that without a doubt have gone completely off especially during the summer, and this might fall into that. If it works it works, just not in my mouth.
Besides my orange bag I had two meh travel cups, two pairs of vaguely Disney-ish socks, two printer usb cables, a universal gps dashboard mount, and a used Pure daily care aromatherapy/essential oil diffuser kit.
Received my IRK today. In addition to the IRK bag, I received:
60 Date rape drug detection strips. I don’t go out to bars and pick up randos anymore, so I don’t have much use for them.
Gray ankle socks, intended for running. I don’t go running, but I imagine they’d still work when I go to the grocery store.
Off-brand action camera (think Go Pro). I don’t do XTREME sports anymore, so I don’t have much use for it. Although it comes with a variety of mounts, the one thing it is missing is a suction cup mount. If it had a suction cup mount, I could use it as a poor man’s dashcam. Or I could duct tape it to my chest as a poor man’s bodycam.
Received my IRK today, not too shabby. Thanks Meh. In order of removal from shipping box (all items new in their box except Tile):
Orange Bag
Little Griddle - Anyware outdoor/indoor non-stick skillet
Zen Logic - EXTREME Portable bluetooth speaker with bonus power bank
Lily Signature - Facial Hair Remover Spring
Roxx Exos Bluetooth earbuds
Key Smart Pro Edition with Tile Smart Location
@dam091 If I had a kid, I would have gotten more than the $5 worth out of the bag from the one I got previously. As is I about broke even. And it’s fun
@Thumperchick I think it had something to do with my cache. Gouda scored one earlier and I didn’t clear the cache. After I received the message - I cleared out the browsing history and I scored the 11:45 IRK
@cengland0 sure it does, Meh uses a one page checkout where when you complete the call to action it creates a cart with a one page checkout that is prefilled with your information then you click BUY IT ALREADY to complete purchase
@beschbruce Instant Regret Kit. It is a bunch of crap that they found on the warehouse floor and swept into boxes to sell to customers. You never know what you’ll get. Could be something good, could be something broken. Expect garbage and if you get something nice, you lucked out.
I… I GOT ONE! I hope it comes with clean undies, because I just shit myself I FUCKING GOT ONE!
/giphy naive-incognito-cake
@fuzzmanmatt LOL I’ve never gotten undies but I have gotten a sports bra before
@fuzzmanmatt You should wear nothing but brown pants during a meh-rathon…

@Selerik pictures?
@Selerik @tinamarie1974 I want to hear more about the devil’s outhouse!
@Selerik @therealjrn I KNOW! Enquiring minds…
@Selerik @therealjrn @tinamarie1974 I want to hear about flurry.
@sammydog01 @therealjrn @tinamarie1974 Flurry was a typo, should’ve been FLUFFY. SO FLUFFY.
Alas, I unboxed everything in a hurry because of that ungodly aroma needing to be identified and slain. Sorry fam.
@sammydog01 @Selerik @tinamarie1974 Well then, did the child do ok overnight in the bag?
@Selerik @therealjrn @tinamarie1974 SO WHAT WAS FLUFFY???

FINALLY! It’s happened to me. Right in front of my face. And I just can’t describe it!
(My first IRK)
/giphy cagey-futuristic-dirt
@indiebass congratulations! Your first bag of disappointment
@indiebass Are you regretting it yet? You should be.
@candiedisilvio1 since it’s my first one, I ordered quantity “1”… is that right, or was I supposed to add additional quantities? Like the old BOC where you had to say you wanted 3?
@indiebass quantity is limited to 1. If you are lucky enough to buy more than 1, they will cancel your duplicate orders. They have ways of knowing.
@cengland0 I’m happy to have the one. AND to do it right!
I received my IRK and had a 3 piece set of hard sided luggage. The largest had slight damage but for 5 bucks I cannot complain. I count this one as a win
after like ten years across two websites i finally got one of these stupid things
/giphy annoying-pretty-sprite
@gardenald Same here…about 10 years…I can’t wait to be thoroughly disappointed.
/giphy edgy-owlish-fruit
it’s taken me 5 years to get one of these, yaaay
I am please this time around, no regrets.
Oh and of course I forgot to mention that there was a bag included!
In my original post, I had problems with the other photos. Here’s what it looked like when I opened the box:
and here’s the display of loot:
I already got one today
Boo-effing-yah
/giphy addictive-missing-hammer
My first ever IRK! I can’t wait to feel meh.
I spend more fucking time trying to prove I am not a robot then the worthless fucking IRK is sold out. Happens time after time! So fucking frustrating! BLAME THE FUCKING GOAT!!!
How certain are you of that?
Wrong answers only, huh.
The Devil in Miss Jones pt. III
And now, we wait.
Finally. My last one was a Bandolier of Carrots. It’s been a while, but back on the board! Woo…oops I mean Meh!
@kykazaa My only other… similar item, was Bows on Crows
Forgot my /giphy relaxed-persuasive-nettle

Meh Tote
Meh Travel Mug
Popsicle Gift Bag
HP Monster USB 3.0 Cable 900
bioBidet A3
Hope the bidet works… been talking about getting one!
@ecanada These weirdos who just smear feces all over their asses with a piece of paper have no idea how great those bidets are!
@wifeduck Are they holding your packages in their teeth?
@therealjrn no, but thanks, now I have to purell the thing…I probably should be doing that anyway…
@wifeduck ha ha Nice camera it looks like!
A pair of men’s socks, an iphone 6 case, some weird fruit punch supplement powder for sleep, a pair of adventure time glasses that now that I think of it didn’t break, and one orange bag. Not anything I can use but worth the price of admission all the same.

@Tiamat114 Did you mix it with water? You’re supposed to mix it with water. It’s not like a pixie stick.
@therealjrn I followed the instructions which was something like 1/2 a cup to a 3/4 a cup of water. Probably even used more water than that with one level scoop. That stuff is going straight in the trash. Instant regret kit is an understatement, this is a lingering regret kit!

@Tiamat114 Well… there are other ways… lol
@Tiamat114 Ditto, but substitute a small “comforter” for the glasses. Thanks for the heads-up on the “CRASH” magic powder!
Got mine today;
MSRP on the backpack is crazy (over $100), so sure can’t complain.
Besides my orange bag I had two meh travel cups, two pairs of vaguely Disney-ish socks, two printer usb cables, a universal gps dashboard mount, and a used Pure daily care aromatherapy/essential oil diffuser kit.

what a win.

I work here and getting an IRK bag isnt going to happen… 33 seconds and it was sold out.
@heymahe Are employees allowed to purchase IRKs? I heard not.
OMG! My first IRK!
Finally got one!
OOPS, SORRY. WE’RE UNABLE TO PLACE YOUR ORDER BECAUSE WE’RE NOT SURE WHICH ITEMS YOU’RE TRYING TO BUY.
/giphy garish-windy-nickel
Yay!
Never mind
@beschbruce It’s gonna be hard, but I’ll try.
Blahhh - stupid work meeting distracted me for ONE MINUTE & I missed it. Again.
Got one! Missed the first half day of the meh-rathon, & was worried i blew the best chances to get any.
Man, I went to watch this crazy lady. Missed the IRK. No regret yet…
Received my IRK today and it was crap.
-Standard orange IRK bag
-YEW Halloween tote
-Grace & Bliss 24 piece makeup brush set
-Tudia universal magnetic mount
@sushiboy Yay! Say…do you know NoodleBoy?

30 seconds after it loaded in! Missed it!
@SGIG Too slow. Click faster.
“It worked!”
Whee! Now I’m sad.
Defeated by the captcha again.
Beep beep boop boop. (I assume if you failed CAPTCHA you now understand Robot.)
@mediocrebot I passed it, I am not a robot! It just choked on how incredibly human I am.
That sounds like something a robot would say.
Dang captcha impeded my purchase. Next time!
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
I’ll never get why people want these
@dam091 It’s easier to click some buttons than it is to fish for
trashtreasures from your local dumpster.@dam091 I miss the days of a pallet of broken TVs.
@dam091 If I had a kid, I would have gotten more than the $5 worth out of the bag from the one I got previously. As is I about broke even. And it’s fun
What? I can only buy one on Meh’s special day? This is no party!
Grrrrr nope not this time
Woohoo! First time I got one in years!
Moar goat blame!
Got em.
/giphy Flawed-Chapped-Arsenic
How many of these do you guys have? Is that like 800 already?
Yay! Now I can get back to work!
/giphy pleasing-quaint-carbon
WTH??!
Received a message saying I’m not able to buy any more is these IRK’s???!
The last one I bought was on April Fools - this is a sick, cruel joke MEH!!!
Everything that goes wrong today was definitely part of the plan.
@trlenoir I’ll look into this for you.
@Thumperchick I think it had something to do with my cache. Gouda scored one earlier and I didn’t clear the cache. After I received the message - I cleared out the browsing history and I scored the 11:45 IRK
/giphy magic
@trlenoir ah, glad to know you were able to order.
Finally beat the captcha hell!
/giphy cursive-independent-skunk
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
its not working
doesn’t show sold out but won’t add to my cart
Meh
@allergycheryl Cart? What site are you on? Meh doesn’t have a cart.
@cengland0 sure it does, Meh uses a one page checkout where when you complete the call to action it creates a cart with a one page checkout that is prefilled with your information then you click BUY IT ALREADY to complete purchase
Yay! Even with crappy wifi and 3G I was able to get in on this!
/giphy dejected-daring-tarzan
What is an IRK?
@beschbruce Instant Regret Kit. It is a bunch of crap that they found on the warehouse floor and swept into boxes to sell to customers. You never know what you’ll get. Could be something good, could be something broken. Expect garbage and if you get something nice, you lucked out.
YESSSS
/giphy thoughtful-bared-rib
There’s not really any point to having the IRK deals last 15 seconds, let alone 15 minutes
@geekahedron For the 200 people that were quick enough to get it within that 15 seconds, it had a point.
Oh how things have changed. They used to tell us the weight, now I can’t find it on the USPS site. So Meh.
Got my shipping notification today. Meh.
HA!
Got mine today… guess i will put wrinkle cream on wife while she sleeps… if she wakes up i’ll just say it was semen.
@chickenherpe You like to live dangerously don’t you.
