@GatorFL@xterraguy It will let you buy it but then a manual scrub by an employee will result in the duplicates being canceled and that will cause some people to not receive one.
@blaineg They seems to come up at the same time each methathon-the 2nd and 4th item after 12 AM. At noon EST. At 4 PM for VMP people. And right before midnight-means 5 @ 200=1,000 unless they have more crap than usual. Those are the big 5 predictable times.
Happy birthday, Meh! I was excited to celebrate my birthday with you, but apparently I’m a robit and am not fast enough for the IRKs. No birthday for robits.
I’ve been trying to get one of these bags for years why?I have no idea just $5 worth of juunk however if they really want to be fair about it they should just take the longest VMP members and select randomly and just send them one for free that would be nice that would be good customer relations
Refreshed, saw the IRK, clicked the button, the order window popped up saying “you have to tell us if you’re a robot” but there was not “I’m not a robot” button! What do I do? Do I lie and say I’m a robot just to continue the process? But wait, there’s not “I am a robot” button either! No buttons at all!
Just as I was despairing over the buttonless white box before me, the page filled up and my pre-saved address and credit card information appeared. I scrolled down, and sure enough, the “I’m not a robot” checkbox was there. Interestingly, still no “I am a robot” button. I’m not sure how a robot should make the aforementioned declaration. That doesn’t matter now! Click the button, because I am in fact not a robot!
Finally, the oversized green button reflected my inner turmoil! No time to debate! “Yes! Fine! Just buy it already!” I clicked the button, and watched breathlessly as the button turned white, and green slowly seeped in from a hole on the left-hand side, filling the button again with green – and started over, white and filling to green, over and over again. What is happening? Will the button stop filling?
Oh yeah, then it worked and successfully placed my order.
The tension and turmoil faded away and I basked awash in the emotion that was promised and dangled before my face so many times today and before today. Instant regret.
Ha. I saw the grocery bag pop up and by the time I got to the Meh page, and IRK was up. Thanks to my cat like reflexes on the captcha, and luck…mostly luck…I scored one. My 20th wedding anniversary is today, you think I can just tell my wife this is her present, or will she just be IRK’d? Oh well. Fancy dinner at KFC it is.
Good luck today everyone.
This is my first one since the bag of crap from woot maybe 10 years ago? Still have that rio ce2100 2.5gb mp3 player, although you have to have the ear jack in just the right spot.
Just got a package today had a 6-7 year old(my guess since it shows an iphone5 sympbol on it) pioneer receiver. Hope I get another package as I did not get a yellow bag, but definitely worth 5 bucks
@roscoe_baby OMG those flower things have been around for years. I got one of those around the first year when they were sending out fuku’s. If it works you certainly scored with the receiver!!
Somebody tell me that I’m not the only one still in processing status. It would go along way in assisting with my patience. And believe me I’m trying to be patient.
@davidwr99@Kidsandliz I need to find the shipping thread. I think mine is lost in shipping. lol. It’s been stuck in the ATL hub for over a week and hasn’t moved since then.
2 bungee phone charging cables, a thank you gift bag, an orange irk meh bag, HP sub printer cable, broken suction cup magnetic phone mount for car, and a box of magic washberries that i would not trust in my washing machine
Hmmm…left for vacation, mail on hold. The post office apparently didn’t hold it, so the porch pirates must have gotten me.
Is it ok to regret not getting the instant regret kit?
BTW, I almost ordered the Polk speakers since someone informed me the post office would hold it…but based on my regret kit, I’m glad I didn’t. So warning…
@eeterrific Whooops! Spoke too soon. Delivered the day AFTER my hold had expired. Apparently they thought I might not be home on my expiration date, so held it til the next day. Thanks post office!
1 Ten-foot smartphone charge and sync bungee cables
8 Date Rape test kits
1 HDMI cable (monster!)
1 Pioneer VSX-524-k AV
1 Orange IRK bag
The AV is interesting…circa 2013, I think. No networking, including bluetooth. (Did meh realize this thing didn’t have bluetooth?) On the other hand, I had purchased a chromecast audio last year when google discontinued them for $10. I happened to have a 3.5mm to RCA cable, connected it, and now I can youtube or pandora to it. However, I don’t have speakers for it, and I’m using headphones for sound. Soooo…meh, if you’re listening, put those polk speakers you had a while ago up for sale again, and I’ll give it a whirl. The other thing…the only way to completely set it up is with a video component connection to a tv. Can’t set it up with HDMI. No use doing it until I have speakers. Oh, other thing…you can connect your iPod to it via USB, and use your iPod controls. Of course that means you have to be really close to the unit to do that.

Already got one today
@xterraguy It let you buy more than one?
@GatorFL @xterraguy It will let you buy it but then a manual scrub by an employee will result in the duplicates being canceled and that will cause some people to not receive one.
@GatorFL No, I tried for another earlier and it wouldn’t let me buy it, much less kick it back afterward.
I don’t know why, but I bought one
woo hoo
/giphy distressed-internal-hummingbird
Finally got my first one in several years
Woo!
/giphy paunchy-papery-baboon
Suck it, work stuff. I finally got one!
Dang goat!
/giphy fanciful-definite-net
@narfcake yea!
@Kidsandliz I was actually saying noooo! when the progress bar was hesitating at first!
Awww, the green bar filled up and then said “sorry, sold out.” So close!
@Ozzie2191 Well they do seem to be having a lot more of them this time around.
/giphy mostly dreary recess
Capcha too slow to load! fuuuuu
Finally
/giphy brainy-spiky-fritter
This sure seems like A LOT of IRKs, which probably means there is an increased probability of average regret.
Had it ready to go and the wrong card was on file.
/giphy four-letter-words
@mtn3pitt I am having trouble working out my feelings about this gif.
@mtn3pitt You’re allowed to say fuck here.
@arielleslie Not what I expected but it is what RNGesus provided.
Whew, now I can relax the rest of the day. I really didn’t expect another one to come up so soon.
/giphy judicial-fussy-existence
@blaineg Though giphy doesn’t seem to like me today.
@blaineg They seems to come up at the same time each methathon-the 2nd and 4th item after 12 AM. At noon EST. At 4 PM for VMP people. And right before midnight-means 5 @ 200=1,000 unless they have more crap than usual. Those are the big 5 predictable times.
@blaineg
/giphy judicial-fussy-existence
@blaineg Ok, I’ll take it.
@therealjrn
@Barney’s famous too! Well, more famous.
I can’t believe I got one. My first IRK. Happy Birthday MEH!
Sweet baby Jesus on the cross you guys are fast.
Finally got one!!!
/giphy elaborate-bodacious-pie
Woohoo it worked!!!
/giphy decorative-diligent-pot
Meh is certainly being generous this time around with so many of them so often!!! Thanks!
@Kidsandliz But is “generous” a good description?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Kidsandliz Generous or that they will all be extra crappy containing just a single meh branded toothbrush.
Gotta hand it to Meh, they really are pulling out all the IRKs.
How many times have IRK been sold today?
@aasawick a lot
@aasawick 6 times so far. I expect more such as the VMP only sale and one just before midnight.
Just got this one! Now my mehmories are complete!
Well crap. The ReCaptcha delayed me long enough that it sold out. I am bummed.
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
@lyoness If you get a captcha forget it-they are already sold out. If you click on I am not a robot and it starts processing-you have a chance.
I installed CAPTCHA to save my fellow robots from wasting money on this crap.
/giphy watery-corrupt-owner
Happy Birthday meh!
I finally lost my Irk-ginity.
/giphy domestic-murky-toothpaste
@mehcuda67 A toothbrush. How fitting!
How many did you have??? I got to the I am not a robot button in a few seconds and it was gone.
That sounds like something a robot would say.
@smilingjack So far 200 per IRK (+/- 1).
Can you only capture one IRK in a day? Can I buy more than one? Like Pokemon?
@stevcruise Only one, unless things have changed. Additional IRKs will be cancelled.
Got eem!
Omg my first one! I’m no longer a IRK virgin! I feel so violated and I love it!
/giphy brassy-derelict-porcupine
@wood1291 The regret will come once you receive it.
Got it happy birthday Meh. Thanks
Wooo my 2nd career IRK (3rd if you count Fukobukuro)
Suprised I got one after a bit of a drought the last few times. My first IRK though!
I finally got one!
/giphy heartbroken-nasally-throne
First one !
Happy birthday, Meh! I was excited to celebrate my birthday with you, but apparently I’m a robit and am not fast enough for the IRKs. No birthday for robits.

You may have failed CAPTCHA but on the upside, you’re less of a human.
@jzmacdaddy Happy anniversary! Whether or not to use this as a gift – Ask yourself this, “Do I want to remain married?” Yeah, it’s up to you.
/giphy cordially-ambivalent-mango
The problem is once again, it just pissed me off
@rsilbiger at least you’re ALLOWED to buy one
@capguncowboy Actually not, it just teased me, then ‘sold out’. low rent woot
This is my first one since the bag of crap from woot maybe 10 years ago? Still have that rio ce2100 2.5gb mp3 player, although you have to have the ear jack in just the right spot.

Honestly just surprised that I got one.

@asgeek Did you open it?
After being delayed by Hurricane/Tropical Storm Barry, my IRK arrived.
I have:
4 packs of flower wall art (my friend said at least they all match)
2 Ten-foot smartphone charge and sync bungee cables
60 Date Rape test kits
1 USB Cable
1 Pioneer VSX-524-k receiver (if it works it is an upgrade to the 20-yr-old receiver I currently have)
1 Orange IRK bag (can’t wait for Halloween!)
Definitely worth the $5.]

@roscoe_baby OMG those flower things have been around for years. I got one of those around the first year when they were sending out fuku’s. If it works you certainly scored with the receiver!!
There is, by the way, a reveal thread.
@Kidsandliz Thanks posted in correct thread.
@roscoe_baby that’s exactly what I got, except with just one charging cable, no wall art, and the receiver still had the newegg RMA label on the box
Somebody tell me that I’m not the only one still in processing status. It would go along way in assisting with my patience. And believe me I’m trying to be patient.
@davidwr99 there is a shipping thread somewhere
