@telepheedian didn’t get one before, so that’s not it. Not sure what the actual problem is on my laptop, but I just tried my phone and amazingly got one minutes later! Can’t believe they were still available!
@mfladd more than I expected. I purchased mine before the VMP only sale so I didn’t try for a second one because I know duplicates would be canceled and it would leave the quantity short for other people.
@FeralRants I would have left it just to see if it slips through the scrubbing. Someone deletes duplicates and probably employee purchases before sending them out. Not sure how that works.
@Robb You’re a regular member, not a VMP. You have a heart in your shield logo and VMP’s have a small v. You pay $4.99/month for your membership and VMPs pay $5/month. VMP is closed to new members and anyone that leaves cannot get back in. They are grandfathered in an old plan that no longer is available to new people.
@Robb At least you have a good attitude about it. Others seem pissed off. I also have my Meh socks, never worn, still in mint condition. I don’t have the heart to wear them yet.
@therealjrn Hey, you remember that was me. Good memory.
I was whispered by a member that wanted my Kickstarter shirts and I mailed them out today. I would rather make someone happy with them than sitting in my drawer for another 5 years.
@cengland0 my meh socks I got for VMP and then a pair I got in a fuku were also sent out in mehrican exchanges. They were too big to wear. So, like you, I figured someone should enjoy them.

@moose,
From your beginnings as a humble lamp designer to a shining meh.com superstar, you continue to light up our lives with your contributions to the world of meh. Seems like you get all awkward and sad sometimes, but that’s how we know you’re a real person. Keep shining bright, my fancy fellow.

@therealjrn Makes perfect sense when you see the profile. I wouldn’t keep paying for membership either. In fact, I don’t think I would have started at all unless I bought at least one item.

@moose. Hey, remember that time you conn-vinced a number of us to play some game called golf blitz with promises of fun and contests and such? And then you disappeared from it? Yeah that was great…ALL HAIL MOOSE!
Been buying crap since 2014. Was vmp member then got tired of getting screwed out of fukus and fukos so i let membership expire. NOW vmps get all the special considerations I should of been getting. Now i am paying membership again but am not a vmp… Cry bitch whine…
@brainmist yes. I buy stuff all year long save it and wrap it to give as Christmas presents I do not go Christmas shopping every one get a very mehrry Christmas
Thought I missed the next to last one, but it turned up in my email and on my ordered list!
very confusing - pretty sure meh never said "congrats, you got one.
@riceatusc same, I’m worried about what this means… I’ve never had a Fuku/Fuko/IRK ship this fast. Hell, most non-special meh packages don’t ship this quickly.
Well mine says delivered but it’s not here. I have the most trouble getting my meh packages lately since they’ve changed to USPS. I’ve had to get them from the neighbors on multiple occasions because of printer issues in the meh warehouse.
Mine arrived – too soon for my taste. I want time to really enjoy the anticipation before the Regret kicks in. Alas.
In the box:
A very big IRK bag. Thanks! Strangely, I actually needed a nice big tote bag.
A Propel Batwing drone that I can’t get to sync. The drone lights up, the remote lights up, but they won’t talk to each other. It will probably go in the trash.
A tin of “Crash” sleep supplements from “ProSupps”, containing valerian root, "adrenal system support, Passion Fruit extract, etc. I sleep like a fitful child, so I’ll try it, what the hell.
Four orange “Biner Sporks” from Blue Sky Gear. BPA free, they have a garbagey little carabiner on the handle (thus “biner”), but seem to be built well enough to last for an eternity. Going in my earthquake survival drawer.
A set of Officially-Licensed-by-Ferrari “Flashing Wheels”, that you attach to your feet and, uh, roll around and shit while the LEDs on the wheels light up. They are too small for my feet, so they’re going to Goodwill. Plus I am clumsy as hell, and know a broken-femur-in-waiting when I see one.

@D_a_v_e No shit, right? Again! I am happy for those who might have missed the last one.

@justintyme With the amount they’re selling, my guess is everyone who buys one is getting a bag and pencil shavings.

@chienfou happy pre-birthday to me!
Does that mean we can buy more than one?
@D_a_v_e. Probs not
@arbdef @D_a_v_e wouldn’t let me
@D_a_v_e Nope.

@dino2269 Are you a robot? You can’t buy this if you’re a robot.
I want regret
YAY!
Can’t believe I actually got one!
YES! I mean… oh no!!
WTF. Every time I click on the captcha the box goes blank with no way to submit it… grrrrrrr…
Beep beep boop boop. (I assume if you failed CAPTCHA you now understand Robot.)
@eVil I can only assume this is how they’re filtering people who have already bought one today, I bought a normal one earlier without issue.
@telepheedian didn’t get one before, so that’s not it. Not sure what the actual problem is on my laptop, but I just tried my phone and amazingly got one minutes later! Can’t believe they were still available!
@eVil @telepheedian Congrats! They set aside quite a few for the V’s this time.
@mfladd more than I expected. I purchased mine before the VMP only sale so I didn’t try for a second one because I know duplicates would be canceled and it would leave the quantity short for other people.
Can’t buy another one if i bought one earlier today?
@digitaldendrite You are a VMP… you should know better.
/giphy damn-straight
@todaresq I think I’ve managed to buy one in 3 years so…not so much.
I was on time again, but I am lower class non-VMP. To the VMP go the spoil(ed )s(oggy things)!
@cfg83 Sorry.
We V’s are just cranky and old. You are better off not being one of us any way.
@mfladd I see your grumpy old man and raise you a GOML!
I won’t spend 2 dollars on stickers but I will spend 5 dollars on complete garbage.
@matttt on in my case… I’ll do both. Ok, I’m weak. Sue me!
@matttt I have a feeling my IRK will be filled with the Meh stickers I splurged on.
Finally! Much regret!

They set aside 400 for vmp? lol that seems like a mistake ?

/giphy because we’re worth it
@capguncowboy
a glorious mistake!
Well shit, I didn’t expect to get one this time around.
Thanks Meh
/giphy arid-invisible-balloon
My first IRK, and I work here.
@FeralRants Will it be canceled? I thought employees were exempt from buying IRKs.
@FeralRants i’m sorry for what you will receive. hopefully it’s not something off of your desk like it was for me when i worked there.
@cengland0 You knew that before I did. Lol, just cancelled it myself.
@katylava Oh snap, your notes helped me a ton. When I started here.
@FeralRants I would have left it just to see if it slips through the scrubbing. Someone deletes duplicates and probably employee purchases before sending them out. Not sure how that works.
@cengland0 Yea, wulf gave me an annoyed look while I was happy about it and told me.
@FeralRants LOL. You’re supposed to keep quiet about these things.
@FeralRants i am an excellent note writer
@cengland0 /shrug
Only one per person, thought maybe I could use my very mediocre status to feel a second round of regret

@cengland0 I realized that after I posted this.
That’s what I get for cancelling VMP a few months ago after having it for nearly 5 years
BUT AT LEAST I STILL HAVE MY MEH SOCKS!
@Robb At least you have a good attitude about it. Others seem pissed off. I also have my Meh socks, never worn, still in mint condition. I don’t have the heart to wear them yet.
@cengland0 Put them with your tshirts in the safe deposit

I’ve been here since 7/10/14 and have no plans on leaving. Here’s to many more chances!

3 minuets in and still about 50 left!

@cengland0 Umm…they are not even a member now. Ex-member according to the Poo badge.
@therealjrn It wasn’t poo when I typed it. I think that person canceled membership just now in anger.
@cengland0 @therealjrn That was a quick exit.
@cengland0 @therealjrn also seems to not have bought much stuff

@brainmist yes. I buy stuff all year long save it and wrap it to give as Christmas presents I do not go Christmas shopping every one get a very mehrry Christmas
Aww thanks @dseanadams! I appreciate you too. Sorry if some of the typos I can get snarky about are yours.
Looks like this ended up in the wrong IRK thread. I blame the goat.
Thanks for taking care of the VMPs. Should have always been this way, but better late than never. Looks like almost everyone got one.
I guess if I can’t get the calendar back up…I’ll accept an irk instead…
@amehzinggrace Yay!
Hooray, finally got one! Huge thanks to meh for enabling poor decisions at cutthroat prices.
I got one! Finally! I was shopping, my inner Irk whispered in my ear, and mobile captcha did not blockade me.
Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.

@CaptAmehrican there is already one going. Saw it after I posted here.
@connorbush me too i feel bad but had not seen it. Meh a culba ie blame the goat
mine’s sitting in ATL waiting to go to USPS. Should be Mon or maybe Tues before I regret my order fully…

Not bad! My regret is rather low.
Pthagh. That “Crash” stuff is hella nasty, I may need to buy some milk to disguise the taste.
I got some used headphones, a heated blanket, and a very used panasonic epilator complete with someone elses hair. Lots of it. And lots of regret.
