I have been sick the entire three-day weekend and I wasn’t able to keep up with the Meh-rathon today since I was still recovering, but I managed to snag this last-chance IRK, which is easily the highlight of my crap-tastic weekend.
@juststephen@mrchristian happened to me too, today, on two different IRKs, the last one I lucked out - but only because I tried in two different browsers at the same time - it should not be that hard.
Was all prepped, logged out and back into account just prior, ready to go! Order page lagged all to hell, the “I’m not a robot” refused to click and after it did it kept removing itself after a long pause, telling me I hadn’t checked the damn thing.
Leaped onto my desktop, can’t remember changed password!! F@#$! Back to phone, zero hope left it’s gonna happen, because, it’s been like almost 2 minutes now…but, refresh, check stupid robot box and try one last time…and, holy SchNikes, VICTORY!!!
@PHRoG I’m salty about this You had to time to enter your password, wrong, and still get it. I was logged in and trying my darndest the moment it rolled over and the site was giving me the middle finger in several different fashions.
@mrchristian totally feel ya brother…same exact thing happened to me on the Halloween one. I was primed and ready for every-single-one but got slammed with errors till gone.
Pretty sure they’re tracking us, making us all jump through silly hoops while getting smashed and laughing at us.
@PHRoG If there were a Texas sized conspiracy it might almost be worth it… just frustrated that this is like two (maybe even three??) mehrathons in a row where I’ve failed to obtain a box of useless junk. Mostly annoyed with myself for even caring about it, since I know full well the contents will all just end up in my box o’ random stuff that I use for white elephants / filler when I mail people things.
I got mine last night. I was wondering why they delivered a cookware set box to my house with a handle stabbing out the side. xD No internal packing material.
Granite King 10pc Cook Set
Ripped open wireless earbud box with earbud pieces randomly strewn around inside the cook set box (I don’t like earbuds anyway.)
A set of Monster Earbuds that might be new.
Clutch Purse
Hair clip card with two clips missing. xD
Irk Bag
Some of it is just comical, but hey I got my 5 bucks worth if even one of the pans is undamaged. (And I’m somewhat sure they survived.)
Can’t believe I got one - when I first clicked on the button nothing happened. So I clicked again and again and again etc. Finally it worked and I actually was successful in getting one. I guess the majority of the people must have given up and gone to bed not expecting another one to come on. Only way I can think of getting one after being so late in getting through.
Got mine tonight!
Diffuser (WITH TWO OILS )
Wallet with device charger (battery )

IRK Bag
Large Solo cup box arrived! (Classy!) Contained 1x printer USB cord 1x windshield car phone mount and 1x Nespresso verisma coffee maker, recertified and recently used, hopefully it works! And 1x Irk bag.
WTH - get the same error about a lot of people ordering - go through captcha again then get the WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS PROCESSING YOUR ORDER then the SOLD OUT message. What gives?
At least I’ll save $5 when I cancel my membership that I forgot I had when I get refunded for not using it the prior month. I thought I canceled it a while back.
Weird. It would never go through. Just always the bar endlessly loading and then eventually timing out “there must have been a problem.” Over and over until it sold out. I’ve never had a problem with servers or whatever on Meh. I’m on fiber. Captcha wasn’t an issue. Would just never go through.
Forgot to click the shipping option on the previous one, which was enough delay to sell out. But made it on this one - even though the multiple green moving bar made me doubt it would work. Now, if it only came with some of the items displayed in the photo of the bag!
I got the error twice, was able to open a second tab and click to buy but it errors out again… TWICE!
Man it’s frustrating to wait all day, refreshing and hoping to get one. Finally able to get it in the bag and click the necessary items like captcha and get the errors until sold out.
@support I understand those issues, but it doesn’t make me feel better. There are ways to handle extra loads during times like that. And if that’s not possible limiting the time before someone who did get one can get another at least helps spread it out better.
@rapture7@support People can’t get two. Meh won’t let them - they cancel them. However someone posted a screen where it told someone (who hadn’t gotten one though) that they can’t buy a second so maybe that is actually working for those who already had one too.
@ladyb95 I am guessing that they hired another employee?Thats what they said on tonight’s new meh—course they drowned him modeling the featured product
@AttyVette Nice thank you! So instead of making new Irk videos they invested that money in hiring a new employee thus making our economy stronger! Way to go Meh

Whee! I had to miss most of the offerings today and am shocked I actually managed to get one. Thanks, Meh!
/giphy everlasting-bowed-waffle
@peaceetc Yay!
/giphy confusing-enticing-shape
@jpaz heh
Got one of the last! Now this will be all the broken junk at the bottom of the barrel
I got my first instant regret kit.
@KenTForce My condolences.
Randomly decided to check at the right time. Got one. After I told myself I wouldn’t waste the $5
A million captcha timed out errors = no IRK.
@juststephen I got that, and this:
I’ve kind of gone past the point of “haha it’s terrible but that’s meh!” to “this is stupid and just makes me angry over something stupid”
@juststephen @mrchristian happened to me too, today, on two different IRKs, the last one I lucked out - but only because I tried in two different browsers at the same time - it should not be that hard.
Holy crap that was a wild ride!

@mrchristian @PHRoG I’m with you, I get errors twice across two separate tabs and he can go through that and get in… nice

Woo-hoo! Safari glitched again on the CAPTCHA - but I hopped over to firefox and…

@accumulator Username checks out.
So we end with 12m 30s of watching the timer - maybe should’ve put it up just for the last 2 minutes …
/giphy frenzy
Holy crap, I got one!!!
/giphy necrotic-testy-walrus
woo hoo I got one
@butthole69 Are you related to @carl669?
Was busy today figured I missed them all, and got lucky.

Wow, way to finish strong meh!
WOW
Green scroll bar of anxiety
2 minutes and still not sold out
(sold out about 2:35-2:40 in)
@datruandi And counting…
Two whole minutes and still not sold out? I think I’m about to have a heart attack!
/giphy savory-thievish-lemur
what the “x minutes and still not sold out” people fail to recognize is that there are thousands of us waiting for a green scroll bar to let us down.

@RCFlyer people go to bed before the new deal goes up?
Damn it son of a bitch! It did it again.
“I cannot buy any more of these”
Recaptcha
“These are popular and the site is busy. Try again”
Recaptcha
“Something went wrong with your order.”
Recaptcha
“Sold Out.”
Oh and I also had one where the captcha timed out and I just had to do it again and continue. Wow, just wow.
/giphy hellish-last-chicken
Can’t believe I got one! I haven’t seen them last longer than a minute in a long time!
Can I have Brent’s locker?

My order tried to go through about four times before it eventually said they were sold out.
Oh well, not this time… green bar, green bar, green bar, green bar, problem with order, are you a robot, green bar, green bar, green bar, sold out
Sold out as Re captcha timed out.
New laptop. I had to search for a USB stick that had the password! Sold out. nutz, but not surprised.

My wife is going to kill me. Does that count towards regret?

Are you a robot?
I’ve been busy as hell all day and just barely missed #4, so I was shocked after the reCaptcha errored out twice that I got one!

Good luck!
First and last item of the Mehrathon!
Knew I should way til the bell

/giphy mostly-fastest-island
Welp, too bad the site is garbage at handling large traffic.
@TOaFK stupid, they did it on purpose. They make the site glitchy and captcha filled in purpose when it comes to this product. You sound dumb
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
Maybe no one thought they’d be selling them this late.
Wow, surprised to see another and they didn’t sell out as fast as I would have thought
Screwed by the captcha looking for crosswalks
@mehpocalypse Why is captcha looking for crosswalks?
Beep beep boop boop. (I assume if you failed CAPTCHA you now understand Robot.)
Yeesss!!!
Well, that was bullshit. Errors, multiple captcha, reloads. And sold out.
WTH - get the same error about a lot of people ordering - go through captcha again then get the WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS PROCESSING YOUR ORDER then the SOLD OUT message. What gives?
@goudaman40 it only happens on irks—-that’s the sad part
@AttyVette @goudaman40 Irks are the only items with that kind of traffic.
Same old same old —-
Wait… I missed it? What was the huge announcement? Someone please tell me!
Oh, and, Yay?
/giphy heavenly-benign-offer
missed it again!
At least I’ll save $5 when I cancel my membership that I forgot I had when I get refunded for not using it the prior month. I thought I canceled it a while back.

Sold out in the amount of time it took to log in. Did you only have like 5 of them? Meh indeed.
@1bmf This round, they sold 223. Pro Tip: Log in before it shows up so you’re ready to make the purchase.
I got the error twice, was able to open a second tab and click to buy but it errors out again… TWICE!
Man it’s frustrating to wait all day, refreshing and hoping to get one. Finally able to get it in the bag and click the necessary items like captcha and get the errors until sold out.
@rapture7 Too many people trying to buy all in a couple seconds. Server cannot handle the load.
@support I understand those issues, but it doesn’t make me feel better. There are ways to handle extra loads during times like that. And if that’s not possible limiting the time before someone who did get one can get another at least helps spread it out better.

After looking at that IRK bag for a bit, I found myself wondering whether McDonald’s might sue Meh. because of the golden arches handles.
Aw, man. I kinda wanted to maybe not regret getting something here in the last few minutes…
Ok what was the huge announcement that I missed??
@ladyb95 I am guessing that they hired another employee?Thats what they said on tonight’s new meh—course they drowned him modeling the featured product
@AttyVette Nice thank you! So instead of making new Irk videos they invested that money in hiring a new employee thus making our economy stronger! Way to go Meh
@ladyb95 it probably was a JOKE though and not true
@AttyVette Goodbye Brent! It’s just one of the many job hazards when you work for Meh
@ladyb95 company name change. Look at the “news” thread
