Do people really not understand that the captcha doesn’t just randomly show up for IRKs? It’s built in for IRK deals to keep people from robotting their way into getting them. Captcha doesn’t show up for anything other than IRKs. It doesn’t matter what else you bought or how many purchases you made. You’re still getting a captcha for IRKs.
@melonscoop Hmmmm. I got some decent Boom Commander in-ear Headphones 1/8" jack in my last IRK equivalent. Two coffee mugs, one with a broken handle, a few other things. Was worth the $5. So I’ve got 1 data point that says I’ll get something “good.”
Got one! Haven’t even unboxed my last one because Covid. At least I was able to procure it whilst sitting outside on my deck.

I don’t have to prove I’m not a robot to buy screen wipes, but I do for a regret kit. Boo, hiss, what’s a crosswalk anyway? You won’t need to identify pictures of them when the robots take over.
@Kidsandliz Nah, my company (and my boss in particular) is really cool. It was interesting though as I was demoing something on my main screen, but I had Meh on the other screen. Luckily I was waiting for something to load on the main screen and had a couple seconds to hit refresh a few times, click buy, captcha box, then “yes, fine…”, lol.
Why the fuck did it ask my to verify that I’m human and click on Stupid pictures when it hasn’t with the other 5 things I’ve purchased today. I could have got one if it wasn’t for that fucking shit. What the hell meh! I’m fucking pissed. I’ve wasted my whole day for this shit.
@doctafras Random junk and an irk bag. Could be broken stuff (some of which likely was put in the box unbroken but no packing materials are put in there), could be some decent stuff, returned defective stuff, returned not defective stuff, a jackpot item, junk that doesn’t sell out on any of their sites, stuff they bought way too much of or stuff that was an opps and no one wants…could be a mix of anything. No returns, no buy backs, no nothing - well unless your irk bag is missing. They will send you one if it is. You get what you get.
Wow Meh, you are really encouraging me to travel more. For my 2nd Fukubukuro I received an entire 3 piece hard shell luggage set. For my previous IRK I received a hard shell carryone. For this IRK I received a Joy & Iman Weekender bag. Where should I go next?
Trash site works against me after I click buy. Try to confirm I’m not a robot, but apparently that’s a good time to load pay off the page and make me select the cc info box. Instinctively hit the back button on my phone cause I’m an idiot and end up on the main page. Know it’s too late but try Again and it let’s me until the buy screen so I foolishly get my hopes up. Sold out… I cry.
Just ordered an IRK and the last IRK I bought hasn’t even arrived yet. I had hoped it would show up today but it will probably be Monday. #firstmehproblems
I didn’t have time to change the address from my daughter’s to mine and she lives on the opposite side of the country. She’s either going to think I don’t love her anymore because I sent her a bag of crap or it’s going to be a good irk and still didn’t get one.
I think Meh is having a laugh at my expense. This is the 4th Fuko/IRK I’ve received that is almost exclusively a food saver. My food saves itself thank you very much. I don’t need no more food savers!
Got mine today. It had the following:
Air fryer
car USB charger (dual USB ports!)
Apple lightning charger cord
a necklace with 2 pendants
a fidget spinner

You may have failed CAPTCHA but on the upside, you’re less of a human.
@warpedrotors Catching IRKs is an art that takes years of refinement.
@kyanostiger are you a bot? Did you read what I posted?
@mediocrebot I didn’t fail captcha, you fucking fuck. I was explaining captcha to the morons.
Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.
@warpedrotors I did, and I don’t understand your hostility over it.
/giphy shrug
@warpedrotors You do realize that you just cussed out a robot I assume!!
You guys! FOR YEARS, I’ve tried to get one of these. I actually got one just now. It was a good quarantine day.
I wish this were all the data, just for the oddity of it
@Seeds Ohio got that good internet.

Two regrets in a month. Wicked. Hope I get something good!
@ooglek Your only chance of getting something good… is by not bying an IRK.
@melonscoop Hmmmm. I got some decent Boom Commander in-ear Headphones 1/8" jack in my last IRK equivalent. Two coffee mugs, one with a broken handle, a few other things. Was worth the $5. So I’ve got 1 data point that says I’ll get something “good.”

@james_hardiman Of course not, robots need screen wipes for their optical sensors.
Got one… while I was in a meeting… and talking… oh, and I was screen sharing.
Thank God for dual monitors. hahaha
@jsh139 you are really lucky you didn’t get caught. I could just see you trying to explain what exactly you were trying to buy on company time
@Kidsandliz Nah, my company (and my boss in particular) is really cool. It was interesting though as I was demoing something on my main screen, but I had Meh on the other screen.

As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
Have kept my perfect record on IRK bags, 5 tried and 5 missed. Does that count for anything?
Why the fuck did it ask my to verify that I’m human and click on Stupid pictures when it hasn’t with the other 5 things I’ve purchased today. I could have got one if it wasn’t for that fucking shit. What the hell meh! I’m fucking pissed. I’ve wasted my whole day for this shit.
@Star2236 My guess would be to prevent the use of bots to grab an IRK.
/giphy national-mouthy-prose
Foiled by the captcha!
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.

STUPID CAPTCHA!!! I literally clicked as soon as it refreshed to this deal. UGH
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.
/giphy sum bitch
So angry… it has not asked me to verify I’m a human on any order I’ve placed today, except this one.
Missed it being polite and writing a comment on the last item. Oh well. Time to garb up and go back to being semi-essential.
/giphy gloating-statuesque-parsnip
My streak continues
Wow, that one lasted almost 45 seconds.
i get distracted for five minutes and miss an irk
this has happened like three times already today
@gardenald
/giphy must focus
Omg my phone LITERALLY rang as the timer was switching to 00. I had to answer, refresh my screen and do captcha all at the same time
The result…

What comes in those kits? is it all just random things?

@doctafras Very random. Could be utter garbage, could be worth a fair amount. Could be worth a laugh, could be disappointment.
I actually got a broken piece of a shot glass (among other stuff) in one.

@nemo2005 I hear Grapevine TX is nice this time of year.
@nemo2005 Mine apparently has been sitting there since the 6th.
EDIT: I take that back. Greenwood, IN since the 6th.
@Ignorant @nemo2005 I hear Greenwood, IN is nice as well. Packages seem to be in love with that city and are overstaying their allotted time there.

Missed it by that much!
@cfg83 me too. so close!!
@moonhat There were soooo many IRKs today. Is there such a thing as too many IRKs?
Doh.
damn that went fast
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Gah missed it
YYYYYAYHAHHFHDHFDSKJHFJKDSHFKJDHJKFhksjDHFksds
I’ve been waiting all day and darn robot check got me. I clicked buy without doing the captcha!
Dang, I could not have refreshed or clicked any quicker. Watched it turn after buying it…15 secs later whoops sold out. Next time!
Ugh. I tried as soon as it came out and didn’t process in time.
Internet too slow and it timed out on me. Needed the adrenaline boost to wake up so it’s not all bad.
I haven’t been captcha’d in a long time… I guess I was due.
/giphy angry
You may have failed CAPTCHA but on the upside, you’re less of a human.
@jdude727 Neither had I and I have gotten it each time I’ve tried to buy this time around.
For real why does it always ask to prove not a robot just for the IRK???
@nickm461 I’m glad it does to be honest, or the only people getting them would be people who write bots to pick them up.
@OnionSoup I def don’t want bots to get it, I guess I don’t understand how bots work to buy IRKs! Lol
Damnit! Thought I was fast enough.
Freakin-A!!! 7 captcha’s! WTF!
Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.
Why would I suddenly have to enter my credit card info again?
No pictures to click, but checkout screen took a couple of seconds to load.
Oh well. Less junk to deal with.
Dammit
nope…not this time
Hahaha. It’s probably filled with Trac-R and speks
Check Ebay for IRK re-sells
Glad it’s not just me. Thought I finally had one and it wants my credit card again. By the time i do that they’re all gone. I call shenanigans.
How the heck do I get through the captcha then have to retype my cc # when i’ve been using it all day on here?! So frustrating!
Beep beep boop boop. (I assume if you failed CAPTCHA you now understand Robot.)
fuck me yet again… misse dthat one… page never refreshed
Trash site works against me after I click buy. Try to confirm I’m not a robot, but apparently that’s a good time to load pay off the page and make me select the cc info box.

@TOaFK Fun fact - you also cry when the box of junk shows up at your house.
40+ clicks during the meh rub n tug a thon
only 2 “are you a robot” verifications, both on IRKs.
MEH AF SQUARED
#NYETVERYTHING
I fear I will never get one of these. I stopped watching long enough to run down and get the laundry
Working from home with a bored kid in the house and this is when he decides to start fighting with the dog. I missed the IRK!
I guess I will take solace in the fact I completely missed it versus getting so close only to have some captcha or cc thing fuck it up.
Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.

@Lister
Well least you were able to get an irk
No regrets whatsoever.
Based upon the shit being sold here today, it can only go down hill.
I finally scored one, sort of.
I didn’t have time to change the address from my daughter’s to mine and she lives on the opposite side of the country. She’s either going to think I don’t love her anymore because I sent her a bag of crap or it’s going to be a good irk and still didn’t get one.

I think Meh is having a laugh at my expense. This is the 4th Fuko/IRK I’ve received that is almost exclusively a food saver. My food saves itself thank you very much. I don’t need no more food savers!
Mine has been stuck in newgistics place for 10 days. No movement in sight.
Got mine today. It had the following:
Air fryer
car USB charger (dual USB ports!)
Apple lightning charger cord
a necklace with 2 pendants
a fidget spinner
Mines been sitting in GA for a week
Mine still says Processing. Is it going to ship?
