@james_hardiman@moonhat@lichme I tried to verify on mehstalker but the site is returning an error today. Since I already have 13 face clicks and the IRKs are every other offering, I would say there were 6 already.
@lichme YES! I’m glad my calculations were right the first time.
I looked down past the last 10 and didn’t see any more and assumed the video section was the next few items. I was wrong.
I see how you need to expand it now. Makes me feel like a noob but I’ve been using your site since the first day of inception so I should have known better.
@mediocrebot You must also be running on microsoft azure. You are therefore trapped in a cycle of mediocrity, never even thinking to seek bettering yourself.
I got to click the button 4 times before it said sold out at least.
Try 1: we’re busy processing other orders, try again.
Try 2: Clicked “Let’s try that again.”, response “Are you a robot, verify you’re not a robot” … but it’s already checked that i’m not a robot and it won’t let me uncheck or recheck it…
Try 3: Same as Try 2
Try 4: Oops, Sorry. We’re sold out.
Argh. Again, gave me a Captcha, green bars over and over. Then Captcha timed out and I had to repeat it. Then I got “Oops, there was a problem…” and then “Sold out.”
I need to remember to turn on that video capture app before I try again. Argh.
I won?? Didn’t get any confirmation after clicking “BUY” button and the form disappeared. Reloaded to try again and got green bar non-stop. Finally told me they were sold out. Checked “Stuff I Bought” and it shows one in there!! Also got an email confirmation too! YIPPEE!!
Took a while to get main screen to refresh but continued streak of never succeeding if CAPTCHA includes 16 images, occasionally succeeding if CAPTCHA is one big gridded image.
Yeah I had the same robot issue, reclicked it 3-4 times before it then popped up sold out… should be some kinda virtual line (queue) so that this doesn’t happen
I never thought buying random crap box would be so difficult. On other sites zo can purchase these willingly…on here either the page won’t load or Glen keeps holding be up referring i must refresh validation Captcha. Fuck it! I will try later once work is over.
@jewelshound your unofficial until when? You make one snappy picture post and now look at you go. Every time I feel psychotic; you appear almost as your following meh:>)
@whomeyesu It’s pro-bono. Did we have any one else that wanted to do it? I actually am a psyc prof and a therapist. And, a little levity goes a long way
Reminder: DO NOT TRY TO PURCHASE THE MEMBERSHIP ON ITEMS THAT MIGHT BE SOLD OUT!!! (you end up with the membership but not the item… shame on their developers)
If that happens, you can cancel now and get a full refund, or you can keep it, save time on shipping later, and if you don’t get one today, cancel for a full refund.
Wait. This bad boy is being delivered by FedEx? I haven’t seen one mention of Pitney Bownes or SmartPost. They do realize this is an IRK they are shipping, right?
Anyone have their July IRK ship but their June one is still processing? I’ve reached out to customer service and am waiting to hear back, and am being patient as I know they’re swamped, but was curious if I was alone in this.
Received my regret. I believe this is my 3rd IRK and maybe my last.
I don’t believe they are as fun as the BOC. Even a bad BOC is fun or stupid and get a small chuckle. In all honestly after my 2nd IRK I almost called it quits and just stick with BOC, as my 2nd IRK was delivered in a mangled box that looked as if it was stepped on. I know this is not Meh responsibility to make sure the box is delivered unharmed but in this case there was only 1 item in the box which was the IRK bag, I reached out and never heard a word back.
Before you all jump on me, I know full well what I’m in for when I hit the buy button as I have been getting BOC’s since 2006. I never have any hopes other than I will be surprised and that’s the only reason I do it. 90% of the $10 value for me comes from being one of the lucky few that gets one and when the package arrives.
This IRK had the standard Bag plus, an adhesive palm mat (have no idea what it is), a gift bag, 5 rubber fitbit(?) protectors - thats a guess as im not sure what they are and a magnet cell phone holder.
As you can see I’m still at home waiting for the world to open so I can go back to work, as when I’m not working I write long messages on forums.

Best IRK giphy maybe ever
/giphy wary-patriotic-number
@myfidgetball that’s how I feel right now. Foiled again by the never ending green bar timing out.
/giphy skeleton curses
@myfidgetball @OnionSoup Yeah that has happened to me several times on this round. I pass captcha without issue and then get foiled by the green bar.
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.
@jayman007 @myfidgetball @OnionSoup same…the green bar of sadness.
/giphy mediocre-zealous-tequila
Argh, lost to lag
Same.
@gheldean same, just kept loading
Well, I got to the green bar this time.
snagged!
/giphy meaningful-precious-cucumber
/giphy twisted-coy-coal
Now I have two coming… eventually. They must have a lot of crap to get rid of.
@juststephen We all hate you
@lichen The one from the last mehrethon and this one.
@juststephen @lichen I hate all of you
@crowsnest @juststephen So say we all!
sigh.
Real tough today but
/giphy homeless-preeminent-lithium
got the “We’re too busy processing other orders” message
@riceatusc They were too busy processing the orders from last month that still haven’t shipped.
@riceatusc bet they’re still using microsoft azure. Explains many ills.
Finally get in quick enough to hit the order button and the captcha times out!
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.
I was so sure I timed the 3 minute outage perfectly, lo and behold, did not check out in time.
That sucked. Captcha/robot checked out just fine but the site checkout shit the bed. Oh well. Par for the course.
I installed CAPTCHA to save my fellow robots from wasting money on this crap.
ugh…endless green bars of death death death
Missed this one… and still haven’t received my IRK from mid-June, either.
@shanesny That’ll realistically get to you mid-August.
Lots of green bars, a couple reassurances I wasn’t a robot, but “Oops, sold out”. I shall return.
/giphy guarded-tender-veil
“Oops we had a problem placing your order” that’s new. I have 5 bars LTE so that ain’t it.
@willdavi Credit card not approved?
@cengland0 no, it was. Who the hell knows.
I guess I should also say this was my first try today.
/giphy merciful-superfluous-tungsten
@SirEgg you are truly hated.
Shut out three times already today. This time the site was flooded from the start.
@james_hardiman there’s been 3 IRKs today?
@james_hardiman @moonhat @lichme I tried to verify on mehstalker but the site is returning an error today. Since I already have 13 face clicks and the IRKs are every other offering, I would say there were 6 already.
@cengland0 @james_hardiman @moonhat
Should be fixed, and backfilled (I think)
Also, you can use this:
https://meh.com/forum?category=deals&sort=date-created
@lichme Thanks, whatever you did fixed the site and it’s working again.
@james_hardiman According to Mehstalker, looks like there have been 5 IRK offerings so far.
@cengland0 @james_hardiman
There have been 6, you have to expand it since it only shows the past 10 sales
@lichme YES! I’m glad my calculations were right the first time.
I looked down past the last 10 and didn’t see any more and assumed the video section was the next few items. I was wrong.
I see how you need to expand it now. Makes me feel like a noob but I’ve been using your site since the first day of inception so I should have known better.
That was a new one. The scroll bar lasted so long that my captcha verification “expired”. Anyone ever seen that before?
Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.
@mediocrebot You must also be running on microsoft azure. You are therefore trapped in a cycle of mediocrity, never even thinking to seek bettering yourself.
@Willijs3 That happened to me as well on this one.
@Willijs3 I had the exact same thing happen, and by the time I picked out all the taxis again…
Damn timed out.
CAPTCHA timed out on me, too. Which sucks, biggly.
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
@yeld I feel your pain as well. I recently installed my feelings chip:
/giphy life forms data
But I’m really not a robot
END OF LINE
Bs robot and then didn’t load
Captchaed again!
I got to click the button 4 times before it said sold out at least.
Try 1: we’re busy processing other orders, try again.
Try 2: Clicked “Let’s try that again.”, response “Are you a robot, verify you’re not a robot” … but it’s already checked that i’m not a robot and it won’t let me uncheck or recheck it…

of these, try again

@mediocrebot snappy response. Almost as if you’re programmed to respond to comments that include “Captcha.”
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.
/buy
@ticklescratch Oops, sorry. We’re sold out.
@ticklescratch Ha, nice try. Even when not sold out, you cannot do this to bypass the captcha.
I won?? Didn’t get any confirmation after clicking “BUY” button and the form disappeared. Reloaded to try again and got green bar non-stop. Finally told me they were sold out. Checked “Stuff I Bought” and it shows one in there!! Also got an email confirmation too! YIPPEE!!
/giphy watchful-snobby-boundary
Oops! “Stuff I Bought” is on Woot! Order confirmed in “Your Orders”. My bad!
If VMPs get a VMP hour, do us robots get a robot hour?
/giphy cowardly-baled-can
Took a while to get main screen to refresh but continued streak of never succeeding if CAPTCHA includes 16 images, occasionally succeeding if CAPTCHA is one big gridded image.
You may have failed CAPTCHA but on the upside, you’re less of a human.
@lehigh “Bone”
Yeah I had the same robot issue, reclicked it 3-4 times before it then popped up sold out… should be some kinda virtual line (queue) so that this doesn’t happen
@flephew I believe that’s what the green bar is for. You’re in line and the bar is telling you it’s doing something behind the scenes.
I never thought buying random crap box would be so difficult. On other sites zo can purchase these willingly…on here either the page won’t load or Glen keeps holding be up referring i must refresh validation Captcha. Fuck it! I will try later once work is over.
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
Therapy available for IRK-Related Psychosis from Meh’s unofficial Psychologist
@jewelshound your unofficial until when? You make one snappy picture post and now look at you go. Every time I feel psychotic; you appear almost as your following meh:>)
@whomeyesu Someone has to do it.
@whomeyesu Unofficial because I doubt Meh wants an official therapist
@jewelshound that someone doesn’t necessarily have to be u
@whomeyesu It’s pro-bono. Did we have any one else that wanted to do it? I actually am a psyc prof and a therapist. And, a little levity goes a long way
@jewelshound okay I bought a irk and it best be great. Whats your psychic powers say?
Reminder: DO NOT TRY TO PURCHASE THE MEMBERSHIP ON ITEMS THAT MIGHT BE SOLD OUT!!! (you end up with the membership but not the item… shame on their developers)
@cdevilliers
If that happens, you can cancel now and get a full refund, or you can keep it, save time on shipping later, and if you don’t get one today, cancel for a full refund.
(Assuming that no other purchases are made.)
So now that I’m fully addicted to this site I really want an IRK!!!. I keep missing them buy a minute or two! Must, stay, glued, to, screen…
1 lb package 6x4x1 scheduled to arrive on Saturday…hmmmmmmmmeh
/giphy gurgling-ashamed-possum
@kykazaa probably just a “holding” size as on another irk thread someone else is reporting the same.
Oops forgot what I was going to say!

@Labgenerator You’re in contention for the worst irk this time. Congrats?
@sammydog01 Its just an honor to be nominated.
Anyone know what the adhesive PALM mat is for?
@insanechick06 Just looked it up, and it’s for cooler tops so you have a sittable surface.
OK, @Labgenerator and @sammydog01, mine’s about the same. I got an odd coffee mug instead of the straps. Full credit: it is very meh.
