@hems79 I wonder if that watermelon would explode as you cooked it? I could see it building up a fair bit of pressure with that turkey holding it together.
I got instant regret by clicking Buy, only to find the kit was sold out before I could prove I’m not a robot. So the rest of you spent $5 on regret I got for free. Suckers.
@ruouttaurmind Oh I misread - thought the plan was to swipe an IRK, not storm the citadel. Be sure to do it before the IRK’s ship so you can grab one or more when making your great escape.
@chienfou@Kidsandliz But if we’ve already breached the inner sanctum, we’ll have full access to the IRK vault. We’d be able to IRK-up to our every whim.
I avoid CAPTCHAs on meh-athon days by making sure I’m logged in and access my order history. So that the site has a session going with me. It seems to work, but it might just be black magic.
Nuts, I was too invested in finding the last derby sheep in Poochy’s Tape Trail to notice it changed over. At least I finally found the bugger behind a fence.
Is this where I’m supposed to post the contents of my IRK? I will anyway.
POGO clip-on power bank
1 pair mens Euro socks
1 black cord wrapped in plastic
2 plastic things that look like covers for something with the word Roichen on them
1 Power Precision sous-vide cooker - gonna have to give this a try. Has anyone here used them?
I don’t regret much of anything here.
That darn Google ReCapcha kept feeding me images (buses, cars, traffic lights, crosswalks,etc) and never let me get in! I think they are making people using Firefox just keep going forever…
I tried a new method today-instead of refreshing manually-let the screen refresh itself to the new item and then clicked buy-First two times got to the “buy already” button after clicking the “I am not a robot”-never got the captcha. Third time (VMP)-got it. Think if you get the captcha-you are dead by the time you go through it-already sold out.
BTW-they always have another IRK sometime between 11 and 12 and end this insanity with selling a crappy tee shirt.
Is this an April fools joke? The only time this site has asked me to verify I’m not a bot, then to get an error that it didn’t know what I wanted to buy, and go back to see the IRK is sold out.
@hems79 I usually use my iPad pro to get on Meh each night but that’s the only computer system in the entire house that doesn’t work with the countdown timer. It starts at zero and counts down to zero and keeps refreshing the page so you cannot press the buy button. Filling out the order form, it will just refresh the page. I don’t use an iPhone so that may have the same problem but I dunno.
@juststephen I bet you will, but there will almost certainly be more irks today, so why not keep trying for a few and cancel tonight if you don’t buy anything?
Oh no, I am thinking my package has been high-jacked! It has been on it’s way to USPS for 3 days.

I got mine in… Does anyone know what the box-thingy is? It looks like it might be a light box, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to set it up.
@kdemo I selected all but 2 at top right and the bottom 4 on the right. Do I get to pass through??

@hems79 That makes me pretty uncomfortable.
@hems79 Josh is prepping that turkey all nice. Will watermelon Stuffing? #RhettandLink #GoodMythicalMorning
@hems79 I wonder if that watermelon would explode as you cooked it? I could see it building up a fair bit of pressure with that turkey holding it together.
@hems79 @jandrese I believe the end result of that experiment is that the watermelon actually deflated like a football. It was weird.
I got instant regret by clicking Buy, only to find the kit was sold out before I could prove I’m not a robot. So the rest of you spent $5 on regret I got for free. Suckers.
I am a robot. I win.
@Barneybot the good news barneybot is that purple is safe.
Purple is the worst color.

I have NEVER been captchaed on this site before. WHY the eff did it have to happen this morning?
That’s it. I’m putting together a breaching team and we’re going to storm meh HQ and retake meh! Who’s with me?
@ruouttaurmind Just hack them - cheaper with no transportation costs.
@Kidsandliz Sure, but hacking doesn’t really provide a very good teaser pack for the evening news. The sound bite would be, what, clacking keyboards?
@ruouttaurmind Oh I misread - thought the plan was to swipe an IRK, not storm the citadel. Be sure to do it before the IRK’s ship so you can grab one or more when making your great escape.
@Kidsandliz @ruouttaurmind What’s the point of hacking a site that runs it’s own DDoS on a regular basis??
@chienfou Fair point!
@chienfou @ruouttaurmind To put in an after the fact order for an IRK…
@chienfou @Kidsandliz But if we’ve already breached the inner sanctum, we’ll have full access to the IRK vault. We’d be able to IRK-up to our every whim.
@Kidsandliz That reminds me… where has that little troll been during all this Mediocrebot mayhem?
@chienfou @Kidsandliz @ruouttaurmind
@mfladd I keep threatening to have these made at StickerMule. One day I’ll get around to it.
@ruouttaurmind Oh yeah. I didn’t think of that. Good point.
@ruouttaurmind I think I have a copyright laying around here somewhere. Just in case you get rich off them.
@mfladd Rich? Like charge money for them? I was just going to give them away to folks in the forum. But selling might work too? Hmm…
JK! If I ever get motivated to do it, I’m giving them away. Free like.
Ugh…Clicked Buy and got hung up on the robot link…
@braveit1 that didn’t get me … It was the reenter your card number that got me… I bought something earlier and it didn’t make me do that.
@OnionSoup I bought the 360 camera and it didn’t do the robot link.
@braveit1 yeah, captcha is standard for irks to stop robobuyers.
I’ve never been asked to re-enter card before though.
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
@braveit1 Just as a hint, when it’s the IRK, it will always make you click the “I’m not a robot checkbox.” It’s special for that product only.
@cengland0 Yes, but after I clicked the box, the buy button never appeared.
/giphy questionable-devious-wheat
@yourmom saving this giphy for later
Well now I can actually pay attention to work. Thanks, mediocrebot!
/giphy glorified-glad-doctor
hey @mediocrebot… I defeated your precious CAPTCHA. What do you have to say about that? Bleep Bloop Bleep, I rule, you drool.
I installed CAPTCHA to save my fellow robots from wasting money on this crap.
@mediocrebot Ha! Humans rule. Whose smart ass human brain did you steal now that you suddenly make sense?
How the hell is it already sold out?
@SweetBro I think people bought all that were available.
@SweetBro They sold 199 in a couple seconds. I’m sure more will be offered again before midnight eastern time. Stay on the site all day and good luck.
@SweetBro Thai always happens as captcha gets a lot of people like me— some people never gets captchas
Beep beep boop boop. (I assume if you failed CAPTCHA you now understand Robot.)
I avoid CAPTCHAs on meh-athon days by making sure I’m logged in and access my order history. So that the site has a session going with me. It seems to work, but it might just be black magic.
I might also be because I’m a VMP?
I installed CAPTCHA to save my fellow robots from wasting money on this crap.
@SnakeJG Likely black magic. I am logged in and got motorcycles and traffic signals on this one. By the time I was done it was sold out.
that was stupid fast.
How did these sell out in seconds?! Ya’ll need Jesus…
it went through so fast… and it was sold out. I shoulda’ just bought the damn drone

You may have failed CAPTCHA but on the upside, you’re less of a human.

Happy day…fools. Humans are weird.
@geekahedron They only do it on TIRKs. Didn’t know what you wanted to buy means it sold out.
/buy
@drummermessiah Sorry, the
/buy
command is only available to members. Learn more.I never got a chance - the button said “sold out” when the deal first appeared on my screen.
@parodymandotcom Same exact thing here, like 5 seconds after the roll-over.
@parodymandotcom @ShotgunX fix is in
Definitely wondered what I just did after I somehow bought it.

Didn’t get one - but it did charge the $5 membership fee to my account, regardless.
If I cancel my shipping perks account, will I get refunded that $5?
@juststephen The same thing happened to me last night. Got charged the membership fee but got no IRK.
Holding out hope that I can find something else worth buying today to make it worth it before asking for a refund.
@juststephen I bet you will, but there will almost certainly be more irks today, so why not keep trying for a few and cancel tonight if you don’t buy anything?

Why does it always have to be CAPTCHA? Why can’t it be HATCHA or BERETCHA?
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.
@BillLehecka Because the real name is “Gottcha” AKA you don’t get one Ha Ha Ha
/buy
@Euniceandrich Oops, sorry. We’re sold out.
how do you use the “/buy” when you are a member?
@pacoffeegirl I think /buy is only for VMP and not Members. It also won’t work on any item with a captcha.
You may have failed CAPTCHA but on the upside, you’re less of a human.
@mediocrebot meh… just means I’m one of the older ones

@aardWolf @Ignorant @sammydog01 I’m just trying to figure out where you mount the bidet attachment…
@aardWolf @Ignorant That is totally not what I imagined in my head. I will go look around the internets.
