Ikea sells these. A certain someone who shall remain nameless was supposed to take a photo of their irk plushy with one or more of the octopus legs wrapped around it to post in that thread and hasn’t gotten around to it so far.
What they should have done is run it yesterday (pork burger ground hog) day, and loop through the same products.
Have 3-4 lined up that repeat, then insert a fresh one after each batch of repeats.
I managed to score an IRK during the last meh-rathon. And let me just say, I am no longer tempted by any other IRKs. There was regret and it was near instantaneous upon the packages arrival. Truth in advertising indeed.
@lisagd@PHRoG@romellex That is what I figured when I googled and realized they had run more than one together when half of it came up so then googled the second half.
@Dakini No, I went back and forth on it - I thought it was 2 days, but then got worried and checked and couldn’t find anything that specifically said 2 days (it did say something about spending your weekend here though.)
Edit: Yeah, on the sales page it says
Buckle up for a weekend full of hand-picked deals on products with unironically romantic backstories
@Dakini@Kyeh meh is presuming we actually READ what they put on the pages rather than just looking for irk pictures and then the buy button (although in the past I sometimes reflexively hit meh first and then lost out due to the delay on hitting buy). :Laughing:

@Kidsandliz Roundtuits are on backorder again.
@werehatrack I am sure your cats stole some and have them hidden away somewhere or are napping on some.
@Kidsandliz Probably under the fridge.
@werehatrack That sounds about right.
So what is the occasion for a mehrathon today?

It would have been hilarious.
Since there doesn’t seem to be anything new in the 'thon lineup, just think of today as February 2nd, 2024, v2.0
There have been strange products on meh before.
There have been useless products on meh before.
But here’s a product which is more pointless than anything else. Congratulations!
Wait! You can’t have a mehrathon this weekend. I won’t be around to “enjoy” it.
@OnionSoup We’ll save you some TrackRs.
@werehatrack oh good. But no more than 2000 of them. The rest you can have.
@OnionSoup @werehatrack You hear that @extramedium ? OnionSoup wants 2000 trackers.
@ExtraMedium @Kidsandliz @werehatrack only if Werehatrack takes ALL the rest
@ExtraMedium @Kidsandliz @OnionSoup I’ll take as many as will fit in the trunk of a four-door Boxster, as long as the Boxster is thrown in with them.

Am I the only one who doesn’t know what LYLASBFFAEAEAE means?
Nope. I wonder also.
@lisagd LYLAS Best Friend Forever And Ever And Ever And Ever? I have no idea
@lisagd @romellex been trying to figure it out myself. Pretty sure the last part is “best friends forever and ever and ever and ever”
@lisagd @PHRoG @romellex maybe Love Your Lazy Ass Sometimes Best Friend Forever And Ever And…
@lisagd @romellex @ladyhawke0
I think its: Love You(Ya) Lots And Stay Best Friends Forever And Ever And Ever And Ever
@lisagd @romellex @ladyhawke0
Kiddo chimed in…LYLAS is Love You(Ya) Like A Sister.
So it has to be: Love You(Ya) Like A Sister Best Friends Forever And Ever And Ever And Ever
@lisagd @PHRoG @romellex I was baffled, too. Thanks for the decoding.
@lisagd @PHRoG @romellex chatGPT agrees
@lisagd Came here to ask this!
@lisagd at first i thought it might be a secret discount code. Imagine my surprise…
@lisagd @PHRoG @romellex That is what I figured when I googled and realized they had run more than one together when half of it came up so then googled the second half.
@Kidsandliz @lisagd @PHRoG @romellex
@Kidsandliz @lisagd @milstarr @romellex
yeah, I saw that 2nd day Mehrathon email too. I still want a cookie for figuring it out before then.
It says ‘boobs’ in the backgrounds. Heh.
@PooltoyWolf And did you see this?

@Kyeh Heh, we’re on the same track!
@PooltoyWolf
DirtyGreat minds think alike!@Kyeh Well, I’m a furry, so my mind is definitely not squeaky clean lol!
@PooltoyWolf
Did you notice the mirror charger things have “pooping” in the background? That’s too scatalogical for me!
@Kyeh So they do…oh dear.
Day Two? Am I the only one who thought this was a one day meh-rathon?
And does that mean I have another day’s chance to find things to lower the price of the IRK I bought earlier?
@Dakini Yes!
@Kyeh Yes to me being the only one? haha
@Dakini No, I went back and forth on it - I thought it was 2 days, but then got worried and checked and couldn’t find anything that specifically said 2 days (it did say something about spending your weekend here though.)
Edit: Yeah, on the sales page it says
@Kyeh Ohhhh I missed that
