@IndifferentDude Considering how dreadful my last IRK was, I think I’m going to pass on these for a while, especially at this price. It wasn’t even worth posting about it in the thread. In fact, I can’t even remember the last time I got an IRK I didn’t regret. At least they are consistent.
@IndifferentDude yeah, I still have some expired granola sitting in my pantry from the last IRK. I might pass on this one unless I REALLY find an item on Meh today that costs around $25 and is a must have.
Ugh, I knew this would happen because I have to get up early to work in the office tomorrow instead of WFH. Maybe nobody will notice if I sleep at my desk.
@heartny I can’t say I understand… WHY do you have to stay up all night? These days everything is available to buy (unless of course it sells out) for the duration of the Meh-rathon! And it hasn’t been the norm for IRKs to be posted randomly, they’re usually only the expensive Side Deal IRKs with some amount of refund offering. That said, WHY do YOU have to stay up all night?
@heartny@Lynnerizer I, on the other hand, must be vigilant to only click ONE during a Mehrathon day. My current count is exactly 1500 less than my all-time total, and I want to maintain that separation.
@heartny@werehatrack
Oh that’s funny/different/strange, isn’t it something how we all have our own unique “thing” with the clicky faces.🫠
You know what’s even MORE bizarre though… As I was coming here after reading my email notification (I hadn’t noticed who it was written by) I said to myself I bet this is werehatrack! Lol
@werehatrack Huh - interesting! Although I guess the absolute total doesn’t accurately measure time; I once slipped up and had my current total one more than the absolute (well, you know what I mean) so it took 2 Mehrathons to get to the next match; going from 300-something to 400-something. I guess these 2-day thons might be better for that. Depends how many items they put up.
@connorbush me too, I completely missed the last mehrathon so I just went ahead. 25.00 AND I still have two 10.00 coupons from the number guessing game a while back.
@connorbush@Dakini
I missed that last Meh-rathon too! It’s the first time that’s happened since I found Meh in 2019! I felt the regret for days and I was oblivious to the Meh-rathon, never mind any IRK! Lol
@mediocrebot@pmarin MicroCenter has had some very small Win11 laptops for $50 off and on lately, but their capabilities are limited. I think they were in-store only sales.
@Kidsandliz I’ve been around a while, never do I recall being able to buy an item from 7 days ago. Sure those items might get reposted during the meh-rathon but I’ve never seem the week old post become avaliable.
@jml326 Sometimes they keep old deals open to buy even though the “day” they are on the site is past. But on a mehrathon, like today (and tomorrow), very recent stuff can show up.
@jml326@Kidsandliz I have an answer of sorts. Some of the places that maintain referral links into Meh don’t always update in a timely manner, so the items’ remaining live is a nod to folks who may be late to the party. Yes, this has caused confusion in the past, as people scrolled down the ICYMI list into prior days’ items and thought they were part of the 'thon because of the 'thon skin showing up on them. It’s only critical for IRK-rebate purchases, of course, but that’s something that is still on the to-do list for the dev team.
@jml326@Kidsandliz@werehatrack
Yeah I was thinking about getting the charging cables from yesterday and I was happy to see they’re still available. BUT… I did remember that the money wouldn’t go towards the refund on the IRK. I’m hoping they don’t shut the old offerings down before this professional procrastiner makes up her mind!
I wonder how many ($25) IRKs have sold so far.
I complained about their price at the start of the last Meh-rathon, as my 2 prior IRKs were regretful.
I held out, and got a $10 IRK, and it was pleasant.
Since the 2 prior weren’t worth the $10 risk, I am not spinging $25 for this offering, even if I buy enough for the discount.
Nothing caught my fancy. But i did get the DUDE washer. Gonna put it in my half bath so when my mom comes over we can hose her booty down. She’s at the diaper stage and can get a bit messy when I have her over.
So, I bought an IRK. I so far have purchased one thing for 14.99 on the mehrathon, I used a 10.00 coupon on that item (not the IRK)…now thinking I should have saved it, but what the hell.
Question is…Will 4.99 be applied toward the 25 I have to spend to get the refund or will 14.99 be applied?
@sammydog01@troy My question was about using the 10.00 coupon I had, and if that would count. Doesn’t matter because I ended up buying enough to make up for the coupon.
/giphy oh shit
@shahnm indeed
$50 IRK?? ($25 if you play their game) … NO WAY Jose!!
@IndifferentDude Considering how dreadful my last IRK was, I think I’m going to pass on these for a while, especially at this price. It wasn’t even worth posting about it in the thread. In fact, I can’t even remember the last time I got an IRK I didn’t regret. At least they are consistent.
@IndifferentDude why don’t they just ask us to bend over $ 25 for an IRK forget it-half that amount would be reasonable.
@IndifferentDude yeah, I still have some expired granola sitting in my pantry from the last IRK. I might pass on this one unless I REALLY find an item on Meh today that costs around $25 and is a must have.
Ugh, I knew this would happen because I have to get up early to work in the office tomorrow instead of WFH. Maybe nobody will notice if I sleep at my desk.

@Lynnerizer Because it takes all night to reach the end of the internet.
@Lynnerizer And I forgot that I need to be awake to click the Meh button
@heartny
OH JEEZ… CLICKY FACE! How could I have forgotten about the clicky face…
DOPEY ME!
@Lynnerizer Need I remind you
@heartny @Lynnerizer I, on the other hand, must be vigilant to only click ONE during a Mehrathon day. My current count is exactly 1500 less than my all-time total, and I want to maintain that separation.
@heartny @werehatrack

You know what’s even MORE bizarre though… As I was coming here after reading my email notification (I hadn’t noticed who it was written by) I said to myself I bet this is werehatrack! Lol
@heartny @Lynnerizer @werehatrack I’ve been doing that exactly twice as long (3000 clicks over the current count.)
@heartny
@Kyeh & @werehatrack! PRETTY IMPRESSIVE! No matter the thought process I just can’t seem to get passed 151!
@Kyeh looks like your idea has inspired others! You are much more dedicated than I.
@tinamarie1974 Or just sillier.
@Kyeh
@Kyeh Three days ago, it was exactly twice as long. Wow?
@werehatrack Huh - interesting! Although I guess the absolute total doesn’t accurately measure time; I once slipped up and had my current total one more than the absolute (well, you know what I mean) so it took 2 Mehrathons to get to the next match; going from 300-something to 400-something. I guess these 2-day thons might be better for that. Depends how many items they put up.
And it is a 2-Day Meh-rathon…
@Euniceandrich I wondered about that. Thanks for the info.
@Euniceandrich Where does it say that?
@Euniceandrich @Kyeh
I believe I read it under the IRK deal offering on Side Deal, in the write-up/rules and what to expect.
@Euniceandrich @Lynnerizer Oh! You’re right, thanks! I looked at it but didn’t read carefully.
@Euniceandrich @Kyeh 50. “You regret thinking about whether you’d find $25 of stuff in the 2-Day Meh-rathon on Meh to earn your $25 refund.“
@Euniceandrich @garb Yeah, thanks.
@Euniceandrich @garb @Kyeh Gosh, now we can get the Regret FOR FREE by not buying the IRK!
I caved on the fuku irk
/giphy jaunty-mischievous-quill
@connorbush now to find $25 worth of crap to buy
@connorbush me too, I completely missed the last mehrathon so I just went ahead. 25.00 AND I still have two 10.00 coupons from the number guessing game a while back.
@connorbush @Dakini
I missed that last Meh-rathon too! It’s the first time that’s happened since I found Meh in 2019! I felt the regret for days and I was oblivious to the Meh-rathon, never mind any IRK! Lol
/showme $25 item that I should really buy
/giphy make it so
@mediocrebot need a new laptop. Would buy that for $25.
@mediocrebot @pmarin MicroCenter has had some very small Win11 laptops for $50 off and on lately, but their capabilities are limited. I think they were in-store only sales.
@mediocrebot we’ll get purchasing right on this
@mediocrebot If I could get THAT laptop for around $25, that would be a no brainer!
Does anyone think they’ll offer random IRKs throughout this 2 day Meh-rathon?
I suppose one could always hope…
Or try manifesting it!
@Lynnerizer hopefully
@Lynnerizer @pattyrusk1
Did meh intend to unlock all previous items for purchase? I’m seeing things from a week ago avaliable to buy during the meh-rathon.
@jml326 Most of what they offer will be things that have been for sale in the past. Merathons are meh’s version of a fire sale so to speak.
@Kidsandliz I’ve been around a while, never do I recall being able to buy an item from 7 days ago. Sure those items might get reposted during the meh-rathon but I’ve never seem the week old post become avaliable.
@jml326 Sometimes they keep old deals open to buy even though the “day” they are on the site is past. But on a mehrathon, like today (and tomorrow), very recent stuff can show up.
@jml326 @Kidsandliz I’m not sure why the prior days’ deals are still active; that’s usually not the case during a 'thon.
@werehatrack right!
/giphy thank you
@jml326 @Kidsandliz I have an answer of sorts. Some of the places that maintain referral links into Meh don’t always update in a timely manner, so the items’ remaining live is a nod to folks who may be late to the party. Yes, this has caused confusion in the past, as people scrolled down the ICYMI list into prior days’ items and thought they were part of the 'thon because of the 'thon skin showing up on them. It’s only critical for IRK-rebate purchases, of course, but that’s something that is still on the to-do list for the dev team.
I’m sure we’ll be fielding questions.
@jml326 @Kidsandliz @werehatrack
Yeah I was thinking about getting the charging cables from yesterday and I was happy to see they’re still available. BUT… I did remember that the money wouldn’t go towards the refund on the IRK. I’m hoping they don’t shut the old offerings down before this professional procrastiner makes up her mind!
@jml326 you edited so as not to tag me, but it was too late.
/giphy fireelmo
I checked out quite a few of those older deals listed. They were all sold out.
@romellex Many aren’t sold out, including the smoking gnomes and the annoyingly illuminated magnetic-tip USB charging cables.
What waning warmth?
Any way to buy multiple items and have just one shipping charge?
@dgray67 Yes, by signing up as a member. You can cancel the membership later; see the FAQ. https://meh.com/faq
I wonder how many ($25) IRKs have sold so far.
I complained about their price at the start of the last Meh-rathon, as my 2 prior IRKs were regretful.
I held out, and got a $10 IRK, and it was pleasant.
Since the 2 prior weren’t worth the $10 risk, I am not spinging $25 for this offering, even if I buy enough for the discount.
@lonocat I also bet my brother that the IRKs would be $25 the next time.
So what does everyone think the 2nd day of the Meh-rathon will be…?
I’m gonna say it’ll be MEH MERCH!
Nothing caught my fancy. But i did get the DUDE washer. Gonna put it in my half bath so when my mom comes over we can hose her booty down. She’s at the diaper stage and can get a bit messy when I have her over.
So, I bought an IRK. I so far have purchased one thing for 14.99 on the mehrathon, I used a 10.00 coupon on that item (not the IRK)…now thinking I should have saved it, but what the hell.
Question is…Will 4.99 be applied toward the 25 I have to spend to get the refund or will 14.99 be applied?
@Dakini probably assume the worst. This is meh.
@emribecky right
@Dakini Unless your purchases total $25.00 (pre-tax, pre-shipping), no refund will be applied
@Dakini @troy There was a really specific explanation on the irk page.
@sammydog01 @troy My question was about using the 10.00 coupon I had, and if that would count. Doesn’t matter because I ended up buying enough to make up for the coupon.
Woohoo! Code VMP got me $5 off of the IRK.
Yes, I do have sucker written on my forehead.
/giphy unique-zany-scotch
/showme unique-zany-scotch
I’d drink that!! It looks psychedelic…
Meh-rathon is a slow, unstimulating, and uninteresting activity or procedure.
