Lie to Your Friends and Make Them Jealous {{CLOSED}}
11Here’s the deal, we want you to come up with the best fake rumor about what we’re doing and selling on the site today and Tweet it to your dozens of followers.
Don’t get us wrong, we don’t want you to spam and be that annoying person begging for subs/comments/likes/attention. We just want you to make your friends jealous that they didn’t pony up the measly $1 to get in like you did. Make ‘em think we have gold doubloons, a spaceship, jar of live and delicious cephalopods, mantis eggs, whatever you think is best.
This is a contest of sorts so submit only your very best Tweet, we have embedding functionality so just post the link. Whoever has the most votes will be the “winner” and get something that they probably don’t even want from that weird, dark, wet part of the warehouse.
EDIT: You have until Midnight Eastern
And the winner is: @MeatieOgre! Your skills of deception were good, almost too good...

I lied on Facebook with this post:
I am a proud inaugural member of the greatest web site ever! https://meh.com/ It's so exciting to be in on the ground floor on something this amazing.
first 100 who made a purchase got a printable coupon for free shipping! DID I WIN!!!
Day 0 opening @ http://meh.com. They have free nachos! You just can't beat that! I'm feeling a little less meh about being VMP.
— Renae Grizzle (@VioletRenae) July 8, 2014http://Meh.com/ launched today! Those who opted into the kickstarter I mentioned June 24th got more than we bargained for. Have you gotten your shipping confirmation yet?
Hi bogie!

Hi you two!
http://meh.com is up and running. First 1000 purchasers get a shelving unit at the warehouse named after them. #mehmeh
With early access to meh.com as a kickstarter backer, I just bought a signed Prince cassette tape for a buck!
Careful, mommyleah might think you're serious and go on a rampage.

Just copy and pasted the link to the tweet into the comment. Not as a link, just pasted directly.

— conanthelibrarian (@_libarian_) July 8, 2014your link looks funny from here. better now.
I'm glad mine wasn't the only one that posted odd. I had to go in and edit it myself so meh.com would show up right.

— Corey King (@CoreyAKing) July 8, 2014Crap. I got the puppy.
nice!
I'm surprised I wasn't already following you.
You could have been following my evil twin and thought it was me!
I won a pony @meh.com!
I kind of love/hate that people are starring their own posts. self-five?
Self-Five!
I'm fully aware that self-liking my own entry will make me go blind in a few hours.
I couldn't bring myself to do it. It just feels weird. Like a hand in a rubber glove. Just sayin.
I've been wondering if you can do that, but haven't brought myself to try. I was half-expecting the site to slap me in the head publicly.
If doing it is wrong, why does it feel so right?
#mehmeh live doubloons, a cephalopod, jar of live and delicious mantis eggs, and a spaceship. Day zero at http://t.co/w9KAlD1cQX.

— jay heddings (@jayheddings) July 9, 2014SEND ME THE FISH SANDWICH. Victory never tasted so good.
I grudgingly congratulate @MeatieOgre on his win. Nice job man, I think I was the first star on your post, I knew I was toast.
Thanks. Don't hold the grudge too long. I was only playing the vicious game.
But, what if we can be nemesis? Nemesi? Neme.... FRENEMIES?
I can be your nemesis for winning this contest, if you like. I thought yours was properly mysterious.
Congrats Meatie -- you deserved it for your charitable extortion on the other contest
Did @meatieogre nuke their account or something?
@meatieogre is now @jerseyfrank
True story.
Need moar contests.
