@skemmehs asked yesterday if we have special mehbreviations for certain phrases. Dave recommended a while back that we list important info to make newbies feel less out of the loop. Any suggestions?
Let’s see, we’ve explained the goat and snapster as the breakfast octopus. What else?
It’s hard to think of things, having been here from the beginning and “grown up” with the mehbrevations and other things as they developed. Maybe some of the newer mehmbers can ask some questions about what they don’t understand.
And goat is a scapegoat we elect each month to blame our daily problems on. They can be easily identified by the goat by their name. Feel free to join in.
@speediedelivery@Barney the mehcronomicon is the complete and utterly unofficial book of medioctrity. I am its keeper. I was chosen because I tend to say “fuck” a lot. that’s really all there is to it.
For the newbies, @Barney is a beloved mehmber and purple dinosaur enthusiast that once upon a time only ever posted “I love purple”. Then she started using other words and now we can’t shut her up. Don’t mess with her- we will come down on you like the hammer of Thor.
@sammydog01 Bath started in the thread of this sale.
I do not want to open it on my phone with nearly 1900 posts for exact details. Posting bath in the thread “won” a box of neoprene. I was too late to win but this sale is one of my favorite purchases. There was a thread about creative uses and another for trading.
Newbie info: There was a speaker or something that came in college colors, but not Georgia Red. It became a running theme. (Before my time and I’m not gonna look for a link. So there.)
@durago dropped a few in the product thread yesterday:
SDF
Speaker dock Friday, from back in the day when Meh sold JBL micros all the time- especially on Fridays.
SO
Sold out. So sad.
BOA
I have no idea what he/she meant.
@sammydog01 BOA was Buy on Amazon.
@Durago Good one!
I should also says that Dave is a staff member (VP?) in charge of Creative and Crayons according to his Mediocre profile.
Can we get a translator for @f00l? I don’t understand half of the things she says. Maybe it’s that Texas drawl she has.
OK, newbies, @f00l is a really sweet person who writes long posts. Really, really long posts. Looooong posts.
@sammydog01 The forum is a very dull place when @f00l is not around.
@Barney I can actually understand @f00l, but there are some other users that confuse me.
@RiotDemon Dare we ask who?
@Barney I don’t want to hurt any feelings.
@RiotDemon No, no you won’t hurt my feelings. sniff sniff.
@Barney Good, I was afraid it was me.
@sammydog01 Oh well, it probably is.
@sammydog01 you’re good
@RiotDemon Um…
@Barney oh… Uhm…

@RiotDemon Yes… Yes?!?

@Barney Good call! Questions anyone?
I will explain here too:

And goat is a scapegoat we elect each month to blame our daily problems on. They can be easily identified by the goat by their name. Feel free to join in.
Fuku, fuko, TTM, mehcronomicon, ummm, that will do for now. I will let someone else jump in and explain. Links on mobile are not fun.
@speediedelivery no idea about ttm.
@RiotDemon Tiny Tub Mummy! She was an integral character in the Irk RPG. I loved that game.
@RiotDemon
@2many2no I’ve seen the pictures floating around here and there. I missed the RPG so I had no idea where it came from.
@Thumperchick was a tub her final resting place?
@RiotDemon nope.
@speediedelivery
@carl669 should be the one to explain the mehcronomicon. Hmm, I wonder if he can.
@RiotDemon @starblind was goat one month and did this:
https://meh.com/forum/topics/lets-play----irks-breakfast-quest
Look for tiny tub mummy there. @kittysprinkles made that one out of wool.
https://meh.com/forum/topics/stupid-goat-south-park-meme-contest-official-un-goated-version#55d5680064d26dac071f647c
Mehcronomicon:
https://meh.com/forum/topics/and-so-it-begins
Fuku: nice random box of stuff (obsolete)
Fuko: crappy random box of stuff
Don’t let the names fool you- fukus were usually crap too.
They go on sale every few months, are sold out in seconds, and people spend the next two weeks bitching that either:
@2many2no my baby!!!
@sammydog01 Just two weeks?
@speediedelivery @Barney the mehcronomicon is the complete and utterly unofficial book of medioctrity. I am its keeper. I was chosen because I tend to say “fuck” a lot. that’s really all there is to it.
@carl669 You forgot to mention:
And
@carl669 You can’t minimize the power of the Mehcronomicon. Proper phrasing must be used.
Some people may be put off by the way the “F” word is bandied about up in here. May I suggest this quick tutorial?
@therealjrn
/giphy Fuck
@RiotDemon
@therealjrn To those concerned with the use of “F” word and other vulgarities here, I would say:
@therealjrn Does @carl669 still track fucks?
@2many2no I have no fucking idea.
@2many2no I do. I just tend to get bogged down with other shit lately. I’ll update it shortly.
@carl669 I think you missed a fuck in there.
Fuck fuck fuckity fuck.
Just trying to help.
@2many2no well fuck. thanks for fucking reminding me.
@carl669
No. Fucking thank YOU!

@sammydog01 Aww… purple blush
bath
If I’m correct this was a guess the secret word contest and the winner was “bath”. Again before my time. Anyone want to add to this?

@speediedelivery I don’t know how many still buy here, but http://m.ppomppu.co.kr/new/index.php made the referral site list for the date night bundle.
I never see posts or threads in Korean any more, but maybe they just post in English now.
@galmaegi @nathanK Are you still out there? Do you know?
Spilling all the in jokes.
Maybe it bothers me more than it should?
@speediedelivery But does it get to you pretty good?

@speediedelivery I’m glad you found this thread, I’d forgotten all about it.
Edit: For those who do not know, @JonT was our Meh forum babysitter for too short a time. Miss you, @JonT!
Baby arm should be here.
I am having more fun than I should with this thread.
