Meh staff should be ashamed of themselves
29http://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=77136655&postcount=40
Completely lacking in customer service!
Ridiculing customers over stupid questions!
Engaging with customers through the forum rather than droning about in a cubicle!
Pushing a liberal progressive political and social reform agenda!
ARE ALL THESE THINGS MORE LIKELY THAN YOU THINK!?
MEH I DONT EVEN KNOW WHO YOU ARE ANYMORE!
so keep up the good work (Y)

Aw, I miss eyewerks and his political correctness.
@sammydog01 I don't.
@JonT - One of a few (unnamed) people who shall not be missed.
@sammydog01 he lurks on dealnews as well lol http://dealnews.com/Oster-Ice-Cream-and-Frozen-Yogurt-Maker-for-16-5-s-h/1399923.html#comments
@chrisi613 What a whiner…
@chrisi613 is deal news better than slick deals?
@DrunkCat In my opinion yes. I like the app dealnews has. It's my go to when I'm bargain shopping.
@KDemo @jont
@unixrab Haven't heard from you in awhile.

@cengland0
Well... honestly, at 5:00 AM Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) the meh app on my phone lets me see what &!*^%^~ is for sale ... and it pops up , I see how meh it is and go back to whatever it is I was doing at the time...
...coupled with the mods on the product info page - it really did become the quintessence of meh ... that being said, the customers of meh.com that still have the fortitude to post in the forums are fun to interact with, but the mehness of the moderators and the c.r.a.p. that has been up for sale lately has been off-putting.
@unixrab What are your suggestions for things meh should sell? There was a suggestion thread at one time. Did you make any suggestions there?
@cengland0 I dunno that I saw that thread... ...but I could do without SPEAKER DOCKS!
@unixrab You are not being very helpful because you claim they only sell crap but never make suggestions on what you would rather have.
Yes they do sell speaker docks but not every day. Today's product is not a speaker dock. And looking back, it has been over a month since they sold one. The last time was on June 5, 2015 and prior to that was May 1, 2015.
@cengland0
@unixrab Did you get a fuku this time as well? :)
@YahSah15 " that's a negative, Houston; over."
Oh, there are WAY better reasons for them to be ashamed than that.
@Starblind Truth.
@Starblind
@Starblind Lanterns anyone? The kind that receives light instead of emitting it. That will provide material for fun for years to come. And that's how things should stay: Fun, pure unadulterated fun.
This is awesomeness!!!
Is anyone else enjoying the random NASCAR picture as the thread banner showing "Dollar General". Makes me want to call this site Commander Meh.
I guess when no longer allowed to spew his vile diatribes here, he had to go pout about it elsewhere.

Is 10 reputation a lot?
@Kevin I'm guessing no since it also describes him as a 'new user.' But I don't know.
@Kevin He's only posted on there four times. I get the distinct feeling he's not a power user of that site.
@Kevin It's what you start with I think
Haters gonna hate, babies gonna cry…
@brhfl shake it off... shake it off!
(In case you haven't seen it, this is a special version of Taylor Swift's music video where forty nine different animation students at the University of Newcastle Australia were given fifty two still frames of Taylor Swift's Shake it Off music video to hand draw in their own style and this is the amazing result)
@curtise I like the goats in it.
@curtise That's really fantastic.
@curtise Pretty slick… I haven't seen the real video, and I sort of feel like now… I shouldn't.
@curtise Wow. That is probably the best music video I've seen since MTV quit playing music videos.
@brhfl Right!?
@curtise ear worm alert ( great video thought. Thanks for the share)
Two of his four posts there are complaining about Meh. Maybe he didn't make as big an impression on me as some of the other annoyances here, but I don't remember what his issue was.
I've had exactly one issue with a meh purchase, for which I received the missing part, along with a hand written apology note, complete with a kick ass sketch of a Dalek. I'd say that qualifies as rockin' customer service.
@dalekjoe Well damn, then they should be ashamed of themselves! Taking care of customers when they're just supposed to be meh...
@pitamuffin MINE just had a PAST DUE stamp, no pictures of Daleks, thanks @hollboll now I'm outraged.
@thismyusername
So, you like Daleks? Then you'll love this relaxation tape:
I laughed so hard I had to wipe away the tears. Haven't laughed like that in months.
@dalekjoe Those Daleks are just another of meh's methods of pushing a liberal progressive political and social reform agenda.
@thismyusername Oh yeah! I forgot about the past due stamp. That was an awesomely hilarious touch.
@miko1 - I did too, first time I encountered it.
are any of this guys posts still around? i would love to read some of it seems like I could get a chuckle or two
@sp3ar https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ameh.com%20eyewerks&rct=j
"Missing Order History" is kind of funny, but in the sad way.
@mikey was he seriously threatening to repeatedly break his free lights because he didn't get 4 free months of VMP for being a pain in the ass?
@Pantheist sounded like it or something similar
@mikey That read was just sad. I feel like he was perhaps attempting to be funny and failed - miserably. Geez. I hate that guy.
@bakeyoural this
I've run into two product issues with meh, once for the missing but not terribly important to me bits of the cheap go-pro-type camera, once because only 1 out of 3 incredibly cheap rc helicopters worked.
Both were resolved almost immediately, faster even than issues I've had with amazon (I know we're not fans of the way they ruined woot, but their customer service on their own site is pretty great). I honestly expected customer service to be much worse than it is, but I was very pleasantly surprised.
As far as making fun of Trump.... I mean come on... huffington post won't even cover stories about him anymore because he's such a lunatic.
@Pantheist They put up with my ineptitude over returning an ice cream maker. I'd say that's an award right there.
I still don't fully get it. Was there some sort of flame war that brought this on, or at least a fuck-all-y'all post somewhere that explains why he's so angry? I did read the "Missing Order History" thread mentioned above, but he just comes off as confused and a little whiny rather than ready to 'splode.
@Starblind Trolls gotta Troll
@Starblind He started off whiny and confused, and got some help. Then he evolved into a total jerk. The posts where he said some horribly mean things to hollboll were deleted - for good reason. If you dig deeper you'll find his rants got longer and more acerbic over time. He'd unload on the staff for non-issues, then say "haha, I was joking!" when the issue was solved. If I find any remnants, I'll link you, but I'm not sure I want to spend the time looking for that much shitty on an otherwise nice day.
@Starblind I can't remember what he said here, but I remember it was ridiculous enough to warrant the mod edit.
@Thumperchick That sounded like fun. Honestly I didn't think this thread would fly the way it did. I just thought the random meh hate was funny mainly because of the social liberal pun. Probably wouldn'tve posted this if I knew he was a confirmed troll
@Starblind From what I remember he just was an annoying pain in the ass. I cringed when I saw his signature.
I am just hoping this thread doesn't become a Summoning Spell.

Seriously. What kind of scumbags are you guys?
This guy goes through the trouble of critiquing your code, then takes time out of his day to call you liars when you tell him he's wrong.. and you have the nerve to send him free LEDs - when he said he wanted (very clearly I might add) free VMP.
You only have yourselves to blame.
(ETA: https://meh.com/forum/topics/missing-order-history )
Oh also, I found out the other day "scumbag" used to be slang for condom.. Feel free and try and work that word into a conversation today.

bahahaha I am holding back @ing his name to summon the troll back
wat.
@Skylord123 Well you know, all those roombas free everyone up to go out and wage war on the conservatives. So there's that.
@Skylord123 faux news and am talk radio really does a number on peoples reasoning process.
@jaremelz That's why I got the free Roomba? Bunch of socialist bastards! Or were they communists? Or, oh jeebus no, nihilists???
@bakeyoural "These men are nihilists, there's nothing to be afraid of"
"Vee vant zee money. Uzzervice vee kill zee girl."
Now you know the meh plan. Phase one, complete.
@jaremelz I mean, say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.
That dude said some crap about me too one time, i think he was somehow complaining about me enjoying my awesome fukobukuro surprise. I thought he was a dick but never knew everyone else felt similarly, or that he was an all around nutjob. I sure don't miss him.
"They are hellbent on advancing a liberal progressive political and social reform agenda" holy crap that's awesome.hahaha
his guy looked like a less fun unixrab. whatever happened to him? i kind of miss his curmudgeon posts
WELL IF YOU WANT @UNIXRAB I CAN EASILY MAKE HIM COME BACK AT LEAST FOR JUST A GLANCE
@sp3ar Summoning spell activated.
@sp3ar you're a troublemaker ;)
@mfladd @unixrab is awesome...never have to question where you stand with him... (no sarcasm)..and is very witty.
@sp3ar ?????????????????????

@unixrab really grew on me after a while, too. He's not so bad. :-)
@mikibell I will take your word for it as he was before my time. I only saw the one post making a comparison to you know who (he whose name we do not speak)
@mfladd voldermort doesn't post here ;)
@Thumperchick Not anymore (sign of the cross)
@sp3ar
it's once forward and twice backward @unixrab barxinu@ barxinu@ ... but..
@thumperchick @purplepawprints ;-) @mikibell
@unixrab since @mikibell had such nice things to say about you I am picturing it more like this.

@mfladd ... could be... you're doing your part though!
@unixrab Trump? Ok, activating Banishing Spell ;)

@mfladd
@jont
@unixrab

@mfladd
Vote Trump - I'm Hanibal Lector and I approved this message.
@unixrab concerning his candidacy

p.s. I like you. You should come around more often - I think.
@mfladd oh no, @unixrab is not docile.. Awesome wit, well articulated arguments, quirky political views ;)
@mfladd I changed my mind: @mikibell for Prez!
@jont meme generator
@unixrab agreed!
@unixrab see..very quirky, indeed... ;)
@sp3ar well i didn't @unixrab because i didn't know why he left. i wasn't afraid of summoning him, more afraid to annoy him if he was done with meh for ever type of this. hi @unixrab :)
@vampje hi there!
@mfladd hey hey hey!!! look whose prophecy has been fulfilled!!!
@mikibell
@unixrab was on woot this past week I seen him! he scored some crap unlike my unlucky butt
@sp3ar How could you not get a boc this past week. It was everywhere and last forever. You have probably save yourself some disappointment though. Hell, I got three to triple my sadness.
@sp3ar The only way you couldn't score crap last week is if all your fingers were broken.
@sammydog01 Or if you just didn't care enough to visit there and try to get one. Meh.
@sp3ar Just so you can see how much it was posted here.
https://meh.com/forum/topics/competitor-crap-for-sale
@mfladd i was cooking dinner at that very moment
@sp3ar You cook dinner for hours each day, several times a day? Because that is how much time and how often Crap was available on Woot during their birthday week. It was cah-ray-zee!
But to be quite blunt, they must have sold so many Craps that the chance of you getting anything of any value in those craps tends asymptotically towards zero.
@curtise @sp3ar @sammydog01 @mfladd
indeed I partook of the crap only AFTER getting a tweet saying...
mostly for nostalgia, but probably a unconscious reaction deeply ingrained in my psyche from the early days of sleeping next to the laptop with the woot watcher making siren sounds when the current item sold out (secretly blessing @snapster for the occasional 3am wootoff killers)
Go Trump ;-) None of you are surprised.
@unixrab: hi, you! :¬)

Also, yes, I have been guilty of going to bed in years past with the now defunct wooters.us chiming gently at me as things sold out and were replaced by other things...
Ah, nostalgia
@curtise those were the days..... ....when good stuff was sold cheap... now it's just meh stuff. oh well.
called it
"Donald Trump is a racist piece of shit" isn't so much a liberal progressive political and social reform agenda as it is a statement of fact and also HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
well tbh i don't really use twitter and thats where there was many drops, meh was the first reason I ever started using twitter because of the better bandwidth on their servers, i realized after the livestream that they were but it was already an hour after the last tweet

Me and @unksol should get a cookie: http://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=77201515&postcount=72
@DrunkCat He's still there trolling? Good grief. I hope he finds a new retailer to have a personal vendetta against soon.
@DrunkCat

honestly i swear he is just an older man like my father who just gets an idea in their head and just can't let it go, like a guard dog or some kind of hyena that thinks it's taller then you

he isn't going to let you go until you make it think you are taller
100th
I'm personally now ashamed this is probably my highest starred thread.
@DrunkCat Remember to blame @Starblind!
Why does this thread come back to haunt me.
