Hello everybody and welcome to Mehoholics Anonymous, a support group for Meh addicts everywhere. Donuts and coffee are on your right, bourbon and tequila to your left.
My name is @jbartus and I am a Mehoholic. It has been two hours fourteen minutes since my last purchase and if I weren’t at my limit I’d probably buy more of them. I’ve never even had a Moscow Mule but now I’ve got glassware for them if I ever want one. I wonder if you can drink coffee from a copper mug? Of course, if I do that then I’ll have nothing to drink from my Bubba Vacuum Bottles from last Tuesday…
My name is @RiotDemon and I’m a mehoholic. I’ve only been here 24 days and I’ve already placed 5 orders. Granted, they were all less than $25, and most less than $10 orders. At this rate… I’ll have too much stuff in my house. I’m anxiously awaiting my Bubba Vacuum Bottles, my latest purchase. I’m using my Foodsaver Vacuum Sealer almost every day, my first purchase.
I did not buy the Shark vacuum though. Gotta draw the line on certain products with the word vacuum in the name.
I’m hoping a Bluetooth speaker comes up soon that I can use in my shower. Just not the Banana Boat Pool Speaker which is how I found out about this website in the first place. Thanks random person sharing on a friend’s Facebook timeline!
@therealjrn I REALLY needed that stick blender, so I bought one. But I only bought one. And I wholeheartedly agree with you on the tumblers. In fact, I think one for every day of the year just might best. Wouldn’t want to run out.
@Barney it’s okay, we understand, the first step is always the hardest. Let’s say it together.
We are powerless over our deal-buying compulsion and our lives have become unmanageable due to the myriad clutter now clogging every available space in our homes.
@jbartus But… But… I still have some space next to the wilted plant in the far corner behind the curtains. I’m sure I can buy something that will fit there.
My name is @FroodyFrog (not to be confused with @fruityfraug, who told me to tell y’all that she doesn’t get why people are mixing up the two of us (myself and her), even though we are nothing alike).
It has been 4 months and 14 days since my last purchase.
I am Responsible.
When Anyone, Anywhere
Reaches Out For Help,
I Want The Hand Of Meh.A
Always To Be There.
And For That,
I Am Responsible !
I nearly bought some more of those PowerMats a few minutes ago, but I already have 5 or 6 in the garage nobody wants, not even @jbartus
They don’t charge my Samsung Galaxy6 with it’s case on, so that kinda sucks…
Yea, whatever, I spend way too much time on this site, but it’s kinda fun, but I would like @shawn to notify me when someone likes the witty things I say, so I don’t have to go back and check.

Hi, my name is Mehrocco_Mole and I don’t have a problem except for March 2016 when for the very first time I didn’t use my VMP and felt I had let the entire Meh community down so I had to go on a buying spree but than again who can’t use a few more Bubba cups to go with all the plastic steamers and salad bowls for the brown bagging the wife does when she goes too work to pay for the VMP and stuff I buy on Meh to justify paying the $5 monthly so I can buy more stuff without paying the $5 shipping for each and everything I so desperately need so no, I don’t have a problem. (Giggles and takes a long drag on an imaginary cigarette)
Nope.
my name is @carl669. the mehcronomicon, book of the mediocre, requires me to be on meh. so you see, i can’t be an addict. the book is making me do it. what the fuck do you mean i can’t blame an inanimate object? FUCK YOU! in the Simpsons, S5E15, an inanimate carbon rod was showered with glory. so you’re telling me inanimate objects can be praised, but not take blame? fuck that!
uhh… hold on a second. something’s going on. hey… get away from me! leave me alone! ARRRGGGGHHHHHHH…
My name is @jbartus and I am a Mehoholic. It has been two days, seventeen hours, and twenty three minutes since my last purchase. I am struggling with the urge to buy more, friends. My Bubba 24 oz. Vacuum Bottles arrived yesterday with an accompanying sense of wonderment as I discovered the box on my porch and had no idea what might be inside and today my Pure Copper Moscow Mule Mugs shipped and gave me a huge burst of excitement at their impending arrival. I’ve still never had a Moscow Mule…
@jbartus i just got a package of lanterns the other day- forgot about that buy! it’s like christmas all over again
so, some lucky winner of the inaugural Meh. Steel Cage Match (well, at least winner from the contestants eligible for a prize ) could maybe, possibly, have a lantern the next time some scary monster is in the woods outside

@FroodyFrog you could become the defacto winner, if you send me your email and none of the other participants do, by Meh. time in 50 minutes, since i know you wanted to play
if I get more than one response by the mystical hour I’ll figure out a game to decide the winner
Soon I won’t need to watch my spending very much at all… this will be a very bad thing for my daughters, since they will eventually have to dispose of my crap.
I’ve not had a raise or cost-of-living increase since Oct’09. My union finally settled after 6+ years and, if ratified, I get a $8.5K raise now, another $1.7K in April plus over $21K of retro pay before year’s end. There are taxes of course but there will be significantly more money coming in every two weeks. Technically these are only cost-of-living increases and not raises, but money is money.
Then, PMI ends in January ($150/month) and in June I stop paying child support, 1/2 of daughter’s health insurance and 1/4 of her tuition. (Yay! for sending kids out into the world, well equipped to live on their own!) Together, these cut my biweekly spending by over $770. It will take a few years to pay off ~$45K of CC debt but by 2020 or so, I’m debt free, except for mortgage, which isn’t really debt. (FYI: My saving is primarily for retirement. I use CC, really 0% balance transfers, to pay tuition. The APR is under 3.5% (vs 7%+ for education loans) and CC debt doesn’t survive bankruptcy, while ed loans do.)
Finally, my boss is retiring next year and there is a reasonably good chance I’ll get his line, which means a raise then, and more importantly, automatic yearly increases for a few years after that, even if the next union contract takes another six years to settle (this one ends in Nov’17).
TL;DR: unlimited, no. But things are looking up after a long period with no pay increases. This time next year, I expect to have ~$500/week more spending money.
@baqui63 that’s great newses (i know there must be a plural for news), no better place to dispose of your disposal income than Meh., except Meh.be the liquor store (which may recursively go back to #1)
My name is @jbartus and I am a Mehoholic. It has been three minutes since my last purchase. I managed to resist buying a Taylor Body Analysis Scale but the Bubba 128oz Sport Jug on MorningSave spoke to me. My Pure Copper Moscow Mule Mugs are still on their way… I’ve still never had a Moscow Mule.
Good news guys, my mugs and bubba dispenser jug thing came and… I had a Moscow Mule yesterday and it was good! Now I have a use for all these copper mugs I bought!

Whaaaaat?!?! I don’t have a problem. I am so outta here.
@Barney You have nothing else to do Lamey McLamerson!
@Barney Me neither. I already had a stick blender so I didn’t buy the stick blender. That proves I don’t have a problem.
Besides, it’s healthy to have a different stainless steel tumbler for every day of the month–safety first!
@looseneck Meanie!
@therealjrn I REALLY needed that stick blender, so I bought one. But I only bought one. And I wholeheartedly agree with you on the tumblers. In fact, I think one for every day of the year just might best. Wouldn’t want to run out.

@Barney just say no!
@jbartus Uh uh.
@Barney Has it crossed your mind that perhaps you are the problem?
@magic_cave Aww, and I thought you loved me.
My new is @f00l and my name kinda sums up my existence. I am an addict. Just glad to be here and share.
Can I have my daily sobriety chip? At a huge discount? At midnight Eastern?
@f00l you can have it but you gotta pay full price.
Hi. My name is @narfcake I’m a mehoholic. It all started on day zero; meh sold an AA shirt.
My name is @mfladd. I am only here because of a court order - so fuck off!
Now, @mfladd, you know the judge mandated that you have to share with the group.
@jbartus If it wasn’t for the donuts, I wouldn’t even be here (plus the court order)
@mfladd don’t argue with me, tell the officer the court assigned to escort you here!
@jbartus @mfladd
I completely misread that last bit about the court appointed
escortofficer…@FroodyFrog Ok, That could be another reason I stayed.
I am here for a friend… His family is hurting from his addiction. Darn enablers.
my name is Cerridwyn and I’ve got a problem. I’ve only gotten one fuku/fuko so I declare I am not an addict.

@Cerridwyn that’s 100% more than me!

@Yoda_Daenerys me emailing you is probably not gonna happen… I’m so ADHD. You should probably email me then I can respond to you with my address. xD
meh@<insertmyusername>.com
@jbartus homey don’t play by those rules
i’ll send the stuff to @baqui63, runner up, if ur not interested, or i’ll just let it drop, no biggie, or send to @compunaut, or @narcake, or @carl699, or Meh.be @dmlivezey
@Yoda_Daenerys I always mean to send you my address and forget!
@Yoda_Daenerys
So you’ll spend money to send it to yourself?
@FroodyFrog name changes are so confusing.
@jbartus do it now! mymehusername@gmail.com - copy - paste - send
@FroodyFrog oh yea i forgot i said i wouldn’t do that - yuk yuk
@jbartus
Tell me about it…
@ilovehollboll
Is that a hint that you personally had a different name but then changed it?
@FroodyFrog you could become the defacto winner, if you send me your email and none of the other participants do, by Meh. time in 50 minutes, since i know you wanted to play
if I get more than one response by the mystical hour I’ll figure out a game to decide the winner
@FroodyFrog
Mehbe
@Yoda_Daenerys I do not need more free lanterns or other crap around here; I get enough of the non-free kind without needing help from anyone else.
(Also tagging @jbartus,@baqui63, @compunaut, @narcake, @carl699 and @dmlivezey.)
Soon I won’t need to watch my spending very much at all… this will be a very bad thing for my daughters, since they will eventually have to dispose of my crap.
@baqui63
You may also want to tag @narfcake
@baqui63 did you win the lotto or something? unlimited supply of money?
my kids have repeatedly requested that i stop sending them Meh. shipments
@TickledLizard Dammit! My fault for not proof reading what @Yoda_Daenerys wrote (I just copied that list of at-usernames from above).
Sorry, @narfcake (read above to learn why I tagged you).
@Yoda_Daenerys Unlimited, no.

@Yoda_Daenerys
If your kids don’t want you to send them Meh-rchandise, I’m sure some meh-mbers would love receiving them.
@TickledLizard apparently not, based on recent experience
@baqui63 that’s great newses (i know there must be a plural for news), no better place to dispose of your disposal income than Meh., except Meh.be the liquor store (which may recursively go back to #1)
@Yoda_Daenerys I sent you my address, what more do you want from me?!
@jbartus d’oh! forgot to set up forwarding on that account - got it
