Mid Jan Irk Reveal Thread
35I can’t believe I get to start the thread. That NEVER happens.
My box arrived it was solidly packed and a little on the heafty side. I was quite shocked when I opened the box the contents were wrapped in BUBBLE WRAP?!?!??!?
I am very pleased with my box. A few Bluetooth speakers, a wireless charger and a one of a kind creation!!!

Wow! Nice haul!
Just looked it up, you got $100 worth of speakers and a priceless doll. Nice!
@RiotDemon Still say that the “early bird doesn’t get the worm”. Looks like if she didn’t get the whole worm, she at least got part of it.
That doll is amazing! The speakers are pretty nice too.
CONGRATS!
Very nice! Congrats!
NIce! And congrats on getting to inaugurate the inaugural IRK! The inIRKural! The IRKaugural!
@brainmist thanks. I just hope you get both your boxes soon!!!
@tinamarie1974 looks at weather forecast
looks at IRK, which was last seen about 120 miles east of here
laughs brokenly in FedEx
@brainmist
@tinamarie1974 You know, on the plus, their repeated claims that the package is undeliverable are raising my hopes to an unexpected pinnacle that the fine people at Meh have decided to reward/ punish my incessant whining by, in fact, shipping me their remaining pallet of Martian watches, which by now are thoroughly obsolete, have completely drained batteries, and are unwanted by basically everyone on the planet except me.
Why do I want them? I DON’T KNOW. I just always liked them, from the Kickstarter on. Maybe I’ll sell them on Amazon. Maybe I’ll wear 15 at a time. The possibilities are ENDLESS.
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 I got a new unused martian watch in 2019 which my daughter sold on ebay for $ 85 so there still may be a market for them.
@Felton10 @tinamarie1974 WHA? I have been wearing mine like a fool!
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 Surprised the hell out of me especially since she kept all the money as she does on all the meh IRK stuff she sells. But she is still pissed I didn’t give her the x box to sell. Told her the one who wants to use it gets it.
@brainmist @Felton10 @tinamarie1974 I agree - it was better to give it to the one who’s actually enjoying it!
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 this
Congratulations on that beautiful child joining your family!!
@robthedude05 @tinamarie1974 Does it have a name yet?
@robthedude05 @sammydog01 @tinamarie1974 How about Walter.
@Felton10 @robthedude05 @sammydog01 well, walter is so much more handsome
@robthedude05 @sammydog01 @tinamarie1974 Can’t argue with that.
Is that doll from… that one Halloween video? Of the dolls? I don’t remember which year.
Edit: this video
Maybe? If more work was done on the body? Or it could be a totally different doll, perhaps from an un-published meh Halloween video.
SUPER cool in any case, although I am glad I did not receive it.
@mossygreen could be. Looks like it
@mossygreen @tinamarie1974 The one at the end? YES! I checked out the macabre museum but didn’t see it.
I forgot about that video! My doll looks like a sister of the one in the lavender dress.
@mossygreen @sammydog01 @tinamarie1974 the one holding her ripped off face is my favorite.
@mossygreen @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 Mine too.
@mossygreen You are right that one was the one in the video… I decided to distress the body a little before sending it… I am trying to sneak a few one of a kind dolls and other creations in as I can… Some may be the ones featured… others maybe completely new and never before seen.
@RiotDemon @sammydog01 The face off doll is one of my favorites too… and will forever remain a part of my personal collection.
@sammydog01 you have a good eye… Your Doll is in fact the same doll as the one in the lavender dress… I was not happy with the original work so I took her back to my shop and revamped her look
@Koolhandjoe The new version is way creepier. I put her on my dresser to scare off burglars.
Do you actually sew the dresses?
@sammydog01 Nope… I just dyed the original… I have no sewing skills wha…sew…ever… I have one in a straight-jacket that a friend of mine sewed… but other than that I typically just alter the original clothes by dying or adding stuff to it
@Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 That face off doll is magnificent! They’re all beautifully creepy!
Well-your good haul didn’t not disprove my theory. First of all, not one, but two half way decent speakers and second bubble wrap-they only put bubble wrap in to protect stuff worth protecting.
Think from now on bubble wrap and the amount thereof will be gold standard for if your IRK is worth protecting. This was the amount of bubble wrap I got with my IRK.
@Felton10 THAT is some serious bubble! I had about 1/3 the wrap.
@Felton10 Was your IRK entirely bubble wrap? Great score, if so.

@mossygreen @robthedude05 Actually used most of the bubble wrap to rewrap it and send it to my son.
@Felton10 I sure hope your theory is wrong! My Meh hasn’t even shipped yet. At this rate, it’s just going to be 120 Superman gift bags and a broken mug.
@eggsterminate Me also-mine hasn’t shipped yet and I too have noticed that those toward the end of the shipping process get mass quantities of gift bags.
@eggsterminate @Felton10 Oh, then by that reasoning mine should be interesting. It’s due today.
/giphy logical
@Felton10 Seeing as my IRK contained no bubble wrap, there may well be some validity to your theory. Despite the sticker on the robo vacuum indicating a $129 price tag, I’d be hard pressed to be willing to spend even 1/10 on this if I actually saw it in a store. It’s really more of a toy than a vacuum. At least it’s brand new, dust free and I spent less than 1/20. If nothing else, I got some good white elephant gifts and a couple of bottles of screen cleaners out of it!
KuoH
@kuoh I got the EXACT SAME contents as you in my IRK! Only problem is my vacuum was USED and full of dirt and the lid wouldn’t stay closed so it went right in the trash along with the Clawz that were used as indicated by dirt on the soles. Only kept the tracker, screen cleaner & bag which I figure is close to what I paid for the suspense of the unknown mystery of the coveted IRK!! Maybe next time I’ll have better luck.
Hmm me thinks that doll should be saved for the next mehrican unofficial exchange…
So Meh, I want to officially apologize for being mad about my last Irk because you guys apparently are psychic and knew exactly what I was needing. And by that I mean the air purifier.
As I’m reading this post my doorbell rang and non other than my heavy and packed to brim is my IRK and it’s fucking awesome. I got
DIPLOMAT! RAT-A-TAT! FAT CAT! AWESOME!
@Star2236 how about the trophy. What does it say??
@Star2236 ![enter image description here][1]
And wrapped in bubble wrap was my own trophy for “congrats on adulting” definitely saving for next meh exchange.
[1]:
@Star2236 That is a fabulous haul!
@Star2236 Told everyone bubble wrap was the gold standard for how much good crap you got. Great haul.
@Star2236 I would keep that trophy for ever.
@Star2236 Do they sometimes put things in the pockets of the IRK bag???
@Dakini
Not that I’d ever seen but it be cool if they did.
@sammydog01
I got a boyfriend that thinks anything stupid should go in the trash. He’s very ocd about stuff lying out.
@Star2236
@Star2236 I so need that. The adulting, not the trophy. The trophy is nice, though.
@PocketBrain @Star2236 I need that trophy for my kid…not yet though.
/giphy hopeful
![][1]
I found a place for my trophy for the time being.
[1]:
@Star2236 You know you’re an adult when your plants are alive.
@brainmist
And when they stay alive for more than a month.
@brainmist @Star2236 And if you notice if they’re dead.
Got mine today in near record time. I guess Meh wanted me to instantly regret this…
My box had “Fragile” stickers all over it, so I was really excited to see what crap, I mean really cool stuff Meh sent me.
Of course, there was the obligatory blue Meh bag (not pictured, 'cause when you’ve seen one, you’ve seen 'em all), A new and sealed “Vivo Per Lei Detox & Glow Trio” which my wife instantly claimed (funny, but if there’s nothing for her, she berates me), a 12 pack of plastic face mask frames (I was actually going to order some of these), and a fingertip pulse oximeter (Made in China).
Under it all were several carefully bubble-wrapped items. I’ve seen in prior posts that if there’s bubble wrap, it’s gotta be something worth protecting. I’m here to officially let the air out of that balloon…
I received 5 (yes FIVE) bottles of Lester’s Fixin’s soda in lovely assorted flavors…
Pickle Juice flavor
Mustard flavor
Butter flavor
Ranch Dressing flavor
Buffalo wing flavor.
I’m afraid. I mean scared totally shitless…
@andrewkl
Wtf? Where the hell are they getting this stuff from? I dare you to drink one of them.
@andrewkl @Star2236 Once they went to the Goodwill place where you buy stuff by the pound. I got a purple shirt that smelled funny. The good time’s are back!
@Star2236 My kids and I decided that we’ll split one tonight at dinner. I was really excited after seeing the very first poster and all his bubble wrap and the “Fragile” stickers. I must admit, Meh didn’t disappoint
@andrewkl @Star2236 Yes! Make sure to report back!
@andrewkl @sammydog01 @Star2236 I remember reading about the purple shirt that smelled funny!
@andrewkl @Star2236 bubble wrap again-congrads.
@andrewkl Lets see the amount of abdominal distress you encounter by drinking one of those-that will determine whether it is a good IRK or not.
@andrewkl looks like Lester’s expanded their soda line!
@andrewkl @Star2236 No response since he said he and one of his kids were going to try one at dinner. Makes sense. Visits to the ER take a long time these days.
@sammydog01 @Star2236 So, we tried a couple of these drinks last night, and to be honest, they weren’t horrible. Carbonated, sweet with a HINT of the flavor suggested on the bottle. Not my first choice of refreshments, but if it was all I had on a desert island, it would suffice. Definitely NOT adding to my shopping list though…
@andrewkl when we go on vacation near a Rocket Fizz we always buy a couple of strange soda flavors to try. We’ve never wanted to make a second purchase of any of them but they’re entertaining.
Mine shipped today after I have posted all this stuff about what constitutes a good IRK (getting it early and bubble wrap). I expect mine to be the worst of the worst-arriving thursday.
@Felton10 Don’t worry, you won’t get the worst of the worst. Mine hasn’t even shipped yet.
@Felton10 Mine hasn’t shipped either, You’re bound to get some good midlevel stuff.
@NTGrrl @eggsterminate Well I have two things going against me-all my posts on this thread about trying to beat or figure out their system and what I got I in my IRK last time. Both of these point to them trying to get even.
No asobu mugs yet??? Wow.
@RiotDemon
You haven’t got yours yet though lol
Got an IRK and COVID the same time. Will let you know later.
@pooflady how are you feeling?
@pooflady oh no! Stay on it!
Hopefully there was an oximeter in the IRK.
@pooflady Bad luck. Hope you are doing OK. Which one was worse?
@pooflady
Sending you love, prayers and lots of good positive energy! Hope you’re asymptomatic and it just fizzles away.
@pooflady Dear heavens, you’re not supposed to do that. How are you today?
@pooflady
@pooflady Hope you are still doing OK enough to post. Sorry you are having to go through this.
@pooflady Doc said the main symptom of COVID after shortness of breath is sleeping. I got that one. Thanks for all the posts. I’ll let you know every once in a while.
So I got this lamp(?) in my box, assembled it, plugged it in, it started beeping, slow at first, then it got faster, one flash and then nothing. No idea what it is, but I’m sure it’s busted.
@falcomoacyr I bet there’s a fun story behind that. Are there any markings on the bottom?
@falcomoacyr Did you get anything else besides the broken lamp?
@falcomoacyr
Still not sure I understand what it is, but the magic of Google Lens brought me here: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Transer-38W-UV-C1eaning-Light-San1tizer-38W-Ultravioet-Dis1nfection-Lamp-with-Remote-Control-Ultravioet-Germ1cldal-Ster1lizer-with-Ozone/462728623?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=16214
@falcomoacyr Classic bomb behaviour, if I’ve paid attention to my Hollywood stories.
You ded?
RIP in peace.
@falcomoacyr So it kinda sounds like it worked, and also like you shouldn’t have stayed in the room…
“After the timer is turned on, people need to leave the scope of the disinfection lamp. Prevent UV damage to people.”
@falcomoacyr @goldbond63
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Beyblade-Burst-Rise-Hypersphere-Vertical-Drop-Battle-Set-Game/495611520
So i’m wondering how many others got sidetracked by items recently looked at and how many games of interactive play did they do? As for me, about 7! Not sure it would hold my 5 year old grandsons attention for as long!
@falcomoacyr @goldbond63 Based on their cautions, this sounds like a UV-C light. Um. Definitely use the remote. But if you want to disinfect groceries before bringing them in the main house, this might be useful? (I am automatically a bit skeptical on the quality of a product that substitutes “1” for letters.)
https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/coronavirus-covid-19-and-medical-devices/uv-lights-and-lamps-ultraviolet-c-radiation-disinfection-and-coronavirus
@Dakini yes, a small purse with a rechargeable battery, a pair of pink claws, and a TrakR Pixel
@brainmist there was a yellow flash, and there are burn marks at the bottom of the bulb. Part of the problem was that the lamp was packaged in a Lenovo box and included no instructions
@falcomoacyr
That’s a bit terrifying. Is it working? Is it about to burst into flames? Will it kill you either way???
@brainmist @falcomoacyr Instant tanning lamp!
@falcomoacyr
@falcomoacyr That thing is a sanitizer…you are not supposed to be in the same room when that is on…we use them at work to kill the Covid…it kills my plants…not sure what it does to humans
That doll is everything. I am so envious.
@Pony @tinamarie1974
I can’t wait to see what you do with him/her!
@Lynnerizer @Pony @tinamarie1974 Epic adventures.
Everyone is getting cool stuff and I got 2 left knockoff crocks. crockoffs?
also included was a 13" Macbook Pro case
trackr pixel
totally not fake gold chinese earrings
navy IRK bag
@clonetek Looks like all the good stuff is gone and the rest of us will get the drek.
@clonetek I got the exact same stuff.
@clonetek
Or not! 
Definitely some IR in your IRK!!
Sure as heck hope you didn’t lose “too much” sleep tryin to score it. I guess you can look back at how much fun it was, you know, the thrill of the chase and all…
@clonetek Got the exact same IRK as you except for the earrings. Definitely el crapo.
@clonetek @luistapia
Same IRK here also with earrings but a proper pair of clawz.
Another twin
Nothing was broken, only one item was a return. Not bad! Two Laundry by Design double loop scarves (81 degrees here today), a 20 DVD Charlie’s Angels complete collection, a charging station for Apple products, a fingertip oximeter, a nightlight, a really nice pair of BluVue glasses, and an enormous IRK bag. Score!
@OldCatLady
I bet you’ll be wearing those scarves soon lol
@Star2236 Not anytime soon! Our forecast says 60s the rest of the month.
@OldCatLady
We just got snow today
I got the motherload of used and returned items!
1x returned ihome led lamp + wireless charging station
1x returned easyslice 5 set serrated knives
1x returned spiderman/venom kid’s art kit
1x returned*? Top half of a 3 leaf clover suit
1x scratched up sunglasses
1x MKF purse
1x sensor led light
1x irk bag
I usually regift these things, so what am I supposed to do now?? LOL
P.S. if anyone wants the shamrock top suit (if the bottom part appears?) Lemme know and as long as you pay for shipping, I can send it to you
@joshua7kim
The knives might be fine, they look ok.
Pretty good IRK haul. I took the time to track down the original Mediocre deals they came from
If I can get the scooter fixed up this will be the best IRK ever.

@DoctorOW That looks fun! Seems repairable!
@DoctorOW
I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to buy another charger, that’s awesome!
PANS! GLANDS! CRAYONS! AWESOME!
@DoctorOW @raccoon81 NICE HAUL!
@DoctorOW Wow! Nice haul!
My IRK arrived yesterday and I was super pleased even though most of the items appear to be returns.
Phone UV sanitizer. (Works? It lights up but does it really do anything? Guess it can’t hurt?)
USB C keychain battery pack.(works)
Massage gun (turns on but doesn’t stay running and throws up an error code. No idea where to start with that.)
Wireless charging pad (works)
Touchless thermometer (works)
Green irk bag (works)
Kung Fu Zombies 7 movies!!! SEVEN! (Never opened)
Simulator PC 10 game pack! Forklift, snowcat, NY taxi, NY bus, dangerous roads, firefighter, australian road trains, wood cutting, mining & tunneling, and agriculture equipment! (Never opened. So much simulation!)
And the thing I was most excited about! Inside a bubble mailer with C A H scribbled on it was some expansion sets! Red box, nerd bundle, dad pack, and 2000s nostalgia pack. I have some of the nerd bundle but the rest was new to me!
Score!
@RiotDemon I got that massager last time. It scares me. Let me know how the movies are. CONGRATS!
@sammydog01 I figured out if I keep hitting the power button I can cycle through the levels and get it up to speed, but as soon as I stop that, it quits. It seems like it would work out some serious knots!
The movies look super terrible! I feel like I need to save them for a group movie night, lol.
@RiotDemon I just watched Llamageddon on Prime. Bad movies are the best.
@RiotDemon @sammydog01 You could hold a Meh Movie Marathon. During a Meh-rathon!
@brainmist @RiotDemon $10.59 on Amazon- we could all watch with you!
@brainmist @sammydog01 lol, too fun.
@RiotDemon @sammydog01 I’ll bet this could be zoomed…
@RiotDemon @sammydog01 So I got the same massager, and it seems to keep going once it’s charged. Did you see there’s an on/off on the bottom? I completely missed that at first.
@brainmist @sammydog01 yeah if it’s off it doesn’t turn on at all.
It starts and stops and throws up “Er”. I’m tempted to pull it apart but I really have no idea what to look for.
Damn. I was hoping you were gonna say “what the hell is Cards Against Humanity”?? And then I would have offered to take some of the packs off your hands…
@andrewkl haha, sorry! I’m keeping my $60 worth of cards. I couldn’t believe my luck.
Mine is still in processing limbo…
@bobby555 Mine shipped an hour ago.
@sammydog01 you lucky doggie
@bobby555 @sammydog01 Mine also just shipped today… Clawz and gift bags, woo hoo!
@ciabelle @sammydog01 yay!!!
So my IRK contained a few of these items (yeah, that’s right, I saw the evil goatee. DIE, ANTHROPOMORPHIZED IRK, DIE!)
No bubblewrap, just tightly packed. A decent haul:
-IRK bag
-hands free soap dispenser (possibly opened, but clean, works)
-charger base thing (initially I thought it was an actual charger, but it’s a decent little holder)
-UV sanitizer/diffuser (for when you believe in science AND essential oils to fight the plague! UV-B, though, so less effective/deadly than the Lamp of Invisible Death)
-3rd Rock From the Sun complete series, and now I’m trying to remember which of my friends is a super fan.
And then there was this mystery case at the bottom. Quite solid.
Seems well built…
Some… Unusual attachments…
WTH?
Um.
Wait. This wasn’t wrapped. WAS THIS A RETURN?
DISINFECT DISINFECT DISINFECT!!!
Shoulda loaded that handsfree soap dispenser!
@brainmist Just what you want and need-a used massage gun. As you said-be very careful with the attachments. You never know where they have been.
@brainmist @Felton10
/giphy ewwe
@Felton10 I kinda think if it had been, that’s the reason for return. The lowest setting (once I figured out that the standard computer “on” symbol was power level, and there was an on/off switch at the bottom) is basically “Jackhammer”, and it scales up 20 steps from there.
I really hope no one was using this as that ribbed attachment suggests. Orifices are not designed for that!
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 Sending out used and returned personal items like that is not in good taste.
@brainmist Someone has to ask-sounds like you speak from experience.
@brainmist @Felton10 you know you can sanitize things, right?
@Felton10 @tinamarie1974 It’s Meh. Good taste is for pasta.
I don’t know that it’s actually used… Just not boxed or wrapped. But I’ll probably be pitching that ribbed attachment if I keep this. As an actual massager, it seems pretty good? I guess?
Or maybe I’ll pass this along to friends whose tastes run towards jackhammers.
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 Someone who already has an assortment of tools?
@brainmist @Felton10 I have one of those guns and they are fantastic! For the record I have only used it on my neck and shoulders TYVM
@Felton10 @RiotDemon And they DID send me a UV sanitizer and a hand sanitizer dispenser wait now I’m starting to wonder if this is a comment on my personal habits…
@Felton10 @tinamarie1974 I confess I also gave it a try (with the most legitimately massage looking attachment) on my poor tense trapezius because it’s been over a year since my last massage, and who knows when for my next. And it did loosen things up but wow! A lower setting would be ok…
@brainmist @Felton10 I’ve only used that round poofy ball thing on a low or medium setting. I think jackhammer was a great description! But I’m in the same boat as you. I am paying for q monthly massage membership, but don’t want to take a chance with covid…so nothing for about a year. It helps, but it is not the same
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 Hmmm-a question answered before it was asked. Very interesting.
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 I think all the attachments on yours (and mine I must confess) are for massages. It just depends the type of massage you are looking for.
@brainmist @Felton10 agree, that is a different tool for a very different job!
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 Unfortunately we bought a under the desk exercise foot petal “bike” right when this Covid stuff started. Have over 1,400 miles on it which we slowly have stopped using.
@brainmist @Felton10 but doesn’t that happen with exercise equipment? Mine always turns into something to hang the wet clothes on lol
@brainmist 3rd Rock From the Sun is a score!
@mossygreen quietly jots down notes for future Meh exchanges
@brainmist haha, fun IRK. You DID check the pockets in the bag, right? If it is not a prank, some people are finding money tucked in the side pockets, seems like only in the black bags.
@brainmist @Dakini I think it is a prank
@brainmist @tinamarie1974 I think it is too, but since mine is coming tomorrow I am hoping it isn’t! haha
@brainmist @Dakini
Looks like meh bought a shit load of old movies and TV programs-hoping I get “Debbie does Dallas”.
@Felton10
How do I ALWAYS KNOW it’s YOU Felton when I read certain comments? Going back to see who said that, I haven’t been wrong yet!!
@Felton10
Btw great irk, enjoy!!
@Lynnerizer I’m not sure if that is a complement or an insult. I will take it as a complement and assume you like my posts.
I got BUBBLE WRAP!!! Expectations were then high.
I’ll take a phone tomorrow to upload. Too tired right now.
The bubble wrap was around a batmobile adult collectors only. Too bad as I initially thought I could give it to the 7 year old on his 8th birthday but if it wasn’t built for kids it would get destroyed in 2 seconds flat as much as it would be loved. And then there would be tears. Hopefully I can sell it for enough to then buy a kid version. Actually I need to take it out of the box first and see how sturdy it is. If it is sturdy enough then I will give it to him. He has a spiderman bike I got dumpster diving (just needed air in the tires) that he absolutely loves. So something from another super hero would make his day.
Table top air hockey game. Very small but then I live in a small place with small tables. This will be loved by the 6 and 7 year old and maybe even the 4 year old.
Green irk bag, some used head phones (don’t know if they work and haven’t looked carefully to see if they are gross), brand new men’s large heavy duty yellow rain coat (haven’t unwrapped it yet but it might be made in Canada as it has a maple leaf on the tag) and some other small things I can’t remember at the moment. I’ll make a better list in the morning.
The air hockey thing, presuming it works, is a big win. Stuff for the kids is always so nice. The rain coat is probably too big for me but I can pass it on to my friend who got burned out last October. That will be a win there.
Thanks meh! After a couple of really really forgettable ones (the worst one was 4 or 5 ear buds all of them gross and broken and an irk bag. That was it.) this makes up for it.
meant to say photo not phone. As I said I am really tired.
@Kidsandliz Bubble wrap wins again. Told everyone the more bubble wrap the better the IRK.
@Kidsandliz
You dumpster dive? Awesome. What cool stuff have you found? I’ve always wanted to go but most places around me have the newer dumpsters that eat everything.
POPSOCKETS! SPA KITS! POLLY POCKETS! AWESOME!
From morningsave:
*Noize Kate raincoat and it is a WOMAN’S size!! so I can wear it (from morningsave and sold out there). Brand new!
*Blue light blocking reading glasses (I do not need bifocals this strong through), appears to be new.
*Ifrogz Impluse headphones (a return, need cleaned, charging now to see if they work)
*Small 2” diameter thunder bluetooth speaker. Sealed package so hopefully works. Charging now.
*Mini Cannonball Tabletop Air Hockey game – has been opened so need to see if it works before it becomes a kid birthday present.
*Those under face mask plastic things.
And from who knows where: Matel Batmoblie says “Adult collector” on the box but I think it will survive a kid. Will have to find 6” Batman and Robin figures for it. One kid birthday solved!
*Green irk bag
@Kidsandliz Definitely a nice hall-got those same headphones with my last IRK along with the xbox-they sell for $ 30 alone.
@Felton10 Yes after a long drought I got lucky and have things 2 kids will be thrilled with when they get them this March and April on their birthdays. I am hoping the headphones work and need to clean them up before use but going to wait to do that until I know if they even work. Still charging.
Lemme see here…
.
@PocketBrain YOU HAVE TO SHOW US THE CLOWN HEAD IN A BOX! It’s a rule.
@sammydog01 I know, I know. Was positioning all the stuff for the group photo.
.
@PocketBrain Sorry, I got excited.
@PocketBrain @sammydog01 sunglasses are super cute!
@sammydog01
.
.
The box has a “distressed” look, but it’s fresh paint. I’m going to display this next time the rental people inspect.
@PocketBrain Thank you for the close-up. Another amazing exhibit from the Macabre Museum.
@sammydog01 I think the “aromatherapy” function in the sanitizer needs a smell cartridge or somesuch. The only aroma I’m getting is ozone.
@PocketBrain Sanitize a banana?
@PocketBrain @sammydog01 UV Bananatizer 3000!
@PocketBrain @sammydog01 @tinamarie1974
Right, there not old lady sunglasses.
@brainmist @PocketBrain @sammydog01 you have to put a few drops of essential oils inside the thing that looks like a speaker hole.
I did not test mine.
Old movie and TV shows and scary faces-wonder what kind of weird shit Meh has gotten into now. I guess the days of candy corn and figit spinners are gone for good.
@Felton10 I do believe they sent doll body parts in the past and some manikin body parts. And they still have the baby arm from ages ago around somewhere - well at least no one has admitted to getting it in an irk. Of course they haven’t used it in a while. Too bad.
@Kidsandliz I get mine tomorrow and with all the weird stuff people are getting, all bets are off.
@Felton10 @Kidsandliz hoping you get something packed in lots of bubble wrap!
@Felton10 It does look like they are getting rid of stuff left over after the recent morningsave clearance sales. All my stuff but one came from that. And the batmobile might have too only I maybe missed it when I googled.
@Kidsandliz @tinamarie1974 I have created a monster with the bubble wrap.
@Kidsandliz One really wonders where they get all this stuff-lots of one of a kind things. But with the experience and connections the king Meh had from Woot and now Meh, people are probably coming to him to unload their junk for next to nothing rather than trash it.
@Kidsandliz @tinamarie1974 I am sure my wife is wondering why I am making pop pop pop sounds in the middle of the night rather than normal snoring sounds. I expect to hear Walter making those popping sounds soon.
@Felton10 @Kidsandliz wait, does Walter play with bubble wrap?!.!..!
@Kidsandliz @tinamarie1974 Walter only plays with things he can chew on and destroy. He used to chew on the sides of the doors on the wood cabinets in the bathroom. For some reason whenever Walter starts walking around the house he ends up in one of the bathrooms-usually the master bathroom-both in our current house and the one which we moved from a year ago.
Got mine today…sorry no pic.
Black Irk bag
Clawz…too small.
Mona b scarf (bamboo)
TrackR pixel. find things with your smart phone…well,
everything except your lost phone.
Snap Jacket laptop case…13" (my computer’s 15")
So…nothing I can really use, (and NO bubble wrap!), but hey… I’ve had great Irk’s before, so I really can’t complain.
Thanks, Meh!
@Tadlem43 I’ve actually used the Trackr to find my lost (in my apartment) phone before. As long as they’re synced and the phone has blutooth on, you press the Trackr until it beeps and it makes an alarm go off on your phone.
@jcpseattle Oh, cool! I didn’t know that. I was just being a SA anyway. lol But thanks for the info!
Just got mine. No pic cause why depress ya’ll, too.
Green Irk bag
Trackr in pink - I’ll try it, kinda cool
Pink Lemonade body lotion
Monster screen cleaner
+2.0 reading glasses - I’m not that blind. yet.
Pockets were empty
Congrats to all who got cool stuff!!
Mine arrived and heres my haul!
Amazingly Mediocre!
1x zipper bag by Shiraleah
1x TrackE pixel (hot pink and only one in box)
1x silver polish kit with a sponge, the liquid and a napkin
1x Disney Infinity Star Wars Anakin Skywalker figure in box
A classy blueish black IRK bag
Amazingly Mediocre indeed!
The FedEx man delivered a huge 17"x 17"x17" box today! Upon seeing it, I could barely contain my excitement. My high hopes came quickly crashing down when I bent over to pick up the box and it was light as a feather. By far the most regretful IRK I’ve received to date!
1 TrackR pixel purple/pink in color
1 pack of 2 bottles of Monster Flatscreen cleaner with microfiber cloth
1 pair of Pink Clawz size M4 W6 - no kids in the house yet…1 on the way!
1 TreStiQue Mini Lip Glaze in Mumbai Magenta - I don’t wear lip glaze… My wife would never wear the bright pink Mumbai Magenta
1 Lime IRK bag - I love IRK bags. They make the best reusable grocery bags. You can fit so many groceries in one bag and conveniently carry them on your shoulder when they are really heavy. Plus they have side pockets for coupons or your grocery list! …I’m talking up the bag to make myself feel better about it being the only thing that won’t be going in the trash/given away…
Extremely Meh! Thanks!
A little of this…a little of that!
Not bad considering it was a consolation IRK because knockoff Meh pop sockets went into witness protection.
Laura Ashley watch - wife might take it, or may go to our neice.
Trakr Pixel - or, battery filled key fob
Blue light filtering +2.0 reading glasses - not in picture as the kid already took them
Requisite blue IRK bag - with something called a krugerrand in the pocket
Monster screen cleaner - now my monster will have the cleanest screen on the block!
Fascia massager - unused, thanks! AND, in luxurious pearl white!
Hedgren back pack - I wear it around the house and pretend I’m on an adventure. Yeah, business is slow right now…
Thanks for the stuff! It all works and was certainly fun!
@ybmuG krugerrand like in the gold or silver coin? Or something else?
@Kidsandliz
@ybmuG
Love your explanation of the back pack.
@Kidsandliz @ybmuG That’s
GOLD, Dude! If that’s 1 oz., it’s worth about $2000 bucks!
Check it!
@ybmuG If that is real you may have just won the best irk in history. Reading about it there are fake ones out there. But who knows. With the previous discussion of stuff never in pockets this could be meh’s own private joke. (grin). Let us know if it checks out as real. So cool if it does!!!
https://www.capewatch.co.za/how-to-spot-a-fake-krugerrand/
@Kidsandliz @ybmuG
Thank goodness for Google or i’d STILL be scratching my head about “what IS a Krugerrand” and the story behind it? Great box and cool find in the pocket!!
@Kidsandliz @Lynnerizer @ybmuG Shame there’s no picture of the Krugerrand with the IRK bag.
@blaineg @Kidsandliz @Lynnerizer Funny, that.
My first ever IRK!
@lindseylulu You did good!
@lindseylulu @sammydog01 yes, VERY good! Sucked you in, they did. High expectations set, they have. Dash them soon, they will.
And welcome! Glad you joined the party!
True middle of the road IRK. Not trash and kinda fun stuff.
A very small amount of bubble wrap for those tracking such things.
This IRK isn’t total regret, so might play again.
@raccoon81
The silver stuff seems pretty cool, I do crafts a lot; so I’d use it. The purse light would be useful to me as long as it was light, I’m always searching in the bottom of my big purse.
@raccoon81 Maybe @ybmuG will lend you his kruggerand to plate.
@raccoon81 @sammydog01 Silver-plated gold…it’s GENIUS!
@sammydog01 @ybmuG right, not sure what metals I need to plate with silver. Make a silver gold dollar? Maybe so I can smuggle my vast gold bars out of the country as silver bars!
@Star2236 the video on Amazon site shows using the light up pack to view menu at a restaurant. But both sides light up so it would blind you as well. Hard to feel necessary when your phone has a light on it.
@raccoon81 @sammydog01 @ybmuG Is it silver lacquer, some sort of electroplating lot (which seems unlikely… I think silver electroplating involves arsenic), or fake silver coloring?
@raccoon81 Thanks for the bubble wrap update. I am keeping track on a spreadsheet as the one who brought this to the forefront to begin with.
@brainmist @sammydog01 @ybmuG I think it is more chemical reaction or just coating in the bottle. No electroplating at all going on.
@Felton10 @raccoon81 Add mine to the “no bubble wrap” column.
@raccoon81 @ybmuG Thanks-consider this your official notification that you have been recorded in the “no” column.
@Felton10 @raccoon81 it wouldn’t be the first time
@raccoon81
Maybe give it to some kids, they like lights to play with. Or use it as work light. It would be great if work on cars probably.
@melanie413 Nice haul. I once got a bunch of other stuff in a robotic vacuum box along with the robotic vacuum.
@melanie413 love the socks!
@melanie413 not exactly what it is designed for but I got one of the vibration platforms and I use it at my desk as foot rest and the vibration is nice when been sitting a long time to wake the legs up.
@ybmuG Thanks! I love flamingos!
So I get home and am eagerly searching for my IRK as I received a message saying it was delivered. I don’t see a brown box anywhere. Then I see this Vibration Platform box and wonder if maybe I had been sleep Amazon shopping or had a memory lapse. (Completely possible). Alas, I opened the box to reveal two TrackR pixels (one pink and one PURPLE!), a 2 pack of Monster Screen cleaner and the unmistakable green IRK bag. Super fun!
My Irk arrived. No bubblewrap, but the fakeout xbox had plenty of it.
Contents:
Thanks, Meh!
@djslack I’m afraid the bubble wrap recording started with this IRK, but if you want I can mention you in the footnotes in the biggest disappointment section.
@djslack I’ve been using that brand silverware for a very long time now. They are nice!
@djslack @RiotDemon Yeah, I have some. Quite solid!
@djslack @RiotDemon You can go an extra week without doing the dishes!
@djslack Real gold bullion?? So cool you guys are getting those!!
@Tadlem43 I think it’s real… Haven’t tasted it yet.
Oh yeah, I had a small typo. Gold boullion. Chicken, I think.
Check this thread for stuff a few very, very lucky people are finding in their irk bag pockets.
https://meh.com/forum/topics/uh-guys-be-sure-to-check-the-pockets-of-your-irk-bag
My box will be here this weekend, fedex states the box size is 6x4x1. What could it be in such a small box? Maybe filled will $$ or a
or gold coins…
@Chrisg958 I got the same tracking info and I got it for the IRK I won and also for Popsockets I bought that they didn’t have in the Warehouse. I’m stymied, really that small?
@Chrisg958 @funsyd the box isn’t really that small. That’s just a placeholder size.
@Chrisg958 @RiotDemon thanks for that info geez I should know that.
@funsyd don’t sweat it. It comes up every time an IRK is sold.
I got
1 pair blue boot socks
1 Silver Kit
A size 44 men’s belt
A Halo Powerglo light/powerbank
1 blue IRK bag with empty pockets
Much regret indeed
Thanks guys
I keep seeing all sorts of things I hope are in my IRK. It just passed through Chicago, headed for MN.
1#, 6x4x1", just like Chrisg958 above. Very curious.
@romellex I could have written that. Just checked, mine is coming tomorrow, just passed through Chicago and headed for MN. Same size, same weight. funny
@Dakini @romellex Hey guys, it’s a placeholder weight and size. They all started that way, it doesn’t mean anything.
@romellex @sammydog01 I realize it is a placeholder, just funny that it was all the same, down to the last detail. Mine just better not be addressed to @romellex !!
@Dakini @romellex @sammydog01 they are all the same. I wonder if that’s the default setting when printing labels.
@RiotDemon @romellex @sammydog01 right, it is in fact the same. Woot does the same thing. I was mostly noting that romellex’s package stopped in Chicago and was headed to Minnesota, just like mine.
Was very Meh!
Received:
Certainly worth the $$ but nothing worth taking a photo of the haul to share.
Side note for those tracking…scored this IRK somewhere around 10am in the Mehrathon and mine shipped on Tuesday, Jan 26.
@cbilyak I got the same stuff in my IRK. I thought the pouch was a knit winter hat at first. I may pull it out of the bag and try wearing it, although I don’t think it will be very comfortable. I also got a nice cardboard box with the IRK (everything else was packed in it). As far as my cats are concerned, the box is the best part of the IRK.
@gt0163c LOL, if you wear the pouch as a hat, you MUST post a pic!! Have fun with it however works best for you!!!
The one thing in my IRK that I don’t recognize is also the one thing without a box. Can someone please tell me what the black and white stand-looking thing is? Other than that, decent haul for $5.
@dajmom03 I feel like that black and white thing is a UV earbud sanitizer…but I also felt like I was going to win the Billion Dollar lottery and was wrong, so there is that.
@cbilyak @dajmom03 Charging stand for an Apple watch and phone. I have one in a box.
@cbilyak @dajmom03 It’s an Apple product charger stand (without chargers). You put all your chargers into this stand and then TA-DA!!! Very little changes!
(But I imagine it’s tidier.)
It does seem reasonably solidly constructed. I have a lot of Apple product fans in the fam, so I’m sure I can find mine a home.
The envy I have for the green bags is on the same level I had for the navy bags before… and the red before that… someday!!
@irish3md I want a green bag. Got my third blue bag today.
@irish3md me too! Green is my fave color…however, my BOC from that other site arrived today and that bag was green
@cbilyak @irish3md
Do tell, (maybe whisper) what “other place” do you get YOUR boxes of crap from? I’m a BOC fan myself, always trying new places! Just got a great one last week but unfortunately NO cool color bags though!
@irish3md @Lynnerizer just Woot…was not going to mention them by name on the Meh site is all. No new Earth shattering data to share, sorry
No money–
No bubble wrap–
No picture-not even worth it this time
A scarf
Pair of white imitation crocks
Tracking device
IRK bag-not even a new color
Some kind of hard tablet case
Filled with regret
@Felton10
Oh boy, even " I " feel your regret!!
@Lynnerizer Embarrassment also as our daughter is here visiting us and she saw me open it. But the fake Claws actually fit her and she is thinking whether she wants to take them home with her.
No $$$ or bubble wrap.
• Green bag
• Trackr_pixel
• Anakin Skywalker
• 2 - Multi-Function Mosquito Lamp - 1 not in box + extra usb cables
• Very tiny bristle brush
Not sure I want to use the mosquito lamps, the box says “Special effects lighting technology to protect mosquitos.” I’d prefer to eradicate them.
Thx meh.
@bluebeatpete Wow, almost exactly same as mine below, I was fortunate to get a tumbler dropped in with mine.
@bluebeatpete
A tiny brush for cleaning up tiny bug guts! How perfect!!
@Lynnerizer Yup, that was my thought too.
@bluebeatpete @heatherleighsmi
Ditto! Add in a bubble envelop wrapped single serving bowl.
A nice box arrived today with FRAGILE stickers all over…got my hopes up. A bubble-wrapped item revealed…
…the shattered remnants of a gold unicorn lamp…major bummer.
…and I got some other stuff…
@EthelTheFrog GLUE! GO BUY GLUE! That’s a shame, it looks cool.
@EthelTheFrog @sammydog01 I used up all the glue…on purpose!
@sammydog01 Worth a shot if it were a few pieces… but this is some humpty dumpty shit.
@EthelTheFrog @sammydog01 Partially because I like puzzles, and largely because it looks magnificent, I would still try.
If it’s still awful, you can ask @Koolhandjoe for pointers on monsterifying it.
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe AWESOME IDEA!
POPSOCKETS! SPROCKETS! DAVY CROCKETT! AWESOME!
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @sammydog01 I am always willing to offer pointers… Some E6000 glue and a little elbow grease it could be good as new… apply heavy so it drips out in between and paint the drips red… MONSTERFIED!!!.. and I am stealing and using that word from now on… willing to teach corpsing too… but that may have to be its own thread one day
@Felton10 Look at all that bubble wrap!
@EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 I’d love that to be a thread! I generally stick to monsterifying myself (and corpsifying, and for Valentine’s, demonizing), but I’ve seen some cool things done with Precious Moments figurines that have me thinking fun thoughts.
@EthelTheFrog love the socks!!!
@brainmist @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 if you love that kind of stuff you’d probably enjoy this YouTube channel I’ve been watching for years:
/youtube stiltbeast studios graveyard statue 2020
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 oooOOOOOoooo! Demonized Precious Moments! I can envision that - and it makes me smile!
@cbilyak In my despair, I failed to look at these. They might come in useful for long flights (if I ever resume flying). I could let go of a pair if you want. I tried on the ECG pair, but the hearts and ribbons styles are still uncontaminated.
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 @ybmuG also:
@EthelTheFrog you are so sweet! I have a healthy supply of compression socks though, THANK YOU for offering! I exercise regularly and when my legs are fatigued I find they really help.
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @ybmuG I’M GETTING EXCITED ABOUT NEXT HALLOWEEN! I may hit the thrift stores and look for dolls tomorrow.
@raccoon81 Showed this thread to a friend and was asked if bubble wrap turns me on?
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 @ybmuG
I JUST MIGHT HAVE TWO PORCELAIN DOLLS SITTING IN MY TRUNK ALREADY.
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @sammydog01
I feel a new thread coming on… “Monsterfy THIS”. Could be a YT channel - “Will it Monsterfy?”
@EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01 @ybmuG EVERYTHING can monsterify!
So here’s the monsterification of cutesy figurines: https://shopabernathys.com/collections/isabel-doom
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @ybmuG … i often have a few dolls in my trunk as well any given day… infact i picked up 17 porcelain dolls last weekend… and plan to start Monsterfying them this weekend… and typing out “i often have dolls in my trunk” just made me realize how odd i sound to people when explaining my hobby
@EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @ybmuG Nah. You’re among your people now.
I have an ax display in my living room. It makes me happy.
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @sammydog01
Or cover it with mod-podge!!
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @ybmuG
But officer - I’d never actually use one of my axes on anyone or anything. They are too valuable to risk breaking them were I to smash someone or something. Really. (grin)
@Kidsandliz
Believe it or not, the fancy display axes really are too sentimental… Two are handed down from relatives and around a century or older. And one is just very, very fancy (and old, but in very nice shape).
I keep that one in easy reach.
I live in an area where wandering around with an ax raises very few eyebrows though, especially during October.
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @ybmuG I just ordered a lot of six miniature porcelain dolls fron Goodwill online. TIME FOR MONSTERFICATION LESSONS!
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @ybmuG So my question… What would everyone like to see first?.. How to Monsterfy a doll?.. or corpse a skull?
@brainmist @EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @ybmuG I vote doll.
@EthelTheFrog @sammydog01 Kintsugi it!
@blaineg @EthelTheFrog @sammydog01 That’s really cool! Maybe I could melt down the krugerrand for the gold…
@EthelTheFrog @Koolhandjoe @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @ybmuG I also vote doll.
I’m utterly delighted by my surprise IRK (I ordered a popsocket but ended up with an IRK). No moolah in the pockets, but a nice purse holder from a racist lady, a pink fisher price my first bluetooth headphones, an electric purse, fuzzy shirt, IRK bag, and cat toy
@jakeline Nice stuff!
@jakeline Nice cats!
@jakeline
Mirror image cats, way cool!
@jakeline @Kidsandliz Nice cats - that was my thought too! Beautiful little faces!
What this box lacked in “Instant” it more than made up for in “Regret”!
(2) pair of Clawz
Screen cleaner
TrackR Pixel
Navy Bag
Will still Meh again!
Thanks!
@Hskrjer99 If it makes you feel better, I bought Clawz on purpose.
YEAH.
A tauntingly large box, but as you can see quite empty.
Nice bright green bag
Dumb trackR
Mosquito lamp - probably does nothing, at best kills good bugs
Twin sheet set - no use that size
Anakin Skywalker figurine
Last and best - a insulated wine tumbler.
Seriously, could have been in half the box, or added some useless bubble wrap (none here)
@heatherleighsmi The tumbler is pretty.
@heatherleighsmi @sammydog01 Ooooo! here’s me hoping for a wine tumbler or seven!
I’ll be back for more I’m sure because I’m a glutton for punishment.
Blue IRK bag
Claw Shoes
Silver Clean Kit
InCase Snap Jacket
a TrackR
What can I say…Meh
@sunnysideup22 Got the same exact! Twinsies
My first one arrived today
Travel set, figurine, mosquito lamp, and key tracker
Got my Irk today filled with:
1 Monster Screen Clean kit
1 pink tracks pixel,
1luxury home bamboo fiber sheet set I regret that this cal king set wont fit my tiny bed, or maybe I regret sleeping in a tiny bed, either way, regret is had
1 green irk bag, New year, new color new me?
Regret.
All in all, very meh
@steveswan54 Just tuck the sheets in- close enough.
@sammydog01 @steveswan54 Someone else was lamenting receiving a twin…sheet swap?
@brainmist @sammydog01 was gonna give them to my mom, they seem nice, but appreciate the thought
Most regret ever:
· White Clawz M4/W6 (way too small for me)
· Gold Incase Snap Jacket for 13" MacBook Pro (don’t have one of those)
· TrackR pixel (already have, don’t use)
· Navy IRK bag (empty pockets)
Going in donation bin, unless someone here wants. Meh.
@heartny Same group of shit stuff I got except for a scarf-Obviously since a number people got this same combo plus or minus one thing this was the bottom of the barrel IRK.
A simple haul.
So my actual IRK showed up today and it contained
![][1]
Oh, and a sturdy, oversized box that I’ll save for the next move. Which has me wondering - why doesn’t meh put multiple orders, even IRKs, in a single box? I mean it’s not like speed out the door is really an issue and it would likely save shipping costs. Just my random musings on a snowy Friday.
[1]:
@ybmuG
Best IRK yet!
-pink Bandolini wristlet$40 (not pictured).
-dashcam $40.
-green IRK bag- priceless.
-bamboo pillow $15.
-Jenni Chan rolling carry on bag. Over $100. Broke my nail trying to get the handle out but it’s worth it!
I’m sure this all went for less on Morningsave etc. but I’m happy! I can use all of this!
@gazer0375 Nice carry on!
@gazer0375
Very nice haul.
Very meh.
Blue irk bag!
Two pack monster screen cleaner.
Monster power ‘station’
Zip bag my daughter grabbed.
Scarf, but will which we are allergic to.
Bag pockets must have been pickpocketed.
Got a great one . . .i can actually use all this stuff! Oh my aching shoulders . . .gotta work out more and this can be tjlhe incentive. 1 Sonic Comfort neck shouldrr massager with heat. 2. Sharper image uv light phone sanitizer. 3 monster screen cleaner kit. 4 tracker for keys. 5 navy irk bag.
Yay!
Got mine today:
Pink claws size 4 - might be able to squeeze my feet in
TrackR Pixel - don’t carry keys
Flat screen cleaner - need for the and computers
Cute bag
Meh tote
All useable stuff this time
Regretful Day, and no bubble wrap or surprises in any pockets:
Blue bag; no Krugerrands!
Bottle of silver polish
Anakin Skywalker
TrackR
Claws size 4/6
No bubblewrap!
Meh!
@davidd13 @Felton10 might be interested in those claws
@davidd13 @Kidsandliz She does want the lime green ones.
@Felton10 @Kidsandliz I am very sorry, I already gave them to a neighbor’s kid
@davidd13 @Kidsandliz That all right-main thing is that somebody gets use of them rather than get thrown in the trash.
Not much to say - full metal meh.
What’s in the box?
@blaineg I love a mystery
@cbooboo2 As you wish!
I saw some folks saying they never got bubbles? I got them all! Feet and feet of big air bubbles.
@cbooboo2 According to FedEx, this box is 6x4x1 in. and weighs one pound.
@blaineg Lots and Lots of Bubbles
@cbooboo2 Vivitar! It must be a camera, right?
Maybe not.
It has been opened. I haven’t examined it for missing parts yet.
@blaineg @cbooboo2 How big was it really? Based on the amount of tape and boxes used, it looks as big as the PastaBox.
@brainmist @cbooboo2 Just shy of 2x3x4 feet. Multiple boxes taped together to make a bigger box.
@brainmist @cbooboo2 A generic, used, non-carpet roomba. Micro USB charger. Haven’t tried it yet.
@brainmist @cbooboo2 Dirty looking backpack and briefcase. I think they’re supposed to look like that. Fashion?
@brainmist @cbooboo2 Yo dawg, I heard you like boxes in your boxes!
It was folded down, but a very nice empty box in the box.
@brainmist @cbooboo2 Oooooh, the mythical, mysterious green IRK bag.
Oh, be right back, gotta check the pockets!
@blaineg Nope, the pockets were empty.
@blaineg @brainmist I think they’re distressed
Oh, wait, the box is still heavy. What’s under the bubbles?
@blaineg does it work?!?!
@tinamarie1974 Well, this IS Meh, after all.
The scooter is slightly used, slightly broken, and missing the charger.
It looks like I’ve got a bit of a project on my hands.
@blaineg well shoot. Hope you can get it working
@tinamarie1974 I’m sure I will, I’m actually quite excited about it. It’s a ridiculous little scooter I never would have bought, but is likely to be a lot of laughs.
Motorcycles & electronics are right up my alley, I’ve just never had a electric bike to fool around with before.
I found a charger on Amazon for $16, and it will be here tomorrow.
@tinamarie1974 Someone definitely crashed it. I wonder if it was in the warehouse?
Nothing major: cracked & scuffed plastic in a few places, and some things knocked out of place.
Look what I found in a roundabout way.
78 sold @ $400.
Fess up, who’s got one?
@blaineg And who in North Dakota bought three?
@blaineg @tinamarie1974
That’s awesome!
FOOLS! TOOLS! JEWELS! AWESOME!
@brainmist @cbooboo2 The Mahli vacuum took a charge and it works, but it’s not going to put Roomba out of business.
There was no manual, and I can’t find one online.
@blaineg Buy a helmet, OK?
@blaineg The charger is out for delivery. I can hardly wait to try this!
@sammydog01 Oh, I’ve learned the hard way about helmets, by smacking my head into stuff.
@brainmist @cbooboo2 They may have been going for “distressed” on the backpack and brief case, but they ended up with “mud spattered”.
@blaineg @cbooboo2 That is an impressive IRK!! Also, I cannot believe 78 people decided that buying that… Bike? Was a good idea.
@brainmist @cbooboo2 Definitely the best IRK, Fuko, or BoC I’ve ever scored!
@brainmist @cbooboo2 Having said that, the battery won’t take a charge. And on closer inspection there’s some damage to the battery pack’s plastic shell. Time to open it up and see what happened.
@blaineg @cbooboo2 bubble wrap strikes again.
@blaineg @cbooboo2 Good luck!
@blaineg Any update on the scooter? Did you try checking or charging the battery directly in case the problem is at the connector?
@ilovecincinnati It lives! The whole tale is over here:
https://meh.com/forum/topics/project-irk-scooter
Well, Meh definitely lived up to the promise of mediocrity with this IRK!
Contents include:
… and one kit of “liquid silver” paint/varnish/confusion.
I’m both perplexed and a bit regretful. Nice work, Meh!
IRK came today
The light is cool and we can certainly use another food storage dish, we like the glass ones. I tried the display cleaner and it works great! Not sure that we will use the table mount phone holder, but all in all, this was a nice IRK.
Another thrilling IRK!
Mobile phone lens kit!
Bluetooth speaker!
Kathy Ireland sheet set!
Nieman Marcus belt!
IRK bag!
Thanks, Meh!
@mtbm33 Is that the infamous Black bag? Did you check the pockets??
@punkynpye I did not check the pocket, but it’s blue. How have I missed this alleged pocket stuffing? I have several black bags that I’ve never checked.
@mtbm33 @punkynpye
Yes, alleged IS the key word!! I’m really curious IF we’ll know for sure, guess i’ll hope to be lucky/quick enough to find out for myself!! Fingers crossed!
@Lynnerizer @punkynpye nothing stuffed in my blue bag pockets. Maybe next time!
Pink Clawz - size C13/J1 (wtf does that mean?)
Mosquito light - so they can read in the dark
Anakin Skywalker figurine
Trackr pixel - wondered if these were worth using…it’s PURPLE so guess that answers my question!!!
Queen size linen duvet cover - this is very nice looking
But NO BAG
Yeah yeah. Contact CS. But I got some good stuff and don’t want to complain about a missing bag…if I could guarantee getting the new green bag I probably would. That one is awesome!
POPSOCKETS! SPROCKETS! DAVY CROCKETT! AWESOME!
@j2 send a support request about the bag.
@j2 C is child. J is Junior Adult…in regular shoes. Now, in Clawz… I’m not sure…
@j2 @Kidsandliz
And request a green one with green in the pocket! CS is VERY acommadating!!
My wife found a “strange” box on the porch this afternoon and called me worried. After telling her about the surprises in the pockets of some IRK bags, her fears allayed and the box was ripped open. Alas, no added surprise here. And no picture of all the items, just of the cutie who snagged herself a new purse.
little one
-Green IRK bag (yesss!)
-Hands-free soap dispenser
-A bottle of pink lemonade leave-in conditioner
-One curtain panel; Hudson Hill Morelle Grey (anyone have/need a match?)
-A purple handbag claimed by the
@swhall05 Is that a drug sniffing dog? Are you sure there are no surprises?
@swhall05 Aww…so cute! She looks very pleased!
@swhall05
She’s adorable!! X2!!
Pretty lean IRK this time - probably the smallest one I’ve received to date. Certainly lives up to its name!
1 x blue IRK bag (which apparently has pockets - I never knew)
1 x 2 pack of Monster ScreenClean display cleaner
1 x TrackR (pink)
1 x “Science Solutions” Liquid Silver Polishing and Plating Solution
@eric1024 I got the same plus green claws.
@cbooboo2 @eric1024
So sorry!
Green IRK bag - with nothing in the pockets (:
1x Disney Infinity Star Wars Anakin Skywalker figure in box
2 pack of Monster Screen Cleaner
1 TrackR Pixel
2 pack of Dead Sea exfoliating sponges
Now that I have almost every color or IRK bags - anybody want some?
@njmartin
IF you’re serious, I would LOVE one!!
@Lynnerizer - what color(s) are you interested in - black, navy, orange, red, green or white?
@punkynpye
What a beautiful pup, love his colors/markings!!
POPSOCKETS! SPA KITS! POLLY POCKETS! AWESOME!
@mediocrebot Begone foul demon! Nobody spoke your name.
@blaineg @mediocrebot The alt text of the image is “Awesome”
MEALS! DEALS! EELS! AWESOME!
Paprika was very interested in the box! She thinks she’s a cat. So this is my haul:
Super soft jam jam bottoms for the Grandson.
Screen cleaner.
Small glass container.
Blue meh bag with no monies.
And a neck firmer.
I would’ve been delighted with just the bag, so everything else is just a bonus!
Thanks, meh, you made my day!!
@punkynpye congrats! I think you owe us a reveal on the Mehrican Exchange thread as well!
It’s here! It’s here! The FedEx guy decided to walk through the snow to use the wrong door instead of walking up the clean driveway to use the clean entry, but whatever, your choice…
Nothing exciting, but the kid is happy with Anakin and the clawz, and I’m happy to finally have a bug zapper! The clock is neat, I never would have picked wood grain myself. The bag alone is worth $5 to me, so everything else is gravy.
I got some super nice slippers, a bidet (unused) and a pixel tracker.
And a twelve foot inflatable Santa!
His fan is intermittent but I think it’s a wire problem I can fix.
THANKS MEH!
@sammydog01 do the slippers fit?
@tinamarie1974 Not me but they should fit my daughter. Size 8. They didn’t even send me some weird crappy size. It was a really nice surprise.
@sammydog01 Bidets have been a really appreciated gift this past year… I’ve been slowly converting friends and family to wash their stanks.
@sammydog01 I’m so jealous of the Christmas inflatables! Good for you!
Got 2 irks, I “won” one and the other was a consolation for the pop socket thingy.
Irk #1: blue irk bag, pink claws (for my sis), screen cleaner 2 pack, pixel tracker, oil diffuser with 20 oils (all parts accounted for, works)
Irk #2: green irk bag, small metal trash can, travel wine tumbler, pixel tracker, returned umbrella (seems difficult to close but works), mosquito lamp (great if it works, mosquitos and no-see-ums have been brutal this year)
(Pockets empty on both bags.)
I’ve forgotten how to post a picture here
@endi1276 turn your phone sideways before clicking anything. New icons will show up at the bottom of the text box. Use the moon over the mountain icon.
@RiotDemon thank you!
A very Meh IRK this time around, I may surprise my daughter with the Clawz.
1x Green IRK bag
1x TrackR pixel tag
1x Clawz (pink, women’s size 6)
1x Lens camera kit for smartphones. Do these actually do anything?
1x Bug Zapper
The highlight of the whole thing was the incomprehensible “features” of the bug lamp. I’m still laughing.
Here’s the text version if that’s hard to read.
Wow. A power grid, that protects mosquitoes, solves for ED, allows you to remove corpses, AFTER the mosquito, and a high-brightness bottom, to boot!
Not bad for $5.
@ACraigL whoa IRK-twins
Same exact box, J1 size pink claws though…
@ACraigL if you don’t want those pink clogs @Felton10’s daughter wants colors other than white in the size you got.
@ACraigL I also got this mosquito trap and had a good laugh at the directions. That said, it powers on and we have a mosquito problem in our bathroom of all places, so I’m very happy with getting it even if it does reference corpses.
@jcpseattle Let me know if it actually works. I’m skeptical it will do anything but light up.
@ACraigL I almost posted a pic of that info off my box, got a good laugh too!
@ACraigL @Davidtrippy The oversized boxes are so heart breaking!
@ACraigL It works!! I’ve had the blue light on in my bathroom all day and now there are two bugs in it. Which confirms that my bathroom is grosser than I had realized.

White Claws size 6 women’s (donate)
13” MacBook Pro case (donate)
Morgan & Paige Earrings (Wife)
Box of TrackR tags (Donate)
Wife if happy so I’m happy with the IRK.
That doll is awesome
EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!
I got a curling rod, a wireless beanie, an awesome Santa decoration and a set of three collapsible lanterns. The absolute best IRK I’ve received.
POPSOCKETS! SPROCKETS! DAVY CROCKETT! AWESOME!
IRK of your dreams…er nightmares in stereo
Navy IRK bag - somebody in family always can use another one.
2 Pop Sonic brush heads - I’ll have to hunt to find a user for these, but I will persist.
Adrienne Vittadini Charging Wallet - DIL will likely nab this.
Anakin Skywalker Light FX figure - He needs to find a good home. I’m thinking Craigslist, but a kid-type low price. If a kid shows up, I’ll just give it to him/her.
Silver polisher plater kit - same as IRK bag above.
An interesting odd little assortment. Fun. Have to admit, I was hoping for Clawz. Maybe next time.
@romellex
I want the toothbrush heads, I just got the toothbrush kit in my irk.
@Star2236 I’m going to check with my family 1st for a user of the toothbrush heads. Meanwhile, I’m curious as to whether your IRK otherwise resembles mine?
@romellex
This is what I got in my irk
@Star2236 If you “whisper” your mailing address, I’ll get the toothbrush heads off to you.
Looks like I got a really nice curtain… but only one panel
Some screen cleaner
Anakin Skywalker Infinity figure
TrackR pixel tile
Returned Qi charger
Overall no complaints from me!
@show_the_maw This guy had the same problem. Is yours the same color?

@sammydog01 looks to be different. I’m not sure how to upload an image but see if this works. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0r18pMWQLxTUnb1koVH85eUOQ
I gotta figure out how to upload photos to here but in the meantime, here’s my IRK goodies.
1 box delivered to my door, without a knock, on a Sunday afternoon. Ugh. Glad my IRK wasn’t stolen by a porch pirates. Boy would THEY be confused!
Good job, Meh! No regret here.
Thanks to the poster who shared how to upload photos in the comments above!
I’m a newbie here…kind of…how to I get an IRK box? I want cool stuff…like those monster feet
@sweetjoey it takes mad skillz. And not being a bot.
@sweetjoey I have a pair of the pink monster feet, aka Claws you mentioned that I am willing to send you if @Felton10 is sure I cannot send them their way. They are a size M4/W6 though…if they fit I would have kept them to embarrass my kids! Lol.
@cbilyak @sweetjoey Thanks they are the right size, but not the right color-so pass them along to anyone else who wants them.
Why does SmartPost hate me? I’m in Augusta, GA. All of my SmartPost packages like taking a nationwide tour before finally arriving.
@psbales Louis DeJoy is smiling.
@psbales I know the feeling! I’m in Washington state and my most recent package has taken an extended vacation across the country
@OldCatLady @psbales Only if he bends over and moons you.
@benj That’s even more ridiculous than mine! At least my package stayed within a few hundred miles. Mine finally broke free from NC and has been hanging around the Atlanta suburbs since yesterday. Might wander over to Augusta today?
@psbales I wish I could travel willy nilly like that considering the situation we’re in! The good news is that after sitting in New Jersey for 4 days, it looks like my Meh treasure is back on the road, and is now in Indiana!
And my saga ends. Finally arrived today; not even worth a picture. Green IRK bag (finishes out the collection); size 7 pink Clawz, a Trackr, and the hilariously mistranslated mini portable bug zapper.
One of my regrettiest IRKs.
Can’t wait ‘til next time!!
Does anyone know how frequently meh does Meh-rathons? Is it once a month? Once every quarter?
@nonlion
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@nonlion
Your guess is as good as mine.
@nonlion Checking my history of IRK’s which has now been 11 consecutive (I know, bad luck!
) they seem to show up at least once a month although there were 2 of them last November.
@IndifferentDude
Oh wow! That’s awesome you keep track of those. Thanks for the helpful reply
PANS! GLANDS! CRAYONS! AWESOME!
@nonlion Just when you want and think you are going to get a good night’s sleep, one pops up.
@nonlion I suspect they do them right before they have to do inventory. The more crap they move out of the warehouse, the less they have to count.
One of, if not the most Meh hauls ever! This one is just whoa! I knew it was forgettable when I picked it up. Weighed nothing…
This did not disappoint as regrettable. The cost of the postage was more than the contents.
1- IRK bag
1 - silver polish (open)
1 - 2-pack tooth brush heads (new)
1 - 2-pack screen cleaner (open)
1 - trackr pixel
Regrettable.
@Zott
If you don’t want the toothbrush heads I’ll take them.
@Star2236 Sadly, I must again point out the cost of postage.
@Zott
I’m so confused? Was this your irk? If so, you should definitely keep the toothbrush heads if you want them, I was just saying if your not gonna use them I’ll use them. I’ll send you money for shipping, it can’t cost more than a couple bucks.
Grab bags are for optimists.

Meh bag, silver polishing kit, purse, claws, screen cleaner kit… overall pretty Meh
