My dearest Meh,
14My dearest Meh,
I hope this missive finds you well as I have become ever so fearful for your well being. I am a long time fan of your site though you won't find my funds in your accounts as I have never made a purchase from your concern. No, I come for the videos. Day after day, week after week I come back in the hopes of seeing my favorites like Hyram, the Singin' Cowboy or Donnie Dempster. I know this comes at a risk. I know that you have honed and mastered the psychological skills of sales. I know that if I ever display anything less than an iron will I will fall prey and come to own various refurbished vacuum cleaners and obsolete iPod docks. However, this morning when I made my daily peruse I noticed you had posted a video I had seen before. And it was a video from eleven months ago no less! Imagine my surprise! I was so overcome with concern that I was moved to create an account in order to inquire of your well being. I just know that you have taken ill or, perish the thought, something dreadful has happened. There just could be no other explanation, no other reason for your lapse, unless...unless this was a ploy, a trick, flimflam. A ruse designed to get me to create an account. Have I succumb? By creating an account have I taken that first step over the edge of the sarlacc pit? I'm still alive but am I fated to slide slowly downward until I'm digested over thousands of year? Regardless, I hope you're well and see your way to producing more videos.
Faithfully,
PWG

TL;DR: Wordsmithy lurker wants new videos.
@ACraigL I knew I should have looked for a TL;DR first.
@ACraigL Thanks! got bored halfway through and moved to the bottom in hopes of an quick and painless release. (What have I become!?!)
Welcome aboard.
Also it should be noted they are still claiming "daily video's"....I am not sure what I think of this obvious subterfuge and attempt to trick me into thinking thoughts I wouldn't normally think of thinking.
@tightwad many restaurants have a "daily special" that's not unique every day, forever and ever, so there's some precedent for the recycled vids. Have you considered that maybe it bothers you more than it should?
Ha! Hyram is the bait. You're a mehtizen now. They won.
An explanation was given about a week or so ago, before this started. I'm not able to look for it right now. Will post link if someone else doesn't before I get a round tuit. :)
@YahSah15 - I think it was around their birthday in July.

I don't know who you should blame - it happened on @starblind s watch, but really @sohmageek should be blamed going forward
@MrGlass I'm sorry, Meh made a change and I had no power over it... I wish I could have made videos for them... They never contacted me about my idea... But It may be for the better... Could you imagine me doing a video review of this item?
It may have involved a skit about a rape whistle. Mostly how I don't think a whistle will prevent rape and trying to figure out the history of "rape whistle" and why rape gun, or rape tazer didn't catch on, but whistle did. I take the whole subject very seriously, it's not a laughing matter, the whistle part on the other hand... is the brunt of many jokes. as seen below:
@pwg I can't make videos appear on a daily basis, but I can point you to a cache of Meh videos, including some you likely have not seen before unless you've been here since the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/user/mediocrelabs/videos
@dashcloud ...and down the rabbit hole I go. I have a feeling I need to pack a lunch because I'll be there all day.
