Rando Meh Worker: “Hey, boss. Do you think this Cyber Monday thing will be confusing to anyone? I mean, I would hate for somebody to spend $100 thinking they’ll get $50 refunded, but then they don’t.”
Meh boss: “Fuck 'em. We gotta find some way to sling this QVC shit. Got me? Alright. Say hello to your mother for me.”

@medz I like you, I really do. But it seems like every time you post nowadays you are bitching complaining about something around here.

It’s getting old. Hell, I’m getting old. I don’t think the two mix well together.

@barnabee sorry you feel that way. I just need to move on, find a new hobby.

@barnabee @medz Go look at the irk link at Sidedeal. I’m sure you’ll argue that Meh doesn’t say to visit there but they were very specific.

@barnabee @medz

@medz Maybe a lot of us need a new hobby.

@barnabee @medz I should go pull out my knitting.

@sammydog01 I guess it was too much to ask to put those details on the mehrathon info too…you know, since that is where it tells people to spend $100 to get $50 refunded.

@medz What happened to your new hobby? I recommend knitting.

@Kyeh If true, that’s how it should read then. It doesn’t. Just says you’ll be refunded 50 bucks.

@Kyeh

Possibly, we’re confused because it’s all unclear to some of us (in the fine details).

Or, possibly, we just enjoy being confused.

Hmmm.

@medz They need to hire you to write for them.

@f00l I dunno - I guess I didn’t delve into it that deeply, because it seemed pretty clear to me; I guess I wasn’t thinking outside the box or whatever! (Outside the Irk bag??)

@Kyeh @medz

Meh/Mercatalyst does need to hire me … and they need to pay my astronomical and fantastic rates per word.

I promise much obnoxious verbosity, nauseating “grammar”, and so many wasted/pointless dangling participles or other writerly faux-pas!
And so many other alliterate treats!

I promise to br completely-outerspace-wankers^ regarding any important or critical point needing to be communicated.

^(My confirmed speciality)

/giphy “word salad”

@f00l @medz Per word - they’ll need to sell a LOT of $50 Irks to afford you! Although you’ve been pretty silent recently.

@Kyeh @medz

I can talk when I get greedy.

/giphy greed

@Thumperchick
Doesn’t say no purchase necessary.

@Thumperchick were is the official terms and conditions?

@medz the IRK is $50. We’ll refund your purchase if you spend the qualifying amount on Meh. There’s no contest or gamification at all.

@snapster FTFY

BAD NEWS: There are no IRKs in this Meh-rathon.
GOOD NEWS: We’re selling an IRK as the daily deal over on SideDeal.
BAD NEWS: It costs $50.
GOOD NEWS: If you spend $99.99 (or more) on stuff in this Meh-ration, you’ll be refunded the cost of the $50 IRK. In other words, you get your IRK for free if you buy a bunch of stuff here.

@medz @snapster

If I pretend to buy a $50 IRK, and I pretend to spend $100+ at a Meh-Sidedeal-“whatever site that’s Mercatalyst-ish” today …

[Or, if I pretendedly spend according to whatever the refunded-IRK-purchase-cost offer is …

(I’m so far today way too lazy to grok the offer)]
…

Will Meh then pretend to refund me the pretend cost of the pretendedly purchased IRK?

I’m totally game^ for this if Meh will play along.
^(Pretendedly)

@AttyVette that is an entirely reasonable position to take. I missed out on the qualifier I intended to go back and buy:

@AttyVette @snapster Don’t you have an inside guy that will send you one?

@sammydog01 @snapster no —sorry I have no one on the inside ( or outside for that matter) either at meh or elsewhere . No one knows me there and I wouldn’t expect them too. I rarely come over to meh or woot either, as quite frankly, my life is too stressed to dabble in any “fun” right now ( if you call trying to snag Irks or BOC’s fun ).

@joshifer92 No because they are not for sale on meh.com
