@lichme Ok,I’ll bite! “Put it my hand!!” That’s what my old boss, Rooster use to say.l would put something in his hand, though not my own snake, but another one.
@mistamoose Well, often the journey is more spectacular than the destination. I could drone on and on about the disappointment, but that just wouldn’t be punny enough for this site…;)
So, have a great day, and see ya all tomorrow for speaker dock saturday.
@awk@djslack the point being that I don’t have time or ambition enough to play with the ones I already have so I’m not going to buy another one to add to the pile. I’m just waiting for some kid’s birthday or something so I can gift them. Suppose I’m too old to play with this kind of toy.
@djslack I did open one up and immediately broke the props. I then bought some bumpers (and a huge bag of replacement props) and haven’t broken any props since. However, it didn’t seem to fly right.
My brother has a large collection of professional copters and he came to visit and I asked him to fly it. He had no problem with it and was doing tricks such as flips. I then realized that it’s not my thing and I’ll leave it up to the kids and professionals.
Edit: Oh God, after looking at the closeup of my image, I discovered I need to dust more often.
@cengland0 I ninja deleted on you because I felt like my post was nagging. I can appreciate that it’s not everybody’s thing. It’s just amazing to me to see something go from experimental concept, to product costing thousands, to a tiny thing you can get from China for ten bucks in such a short timespan, and that that cheap tiny little thing actually works and is fun.
P.S. I think needing to dust more often is a normal human condition.
Well, I haven’t bought anything from meh in months, and I don’t have any toy drones that look like this one, so here goes nothing (hopefully my credit card hasn’t expired).
@cengland0 I just GIS’ed her name and in the middle of the array of images of her in underwear (and less), is this guy peering out of the results at me:
Apparently, his name is Rick Giolito, and the link was to his Twitter saying “Love my niece Lisbetta. So pretty in this pic. RT Elisabeth Giolito - Hautelook - Zobha” [pic of EG in a sports bra and some sort of pants]
I think they already crashed the one in the first image. Where are the support brackets for the motor in the bottom right? Probably broke off in that accident.
@erick1958 its says zero percent of the reviews are reliable? Zero? Even the mediocre ones? Does verified purchase mean nothing? I have checked fake spot before and now I’m skeptical of them.
@cranky1950 Yea like that shaver that started biting me the 2nd time i used the damned thing. I thought i had a deal; i did, just a Bad deal, though!! I got cranky, too, after about the 5th bite!! Took more meds, though!!
I hate effin drones like this but !!! I’m buying it as good luck for another Meh anniversary well done team Meh. i read the reviews almost every other person had a battery issue they are saying it overheats and diminishes if you charge it more then 90 mins the drone won’t fly…
When you shop MEH you already have no standards. Go back and look at the contract. It’s clearly stated in micro print located on the edge of the paper.
Luke may have been stuck on a planet until he joined the Rebel Alliance but that doesn’t mean he lacked flying experience. He used to bullseye womp rats in his T-16 back home. And since the T-16 was made by Incom, the same company that made the T-65 X-Wing, it doesn’t seem too much of a stretch that he would be a decent pilot.
Trivia: Incom also made the Cloud City station from ESB.
@hobbie Awesome, just spent two hour at work on the Star Wars wikia reading about the T-16 and Incom. Which turned into me reading about Z-95 and every other ship Incom or FreiTek had their hands in.
The lady getting drone buzzed in the first video is an old friend of mine (haven’t talked to her in a couple of years though, due to benign neglect). Now I need to call her to let her know she’s famous. Oh yeah, Happy Meh-day!
Maybe I’ve been spoiled by the Parrot drones I’ve bought recently, but this is really disappointing. You have to pry the battery out to charge it; the controller is enormous with pointless fake buttons, and, oh yeah, it doesn’t fly very well. Will immediately veer off and smash into a wall, paying very little attention to control inputs. The charger cord doesn’t see to have any sort of indicator light. On the plus side, the propeller shields do seem to work, and it keeps gamely trying to fly, even when it’s wedging itself behind a bookshelf or under the fridge.
Five years ago, this might have been an acceptable drone, but in 2017, it’s a regrettable waste of money.
I just tried to order this for my 4 yr old nephew and I could not find it. In the time it took me to get a prepaid card and come right home to order it, it was gone! Did not say sold out or anything,it was just gone could you please help me? I was on the morning save site placing orders and tried everything with no luck My nephew really wants this so let me know if it is available so I can order it,thank you very much!
@dianedoherty the deals on meh.com are only for one day. This was only for sale on July 8th. I didn’t see it on morningsave.com, so either it already sold out, or they are holding back for another sale on meh in the future.

Drone it
I think I reached this site by mistake. I was looking for www.pamperedbutts.net
@huja that website is available
/giphy pampered butts
@awk Redonkulous.
/giphy brown chicken brown cow
I think we’re droned out today… maybe tomorrow we can be heard
Hahahaha
“For those of you who thought today’s product might be a Fuko, you’ll have to wait…” Totally expected it today.
@mistamoose I totally expect it every day! Which probably explains my demeanor.
@mistamoose how long should we wait?
@mistamoose Well, often the journey is more spectacular than the destination. I could drone on and on about the disappointment, but that just wouldn’t be punny enough for this site…;)
So, have a great day, and see ya all tomorrow for speaker dock saturday.
@beachhead Why ruin the surprise? I love me some speaker docks!
@mistamoose Why should it have been today?
@sjk3 meh anniversary.
@mistamoose Probably don’t want to pay overtime to fix the servers.
Well that was anticlimactic…
@cinoclav That’s what she said
@lichme Sometimes you have to fend for yourself.
I still have 4 of those micro drones in the box doing nothing.
@cengland0 But this is bigger than those. Maybe they need a leader in order to become productive.
@cengland0 Well, to be fair, the batteries are hard at work slowly deteriorating.
@cengland0 Schrödinger’s drones

@cengland0 Just hover a drone over it for a while.
As much as I want a drone, this one’s a bit spendy for me. Not spendy relative to many drones, but too much for me at this time. So close.
Where’s my fuku? Wait for what?
Well, I haven’t bought anything from meh in months, and I don’t have any toy drones that look like this one, so here goes nothing (hopefully my credit card hasn’t expired).

@awk she doesn’t look happy about your purchase.
@mediocrebot Don’t judge, Girl Who Looks Like My Crazy Ex.
@awk That girl is definitely not making things limp.
@awk How did s/he (it?) know what your ex looks like? (U B spied on by one of those bluetooth speaker docks?)
@cinoclav Stalker Level: Expert
I think her name is Elisabeth Giolito
https://br.pinterest.com/pin/7740630589632617
@cengland0 It is. https://www.instagram.com/lisbettaa/?hl=en
Also, there are nudes out there. Not that I looked or anything.
@cengland0 I just GIS’ed her name and in the middle of the array of images of her in underwear (and less), is this guy peering out of the results at me:

I felt vaguely creeped-out.
At first I thought this was a remote control fidget spinner.
@heartny There’s fidget spinner apps, which is close enough.
@awk Oh, I’ll have to check this out. Thanks for the heads-up. I guess there is an app for everything
You know what this would be good for? Filming a daily video that’s not from 2014.

@cengland0 Hidden under the prop.
@cengland0 uhm…
@sammydog01 Okay, that’s plausible. I like my explanation better but yours is probably more accurate.
@cengland0 you should win a prize!
Buying 2 for my nephews!
The 60 minute charge time with only 6-8 min of flight is a no go for me.
@rearly So buy three.
@rearly That’s pretty much standard for consumer level copters.
@rearly It usually takes around 60 minutes to fully charge these generic LiPo’s … they safely charge at a current equal to the capacity, for one hour.

Hmmm…3 nephews, but only enough money for 2. Just buy 1 and let them fight it out Thunder-drone style?
@goaliemelvin
/giphy battle royale
@sammydog01 Sell one nephew; have enough money for three drones. Can’t win. At least I tried.
@goaliemelvin \ No, buy two! One loser is more fun for your money!! A much better fight, to; two’s, too much!!
@tsm Gift of the Magi style?
Reviews are poor. Fakespot = F.
@erick1958 Fake bad reviews?
@erick1958 Alterenative Facts
@cranky1950 Face 2 Face the Fuckin Fake Facts, FatHeads!! i’m just sayin¿
@erick1958 its says zero percent of the reviews are reliable? Zero? Even the mediocre ones? Does verified purchase mean nothing? I have checked fake spot before and now I’m skeptical of them.
@katbyter I don’t know about this example but certainly Verified Purchase reviews can be fake.
@lichme No whammies, no whammies, no whammies… STOP!
It looks as if others are selling the same thing with different branding. (7" diagonal is about 5" x 5").
@craigthom I think that’s a different model that also has GPS stabilization.
@skyhawk85u I don’t see didn’t reference to GPS in the description.
Will Meh use these to deliver our next fuko?
(I probably still won’t be able to score one…)
@phendrick Only if you live within 6 minutes round trip from the warehouse and you don’t mind your fuko weighing less than an ounce.
@phendrick Depends if smartpost has become drone enabled.
Bought the last odysee drone they were selling on here a month or two ago. Total garbage.
@ColeSloth then it’s up to meh standards!!!Perfect fukuburro
@ColeSloth Maybe it was your expectations were too high.

@DanVanKrout Worse yet, get hooked on Schlock Mercenary. Check one comic in the 17 years of archives. Come up for air several hours later.
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/archives/
Book 10 or 11 is a good place to start. You can thank (or lynch) me later.
Careful if you bought one. Several reviewers on amazon say the batteries will overcharge if you let them. One person mentioned his got to 107 degrees.
The lady getting drone buzzed in the first video is an old friend of mine (haven’t talked to her in a couple of years though, due to benign neglect). Now I need to call her to let her know she’s famous. Oh yeah, Happy Meh-day!
