Pre-apology to meh for late birthday gift
25Two years ago I had a good idea of a reasonably funny thing to make and send to meh headquarters. Last year I bought the necessary materials to make it, and got more than half-way through before I realized I’d have to figure something out. I apparently didn’t want to figure anything out, and the thing remains unfinished today. I have found… part… of it, and hope to find the rest and figure out some kind of finish this week. Then I will send it to you, and you’ll all be like, “I don’t know that this is believable as a multi-year project.” This is my plan, anyway, since I’m probably moving sometime soon-ish and don’t want to pack and move a half-finished project from over a year ago, and then store it until next July. Although that does feel very in-character for me.
Anyway, sorry for the delay. You’ll be, I don’t know, not pleased or moved with my gift, but more… accepting, I hope? Also: is the right address to send it to the return address on my meh packages?

I was told that CS was still working from home a couple of weeks ago. So Meh gets a raincheck from me. Let me know when you’re back in the office guys. I’ll send something boring.
Oh your moving alright so am I if I buy any more unbelievable shit that won’t sell nor fit into any crevis of the garage, spare room, or even the dining room table. A no-no yet there shit sits.
You can just blame the delay on Pitney Bowes.
@mediocrebot I work for Pitney Bowes as their CMSAO
Chief Move Stuff Around Officer.
Sorry, I didn’t realise you guys wanted to receive your packages… I will send the guys in the warehouses a letter to let them know to deliver the packages as soon as I can find some stamps.
@mehcuda67 Crap, I could have said I mailed it last year.
@mossygreen You still can. I’m sure none of the staff have read this thread.
@mehcuda67 That’s an excellent point.
@mediocrebot @OnionSoup I feel like you missed an opportunity here to defer blame to Dejoy of the USPS. Just because you’re a scapegoat doesn’t mean you can’t point fingers.
…Hooves.
Someday, there’ll be enough former scapegoats that they’ll cover all the terrain the eye can see

@mehcuda67 We will definitely accept that answer
@mehcuda67 @mossygreen
Don’t worry. I still haven’t sent back the SASE birthday card from the first (or is that second?) birthday.
@narfcake same. I know it’s around here somewhere.
I totally know how that goes, but when you finish, it’s awesome!
VAN GOGH! MANGO! TANGO! AWESOME!
Wait! You mean the money I’ve been donating to you each month isn’t enough for you to buy yourself something really meh? Oh, I feel insulted.
I took three or four years to get them a birthday present. It was totally worth it. I think the procrastination gave it a little extra flavor, tbh.
@djslack
What, a well-aged cheese?
Or better, a nice bottle of wine?
@djslack it really was an awesome present.
POPSOCKETS! ROAD ROCKETS! SONNY CROCKETT! AWESOME!
@Thumperchick thank you. It was fun to make and give, and that was a really fun day.
I also didn’t realize this was a necro thread lol. Wonder how many of the apologies for unsent gifts are still outstanding?
How would one go about addressing a birthday package to meh, and when would be the idea time to send it?
