@Barney Safe keeping huh... Like so safe they will never be seen again safe? Like so safe that if I tell you where I hid it I will have to kill you safe? LOL Likely you will leave behind a trail of purple footprints which will make it easier for @lichme to hunt you down and find you... just saying
I have two expected Friday. I'm on business travel, outside Chicago until then, so looking forward to returning home to meet my good fortune, courtesy of @hollboll and meh.
The mug from The Office, a Pogo backup battery that is guaranteed to be the size of a credit card, a roughly used Eclipse mp3 video recorder, a PRE-PROGRAMMED universal remote, an Adult Small Meh shirt (my obesity is my son's gain), and a handwritten note!
All for the low, low price of having to suck some bubbly off of a small fairy's legs.
@sohmageek So...you are feeling fucking awesome...because thats how i feel all the time.
Except for tomorrow, tonsillectomy and wisdom teeth removal double whammy of fuck you @studerc.
My solace? The fact i get one of my multiple prizes from @hollboll tomorrow. Hopefully its not a screw you @studerc prize. That would sure make a bad day worse!
@sohmageek Yea. My top 2 have fully emerged and were fine. Bottom two however are growing in sideways and are cracking other teeth as they slowly grind and push all my bottom terth closer together...apparently its a big deal.
@studerc Hope your surgeries go well. My favorite thing in the whole world when I got mine out was eating warm chocolate pudding. Let us know how it goes!
@hollboll appreciate the well wishes. Just got out of recovery. Now just chillin and harassing the nursing staff that assume i must be completely helpless!
@Foxborn I like to make vanilla pudding and sprinkle a few chocolate chips (ok a large handful) in the bottom of a bowl. Pour the pudding over them and eat warm. So much yum.
@Thumperchick informed me that THIS was the place I was supposed to post... so here: I GOT MY PIZZA RAT PRIZE! I wish I would have remembered to expect it. I would've saved it to open on Christmas. But instead, I assumed I ordered something and forgot that I ordered and opened it just in case. Thank you, meh. My daughter kept the pink binoculars. My son enjoyed tearing apart the pieces of the 3d cube puzzle. My hubby plugged in the USB man. There was also a little lifesavers collectible, an origami kit, mediocre socks and my favorite - a note from meh with custom doodles included. Thank you!!!
Just got my prize pack... I think I'm getting more, I'm not sure.... Maybe there's a Goat Prize in my future? Or others? I have no idea.... The sign said this was my prize for the February Kiss Video deal. This is what bathing in neoprene gets you...
-Mini Flask (I guess this will be good to keep the hotel liquor in) -Part of a Beer Bong (Just the funnel, which is perfect, because I needed a funnel for my Tiki Torches!) -Survival Knife -Black Meh t-shirt, 2XL -6.5 feet of LED Tape Rope
I just received a box full of useless stuff for a contest I didn't even know I won. I think somebody messed up somewhere but I'm not sending anything back.
@jaremelz, @Pavlov is gonna trade your precious and irreplaceable Tweety Bird light for a prize that he has not yet received and who knows, may never receive? Beware!
@Barney I know you were teasing . . . I'm leaning towards never (on the issue of a prize, but that's okay - I rib them in the forum but @hollboll knows the score via email from @MrsPavlov, or so I am told). We're taking off for Christmas to spend the holiday in warmer (although right now it feels like summer in KC) climes next week and I'll be in London and then Berlin all of January and I've got Fashion Week in NYC in February, I'll be lucky to see a prize by March. Meh.
@Foxborn I like to collect the bubble lights - they were always my favorite holiday decoration when I was young. My grandparents had the old style from the 1940's, and when I would visit them for Christmas every year I would lay and watch them as I would drift off to sleep (small house, big family, I slept on the floor - and never cared, I was closest to the kitchen and the home-made cinnamon rolls every morning, and quiet time alone with grandma).
@jaremelz Well, my grandparent's lights weren't that old (relatively) in the early 70's as I slept on the floor . . . I think my Aunt absconded with them when my grandmother passed, and then she passed away, and her family probably threw everything out.
@Pavlov Ours have just been running around the bottom of one of the many ornament crates for years on end due to the lack of a good place to put them. But they sure are are pretty.
Wow, @hollboll! Thank you!! It was like getting another Fuku. I'm doubly excited because my next package must be Harley, since you've already decided to go and accessorize it for me.
1x Chrome Motorcycle Cup Holder 1x Semi-Hard Magnetic Tank Bag 1x Ableplanet Linx Audio Gaming Headphones 1x Oriental Trading Company 3D Puzzle Cube
The bag retails for $70, but couldn't find it for sale anywhere. Oh, and there was a note at the bottom of the box:
So, a funny thing. I already got the prize for the Broseph contest -- the panasonic headphones that was for sale when that contest launched. So, I guess this is for either the "Unnecessarily Censored Gif" or "Pizza Rat". Perhaps I'll never know?
Chrome 47.0.2526.80 under Windows 10 Pro 64 bit and I get the same symbol also. The images are also broken for me in IE, Edge (God help us all with this shit browser), Firefox, Safari, Seamonkey and Opera.
@Pavlov Really, they were there. Really. There were two pictures, the first included a black case; the second one was a closeup of the note. Edit: And I just saw them flicker for a second or two. Time to go lie down and rest.
I can still see the pictures on my laptop, but they aren't showing up on my phone. I'm using Chrome 46.0.2490.86 on Windows 10. Just realized it needs to be updated, so I'm curious if I'll still be able to see them after the update.
Edited to add: Still showing up on Version 47.0.2526.80
@Pavlov that's correct. They've made it challenging to pull directly from the photos app. I continue to see them but I guess that's because I have access by default.
@ACraigL I did notice Google has been experiencing huge issues over the last few days, especially related to authentication. Many issues coincided with them getting slammed (and I mean clobbered) with the Star Wars cardboard promo and didn't clear until they changed some code on the entry page for that sale.
@sohmageek I'm listing both of mine on eBay - the Google Store units are apparently without the Verizon branding, so they're going for much more money in the secondary market. So I guess you still can pay for one (or two, or three - or all four).
@Pavlov I wonder how much they are going for... I guess I should check. $25. Wow. For cardboard. I was thinking $10. Meh. Something less to clutter the house! Awesome!
Yes the speakers only one was working like the box said. But guess what. The pair I purchased was the same way. Just opposite speakers. So score! I have a working pair. And a pair to rma to the manufacturer!
I got some prizes! (sorry for crappy pics) 1 x Leather vest (smells great) 1 x Drinking Terrible button 1 x Medium 1-year-of-meh-faces shirt 1 x Eclipse MP3/Video player (tested seems to work) 1 x Credit card sized power bank 1 x Monkey toy set (daughter loved, but sharp as shit when stepped on)
1 x Sound Blaster audio card and software 1 x Electric Salt 'n' Pepper grinders (look used) 1 x Stretch Kong keychain 1 x Bluetooth reciever/adapter
To the guy that waited and waited. The time has finally arrived. @studerc got a prize. In perhaps the most beat to fucking shit box I've ever seen and after spending about a week sitting in Lenexa, KS, my box is here.
The contents...well, I probably should have seen this coming. Color me, disappointed. The only solace, a PS: Happy Birthday written on the back.
The saga continues...
Bottle opener Neoprene Sleeves Meh Apron
At the least, thanks @hollboll for sending out a prize, I really do appreciate the thought and time you put into getting all this together!
Hey, @hollboll. Any ideas when the rest of the prizes are going to be sent out! I'd sure love to know when my next crushing disappointment is going to be!
@studerc I dunno - your wife might think you look cute in the apron. Just trying to find a bright side for you there, pal. You get my email? Sent it to the exchange address. And I told you Lenexa was the black-hole of FedEx for packages . . . they suck them in and crush them to bits and if they someday escape the event horizon and are delivered, you're damn lucky.
Okay, here's what I got for something I did concerning a TMBG video, that I didn't know I was suppose to get a prize for... But then again, I was once sent two speaker docks just for saying the word "bath"--and also sent a free sharpie for complaining about something I really didn't care about--and also sent a rolled up ball of used packaging tape for complaining about something I did care about--so nothing surprises me anymore concerning these cussers.
I have a second prize shipment due tomorrow, and a third still in pending status. Despite my assumption it was a label balk, @hollboll has yet to confirm #3 as real.
PizzaRat prize arrived! OMG I was laughing so hard. Thanks @hollboll and Meh for a fun pick-me-up during a very rainy afternoon.
The note (possibly the best part of the bunch):
The Goods:
Honestech Audio Recorder Bundle (more on this in a bit) Generic Thermos mug Clip light? For a baseball hat I guess Solo privacy screen case for an iPad Air that I don't own.
So, about that bundle... it's a shrink-wrapped package with two boxes inside. Flip it over and...
An honest-to-goodness portable cassette player. How ridiculous is that? I'm totally going to pull a Guardians of the Galaxy type strut to my old mix tapes from college.
A couple of days ago, I found a mysterious box from meh on the porch! The contents: 1 x Thunder Twisting Sheamus Action Figure 1 x mini quad copter with no camera 1 x Magic SoundBox that really, really works 1 x fancy Winnie the Poo figure sitting on a "wooden" block 1 x note from meh Apparently I got this prize for some contest where I photochopped @mehcus. (edit: probably this one) Thanks, meh!
@MEHcus Added music to cover up my wife talking in the background. She's always trying to talk and stuff while I record my dumb videos. "Hush, woman! I don't care if this is the 5th take! Just sit there and look pretty!" ;) Nah, but seriously though... Edit: My nearly 3 year old daughter thinks this guy is a "bad guy" and made him sit in jail. Good times.
Just like @medz, my prize came today as well. I was expecting a powerbank. Silly me.
A table tripod Cinderella Starlights (still need to test this) I Like Irk Shirt (men's large, nice!) Nerf-like dart gun Mach Speed Trio STEALTH PRO 7" Tablet
I got the Mach Speed Trio, where "mach speed" refers to how fast it freezes after I've found something to actually do on it. There was also the meat thermometer, the tripod bag, and the mushroom-shaped desk vacuum, which, surprisingly, was able to suck in a fingernail clipping.
In the huge, but very light box, I found: 1 x bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos (guaranteed fresh through June) 1 x stainless steel 8oz flask with a 7-pointed leaf on it (doesn’t smell used, so I think new) 1 x 32GB Monster USB/micro-USB 3.0 flash drive with some files on it
The flash drive was wrapped in its own little bubble wrap packaging, so for a moment, I was concerned they had sent me a banned substance of some kind.
Flash drive was named 420BLAZE and contained 420 copies of my winning GIF. I haven’t viewed them all, but they’re all the same file size, so if there is anything hidden, it was expertly done.
Showing hidden items, there seemed to also be a hidden item for each gif as well as 4 folders and a “trashes” file. The hidden folders seem to pertain to QuickTime, but I’m not sure what they’re for yet.
my 420 prize came in whilst i was in chicago for a few days. also in a huge, but very light box.
1 bag of Doritos, unopened 1L of Mountain Dew, unopened 1 32GB Monster USB/micro-USB 3.0 flash drive containing 420 copies of the file that won me the prize:
And I say again, "We have a winner!"
Glad it arrived safely! Thanks for hanging in there @purplepawprints! :)
Mine is sitting in Kansas, with a weight of 2Lbs and a reference number of ???!!!
@lichme I live in Kansas. I'll go pick it up for you, you know, just for safe keeping.
@Barney Safe keeping huh... Like so safe they will never be seen again safe? Like so safe that if I tell you where I hid it I will have to kill you safe? LOL Likely you will leave behind a trail of purple footprints which will make it easier for @lichme to hunt you down and find you... just saying
(@hollboll)
photos please!!
The USPS elf came overnight and gave me a prize!
I got a cupcake tin, a dog pedometer, a clock radio, and a pile of AA batteries. Thanks guys!
@sammydog01 i hope they didnt send you the batteries that leak.
Lucky prize winning people.
Its like she knows me.
@marklog
These are some pretty bitchin' prizes so far.
I have two expected Friday. I'm on business travel, outside Chicago until then, so looking forward to returning home to meet my good fortune, courtesy of @hollboll and meh.
The mug from The Office, a Pogo backup battery that is guaranteed to be the size of a credit card, a roughly used Eclipse mp3 video recorder, a PRE-PROGRAMMED universal remote, an Adult Small Meh shirt (my obesity is my son's gain), and a handwritten note!
All for the low, low price of having to suck some bubbly off of a small fairy's legs.
The Eclipse was seemingly returned by someone who REALLY likes country music and rodeos. And also, thanks, @hollboll!
@mikey huh... I won that one too...
@sohmageek She must be playing favorites. ;)
@mikey wow. After all I did for you @hollboll.... :'(. I'm starting to feel like @studerc
@sohmageek So...you are feeling fucking awesome...because thats how i feel all the time.
Except for tomorrow, tonsillectomy and wisdom teeth removal double whammy of fuck you @studerc.
My solace? The fact i get one of my multiple prizes from @hollboll tomorrow. Hopefully its not a screw you @studerc prize. That would sure make a bad day worse!
@studerc I'm sorry man. Hope it goes well. They've wanted me to get my 4 wisdom out. But I've resisted. :) only minor pain every now and then.
@sohmageek Yea. My top 2 have fully emerged and were fine. Bottom two however are growing in sideways and are cracking other teeth as they slowly grind and push all my bottom terth closer together...apparently its a big deal.
@studerc
@studerc Hope your surgeries go well. My favorite thing in the whole world when I got mine out was eating warm chocolate pudding. Let us know how it goes!
@hollboll appreciate the well wishes. Just got out of recovery. Now just chillin and harassing the nursing staff that assume i must be completely helpless!
@studerc glad to hear it went well. Were you crazy loopy when you woke up?
@hollboll Not really, everything went super smooth. Now im just waiting here staring at my phone waiting for them the release me.
@hollboll Warm Chocolate pudding on angel food cake is the best
@Foxborn omg that sounds delicious. Hey! @chaoscatapult! Pick up some pudding and angel food cake!
@studerc @chaoscatapult make sure's the kind you cook. It's so worth it
@Foxborn I like to make vanilla pudding and sprinkle a few chocolate chips (ok a large handful) in the bottom of a bowl. Pour the pudding over them and eat warm. So much yum.
@jaremelz I will have to try that
@studerc Hey... Just cause they were nice to you when you had surgery... doesn't mean they'll come home with you... ;)
Omg worth the almost year wait. The hover soccer ball is a big hit on my research lab floor.
And my 2 year old will LOVE the balls and truck. and maybe the water balloons in a few years!
@jml326 - And a Leak Frog!! (camouflaged in there with the balls)
@Thumperchick informed me that THIS was the place I was supposed to post... so here: I GOT MY PIZZA RAT PRIZE! I wish I would have remembered to expect it. I would've saved it to open on Christmas. But instead, I assumed I ordered something and forgot that I ordered and opened it just in case. Thank you, meh. My daughter kept the pink binoculars. My son enjoyed tearing apart the pieces of the 3d cube puzzle. My hubby plugged in the USB man. There was also a little lifesavers collectible, an origami kit, mediocre socks and my favorite - a note from meh with custom doodles included. Thank you!!!
No prizes here yet. :(
Just got my prize pack... I think I'm getting more, I'm not sure.... Maybe there's a Goat Prize in my future? Or others? I have no idea.... The sign said this was my prize for the February Kiss Video deal. This is what bathing in neoprene gets you...
-Mini Flask (I guess this will be good to keep the hotel liquor in)
-Part of a Beer Bong (Just the funnel, which is perfect, because I needed a funnel for my Tiki Torches!)
-Survival Knife
-Black Meh t-shirt, 2XL
-6.5 feet of LED Tape Rope
NICE!
It might be worth me mentioning that prizes are shipping out in batches. Not all of them have shipped, but we'll say the first wave has shipped.
@hollboll - I heard it was raining in Texas.
Wheres mine lol
@phatmass pics pics pics pics pics
@phatmass Agree w/ @thismyusername Picture or it didn't happen.
I received mine for the Show US Your Swag contest.
Thanks, meh.
@jaremelz BLUETOOTHS MODO HAS BEEN OPENED!
Cool Tweety bong!
@hallmike
@jaremelz If you want to trade Tweety, let me know!
@Pavlov My new precious, irreplaceable Tweety bubble nite-lite?
Sure!
@jaremelz, @Pavlov is gonna trade your precious and irreplaceable Tweety Bird light for a prize that he has not yet received and who knows, may never receive? Beware!
@jaremelz
Off to eBay I go on the hunt . . .
@Pavlov Aw, I'm sorry. I was just teasing. Come back!
@Barney I know you were teasing . . . I'm leaning towards never (on the issue of a prize, but that's okay - I rib them in the forum but @hollboll knows the score via email from @MrsPavlov, or so I am told). We're taking off for Christmas to spend the holiday in warmer (although right now it feels like summer in KC) climes next week and I'll be in London and then Berlin all of January and I've got Fashion Week in NYC in February, I'll be lucky to see a prize by March. Meh.
@Pavlov Had one arrived broken but usable, tossed after one year (I think the globe broke)
@Pavlov Don't worry, you'll get yours (one way or the other). :)
@Foxborn I like to collect the bubble lights - they were always my favorite holiday decoration when I was young. My grandparents had the old style from the 1940's, and when I would visit them for Christmas every year I would lay and watch them as I would drift off to sleep (small house, big family, I slept on the floor - and never cared, I was closest to the kitchen and the home-made cinnamon rolls every morning, and quiet time alone with grandma).
@Pavlov We have 2 strands of those bubble lights. Not too old, probably 20 years or a little more.
eBay has provided! Yay!
@Pavlov Well, now I guess I get the Tweety lite. Ha, my evil plan worked.
@Barney Had I known you wanted one I would have ordered two!
Aww, @Pavlov, you are such a sweetie, but I was just kidding. It seems that I should probably shut up, tonight, before I get myself in real trouble.
@jaremelz Well, my grandparent's lights weren't that old (relatively) in the early 70's as I slept on the floor . . . I think my Aunt absconded with them when my grandmother passed, and then she passed away, and her family probably threw everything out.
@Pavlov @barney Now what the hell am i supposed to do with this light?
@jaremelz Enjoy it! Bubble lights are wonderful!
And think of my 'whine' joke every time you walk by and see it . . .
:-P
@jaremelz You have my address :)
@Pavlov Ours have just been running around the bottom of one of the many ornament crates for years on end due to the lack of a good place to put them. But they sure are are pretty.
@Barney What's your offer? ;)
@jaremelz Can I knit you something?
@Barney
@Pavlov Then I hope you get one they are super cute
@Foxborn Ordered - on its way! Hope it gets here before I take off for the holidays!
Wow, @hollboll! Thank you!! It was like getting another Fuku. I'm doubly excited because my next package must be Harley, since you've already decided to go and accessorize it for me.
1x Chrome Motorcycle Cup Holder
1x Semi-Hard Magnetic Tank Bag
1x Ableplanet Linx Audio Gaming Headphones
1x Oriental Trading Company 3D Puzzle Cube
The bag retails for $70, but couldn't find it for sale anywhere. Oh, and there was a note at the bottom of the box:
So, a funny thing. I already got the prize for the Broseph contest -- the panasonic headphones that was for sale when that contest launched. So, I guess this is for either the "Unnecessarily Censored Gif" or "Pizza Rat". Perhaps I'll never know?
Thanks again! Made my day! :)
@ACraigL Your pictures aren't showing.
@ACraigL - Unless your pictures are supposed to be the international do not enter symbol.
@dashcloud @KDemo Strange, I see them. (I am using Chrome.)
Chrome 47.0.2526.80 under Windows 10 Pro 64 bit and I get the same symbol also. The images are also broken for me in IE, Edge (God help us all with this shit browser), Firefox, Safari, Seamonkey and Opera.
@Pavlov Windows 7 Chrome 47.0.2526.80 And I still see the pictures. Lovely beige carpet.
@barnabee What OS? And are you logged in to a Google account on your browser?
@Pavlov Now you are asking me hard questions. :) Not sure about the OS Home Premium I think. And yes I am logged into a Google account.
@barnabee Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or 10? I don't think the chip architecture is gonna matter (32 vs 64bit).
@Pavlov Windows 7 64 bit
@Pavlov this is getting freaky. The pics disappeared. What the heck is in my chocolate milk?
@Pavlov Really, they were there. Really. There were two pictures, the first included a black case; the second one was a closeup of the note.
Edit: And I just saw them flicker for a second or two. Time to go lie down and rest.
I can still see the pictures on my laptop, but they aren't showing up on my phone. I'm using Chrome 46.0.2490.86 on Windows 10. Just realized it needs to be updated, so I'm curious if I'll still be able to see them after the update.
Edited to add: Still showing up on Version 47.0.2526.80
@PurplePawprints Ahh, so I am not crazy. Well, not any more crazy than I usually am.
@barnabee Not crazy at all.
Well, this spurred much debate. Here they are on imgur.
@PurplePawprints Thanks for that.
@PurplePawprints Yep, those are the ones. But I wonder why I could no longer see them on my laptop? Weird.
@barnabee It is weird. @ACraigL, where are the original ones hosted?
@barnabee Never underestimate the power of chocolate milk.
@ACraigL Thanks!
@PurplePawprints I think the original upload was on the Google (googleusercontent.com).
@Pavlov that's correct. They've made it challenging to pull directly from the photos app. I continue to see them but I guess that's because I have access by default.
@ACraigL I did notice Google has been experiencing huge issues over the last few days, especially related to authentication. Many issues coincided with them getting slammed (and I mean clobbered) with the Star Wars cardboard promo and didn't clear until they changed some code on the entry page for that sale.
@Pavlov I was so pissed about that sale... I tried it kept hitting my cart, then BAM nothing... I would have paid for one of them.
@sohmageek I'm listing both of mine on eBay - the Google Store units are apparently without the Verizon branding, so they're going for much more money in the secondary market. So I guess you still can pay for one (or two, or three - or all four).
@Pavlov I wonder how much they are going for... I guess I should check. $25. Wow. For cardboard. I was thinking $10. Meh. Something less to clutter the house! Awesome!
@sohmageek I noted as high as $25 for the Verizon branded ones - the Google ones are selling higher still IIRC, without them having even shipped yet.
@hollboll seriously though, what's up with the motorcycle accessories??
@hollboll - You deserve kudos for making prizes happen against all odds. Great job, and much appreciation!
@KDemo Aw thanks! Hug received!
I've got 2...
1-
2-
Yes the speakers only one was working like the box said. But guess what. The pair I purchased was the same way. Just opposite speakers. So score! I have a working pair. And a pair to rma to the manufacturer!
@sohmageek Careful with those exclamation points. The note specified that you not get too excited.
@ACraigL true. But I did get some Christmas shopping done. It's like a mini fuku. Basically the same thing....
I got some prizes! (sorry for crappy pics)
1 x Leather vest (smells great)
1 x Drinking Terrible button
1 x Medium 1-year-of-meh-faces shirt
1 x Eclipse MP3/Video player (tested seems to work)
1 x Credit card sized power bank
1 x Monkey toy set (daughter loved, but sharp as shit when stepped on)
1 x Sound Blaster audio card and software
1 x Electric Salt 'n' Pepper grinders (look used)
1 x Stretch Kong keychain
1 x Bluetooth reciever/adapter
These prizes are great! Thanks, meh!
@medz Just noticed the note pics are out of order. Oopsies!
@medz FTFY
To the guy that waited and waited. The time has finally arrived. @studerc got a prize. In perhaps the most beat to fucking shit box I've ever seen and after spending about a week sitting in Lenexa, KS, my box is here.
The contents...well, I probably should have seen this coming. Color me, disappointed. The only solace, a PS: Happy Birthday written on the back.
The saga continues...
Bottle opener
Neoprene Sleeves
Meh Apron
At the least, thanks @hollboll for sending out a prize, I really do appreciate the thought and time you put into getting all this together!
@hollboll WHAT!?!!? YOU SENT @STUDERC A PRIZE???1?1?1??!?! WE NEED TO HAVE A TALK!!!!!!!!!!!!
@studerc birthday do was have another December birthday here?
@MEHcus "Prize"
@Foxborn December 1st was my birthday.
@studerc lucky duck, I'll trade you. mine is tomorrow 9 days before chirstmas and I have been gift jiped my whole life because of it
@studerc Congrats on your prize.
@studerc bwahahahahah gotta love meh.
@thismyusername...Love is one of those words I don't think I would use right now.
Hey, @hollboll. Any ideas when the rest of the prizes are going to be sent out! I'd sure love to know when my next crushing disappointment is going to be!
@studerc I dunno - your wife might think you look cute in the apron. Just trying to find a bright side for you there, pal. You get my email? Sent it to the exchange address. And I told you Lenexa was the black-hole of FedEx for packages . . . they suck them in and crush them to bits and if they someday escape the event horizon and are delivered, you're damn lucky.
@studerc you seem anxious to get more neoprene sleeves, not sure why.
@hollboll Never mind the support email I sent. I figured out what the other 3 packages were. (not meh prizes)
@phatmass @hollboll it's important to note that those Asian buttwipes are from the mass TPing of Mehquarters as orchestrated by @sohmageek.
@marklog butt wipes or toilet wipes. You may want to verify.
@phatmass That's logical. And ewwwwww!
@sohmageek both accomplish the same goal
I have a second prize shipment due tomorrow, and a third still in pending status. Despite my assumption it was a label balk, @hollboll has yet to confirm #3 as real.
@phatmass Just the facts, ma'am.
PizzaRat prize arrived! OMG I was laughing so hard. Thanks @hollboll and Meh for a fun pick-me-up during a very rainy afternoon.
The note (possibly the best part of the bunch):
The Goods:
Honestech Audio Recorder Bundle (more on this in a bit)
Generic Thermos mug
Clip light? For a baseball hat I guess
Solo privacy screen case for an iPad Air that I don't own.
So, about that bundle... it's a shrink-wrapped package with two boxes inside. Flip it over and...
An honest-to-goodness portable cassette player. How ridiculous is that? I'm totally going to pull a Guardians of the Galaxy type strut to my old mix tapes from college.
Thanks guys! You know it's More than a feelin'...
@ACraigL it even has Mega Bass!
A couple of days ago, I found a mysterious box from meh on the porch! The contents:
1 x Thunder Twisting Sheamus Action Figure
1 x mini quad copter with no camera
1 x Magic SoundBox that really, really works
1 x fancy Winnie the Poo figure sitting on a "wooden" block
1 x note from meh
Apparently I got this prize for some contest where I photochopped @mehcus. (edit: probably this one)
Thanks, meh!
@medz nice background music
@MEHcus Added music to cover up my wife talking in the background. She's always trying to talk and stuff while I record my dumb videos. "Hush, woman! I don't care if this is the 5th take! Just sit there and look pretty!" ;) Nah, but seriously though...
Edit: My nearly 3 year old daughter thinks this guy is a "bad guy" and made him sit in jail. Good times.
@medz yup that's exactly what it's for! Glad it made it safely. :)
Just like @medz, my prize came today as well. I was expecting a powerbank. Silly me.
A table tripod
Cinderella Starlights (still need to test this)
I Like Irk Shirt (men's large, nice!)
Nerf-like dart gun
Mach Speed Trio STEALTH PRO 7" Tablet
2.5 stars on Amazon!
Samantha, in particular, seems to hate it:
Seems to work OK for me. Xtreme, even. Thanks for the treat meh!
I got the Mach Speed Trio, where "mach speed" refers to how fast it freezes after I've found something to actually do on it. There was also the meat thermometer, the tripod bag, and the mushroom-shaped desk vacuum, which, surprisingly, was able to suck in a fingernail clipping.
I got my prize for the 420 Contest! (https://meh.com/forum/topics/420-contest)
In the huge, but very light box, I found:
1 x bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos (guaranteed fresh through June)
1 x stainless steel 8oz flask with a 7-pointed leaf on it (doesn’t smell used, so I think new)
1 x 32GB Monster USB/micro-USB 3.0 flash drive with some files on it
The flash drive was wrapped in its own little bubble wrap packaging, so for a moment, I was concerned they had sent me a banned substance of some kind.
Flash drive was named 420BLAZE and contained 420 copies of my winning GIF. I haven’t viewed them all, but they’re all the same file size, so if there is anything hidden, it was expertly done.
Showing hidden items, there seemed to also be a hidden item for each gif as well as 4 folders and a “trashes” file. The hidden folders seem to pertain to QuickTime, but I’m not sure what they’re for yet.
Great prize! Thanks, meh.
