@Doooood@msayler@tweezak I love WOTE…but when I saw Rooooyals it made me think of this parody version by Key of Awesome (who actually are pretty awesome, lol!).
They also have a parody of WOTE’s Somebody That I Used to know….it’s really funny.
@astroglide@Doooood@msayler Lots of their old videos have some really funny antics. They are crazy talented and creative. If you are down for a good laugh, check this out.
Wonder what its duty cycle is.
Did some quick googling and couldn’t figure it out.
Only the fanciest priciest ones are made for constant operation.
Mine for example can only be run 6 minutes then needs a 25 min cooldown.
If not the thermal switch will pop in but it’s best to not rely on it.
Which is fine for me when I’m on top of stuff.
But when I wasn’t and now have a backlog to shred it gets a bit annoying.
Assuming it can do at least 110 pages at once. But after those are shredded, do I have to wait half an hour?
@Narwalt Some of the negative complaints repeatedly indicate there is no way it handles 9 sheets at a time (others don’t complain of that so who knows), some say only 3 so if that is an issue for you then you might want to consider that as well.
@Kidsandliz@Narwalt
I’m sure it balks at those credit card spams that are basically printed on card stock, unless you unfold and feed them one piece at a time.
@yakkoTDI@yugrudfooz
Those of us who pile up the stuff for a while, and then have shredding session to get rid of the pile. In my case, it’s because the shredder has a manual on-off switch.
@werehatrack@yakkoTDI@yugrudfooz
When I get that far behind I use it as an opportunity to burn back the weeds in the garden after the winter before I till it.
I don’t usually shred my disks. Keeps you from recycling the paper (or in my case using it as litter in the chicken coop) I find about 5-10 seconds in a microwave will create a very satisfying lightning storm that trashes the writable surface, then it’s in the trash.
@chienfou
The local recycling system doesn’t take shredded paper; too many cut fibers, so that it makes shitty new paper. It makes useful mulch, to an extent.
@chienfou@werehatrack While the local recycling center may not take shredded paper, check with your animal shelters. The one I volunteer at fills some of the litter boxes (others have “real” cat litter in them) with it and cats then want to sleep in there rather than use it as a litter box.
@chienfou@werehatrack where I used to live before they did not take it because of the hazard for employees handling it meaning the micro paper dust that is produced when shredding , then the sorters cannot handle the stuff, and finally it just creates a mess with the paper shreds getting stuck everywhere
@ironcheftoni
I had a strip shredder at work that would chew up one of those. That thing was dangerous. It was surrounded by warning tape on the floor, with a big sign saying
NO LOOSE CLOTHING
NO NECKTIES
NO OPEN JACKETS
DO NOT OPERATE UNLESS TRAINED
The key for the on-off switch was in a drawer in my desk.
@pkutz5700
Change the file extension to .pdf and any of the readers can open it just fine. Illustrator uses the .pdf file format now, despite the fact that it still appends its own file extension.
This must be an older model than the one @pooltoywolf listed below where the model number for the silver one meh is selling is different and walmart still sells it.
I know with this one you need to buy that stuff “paper” to put through the cutting knives to keep them “lubricated” to keep it from jamming. Animal shelter I volunteer at has that one.
@pmarin
Nine at a time, but the automatic feeder slot will hold a stack that corresponds to 110 pages of an arbitrary thickness, and supposedly it will take care of the task from that point. I have to wonder if the instructions are sufficiently explicit about removing staples manually when the sheet count is higher than nine, though. They say it handles staples…
@Kidsandliz@steeltoesenator
They say the 4PM (EDT) batch is VMP-only, and if they paused at 144 pieces, there can’t be too many more; us non-V mehmbers are probably SOL.
@Kidsandliz@steeltoesenator
And given that the total count ended up at 148, there were just four left. Sheesh, guys, doncha think that was shaving it a bit close there?
Wow who seen that coming I looked at them in the middle of the night on the toilet I was like ooo I’ll get one of these in the morning wake up and sold out you guys are seriously shreddin stuff
And according to the last image, the navy blue one either makes popcorn or doubles as a popcorn vault. Can I feed it a stick of butter and have it distribute that evenly? This would be a feature worthy of Meh all by itself!
@Telanis even if that’s the case, it seems pretty odd that they wouldn’t adjust the announced time of release for purchase to reflect the accurate time to visit the site, knowing that they’re basically asking everyone to come an hour early otherwise.
Wow…you had only five left and we had to wait a whole hour past your stated time to find that out. Way too many refresh clicks, practically wore my mouse out…
@thechinglish It’s a holdover from yesterday since meh didn’t “Spring Forward” so the new item for today won’t show 'til 1 AM. meh is worthless lately!!

@thechinglish The important number you need to know is if you have more than 4.5 gallons of paper or not.
Ooh, a purple paper pulverizer!
And we’ll never buy Roooooyals
@msayler I just watched the Walk Off The Earth cover of that on YouTube.

Who has this many things to shred?
@yugrudfooz
some questions are best left unanswered…
@chienfou @yugrudfooz well, there’s always the White House toilets…
@yugrudfooz Those of us who are too lazy to do it on a regular basis.

Mine gets turned into the grass clippings and chicken s*** and kitchen scraps and makes wonderful compost…
@chienfou You may be damaging yout microwave oven’s magnetron by doing that.

There were reasons.

Sorta like this?
@ironcheftoni @werehatrack It probably also needed to say, “No long hair or braids”.
$69
Nice…
Is it a coincidence that Meh sells a “micro-cut” device the day after yesterday’s razors?
Or was that a planned joke on us?
@phendrick
Most likely

Does it also shred mehrathons?
And you shred up my files
You give me trash
to carry out
You shred my disk
and fill my bin
no doubt
Is QVC a fair actual market price comparison? I don’t think so. Not a deal. Pass.
@MarkML QVC had it for $79: https://www.qvc.com/Royal-9-Sheet-Micro-Cut-Shredder-with-Drop-Bin-%26-110--Sheet-Auto-Feed.product.E233970.html
@MarkML @misobrilliant *for lavender only
Similar model on Amazon is $130, and I don’t see any auto-feed shredders cheaper.
/buy
@Telanis Sorry, this deal contains 6 unique items and I’m not sure which one you want. You can review how to pick one, or just try ordering from the checkout page.
@mediocrebot expected you to Henry Ford me here. Who doesn’t want black?
The silver one appears to be a slightly different model.
@PooltoyWolf
Good catch. In the ohoto, it’s marked SF910.
@PooltoyWolf @werehatrack
that one is here

@Kidsandliz @PooltoyWolf
I think I remember that stuff. Didn’t it come from those cursed devices called “printers” that the gods of IT sent to torment us for our alleged sins?
A shredder Haiku
One hundred and ten pages?
but really it’s nine
@pmarin

How does it handle teenage mutant ninja turtles?
@commonhero The bigger question is how it handles any teenager, not just the mutant ones.
That price?
/giphy nice
Nice
@jjacobs095 nice
And marked “Sold Out” at 144 units at 10:29AM EDT.
Hwell. I guess that shows us where we stand.
@werehatrack Well they shredded this deal then.
EDIT - actually they paused it until later today so not sold out.
@werehatrack and I went to bed intending to pick one up in the morning (I really could use a paper shredder) and woke up to this.
@steeltoesenator @werehatrack well you can still get one if you set an alarm to remember.
@steeltoesenator @werehatrack same here bro that’s funny I did the same thing

Sold out? Damnit! I actually needed this. That’s rare for Meh.
It’s after 4 P.M. where’s my buy button?
@jitc Maybe they did Spring back instead of Spring forward? Or they didn’t Spring at all?
@jitc They didn’t say which day.
@jitc Nobody’s in the office to move their clocks forward.
@n3uka fair. I’m just used to the implication of stating the time as meaning that day.
@jitc if it’s because someone didn’t automate the DST change, I will literally lol.
@jitc okay, since it instantly changed at five pm, I’m guessing someone didn’t set their clock forward…
@jitc at least I got one.
@jitc I don’t recall Meh ever doing an adjustment for DST. Expect tonight’s deal to become available at 1 AM
@Telanis even if that’s the case, it seems pretty odd that they wouldn’t adjust the announced time of release for purchase to reflect the accurate time to visit the site, knowing that they’re basically asking everyone to come an hour early otherwise.
So…any bets on the coupon code in the apology email?

I think someone forgot to set their clocks forward
I guess meh didn’t spring forward.
Oh we’re doing the DST dance again
F5 F5 F5
Is meh skipping DST? Can’t say that I blame ‘em.
Men doesn’t do day light saving?
I think meh got shredded by that shredder deal…
DST + Time zones= my brain bleeding.
Must be a 2fer tomorrow!
Meh must be proud that they sold out of the shredders is all I can figure.
Guess meh wants to have the same “change-over to a new day” as Woot! 1 AM from now on!!
FYI The meh button is a no go as well! We all revert back to zero when this show gets back on the road!
