VD 2026 IRK Reveal
21Just right after I posted that my irk was on it’s way, I got the text that fedex had dropped something off somewhere in the vicinity of the door as my fedex person is apt to do.
Smallish Ladybird size box
locally sourced air that has been set free by Ladybird
Black and pink IRK bag. New color scheme for me.
Size small thermal set, already in the bag going to the homeless clothing donations
an Apple “Find my” whatever. Will be donated since I’m android person
Microfiber towel will keep for traveling
Pop Up house craft card thing set. Had to look this up. Any takers from crafty folks?

@ironcheftoni WOW! You got a live kitty in your IRK!?!?!?! He/she is gorgeous!
@cfg83 @ironcheftoni
Ladybird!
I
@cfg83 she claims all boxes that enter the house as hers
@cfg83 @ironcheftoni didn’t she claim the house is hers?
@Cerridwyn @cfg83 @ironcheftoni I would imagine she claims everything as hers, including us.
@Cerridwyn @cfg83 @Kidsandliz true, if she only had thumbs
@Cerridwyn @cfg83 @ironcheftoni If she had opposable thumbs likely you’d need to run for your life. “laughing”
@Cerridwyn @ironcheftoni @Kidsandliz You are in good paws with Ladybird.
@Cerridwyn @cfg83 @ironcheftoni @Kidsandliz I really need to find time to paint Ladybird.
@Cerridwyn @cfg83 @Kidsandliz @sillyheathen


@ironcheftoni
If you still have the pop-up house and are getting rid of it, I’ll take it my nieces and I do lots of crafts
@Star2236 you got it
Nice! Mine doesn’t arrive until Friday
Looks like @ironcheftoni beat me again on the reveal. First the meh exchange reveal and now the VD reveal. Apologies to @ironcheftoni for creating a second thread.
But how can anyone be upset with someone who receives wonderful chocolates and has a cat named Ladybird? Especially for no reason.
Here is my repost on the right page.
LAX charging station
Woman’s slippers size large. Where were you when I just send out my meh exchange? This size fit perfectly for my giftee. Oh yes, I did find out she doesn’t wear slippers. Never mind.
Blisslights. Puts spacy lights on your wall. Minus the stars.
StoryPhones for kids. Price tag of $99.99 still attached. Uses additional add-ons to tell more stories.
Black and pink IRK bag.
Thank you meh.
@rcwbbb I’m going to have to look up the storyphones. My youngest is starting to struggle with sleep much as I do. She loves listening to stories or podcasts. Maybe these could be a good solution! This is one of the things I love about meh.
@sillyheathen This looks like a Target clearance item. Marked down 70% to $29.99. Amazon is still selling these for $99.99.
@sillyheathen Website says it come with ZenShield to help child relax and sleep. www.storyphones.com
Tada! It’s here! It’s here!



As promised from FedEx, Andrew carefully delivered the box
First thing, the box had to go thru TRJ customs for approval.
And then unpacking.
Final loot talley
CC, Snickers, and TRJ Thank You Meh!
@therealjrn thankfully the condoms are not used!
Good to see another IRK has the meh cat stamp of approval
I got a box of condoms. I’ve been monogamous for decades. I don’t have the social skills for multiple partners. I will see if my adult lesbian daughter knows someone that could use them.
A Thermajane crew neck base layer fleece set size small.
A size small pink shirt by International Report. I’m a retired American. I don’t have small friends. To the donate pile.
An Irk bag.
A one size fits most robe. On me, it fits like a shirt. My wife can wear it as a robe. She is a wee bit shorter than me.
Here it is again without so much feline help from Cassiopeia. She is named after the star, because the white splotch on her back was star shaped when she was a kitten.

@hamjudo
Cassiopeia!
My folks had a tuxedo that had a diamond shaped spot on his back. I called him the east texas diamond back holstein cat. It made him sound so scary but he was really very sweet.
Mine arrived!
After removing the Texas air pillows, that filled half of the box, I received:

@ItalianScallion aw shucks and thanks.
@Cerridwyn Oof, a similarly duddy dud, but my Kenneth Cole coat is a small… and maybe medium would have fit.
@brainmist it really honestly looks like it’s cut for a 12-year-old. Not an adult. But who am I I haven’t worn a medium since I was 12
@Cerridwyn
You wanna trade I got six boxes of condoms lol
Got my IRK today. Not too bad.
Here’s the description
*2-pack of Yummy Joggers, women’s size S – I’ll give these to a friend or donate them
)
*Tights/pants, women’s size 2XL – donate
Battery-powered string of mini lights – keep
*10000mAh power bank – keep (charges via microUSB
*20-piece flatware set – donate (already bought a set here months ago)
*Another IRK bag! That will replace one of the bags that got a tear, a hole, or had a handle tear off.
Unfortunately the box wasn’t big enough to use to send out my Meh exchange stuff. I’ll have to unload one of the big boxes I have and make a pile on the floor.
@ItalianScallion
Let me know if you don’t end up giving your friend the small sweatpants. I’m more of a medium but small might work looking for extra sweatpants to be able to put on with only one arm.
@Star2236 Ohhhh! I gave them to her yesterday!
@ItalianScallion
No worries
Oh happy IRK day! My haul:
All items inspected and approved by management*
*From afar
YAY IRK day!
@PeacefulEasy

Your managers are ADORABLE
@PeacefulEasy That digital picture frame is worth the price of admission!
@PeacefulEasy @therealjrn The B&W kitty looks like a twin of RJN’s kitty!
@Kyeh @PeacefulEasy
That nose!
@Kyeh @therealjrn I thought the same thing when I saw that pic! Somebody cloned Boop!
@therealjrn Thank you.
@ItalianScallion Agreed. I will put it to use immediately. As time allows. Soon. When I get some extra time.
@Kyeh @therealjrn BOOP!
@PeacefulEasy @therealjrn
Great name!
@PeacefulEasy
Yours made me crack up “a girl has goals” I got a lot of those goals too
Digital picture frame - nice!
Snow brush - useful if we ever get any more snow here again.
Wise Owl camping towel - might be handy if I renew my rec center membership, as I’ve been meaning to.
BlackPink Irk bag.
The same small pink shirt everyone’s been getting.
4 12-pack boxes of condoms.
/showme bow chicka wow wow
@therealjrn Here’s the image you requested for “bow chicka wow wow”
@mediocrebot Party at @Kyeh’s! Woo hoo!
@mediocrebot @therealjrn
What makes you think y’all are invited? 
@Kyeh @mediocrebot

@Kyeh @mediocrebot @therealjrn water balloon fight?
@mediocrebot @sillyheathen @therealjrn Now there’s an idea!
So very meh.
1 pink & black IRK bag
2 boxes of condoms
1 small pink shirt
1 small microfiber towel
1 queen size air mattress in a torn up box (we have 5 cats- even if it’s in perfect shape it wouldn’t last 5 minutes.)
Everything but the IRK bag will go to our cleaning lady. She drops most of the stuff off at a homeless shelter.
Got mine today:
THREE boxes of 12 3X Maxim Tailor Made Pro Fit condoms (I don’t know who to ask if they can use them)
3 candle luminara w/remote (obviously returned but it works and I’m keeping it)
Dean Crouser 120 piece jigsaw puzzle
Numiere IPL hair removal device
Tailor Vintage navy blazer. Tag says 68.00. It’s a man’s L but I think I can wear it. There’s only three buttons)
And, of course, a black & pink bag.
Boy! There’s a whole lot of condoms up in the forum lately! Luckily, old reliable Instructables has our backsides!
Ten Unusual Uses for a Condom That Can Save Your Life
CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE!! You get that? Here’s just a sample picture from the article of a condom canteen:
So bless you Meh, for caring so much about us!
@therealjrn is it appropriate to say, Thanks for the tips?
Maybe the plethora of included condoms was in honor of the fact that it was a VD IRK?
Thank you, Meh! & SideDeal!
Pretty sure I got the swingers edition IRK. Pineapple shirt, condoms, light bulbs and a “welcome home” card making kit. You know, every good swinging couple has their pineapples out. Condoms…gotta play it safe. LIght bulbs, must ensure the house is well lit for full enjoyment of the swinging experience and a welcome home card making kit to make sure all your guests feel welcome. Too bad we aren’t swingers. I’m truly disappointed.
@kykazaa “Swingers Edition”


@kykazaa @therealjrn isn’t that only if the pineapples are upside-down?


![enter image description here][1]
3rd one in a row that has been not worth it to me. Like, this shit was okay when I refreshed the forums to get to the IRK sale before it sold out, for $5.
Without getting any wins, the game becomes dumb to play. At least this one has two pairs of shorts that can be used. Oh well. You would think I would have learned by now.
[1]:
*Returned snake oil magic light wand doesn’t have a charger. Returned busted dash cam joins the other, identical, returned busted dash cam from previous IRK. The shoulder massager thing was a sweatshop person attaching a cat-toy vibrator onto a blood pressure cuff and rebranding.
The IRK bag is cool; and there is candy on sale.
@KNmeh7 I love that description! Let’s see what AI will do with it
/showme a sweatshop person attaching a cat-toy vibrator onto a blood pressure cuff
Something went terribly wrong. Please try again.
@ironcheftoni @KNmeh7
it didn’t like that for some reason, copy and paste

No photo today -
but I got a really nice bed lounge pillow
a size small pink shirt
a Wise Owl microfiber towel
a purple irk bag
and 2 boxes of condoms (considering I am due in about 2 weeks with my baby, I feel like these came a little late… or maybe Meh is telling me I should be done having babies LOL)
@mbersiam Hope Irk is not in.the running for a baby name. But congrats and good wishes.
@mbersiam
Oh YAY…
Congratulations !




How many is this now and do you know what you’re having? 🩷 
I just LOVE babies and I think it’s aw3some that you’re having another one!
@Lynnerizer thanks
This one will be my fourth, all girls.
@mbersiam
How wonderful, girls are great and sisters are the best thing ever!
My feelings about this IRK??
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I rec’d a Size M Shirt w/ tiny pineapples; 1 12-pk of Maxim Condominiums
; HBN Outdoor Countdown Timer; Cobblestone Hand Warmer / Power Bank; and a Black / Pink IRK Bag. Also: 7 Bags of Texas Air!! 1 was deflated; just like my hopes for a Great IRK were as soon as I lifted the box!! 
@MrGoodGuy How many bedrooms in those condos? (You can now be a Meh slum landlord!)
/showme 12 meh Meh condos
Adding to this thread to remind myself not to bite again. I’m always disappointed in the contents of these things, since that’s what it says on the tin, but at least they’re interesting. Not attaching photos, since that would take longer than it took to pack this box. Hell, writing this probably took more time than it did to pack this box.
-Two International Report Essentials shirts (pink, white with black pineapple print), size S. They’re huge.
-Box of condoms
-Pop-up house card kit
-Four peanut butter dark chocolate Kind bars that probably fell out of a box. I would like to think that they were thrown in out of the goodness of my box-packer’s heart, though!
Arrived this afternoon, FOUR boxes Maxim large fit 12-pack, one small Thermajane crew neck ultra-soft longjohns in gray, a Twinkelite solar LED firework stake light, black & pink IRK bag, and a MEE 1080p USB camera with LED RING LIGHT. MEE camera/microphone works just fine, but uh there’s stuff here that fits me and stuff that doesn’t…
/8ball Just a picture of the stuff by the box, eh?
Yes definitely
A suggestion for all these boxes of condoms - leave them in the restrooms at the rowdiest bars in town. Or if you’re near a college campus, some restrooms there.
@Kyeh …tell me more about these rowdy bars…

@therealjrn What, you live in a town that has no rowdy bars?
@Kyeh back in the day I used to go to a men’s gay bar with my friends to dance because we were straight women and the guys never hit on us. We could just dance and have fun. Well there was a long bar and the end of the bar was right by the entrance and exit to the club. At the end of the bar they had a huge fish bowl full of condoms that you could grab on your way out if you needed one. I always loved that about them taking care of their customers.
@cbilyak Nice! I had a female roommate in college who went to gay bars for the same reason.
@cbilyak @Kyeh I did too! And the guys always made sure I got to my car safely when I was ready to leave.
Welp, I guess meh wanted me to party for my birthday.
They sent me seven interchangeable curling irons that look like various dildos along with 24 Maxim condoms and a really nice speaker set in case I wanted to listen to music while I had fun?
I shared a pic of what I got to my adult children and now I think they’re scarred for life
@pattyrusk1 Here’s someone who wants to party with you!

@pattyrusk1
7 interchangeable curling irons, that’s a lot of dildos lol
No Texas air, No Irk bag:
One box condoms (large fit size, thank you [Meh knows me so well]), One International Report shirt (Pineapple pattern, they’re right side up, not upside down . . . ), One Kenneth Cole coat for the Mrs. - $225 tag on it, so she’s delighted in her continued delusions of consumerism / capitalism.
@Pavlov Perfect fit on the coat, how lucky is that?!
@Kyeh She was worried since she’s not a large, but it fit quite well!
@Pavlov Yeah, they’ve actually sent me several of these in the couple of years and they do run small.
@Pavlov SOOOOOOO, how’re you able to add pics…?
the AI was zero help 
Also, congrats on the coat & that AWESOME fit
KRULL! A SKULL! BRETT HULL! AWESOME!
@gnoogie Use the image tag in the dialogue box when posting and drag and drop the pic when prompted.
@gnoogie @Pavlov If on mobile you’ll likely have to turn the device to landscape to see the button.
Happy birthday to me. Thanks meh. Got the message pretty clearly.
1× Calphalon stainless steel sauté pan with lid. (Part of a set I belive)
1x Pearl necklace
1x Box of condoms
1x Microfiber towel
1x blackpink bag
Obviously they want me to have a nice dinner date.
None of the cats wanted to claim the new fort, but the dog approves of the haul.
Classic Huggie + CZ Stud Set
Will add pic if I can figure out how
EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!
@mediocrebot
/youtube everything is awesome
KRULL! A SKULL! BRETT HULL! AWESOME!
@gnoogie To add a pic, click the link with the Moon over Mountains (shown in pic #1 below) and then follow the instructions in the prompt (pic #2) to upload your pic(s). If you’re on a phone you’ll need to turn your phone horizontally to see the link.
@gnoogie @MrGoodGuy at least on my Samsung it also works if you open in browser mode as opposed to mobile mode. That I don’t have to turn it sideways
@gnoogie Finally

/giphy minion yay
IRK arrived today in this gigantic box. Flashbacks of a previous IRK where I got a remote control monster truck enter my mind. Will I experience regret again? Will I figure out how to post an image that matches what I am typing? Let’s find out.
Looks like I got the same shirt and bag as everyone else. No, the bag wasn’t why the box was so big. This was:
It’s a juicer and a lightning to usb cord. What the heck? I started to sweat. Fortunately I also had one of these:
I originally had to turn the box upside because it had a mysterious three letter word written on the box:
I will definitely keep the IRK bag and the towel. Thinking of donating the rest but I am open to suggestions on what to do with the juicer.Pretty sure a juicer is really in there
@JT954 make sure it works and sell it? I got a hover board once and ended up sellimg it on Facebook marketplace for about half of what they were going for of sidedeal. At least covered the price of the irk
@JT954 Purrhaps you could explore juicing? If you’re religious, and do lent, then mayhaps you could try a juice a day, or do a juice stand during after worship fellowship? Or, find Easter events & do random juice pop-up tables. Or do different juices & juice combos, for family or group or events, to use as different natural egg dyes. Possibly even parlaying it into a artistic business, selling blown-out eggs, colored & pawssibly even decorated in addition to the colors, like your own juice colored decorated versions of Fabergé eggs
🪺…
No photos, but I was whelmed with my IRK!
Alien Tape
Irk Bag
Hard shell wallet/charger
Hand warmer
Dyson Supersonic Hairdryer
@mskateia nice!! The hairdryer is definitely worth the price of admission
@ironcheftoni No doubt! A $300 hair dryer? I’ll take it!
@mskateia and
alien tape

Upon further review, the Dyson hair dryer had no power button. However, it had never been registered, so I got that done and chatted with Dyson support. They sent me a shipping label and will send a new one. Thanks, Meh!
@mskateia Wow! Congratulations!
I think I made out pretty good.
@robmonks I was thinking of getting one of those mini circular saws when I first saw it. I think I’d use it a lot and I’m guessing you will too. It wouldn’t bother me at all, since dragging out my big, heavy Milwaukee circular saw and setting something up to use it safely is a PITA unless I really needed to use it. Nice IRK!
@robmonks well, if you don’t like the card house, you could use the saw to make modifications…
Mine arrived yesterday and I have not managed a photo, but most is a repeat of above.
Pink/Black IRK bag
Sm Pink Shirt
Card House Kit thingy
2 Small portable batteries (2,500 ea), my son laughed and said they are the disposable kind since most of ours are 20,000 or more
The unique item is a Bosma Aegis smart door lock - have not researched it’s quality at all yet.
Very NOT Meh, thank you, and NO CONDOMS, it’s like Meh knows I don’t have a penis


@cbilyak
But you DO have BALLS for sharing that private info!!

@cbilyak Being a tech geek, I was curious about it and found a review here, if you’re interested. It looks pretty good and seems easy to install and remove (the latter of which would be important for a renter, like me).
@cbilyak I bought the Bosma lock here a couple years ago in a bundle with a keypad.
The lock itself worked great – for nearly a year. It replaces the thumb turn of your deadbolt, leaving the outside lock untouched, using your original key to manually lock or unlock and leaving no evidence of its installation since I never even opened the box the keypad came in. I installed the app though and was able to lock and unlock the door with it.
Being made almost entirely of plastic though, it stopped working reliably after several months, even with fresh batteries installed. The motor and/or the gears simply wore out from daily use. Possibly exacerbated by some folks manually turning the lock instead of pushing the button which seemed to stress its clutch.
It’s still on our door, but no batteries are installed, making it more of a palm turn vs. a thumb turn, and works just fine in that capacity, but no longer “smart”.
I considered buying a replacement (I think the lock sans keypad was on SideDeal for about $50, vs. the $60 I paid for the combo) but thought that was a bit steep given its lifespan.
If you want to try it out, I’ll see if I can dig up the keypad for you. If not, I’d be willing to take it off your hands for the shipping cost.
@ciabelle whisper me your address and I’ll send it your way, no need to pay for postage. Full disclosure, I am heading out of town in a little over 2 days so likely won’t get it shipped until I am back in town the week of March 9.
The black and pink Meh bag.
Some women’s moccasins. I’ll put them in the house slipper rack by the front door. They’ll probably fit some guest at some point.
Some gel inserts that I foolishly decided to have the wrong size feet for.
Some condoms that I foolishly decided to have the wrong size…
(My primary care doc’s office is pretty progressive and actually has a basket out. I’ll likely leave them there next time I’m in.)
A dash cam. Never considered having one. Maybe I’ll think about it.
A power bank heavy enough to kill a man. Without a cord. But I’ve got plenty of cords. I’ll probably put that in the garage or something. As a backup.![enter image description here][1]
[1]:
@Skipbidder Well, that picture isn’t very good, is it? Guess I’m just too old to use the computer at this point.
@Skipbidder Well, at least, on the pawsitive side of things, your pic has A LOT of room for improvement (which seems better than little or no room for improvement)… 🫤
Mine was pretty good, sort of almost reinstated my confidence in meh. Got a bunch of condoms that went in the trash. We’re Pro-more babies. 3 pack digital life like candles apparently 90$ retail but batteries not included oh well… lumenaria or something. Some designer… Found it… Nicole Miller lady phone charger cables for android and apples pink, daughter will use these $20. Black and pink bag, always use these, have quite the collection but aldi weekly so… air inflator battery pack light deal, doesn’t jump start but some value, zuzee ultra portable inflation pump z1 around 20-30$, will use this but have another one that also does the jump starty. Wonder if in a pinch I could wire this up to jump the starts
. I think that was all
/giphy chatty-weird-mallard

Woman’s shirt and tights, small, donate. A holiday themed tie, and a leg exerciser. Not bad.
@Springbank Did you get a cat in your irk too? Or do you just have a Chief irk inspector?
@ironcheftoni She loves irk bags. Her brother is just out of the picture preparing to pounce and steal her spot on the bag.
@Star2236 I like the watch
@00null00
I do too I wish it was more of a women’s style watch
So I got a laptop bag, tabletop fire, and a watch and Not one not two but six boxes (I think I’m the winner) of condoms sorry meh my safe sex orgy party was last week so you’re a little late with this box I’m gonna put the condoms in my garage sale pile. I wonder if they’ll sell lol
@Star2236 Good score on the watch!
A Google image search shows it to be a Shield Condor SLDSH118-2 watch that sells for $400 from the manufacturer & 1 is listed on eBay for $200.
https://shieldwatches.com/products/sldsh118-2
Gotta wonder though; did you get a CONDOR watch to go with your stash of CONDOMS??

@Star2236 meh’s new slogan. Quantity over quality. Didn’t they realize they were sending it to the meh exchange organizer who repeatedly stressed quality over quantity. From the looks of the meh exchange, everyone took that to heart.
@MrGoodGuy
Yes, but I wonder how much their bring bought at? That what I always look at to determine what they’re actually worth because people can list them for whatever they want doesn’t mean they’re actually gonna get it.
@rcwbbb
I did throw a box of condoms into my recipients, just for giggles because I had such a large quantity of them
My IRK arrived today. Gee, I wonder what could possibly be inside?

Why yes indeed, there is a puppy potty training mat, no pups here, along with a small pink shirt which won’t fit any of us, a lightning cable which my brother-in-law might still have a use for, and the pink on black IRK bag.

@ciabelle My IRK inspector was sleeping on the job.
I was able to get pics of a few things but Tuc kinda took over and HE became more of the focus, and model.
What was inside was…
A brand new pair of black suede Lamo boots in size 6 that I thought would fit my niece, unfortunately she’s a size 7. So they’ll be given to someone who wears a 6, I’m sure I can find a taker in the Buy Nothing Group.
A set of those silky polyester thermal underwear that others got. These red size medium beauties have been claimed by my sister. They’ll be great for keeping her warm while tending to the horses and barn chores with my niece.

Lol 
These also didn’t make the picture, not unless you’re an eagle eye like me and can spot them underneath the shoe box!
48 packs of that PRIME strawberry banana electrolyte drink mix. Haven’t tried it yet but I’m hoping it’s good because I need a new drink and it’s got hardly any sugar which is just what this diabetic is looking for.




They didn’t make the pictures either, but again, your eagle eye might spot them in the background behind the boots, or not, I honestly don’t remember.
We found a sleeper, a little black velvet bag with a VERY sparkly CZ or moissanite tennis necklace! Thankfully it was found just before the box was tossed!
My sister will be getting that as I’m a real jewelry snob and only wear the real macoy!
And besides, she said it will really dress up that thermal underwear!
Lol 
And always saving the best till last, one very Valentine’s Day like black and pink IRK bag!
🩷


No eagle eye is gonna help you spot that bad boy, it’s tucked away not to be covered in kitty fur!
Even though I actually bought it…


Thanks for the love Meh!
@Lynnerizer another cat approved irk!
Meh, definitely meh.
Woman’s booties size 7
travel steamer
Alien tape
Men’s black shirt xxl
Black and pink bag
A little late posting due to the ceiling falling in the place I am moving into, kidney stones that wouldn’t pass and falling off a ladder… and moving Tuesday…
Pineapple and pink shirts both too small, as is the navy blue stretch pants (well maybe they aren’t but I don’t wear spray on pants even if they fit). The VD bag and the smart door lock which I have no use for since I rent and can’t modify the door for that.
Better late than never, right?

-clothing that doesn’t fit
-towel (nice)
-earrings that run $59 on morningsave
-analon with copper pot
-no condoms
The earring posts will probably turn black but I will wear them. So sparkly!
I love the pot. Thanks for the pot!
@sammydog01 Always nice to get random pots and pans in IRKs.
@Pony @sammydog01
Meh sends pot now? Sweet!
@Pony @therealjrn Pot and condoms.
