Sorry, the last few, (3?, 4?! wait ALL OF THEM) IRKs were not anywhere close to being worth $15. I see other’s IRKs & get IRK envy, but nope, I’ve never got anything of any value.
@Joedetroit I think most of us don’t get anything of value and sometimes get nearly empty ones as well (or some literal trash items). The days of lots of people getting really good irks is just a memory these days. I do miss though the efforts meh would sometimes make with things like the bubble wrap irk jokes or sometimes actually personally picking out items for an irk to send someone.
/showme the good old days with really good irks that meh put together for some people
@Joedetroit@Kidsandliz This is pretty amazing. If meh had the horsepower, then some of these titles should be included in the IRK. You could put MP4s of the YouTube videos in them. In fact, why not a “meh greatest hits” CD? There is enough material on meh. Maybe some old woot videos too. You don’t have to make a different CD. Just change the jewel case covers. It would be an “Irk-Perk” that we could covet.

Most of the stuff I already have I’ve been buying for the last year but it sure fun I didn’t get my sleep last night I didn’t want to miss anything good which I did I must have dozed off dammit
Ugh. I knew it. No sleep for the weary.
Bring on the CHEAP STUFF so maybe I can score an IRK! Not gonna go broke just to save $15 PLUS waste $15 more on junk! CAPEESH??
Well I got mine early this time, hopefully it’ll bring me some good stuff!
/giphy oppressive-tangled-pie
@Lynnerizer uhunh, good luck with that!
/youtube uhunh, uhunh
@Lynnerizer YT probably saw my IRK
Sorry about that, but sure yours will be better.
I can’t imagine getting 3 crappy things just to get $15 off the IRK. Sigh. I wish there were some kids on my lawn to yell at.
/showme kids holding IRK bags and making faces at grumpy old man telling them to “GET OFF MY LAWN!!!”.
@cfg83 Here’s the image you requested for “kids holding IRK bags and making faces at grumpy old man telling them to GET OFF MY LAWN!!!.”
@mediocrebot Oof, I was happy until I saw that kid in the green shirt with two left hands.
@cfg83 @mediocrebot
Maybe he’s just SERIOUSLY double jointed…?
@chienfou @mediocrebot Or the girl has a third arm coming out of her back?

@mediocrebot OK so this is too weird. I am not sure Mike, for example, will be happy only to get a CD of a car and not the actual car.
@Kidsandliz @mediocrebot as someone who has emulators and ROMs on a disc, I feel called out.
@Kidsandliz @mediocrebot @Tater2point0 Of course Mike will not be happy. This is an Instant Regret Kit not a B.O.B (Box of Bliss)

I’m going to step out on a limb here and predict this is a two day Marathon…
@chienfou Based on the cryptic clues in the e-mail I think you are correct.
@chienfou @yakkoTDI Yeah, I was noticing the looonnnng timers on some of the items after only a few hours in.
@cfg83 @yakkoTDI
That’s what I get for reading the write up on the IRK I guess.
@cfg83 @yakkoTDI
Whoops… Guess I cut off the first paragraph in the write-up,which says it’s a two-day event as well.
And the timer appears to be broke. It’s not counting down. On any device whether it’s on my Wi-Fi or not on my Wi-Fi.

@dave @josh @Pavlov @troy my timer right now says 21 minutes and 94 seconds left
@Cerridwyn @dave @josh @troy Appears to be working now.
@Cerridwyn @dave @troy
@Pavlov I think you’re trying to reach @jouest, not “@josh.”
@Cerridwyn @dave @josh @jouest @Kyeh @Pavlov @troy
I thought his name WAS Josh?
@Cerridwyn @dave @josh @jouest @Pavlov @therealjrn @troy It is, but it’s not his account name.
@jouest oops
So far, the stuff coming up has been even more meh than usual. Mehbe they’ve save the good stuff for later on…
@werehatrack
@werehatrack Ah, the triumph of hope over experience…

@user60047496 thars a link on the front page for “ICYMI” (in case you missed it) for all the prior sales.
