Odd Search Results

On the backend for World of Meh’s WordPress, we have installed a statistics plugin that gives us a daily unique hits graph, top articles, top pages, and many other little tidbits of information.  By far, the most interesting, and hilarious information it provides are the top searches that result in finding our little piece of the pie.  It speaks volumes to the quality of content that one can...[Read More]

I’ve got a lovely bunch of turnips

While that doesn’t quite have the ring of “coconuts”, it’s fairly relevant to Lindsey and me, as well as others like us. By “like us”, I mean Animal Crossing fiends. Lindsey and I bought white turnips (kind of a stock market thing, in the game) at 91 each, which is a fairly cheap price.  Lindsey bought $80,000 worth, and I bought $320,000 worth.  Today, we found...[Read More]

One Post per Day? Ha!

On Monday’s post, I said: “One post per day still going strong.” And then we missed Tuesday’s post.  Doesn’t that just make us look awesome.  There were extenuating circumstances, however.  We swear!  We discovered on Monday night that we had some legal issues to take care of by this morning, and yesterday was spent scrambling.  With everything that’s been going...[Read More]

Big Trouble in Little China

When life shits on you, it really shits on you. Aside from the issue of my family refusing to attend my wedding, even though their reasons are hypocritical, and the death of Lindsey’s great great uncle last week, a new pile of bullshit has just landed square on our heads. Sorry, no details for now, but maybe one day. Sorry the post wasn’t more interesting today, but at least there was ...[Read More]

One Hundred!

This is our 100th post on the World of Meh.  Our inaugural post was December 27th, 2008.  In less than three months, we’ve posted up 100 pointless articles about random crap that nobody cares about!  What a wonderful contribution to society we have provided! Self-deprication aside, we’ve had a great deal of fun with the site so far, and we’re looking forward to a great deal of fu...[Read More]

Last Second Post!

We’ve had a long and (for the most part) bad day, with various events happening that have just been kind of overwhelming.  We’ll just call this a throwaway post to maintain our one post per day streak. Sorry, and thanks for understanding! -Because I said so

State Tax Return (California) / NIN|JA Tour!

Most people know about the financial troubles that California has right now.  State workers are having their pay reduced, budgets are being cut, prices are increasing, and the state tax returns were delayed.  I filed my taxes in January. I got my state tax refund today. It came at a very good time.  I was running a bit short, and we’re going out of town tonight, so the extra few hundred doll...[Read More]

MehCast Update!

Hello, World of Meh!  As has been mentioned on Twitter, Episode 10, and on the Episode 10 recap, Episode 11, originally scheduled for Friday, March 20, 2009, has been rescheduled to Sunday, March 22, 2009 at 2:00pm Pacific Standard Time (5:00pm Eastern Standard Time).  We don’t like to do this, but we had a scheduling conflict that could not be solved.  We will be out of town, and Lindsey wi...[Read More]

iPhone Software Update 3.0

It’s about god damn time.  Yesterday morning the announcement was made that, come summer, the iPhone comes complete with MMS, cut/copy/paste, landscape keyboard functionality in Mail/Notes/SMS/etc, and more thanks to the 3.0 software update! Unfortunately, we still don’t have the freedom to run background processes, and the camera is still comparatively sub-par, but hey, can’t wi...[Read More]

Year 1 Episode 11 Recap

Episode 11 is done and gone!  We were worried at the start of the show because we had absolutely no viewers!  However, as we soldiered on, our awesome viewers started popping in. We had a short show, clocking in at well under two hours, which was actually kind of strange.  We had a full week to talk about, and a prepared list of show notes, but were only able to jibber-jabber for a little over an ...[Read More]

What. The. HELL.

I could try to express my shock in words, or I could show you a picture that will explain everything completely. Feast your eyes on this: I hate Hollywood.  This movie was supposed to have a September 2008 THEATER RELEASE. THEATER. RELEASE. It ended up being released March 1, 2009, on Cartoon Network, with the DVD following shortly after. Seriously.  Go look at your local Blockbuster Video and see...[Read More]

R.I.P. Kitty

I got a call from my dad yesterday.  He lives in Oklahoma City, where I was born and raised.  When I was a kid, we got a pet cat that I creatively named Kitty.  I must have been in third grade, at the oldest.  She was a beautiful calico cat.  She turned 21 years old this year, and he called to say that she died last Monday.  I remember thinking when I was a kid of how I would react to this very ne...[Read More]
