Fuck the motherfucking United States Postal Service.
Fuck them in the ass with a blowtorch.

That is all.

Ship with UPS...

Brown is better.

And I don't have a gnarly gash on my boot from dropping a heavy box.

And I never fell through a big ass TV either.

Lastly, we didn't spill 10,000 M&M's.

That is all.

Actually, the image of a disheveled, wild-eyed Dan wielding a blowtorch is pretty scary. O_O

Actually, the image of Dan wielding anything is unsettling.

Dan wielding....

.... a giant halibut!

... a tabby kitten (rowr!)!

... an enormous pink nerf bat!

... a Dan version of "Mini-me", which is dual-wielding bananas!

Unsettling? Wink

Yes.

Sounds like Dan was hired by Marcellus Wallace to use a blowtorch on someone ass.

Speaking of postal service, does anyone know what a standard amount of postage will cover? I mean, if you put several pages in an envelope, so it's thicker and heavier than a standard envelope, will it still be covered, or is there a certain weight limit where you have to pay extra postage?

weight limit. If it LOOKS fatty, they'll weigh it and charge accordingly.

I'm pretty sure it's by weight... I have no clue. I always asked my pops, lol.. he knew all that kinda shit. So figure it out and tell me, cuz I should know this stuff, hehe.

So if it were sent with insufficient postage, would they send it back to us, instead of off to its destination?

(I'm just curious about this because we sent off a stuffed envelope today, and put on extra postage just to make sure it got there; hopefully we put enough!)

You'll be fine. If you placed, say, double the postage, a stuffed envelope will reach its destination.

Okay. Current postage was 41cents, and we had 37cent stamps and 2c stamps, so we just stuck 2 37cent stamps on, for a total of 74 cents, and called it good.
