So I check a few minutes ago and it's still sitting in Olathe, KS. Those knuckleheads have had to misplace the damn thing. Probably fell off the conveyor, then got ran over by a forklift, so some poor schmuck tossed it in the trash so he wouldn't get yelled at.
If you need your penis pump that badly just pay extra for overnight shipping,…..

Going through basic training getting screamed at only to find out 26 years later that they are going to stop screaming at recruits! 🙄

Podcasters not having basic level knowledge of what they are discussing,… I like to vary up my podcast topics quite a bit lately. Angels Baseball, Movies, Halloween History, cryptozoology, serial killers are all some topics I’ve listened to in the last month,… each time they’ve touched on a very basic level sub topics and gotten it all wrong or clearly don’t know about it. Like how dafaq are you hosting a show on Night of the Living Dead and you don’t know how Barbra dies in the movie!?! Or a show on cryptids and you’ve never heard of Mokele-mbembe!?! An educational podcast on Halloween history that states the Celts had no ties to Halloween’s origins and that its really just a Pride Holiday!? An Angels baseball podcaster that doesn’t know Tim Salmon won a World Series!? A podcaster on Serial Killers who was floored to learn Richard Ramirez and Zodiac weren’t the same guy. Its like every podcast I choose does this shit. Do these people not even just google their topics before hand??

I get that any random person can just podcast but damn, should the host having basic level knowledge of the show’s topic not be a minimum expectation??

It is 2022 and there are still people in the office that do not understand the concept of REPLY and REPLY ALL on fucking emails.

I had a package arrive in fort Wayne, depart to Ohio, then to Illinois. I live ~20 mins from fort Wayne.
I decided to call the company where I ordered from. The CSR tells me that these take a little time and to give it until the end of the week. That would make it three weeks from when I ordered it. Just checked and now it shows my package just arrived in Orlando with a scheduled delivery day of Wednesday. lol

It took a week to get to your city (ok fine), then took another week to leave the city and is now in Florida... I wouldn't believe it if it weren't for your tracking.

Your neighbor is probably taking all of the packages. Take all the good stuff and the crappy stuff suddenly shows up a few days later.

Nah, this was actually a thing in Cali but not here. Plus, I’m talking about ‘delivered in mailbox’ notices,… behind lock and key. I’ll get the delivered notification from the tracking but it often isn’t delivered for a number of days. I think my mailman just sucks, or they are waiting on my neighbors to clear the lock boxes of their packages,…

I'm guessing you gave him a tip on a good burrito joint and had a bad experience, so it's payback.
