The Bubblelope Scare

[atari_envy]

Don't you hate it when you are waiting for that CIB game to come in the mail and there in your mailbox is the Bubblope^TM? You feel your blood pressure rise, "Son a b*tch," you say to yourself. "I told him to send it in a box."

 

You rip the Bubblope apart with extreme prejudice, only to find a priority mail box inside the Lope's innards. Slowly the red recedes from your vision.

 

This happened to me today and a few times in the past.

I've been told by the USPS that it is illegal (federal offense naturally) to use their mailing boxes for anything other than their intended purpose. How do I know this? You used to be able to turn those boxes inside out until they started stamping USPS Priority on 'em.

lol, I've done this before. Sorry for those who almost raged over it

s'ok, you are forgiven, and I really don't mind the momentary spike in blood pressure. As long as it is boxed in some way -- you could make the box out of ivory tusks for all I care. Just protect the game box!

I had that happen just the other day. I also had a crushed USPS box show up with a surprising intact CIB game arrive too. The person who shipped it, put in at an angle and that is how the box was crushed in the same angle.

Now that is funny.
