FedEx emailed me that my package cannot be delivered to me because the “barcode on the package was unreadable”. That is sad to hear, but I don’t get why my package cannot be delivered.

Let’s examine the facts currently in FedEx’s possession:
1. They possess a certain package in Ocala, FL with barcode issues
2. They know that package belongs to me because they contacted me about it
3. They know my address

:confused:
Computer says no.

Gotta be more specific there, dude. Reasonable minds can differ on what constitutes "massive".


Though everyone can agree that your mom is.

Was is it FedEx Ground? They are horrible. Unless the barcode was completely removed, or damaged in a way that every single line couldn't align to form a scan... it's bullshit. The driver was probably running late, and didn't want to get dinged for not delivering on time, so you were sacrificed to go waste time picking it up yourself.

Yes, FedEx ground. I should also mention that I’m nowhere close to Ocala, FL - it’s about a 6 hour drive.

Murder-for-hire schemes. Does the hiring party actually expect the contract killer not to roll when they get caught by the police? If you want a heinous crime done right, do it yourself.

Or trade with a rando on public transit

Read this and immediately googled price and availability. $9,420! That’s a fair price


I’d keep this thing on my driveway overnight waiting for the catalytic converter bandits

This front page snippet is the best new fact I learned this week:

Legal to own​

In the USA Flamethrowers are federally unregulated and not even considered a firearm (ironic) by the BATF. No need for any NFA tax stamps, weapons licensing or even an FFL dealer. It’s the purchaser’s responsibility to ascertain that ownership and or use does not violate any state or local laws or regulations. Check out our FAQ page for information on international deliveries.
