USA, baby....
 
The only shows I could post more references to than the Office are Mr Show, the Simpsons, and Trailer Park Boys.

(Beer)

Have never seen a single episode of these two. Shows you how much I generally pay attention to TV and movies and ****...

One of the funniest lines of the series, in my opinion.

haha...after I posted my last one above, I found this one and considered replacing it since I said I wouldn't post anymore...I might agree...that's a helluva line.
 
The thing I love about the office is it never was emotional till it had to be and u never expected to care about the characters as much as u do Michael last day was fantastic and the finale last 20 min was some of the best tv for a sitcom I have seen. There r so many great funny episodes that I can't even think of my favorite but diversity day got my hooked

Dude...is that a period in there??? :eek:
 
So those of you who trade. This is the 5th instance I heard (2 of my own) that 12 bottle styro shippers are getting snatched in Portland OR and "destroyed" via Fed Ex. Be careful out there. I think they are just picking them out because it's a shape they realize what it is.

Jeez. You know what you have to do to destroy one of those fuckers? Something smells fishy.

Exactly what I thought when they destroyed one of my boxes a few months ago. Not in the PNW, but in Jersey. It was a 4 bottle Spirited Shipper box with every bottle Ziplock'd, bubble wrapped and each sleeve was filled with peanuts. They said the box was "totally destroyed". I call ******** unless they ran the damn thing over with a forklift.

Out of college, I worked in a distribution center. Unless something is sub-2 inches high, you're not running over it with any sort of machine. The fender (for lack of a better term) is very low to the ground and will just push it along. The wheels are very small. I saw my guys do some pretty stupid things (and even did a few myself) but one thing always left a last impression. If something is packed properly, it can withstand a shitload of damage.

For something like that to legitimately happen, something huge would have had to fallen over on top of it. I'm talking 50+lbs.
 
I have seen both FedEx and UPS take good care of packages ship by me or to me where something broke and then repackaged and continued along. I highly question anything "destroyed". Someone knows what it is and just kept it for themselves.

Yeah I was just kidding about the forklift. Like greg4579 said, I think someone saw that it said "Spirited Shipper" on the bottom of the box and kept it. The route driver, mostly likely.

In this particular instance, the box was on truck for delivery, then they said the "label was damaged", then it was never checked in again. After like 2 weeks of limbo, they told me it had been destroyed with no explanation of how.

It wasn't actually destroyed. It was confiscated because they said alcohol was in it and it was sent of to be destroyed (drank I assume)

The only way they knew what was in it was by opening it and spending 20 minutes unpacking it because I double bagged, bubble wrap, usps envelope, bubble wrap, 12 shipper, industrial garbage bag around it extra boxes on the sides and top for padding.

They pulled it out, and word is with the other 4 I heard, because of it's obvious 12 bottle shipper shape.

99% positive mine were taken because of shape. They got delayed because of weather, sat around for 2 days and people were probably bored at work. Seems to be happening a lot though from the Portland area, as I said I heard of 3 others it happening to.
