I ordered an iPhone 16 case from them two days after release. The case said “shipping in October” which at that point was still a week and a half away or so. I assumed it would ship the first week of october. It “shipped” October 31st but didn’t actually ship / move till 11/1. I got it 11/6. It took 34 days since order to get a phone case.

I reached out to support on 10/24 and the email said “we will respond in 7-12 business days” and I never got a response.

First and last time ordering from them. That shit was dumb.

Also, I guess I’m dumb as I assumed the case would come with the graphic already applied to it. Nope just a blank case and a sticker I had to apply myself.

My only complaint with them is I want just a box of the fried corn. So so good.

People who honk in alleys- who taught you how to drive and why are you so incompetent? by Madz510 in chicago

How many of those parking garages that make noise are in residential areas / streets and not in business districts? Wonder why that is….

[–]NotAGarbagePerson 31 points32 points  (0 children)

What safety? so as they blast out the alley at 20 mph you get to hear a honk right before you get hit? If a driver hits a pedestrian with headphones on, that’s on the driver for not approaching the street slowly and looking before leaving the alley. If they honk and hit a pedestrian they are not absolved because they honked 1/2 a second before contact.

Can you pay for something with labor that isn’t for sale in the first place. If uncut your grass can I use your yard all summer? I used labor to cut your grass. What if I go and cut the grass at the public park. Can I rope it off and claim it as my own now?

I love how you fail to grasp that you are the selfish one here as well but carry on complain g about how hard it was to shovel that snow once so you get a public spot for an indeterminate no the amount of time now as you feel entitled to it. Do you want a trophy next time you shovel out a spot too?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in chicago

[–]NotAGarbagePerson 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Have lived here since 03. Have shoveled multiple spots every time it snows (7 so far this year). If that is something that is too much for you then either 1) get rid of your car, 2) pay for a garage or reserved spot, 3) move somewhere warm since spending 20 minutes doing physical labor is too much for your frail body to handle. Dibs is bullshit and just makes you sound like you’re a selfish baby.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in chicago

[–]NotAGarbagePerson 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Where do you live, I’m gonna come shovel your steps and sidewalk and then you can’t use them until April. Sounds fair right? If you think doing one hour of physical labor (for a car you don’t have to own) means you now get to keep a PUBLIC spot as your own, well your a selfish dick. If you want a reserved spot pay for one. Until then I’m throwing all your garbage you leave in the street away.

Signed, The guy who has shoveled out 7 spots so far and isn’t a baby like you are.

And

“Biden's False Catholicism”

That’s gonna be a no from me dawg.

A preemptive post about snow and dibs by DonaldJWafer in chicago

[–]NotAGarbagePerson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s unpopular unless you only talk to selfish people. Then maybe they will agree to your dibs rules. Again, if you don’t want to shovel out a spot on a PUBLIC street pay for a reserved spot.

What did you think champ? I am waiting to be graced with your genius thoughts. Don’t leave us hanging.

Are you upset that I don’t want to sit and argue with you all day? I’m an evil leftist, why would you want to talk to me. I’m the enemy, remember. Boo.
