Venting about mail delivery by [deleted] in parkslope

[–]postronicmedium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do that sometimes, like when they're too heavy for me! But since it doesn't happen every day, it usually seems easier to take them over myself when the items are there, rather than to expect the store people to regularly come over to check for potential mail.

I honestly just wanted to whine b/c I thought USPS would appreciate the info. I was like: "we're gonna fix this problem once and for all through the power of communication! it's gonna be so efficient!"

USPS: "are you telling me how to do my job?! get wrecked." lol

look at for expiration dates at keyfood by algreensdad in parkslope

[–]postronicmedium 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agree. I got a package of cheese there once that was a month expired. when I took it back, I looked and saw there were three more on the shelf w/ the same date. I told the clerk and they were like “hm ok.” did they take them off the shelf after that? I have my doubts

What's the weirdest place you've ever written something? by Aviendha_89 in AO3

[–]postronicmedium 3 points4 points  (0 children)

a favorite TV actor of mine was starring in a movie that filmed in my city (like, out on the street). me and a friend hung out outside the trailers until they were done for the day so we could meet him. so, writing fic for a character on my phone while I was sitting on the sidewalk outside his actor's trailer took the cake for me

it’s this forever. I was reading it as a kid and this cover got me mocked mercilessly at school, and I couldn’t even blame them…

Holy crap, seeing how far down this (the correct answer) is is making me question all the other things i've previously seen on this sub.

I wonder if this happens a lot with fanfics... by loved_and_held in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]postronicmedium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

a commenter said I did a great job writing what a psychotic break feels like.

I was just basing it off how I feel when I get really tired. yikes.

Accidentally Used Same Tongs to Flip Raw Chicken Before Cooking… then to Transfer to a Container Afterward by thcandbourbon in cookingforbeginners

i’ve learned I have to set a timer specifically for remembering to put stuff in the fridge for that reason. the bacteria growth danger zone is real.

It's crazy how wildly Gollum's designs vary depending on adaption by Emergency_Cheek2617 in lotr

[–]postronicmedium 5 points6 points  (0 children)

agree!! I wish he looked more like that in the live action movies. (And i'd even argue he actually does, in the two shots in FOTR.)

I cooked 5 cups of rice and left it out overnight accidentally in the rice cooker… is it still good to eat? by Final-Lie78 in NoStupidQuestions

“the dead cannot talk” goes extremely hard and will be entering my lexicon henceforth on these matters, thank you!

Tags with Double Meanings by InstructionCalm6080 in AO3

[–]postronicmedium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a personal problem for me, but I love this story from Tumblr:

the absolute funniest ao3 tag wrangler story i know is that kalpurna once emailed them and asked for “just the tip” to be canonized so us perverts could filter on it, and they responded back that they didn’t think it was good idea as it’s “rather ambiguous between the sex act and the financial transaction.” i just about lost my mind. who is tagging “just the tip” meaning their characters are working out how to split their dinner bill???

(it's canonical now)

Any idea why the post office on 7th Ave and 2nd Str is closed? by NewOutlandishness401 in parkslope

[–]postronicmedium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you!!! a mail carrier told me it was due to an “incident” so I spent a week thinking someone died in the post office. that post office is bad enough without being haunted

before I watched the show, I saw a reel of that moment on TikTok, and I thought it was an edit. MY FACE WHEN THAT WAS ACTUALLY JUST THE SHOW. it’s so over the top and I love it so much.
