Is this enough stamps?

Wait until you get a parcel from china with a big rusty piece of 1/8" steel plate stickytaped inside the box to increase the weight!

Sounds weird, I know, until you check the shipping charges and see it just made it into the next weight bracket up, and the supplier gets kickbacks from shipping charges.

So they stuck some rusty steel trash in my electronic parts order, and I paid another $20 for shipping.

 

New element found, the element of surprise!

 

It is France after all, the post office was likely on strike so he/she could not get it weighed and sender just covered it with stamps.

Hasn't been that long ago that the USPO did this. Though they just put the stamps in one corner of the package.

Not a Joke. It's robbery.

Edit: Which needs to be reported. or Googled or Twittered or what ever for those who need to know.

 

Nah just more "Chinese Honesty".

I deal with it constantly.

 

It took a couple of hours, but I manage to read through the entirr jokes thread. I see Split Ininity is still a joke/legend in his own mind. Would that make him a constant?

Man dies and he goes to hell. He is met by an assistant devil to give him the nickel tour. Tells the man that he need to decide on a room where he will spend eternity. The devil opens the first door and there are flames inside. People screaming in pain as the flames burn the flesh from their bodies. Then the flesh grows back and it starts all over again. The man thought hey this is not for me. The go to the second room. Same deal except it is so cold that the flesh freezes on their bodies and crumbles only to grow again. Man figures nope. They go into the last room and it is a comfortable 70 deg. Everyone is standing in human waste up to their waists drinking coffee. Man thinks hey it is a comfortable temperature and look you get to drink coffee. So there is some crap on the floor. How bad can it be? The man tells the devil, "I choose this room". The devil says "once the door closes you cannot change your mind". The man says "no this is the room I want". Door slams shut and announcement is made, "OK coffee break is over! Everyone back on their heads".

My brother-in-law did this in his kitchen to my sister and parents.

 

Two men were waiting in line at the Pearly Gates. One was a priest, the other, Joe, was a former NY city cab driver.

St. Peter meets both of them, then invites Joe into Heaven.

The priest asks St. Peter why Joe was invited in first.

"Well,", says St. Peter, "You had people pray on Sundays. Joe had people praying every day of the week when they were his passengers."

 

Hey, didn't I post a picture here? What happened to it?

Thought the same when I first saw it.

 

I did not do it, but it was moderated. Some of the folks here do make me wonder.

Ever been on the Darwin Awards website?

 

Ahh.....

Suppose I should have put a big red sign after it.

 

Which in itself is a joke. The folks who would do it would see the 1st half and rush to try it out before going to the second half.

 

Coincident?

I don't think so.

Mr. 555 got the 555th post.

I would put the warning sign first!

Strange, in the thread it's showing up as the 556th post....

 

Two 555's? I can live with that.

 

Good one. Two 555's
