Okay, picture this: Radiant Silvergun is your holy grail. You scour the internet daily looking for a cheap copy, until you give up and decide to bite the bullet, paying 138e for a mint copy with extra fast shipping. During the week you live in a university dorm, but to make sure no nitwit picks it out of your mailbox you have it sent to your parents place, where you go every weekend. So the days pass, and every goddamn day you call home to check, but no RSG. Next weekend you come home, still no RSG. You go back to the dorm, and call home every day. Nothing. Then, the weekend after, you come home to your parents' place again. So you ask your mother: "Any mail for me?". "No" she replies. You feel anxious about the game, your holy grail, being lost in the post. However, several moments later, your eye catches a notice from the postman lying somewhere in the living room, saying a parcel came but noone was home, and it has to be collected at the post office now as they won't come around a second time. h: "THEN WHAT THE #%^t#@^# IS THIS?" I ask my mother. "Oh that... I thought that wasn't important. I forgot to tell you" OH: OH: :evil: :evil: :noooo: :noooo: :-( So now I have to wait FOUR GODDAMN DAYS for the PO to open to finally lay hands upon my Holy Grail, just because my mom didnt realize that I called home every damn day to ask specifically for an occurrence like this! I am so FUCKIN' FRUSTRATED. Yep. That's how frustrated I am. Even more, as the sign fell over and hit a derelict Gamecube, so now the sign's damaged. Argh. Also, I cut my lip while making the picture. :munky: Life doesn't get any shittier than this. But it's nice to be back here! :typin:
Man, that sucks... i just bought RSG too, and i was going to complain that it took 27 days to ship... I think the playstation sign was just trying to defend itself, when you went to punch it, i think it panicked.
Hey Anti, don't feel so frustated. At least it arrived. In my case i'll have to live with the fact that stuff like Killzone Beta, PS1 Dexdrive, PS2 Central Station Disc and, Ape Escape (1 and 2) never arrived... Damn Brazilian Post Office. Damn Brazilian customs. The sign tried to defend itself? Kick it's ass!! OH: :lol:
Oh god, I cannot imagine will happen to you when you go and find that a shipment of lead weights was "stacked" (read: dropped) on top of it while they were waiting for someone to pick up the package...
Be Attitude For Gains! 1) Postal Vigilance 2) Sign Shoryuken 3) Guinness Hat Chin up, clart! Don't take any guff from those swine! And yeah, look on the bright side - at least you know it arrived safe! If it makes you feel any better, I have yet to have time to play the SFZ3 you sent.
Man, that sucks really bad. I get frustrated whenever I miss Fedex and have to wait until the next day.
Hey, thanks guys I feel a bit better now... I think of the delayed pleasure as some sort of character-building tool. And yeah, the stupid hats have become some sort of trademark And Johnny: man, that sucks. There's no words for it :-(
Yeah, it sucks. But what can i do? From now on i'll think about using FEDEX, even if the cost is way more than regular airmail. PS: Yep, that crazy hat is your trademark. Don't lose it :icon_bigg
