1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I did too :shrug:

 

Our mailman won't deliver the mail if a vehicle is parked within 12ft of the mailbox. They'll park, get out and put a notice on your door about it but won't bother to bring the mail with them.

 

You need to pull some charm on them, then they'll be your buddies even

 

maybe, this apparently has been going on around here for years according to the neighbors so I think we just have bitter mail deliverers. Some dumb rule about being in a rural delivery zone (we are far from rural lol), they are supposed to have easy drive up/drive out access to the mailbox. I guess in case a bear chases them or something I dunno

 

man lately I've been getting wicked headaches midway through the day, Advil hardly touches it. No idea what it is, maybe I need to start wearing blue light glasses at the computer again. Stopped a couple years ago

 

Package just arrived, thanks @Kwikvette ! Everything is perfect per usual and thanks for the extras! That is gonna make life easier Hopefully gonna knock it out this weekend so I can get back to the stool!

 

Ours is on the edge of our looped driveway, so it's not like it's much of a detour to get to, and there are never vehicles in the way.

 

Nope. Something going on?

 

EMT and truck were nut to butt in front of me; no lights but figured they were going somewhere

They were in front of me a good few miles coming from Kingsburg

But you already know everyone flies down the 99

 

Hell yeah!

I had to check this morning cause I was like man...no delivery yet? The stiffeners that went out east got delivered before your parts and they were sent together

Glad the extra parts can help.

 

Does your monitor have such a setting? Some do so it's much easier on the eyes

 

It might...I keep the brightness pretty low but even doing that can skew how I'm able to effectively edit photos and videos for color and such. If the monitor adjustment adds like a yellow filter to cancel out the blue light that would be bad for editing unfortunately. I had to get used to it to a degree with the blue light glasses, partly why I stopped using them actually

 

We went from the bears up in Tahoe shitting in our yard to the wild horses down in Reno shitting in our yard.

 

@Wulf

Are you signed up for Insignia?

The OG Xbox Live replacement?

 

So strange. My neighborhood they park on the end of the block then walk all the way down and back on the other side with everyones mail. They hop back in and drive to the end of the next block. Only time they will stop near your house is if they have packages

 

I am surprised your neighborhood doesn't have cluster boxes. I think they do it up here mainly because they don't want mail careers walking on icy sidewalks in the winter.

 

Any cool prime day finds?

 

@eon_blue

Will you join in on the chaos?

LT Dad Meet the weekend after next

 

That’s what they did in our old neighborhood too. Something about the usps zone we are in now mandates that they leave their trucks as little as possible, mail boxes have to remain accessible

 

I snagged the gearwrench stubby ratcheting wrench set for $35 before it sold out
