The UPS driver has recently decided he doesn't feel like walking the extra twenty feet to my front door and has resorted to dropping packages over by my garage (in 25° weather) where I'm unlikely to see them unless I go driving somewhere, which I don't often.

Ups always ends up doin some shit like this, when it's the same driver...mine end up cracking jokes about ordering so much and when I didn't awnser door but sitting by the window, i'd see him literally throw it...few pedals came to my door I've seen thrown. Guy I met who loaded trucks at ups said it was a game to see how crazy you can get boxes in the truck...and by that he ment chunking.

This is why I insist on insuring my repairs for my business (plus pack things with a shitload of bubblewrap/packing peanuts).
I've had people give me some bullshit line complaining about the fact that shipping is double what they paid and all I have to say is, "that's fine, but if your package shows up broken in half, I'm charging you full price to fix it again."
What sucks is that the UPS dude where my work location used to be was a great guy that always made sure to put packages in my hands, rather than just sticking it by the door, just so I'd know nothing got fucked up by him.

To point out the stupidity of the left doesn't mean it's a pass for everyone else. I didn't say "only the left do stupid shit." There seems to be this resistance to candidly admit the stupidly of the left by trying to equivocate with everyone else. It's because most young media and entertainment straddles some form of leftist thinking that more attention needs to be paid to the mishaps of the left, cause most in the left won't do it themselves and they certainly won't listen to people from the middle or right that criticize them - even when the criticisms may be valid.
It's the same thing with Islam and the unwillingness to talk about its problems by trying to say "yeah well all religions suck or are stupid." It misses the point.
You can't provide anything but a shrug emoticon. That's what we're dealing with here. As if that is a counter point.

Don't wanna muck up this thread with ideological discussions. I guess this thread's more just for unjudgemental griping. So, maybe I shouldn't've even commented.
If you'd like, we can continue the conversation in the politics thread.
(I miss very few points and if you've noticed, I use that IDK smiley all the time.)
Yeah, I read an account of Shields' experience. It was sickening. Mob mentality has no ideology.

I don't know about your idea of the term moderate or anyone else's. I would consider myself to be very far left and I am frustrated about the same stuff. I agree liberals are the problem but I don't consider liberals to be left, I consider Trump and gang to be liberals just as the media and the mainstream dems. The sad part is I've seen the place everything is in coming to for a long time.. until you can get people run shit to stop being oxymorons…

What you are seeing is a disenfranchisement and anger along with mob mentality BECAUSE of the moderate/extremist dichotomized mindset that our civilization has become.. Also you will find people are stupid. I find most of the protesting stupid. It's just wasted energy that could be used to get envoled and actually change shit. But NOOOO!!!! fucking hard work and really sticking by your beliefs, let's burn shit! yeah lets burn shit! PARTY!!!

I'd agree that this conversation belongs in the politics thread, not S/H/R/A&MI.
Politics (and related topics) pisses everyone off, but we already have a thread dedicated to talking about that, so I'd prefer that you didn't bring it over here because you're afraid of D.o.S. replying to you.
