    How can 2 packages from the same order, from the same vendor, shipped at the same time have estimated delivery days 4 days apart?!?

    Fuck you, USPS. I have shit to do, motherfuckers.
    I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.

    Shipped by different means? Priority mail vs 1st class for example?

    You're right! One is priority mail, the other is parcel select. That's fucking stupid.

    English is confusing, example #819:

    Flammable and inflammable mean exactly the same thing

    Being a word geek, I know this one.

    Inflammable is an older version, derived from inflame... so capable of being inflamed. Because in- is normally used to signify opposite, the preferred word became flammable to reduce confusion. Product labeling regularly uses old industry language; that's usually the only place you see inflammable any more. I have seen people try to differentiate the two - requiring ignition or not, but it's just old language verses new language. Language evolves...

    Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
    Now it looks as though they're here to stay
    Oh, I believe in yesterday

    Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
    There's a shadow hanging over me
    Oh, yesterday came suddenly

    Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
    I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
