And that's how we know this post was probably fake. Another point, in order to cram that box in, they would need to put in considerable effort. No. UPS. Driver. Is going to put this effort in.

OP's home instance is feddit.de and they said "jup" elsewhere in this thread. Mayhaps they aren't in the US?

Could be, but the mailbox is from a company in Mississippi, and it has a flag on the side, which I've been lead to believe is an American thing.

The letter also has a standard prepaid postage mark used in the USA (though I don't know how that works in other countries)

It's most likely not OPs and is just a repost.

Oh man, we already have reposters? Time to abandon Lemmy! ^/j^

Yup is US slang. I suppose in German jup would sound similar to how an American would pronounce yup.

Amazon definitely uses my mailbox and will put in an incredible effort to cram whatever it is in to keep from walking the 50 steps to my front porch. Although I've never experienced this with ups.

Now that I'm aware this is illegal...ooo, someone's in trouble.

Edit: the word "with."

Stop caring about reposts if you see a highly upvoted image. That means it's lots of people's first time seeing it.

Also this isn't reddit.

It would be lazy content if this was reddit... Don't be oblivious.

Also mildly infuriating is the way you wrote vinyl

This was reposted to reddit dozens of times.

...but now that we're here, does the counter reset? Does an old repost now become a new post? Philosoraptor wants to know.

oh fuck. very infuriating. what record was it?

I hate this image so much... All the work that got put into making that vinyl and getting it all the way to you... Just to be snapped in half a couple hundred feet from your front door :S

To be fair I don't think making a vinyl is very hard, it's basically just stamped from a mold.

It’s not necessarily new or still in print though. Depending on what you’re into finding a copy of something can be hard/expensive and then this shit happens

4

The process is time consuming. The mold needs to be redone after so many as well.

And it’s one thing if it broke by accident, but this was clearly intentional as well!

Jup 🙃 sorry maybe I chose the wrong community

I use to be an Rural Carrier Associate. Packages that don't fit in the box are suppose to get delivered to the door, if I couldn't get to your door then leave a Form 3849 (Attempted Delivery) This is just lazy TBH...

20

Even stretched the mailbox itself! What kind of monster was the delivery person?

Could've been UPS using USPS for last-mile delivery. The OP is also from feddit.de so maybe they're not in the US.

Yeah, but in the case of your first statement USPS is effecting the delivery.
