I hate you. You had one job to do, deliver my NASCAR game so I would have something to do this evening. Now y'all gone and fucked that up.

Lol, just got a tracking update. It is now in Atlanta. The game apparently started right outside of Nashville, then it got moved to Kentucky, right outside of Cincinnati, now it is in Atlanta. The game only needed to go to Knoxville, TN, that's three hours away from where it started!

To be fair, they're probably delivering it way late to properly represent Denny Hamlin's 2013 season...

I feared that Joey Logano may have intervened and waylaid the delivery truck.

Go out in your car, turn left, speed up, turn left again repeat. You are now in a NASCAR simulator. It should hold you over until your game arrives.

I just ordered something from Radio Shack and was informed by their shipping confirm it was going by FedEx. I now expect it to be smashed when it gets here based on past experience.

Typically yes, but this was Amazon so I had no say in the matter.

I'm actually surprised because I've ordered from Amazon lots of times in the past, a lot of that shit coming from the same KY warehouse as your order probably, and I've always gotten it within 3 business days, even when I ordered big heavy quick struts for my car! And they were shipped for free.

Maybe it's time to join Amazon Prime? :p

Unfortunately I live in an apartment complex, and under TN law that is considered a public road for the purpose of a DUI(I interned at the DA's last summer, I'm not a drunk, really).

That's the problem, I am a prime member. I ordered it Tuesday, and it shipped Wednesday. Should be here!

I grew up in Alabama, and have been to Tennessee many times. No one will notice that on the weekend, man. Go for it.

Did you hear about the merger. FedEx and UPS are merging to form a new company.

The new entity will be known as FedUp.

I think there was rain so they had to wait it out.

I got my Land-Rover parts FedEx before I even got home (early) from work. Clearly they love me more than you.

Ahhh FedEx... Once upon a time car parts were ordered. Now these parts weren't your average parts, they were important to getting a minivan back on the road. The parts store tasked FedEx with this deed most noble, they had to deliver these parts across the country in 7 days. FedEx, being as confident as ever said that they could do this with ease.
So FedEx began their quest and informed the people who needed these parts that they would infact be there in 7 days. But FedEx had a trick up its sleeve, it would only take it to the post office and pawn it off on those poor saps. And sure enough, the package was delivered to the post office in 6 days. But, little did FedEx know, the postal service were an even lazier bunch.
The seventh day came and that lazy fuck, oops uhm a, I mean postman went out to deliver the package. But, instead of doing his job, the postman decided to have a long lunch followed by a ciesta. He returned to the post office after that refreshing nap with the package still in his van. "Oh know," he panicked, "how am I going to explain this." He pondered and thought until he came up with his best excuse yet. So he told his boss, "I could not find that house, its address was not clearly marked." And low and behold his boss bought it! But, why you may ask, did he believe that scabby excuse? Because fuck it, it was Friday and he wanted to get to happy hour.

Has everyone noticed the directional arrow created by the "Ex" in FedEx? Just an interested graphic design detail that is often missed.

I would hope so, but I assure you that someone will read your post and say,

Someone had to point it out to me a few years ago and I did a complete Keanu.

I would say that the USPS is better, but I would be biased. My dad works for the USPS in Knoxville.
