About 10 mins ago I got an email explaining that my package would be delayed. 🙄

Does it seem like we all need to have a chat with AI and explain the meaning of time, early and late? 🙄
I can only assume our packages are on the same truck and its getting 'close' to my house, then it turns and goes closer to yours???
Another pendulum? 🤣
 
I have a eBay order coming, it was scheduled to arrive tomorrow the 22nd. Then I get an email saying it'll arrive earlier than expected on Monday the 24th. That's interesting math right there. 🤔
maybe they went to public school in california. they'll give you a diploma for those kinds of skills.

I'm sure they are overwhelmed, but USPS has really just stopped trying, same with Amazon. I ordered a toy for the kiddo from Amazon and they straight up sent me an incorrect item, energy drinks 🙄. The annoying part is that I have to take the time to return something I didn't even order. It's 2025, you'd think there would be better quality checks in place...oh well.

All that said, I really hope Amazon doesn't mess up and will have my new Fkysky GT3B tomorrow 🤞

Roommate ordered a carburetor for his Rovan off of eBay. This massive package arrived a week or so later and I thought he had just ordered something else. He opened it, confused because he hadn't ordered anything that big and it was a fuel tank for a 1939 new holland tractor. I'm not even kidding... The seller on eBay got that and what is essentially a chainsaw carb mixed up 😂

Made for a really good laugh, but goes to show how rushed the shipping process can be everywhere. I'm sure the guy who ordered a fuel tank and got the notification, "delivered and placed inside resident's mailbox" probably didn't laugh as hard as we did.
 
Bandit VXL
Rustler VXL Pro
And Bigfoot 2wd

On Jenny's RC is listed as discontinued and only like 1 to 3 parts available
Nice. Just as I get back to researching my Bandit no-prep build.

I got an air compressor 'delivered to customer's mailbox' once. 🙄
I ASSURE YOU... no mailperson was in my driveway with tin snips and a rivet gun so... 🤣

Most of the Bandit parts are the same as the Drag Slash/Mustang...

Yes, I know. I'm not using any Traxxas parts on it anyway 😉

I was being sarcastic lol
 
We got a new landlord a couple months ago, and I've been trying to be patient but he's a complete idiot. He'll get mad when everyone doesn't move their cars yet doesn't give us any sort of warning ahead of time. Sometimes he'll plow at like 3am and wakes the entire building up. That is all for my rant for the day. :)
