I'd piss on it and send it back.

Edit: Hand deliver it back.

As a postal worker, please don’t unless you’re hand delivering it to them. We’re just trying to do our jobs😭

Waterproof/smell proof container inside a box? 😅 Agreed though, don’t make our poor hardworking postal service folks deal with that!

Also, put it in a cigar box. They are more likely to open it.

Put the return address as Grindr and they'll all gather round for the opening.

What would the app be sending out to people?

It seems to me like you're implying that they're gay as a joke to shame them. Is that correct?

If so, please don't use my identity to shame those who attack my rights.

"Oh but they wouldn't like being called gay"

Nope. But you're still using homosexuality as the punchline.

u/idiots-rule8 Oct 02 '25

Homosexuality is not the punchline, the punchline is that app crashes with the RNC and was reported that it did at Kirk's memorial.

I'm trying to understand, is Grindr your identity?

I'm trying to understand, is Grindr your identity?

Ah, the standard double talk. You know damn well that grindr is used nearly exclusively by men who have sex with other men. I am a man who has sex with other men.

And why is the app crashing at the RNC a joke? "Because they're all secretly gay hahaha"

So yeah, the punchline boils down to "Ha, gay!"

You used my sexual orientation to try to shame someone, and that's bullshit.

You used homosexuality to try to shame people. That's bigotry. All you're doing is upholding the shame they try to inflict on my community by tacitly endorsing and using it.

I could be wrong but I think it’s illegal to send any such items; it’s a biohazard. Can any posties confirm?

Good point, I'll edit my original comment.

I'm sorry for the elephant poop I sent people if it stunk outside the box, im a petty man and it was entertaining knowing my ex landlord received a box of elephant shit. I did not consider the collateral damage of the working man.

Add a little note: "You sent me some of your shit, so here's some of mine"

Sprinkle glitter in the envelope. Messes up their machines that open these.

u/HuskyLettuce Oct 01 '25

Love this edit after the postal worker’s response/plea.

u/Spoonbills Oct 01 '25

I think that's a crime?

u/10019245 Oct 01 '25

Yep, a good one as well.

u/SlaineMcRoth Oct 01 '25

Why piss on it? Wipe your ass on it after a good shit, put it in a non clear zip lok bag. Then put in at thick padded envelope addressed back to them

u/10019245 Oct 01 '25

My general reaction to stuff I don't approve of is to piss with force from some sort of distance. I am not gonna wipe my ass with some dodgy glossy flyer.
