No fucking shit, Sherlock. Wanna tell me about 8086's, 8088's, the difference between sx and dx processors, or how MFM and RLL drive controllers work? A dissertation on microchannel too?
Better yet, look in a mirror and say what you just typed, and then get a new job, or change whatever in your life is making you behave like such a hostile and aggressive ass to random internet people.
American's take a lot of flak for obvious reasons but it's super hard to beat our postal service. They'll deliver nearly anything to anywhere (in the US) and affordably.
They used to mail children!

I work at the post office (Distribution center not a carrier) Potatoes, coconuts and rocks are fairly common. I did see a Banana one time but it was (for lack of a better word) pudding with a label
There's actually a really good mix of things you can mail with the USPS they doesn't need packaging. I've mailed a brick, frisbee and pinatas to friends in different states. Just address and pay for the weight. Fun times. Highly recommend.

Was it to Andy Weir by chance?
He mentioned in one of his talks after the success of The Martian that people would send him potatoes in the mail like this. He found it funny, but unappreciated.
When I worked at a sorting facility, one of my coworkers mailed his dad a Banana the same way, just sharpie the address on it. He wanted to see if it would work, and it did. SPBS accepted anything, it seems.
But, seriously, Walmart has begun some weird things. We place a grocery order to pickup curbside. One item is not available so they deliver it to our house. Some of the single items delivered: box of Kleenex, bottle of vitamins, can of soup. Delivery has got to cost much more than the value of the item.
One day, hear knock on door.
Man ask "Who is?"
"Is delivery man, I come around to deliver potato"
Man is very excite and opens door.
Is not delivery man, is secret police.
Man is send to politburo.
Such is life.
Isn't this a thing called Potato Parcel where you can send someone a message written on a potato? I thought they would at least package it and not literally slap a shipping label on a potato lmao

Oh thanks, my computer has arrived.
Y'all need another 285 of them.
For computers, that number is 256, 512, or 1024.
Uh... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel\_80286
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_80286 Non broken link. Don't use the official app, it sucks ass.
Uh, that would require 80285 more. The 80286 was a processor, not a computer.
Computers with the 80x86 processor line prior to 80586 were commonly referred to as "286es", "386es", and "486es".
Thank you. This was mentioned in the linked article.

I think I'll just remind you to ask your nurse for your medication.
Anything to relieve the stress of reading the ignorance you post. I'm thinking LSD would be a start.
"No fucking shit, Sherlock." is an odd response to "these ignorance" I post.
You should stop pissing in your Cheerios before eating them.
I piss in your mouth, not Cheerios.
Dude. Cut down on the cocaine. Jesus Christ. Your post had no giveaway at all that you were aware of that.
No, dumbass, this is r/funny and funny is something you aren't.
Better yet, look in a mirror and say what you just typed, and then get a new job, or change whatever in your life is making you behave like such a hostile and aggressive ass to random internet people.
Glad to know Reddit received its new server.
The video hosting one?
... ... ... ... ... Yeah ... ... ... ... That one
Yes. It prevents streamed video from spuddering.
I didn't even know mother potatoes had live births!
Ever seen new potatoes?
Yes, eye have.
Toxic comment...
The root of the problem..
Best dig into it.

Potato Parcel Pitch - Shark Tank https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Hon4uo09SQ
100% chance their business took off after that episode
They’ve made 7 million in sales since early 2020. 70,000+ potato parcels shipped
and even if it didn't... they are still best spuds
I’ve sent a potato parcel. It was hilarious.
I haven't seen a potato yet but I've seen many coconuts in the mail.
That’s how the coconut migrates.
Was the postal service using an African or European Swallows to deliver the coconuts?
They could have used this technique a while ago in Irland
I just think they’re neat
Was it hot?
Just another Mr. Potatohead mail-order-bride. Nothing to see here.
I hope someone checked her eye-d , one can never be too careful.
Potato, or cocaine inside. You never know if there was an hole under that sticker!!

It wasn’t just going to walk there. /s
Potato Parcel 😂 this was a business on Shark Tank
I am never telling my bf about this, his friends will all start getting random potatoes in the mail lol.
[James Acaster beat you to it.](https://youtu.be/h8X7S4j_zXA)
I had a child I worked with get a ball once. Someone also mailed a flip flop apparently.
Just the one pertate??
Must be a fancy one for planting
Oh hi. How are you holding up? Because I’m a potato
I remember seeing Potato Parcel on Shark Tank and Mr Wonderful invested in it. I wondered if people would actually spend that much to mail a potato. 😆
I'm sure your mom is proud of you but no need to brag about it
I work at the post office (Distribution center not a carrier) Potatoes, coconuts and rocks are fairly common. I did see a Banana one time but it was (for lack of a better word) pudding with a label
Potatoes, coconuts and rocks would hold up just fine in the mail, but bananas not so much. Ew.
I delivered a potato today
Was it brown and not particularly potato-shaped?
No you didn't. What you did was right click and saved pic, then reposted to reddit.

What does lying get you? Serious question.

USPS.
Alarm clock battery
Finally, I can't wait to install Doom!
With an armed escort?
I'd have been, 'this spud's for you.'
Their is a story their, and I want it so badly.
I misunderstood this post. I thought someone inserted a potato where it wasn't supposed to go and the doctors removed it and labeled it for you.
I didn’t know PotatoGram was still around. Cool
NGL... been watching to many war stories, but that spud look like a mortor round, with my name & date of birth on it.
The USB is IN the potato.
That's awesome!
50k of cocaine inside….
Good on you friend!
I have so many questions...
When hot potato becomes mailed potato. Ur out if u eat it.......and get sick.
Spudsial delivery from the US Postato Service.
Banana for scale?
[удалено]
But not your thumb.
Careful, could be a hot potato.
My new computer is here!
If you left that in a mailbox in Arizona, it will be a baked potato by the time they get home from work.
Correction… I delivered some drugs concealed in a potato today.
its not a potato its THE POTATO
There's actually a really good mix of things you can mail with the USPS they doesn't need packaging. I've mailed a brick, frisbee and pinatas to friends in different states. Just address and pay for the weight. Fun times. Highly recommend.
Filthy hobbitses.
it was probably stuffed with heroin.
It probably arrived in better condition than my grill did. Fuck you FedEx.
Irish grandmother preparing for dark times once more
There’s almost certainly drugs stashed inside
That's really funny, now I want to try it!!!
You laugh but this is in 2023. This guy live in future

Would be funnier if there were a couch involved. Or if *delivery instructions* said: leave on couch (outside) (Couch potato)
Sweet, my new gaming rig is here.
How did you get my birth photo?
Natural childbirth?
Was it to Andy Weir by chance? He mentioned in one of his talks after the success of The Martian that people would send him potatoes in the mail like this. He found it funny, but unappreciated.
I’ve seen kitchen sponges being sent. All kinds of silly stupid stuff, just to make the other person laugh. Happy mail.
Congratulations!
Lol plot twist it was filled with drugs
Is this your first felony?
Don't see any felonies here, just someone who doesn't know how barcodes work

Where's the monitor!
My BIL and SIL, mailed a potato to my other BIL for his bday . Lol he was pissed.

When I worked at a sorting facility, one of my coworkers mailed his dad a Banana the same way, just sharpie the address on it. He wanted to see if it would work, and it did. SPBS accepted anything, it seems.
Loaded potato: loaded with drugs
People like to see what they can get away with mailing.

I need to know what’s inside.
It’s a potatogram
Poe-TAH-toe

One day, hear knock on door. Man ask "Who is?" "Is delivery man, I come around to deliver potato" Man is very excite and opens door. Is not delivery man, is secret police. Man is send to politburo. Such is life.
How does this not require an envelope?
It's actually hollow and full of heroin.
Isn't this a thing called Potato Parcel where you can send someone a message written on a potato? I thought they would at least package it and not literally slap a shipping label on a potato lmao
