ups is brown for a reason

I am still wait­ing to receive my Nexus 7,  and cur­rently find myself in the midst of a full-on,  Ground­hog Day– like ship­ping clus­ter f*ck by UPS.

I think the real rea­son that UPS’s cor­po­rate color is brown is because they are SHITTY! What can brown do for me? Stop blow­ing smoke up my ass and find and deliver my fug­gin’ package.

I will post the full story once I can find my way out of this night­mare sequence.

UPDATEFINALLY!

One too many force closes, ran­dom restarts, and screen freezes, led me to com­pletely snap on my Droid X tonight.

In one swift and deci­sive action, I destroyed my Droid X. Well, destroyed is not quite accu­rate. In spite of a ter­ri­bly cracked screen, the phone still works. Nev­er­the­less, it’s dead to me. I felt bad for not con­trol­ling my [mount­ing] frus­tra­tion. That sor­row, how­ever, lasted for about 12 whole sec­onds, but I’m over it…and the Droid X.

Clearly, I wouldn’t rec­om­mend that you smash your smart­phone, screen down, into a quartz coun­ter­top; but I wouldn’t judge you if you did. I have no idea what I am going to do about replac­ing my phone. For the time being, I am going to port my num­ber to an old Black­berry that I have in the house.
