Well I might be smart, but I also have a huge capacity for
doing stupid things. For instance, yesterday I went to mail some stuff for the
first time from residence. I’ve never done that before so I didn’t actually
know where the outgoing mail slot was, but since I’m a smart guy, I thought I’d
figure it out.
Right by the door into apartment 2, there are rows of mailboxes,
and one white box with a slot in it. I put the stuff I had to mail in that
white box, thinking that was the one. After inserting the letters and checking
to make sure they got in, I went off to class, and didn’t think anything more
of it.
Today when I looked in the box, my mail was still there.
Strange I thought to myself, they come every day to do the whole mail thing. That
is when I saw what was written on the box: “RETURN MAIL”. Shit.
After trying unsuccessfully to get my hand in far enough to
each the envelopes, and in the process both looking stupid to another resident
and bruising my hand, I came up with a bright idea! Whipping out my trusty pen
(that I never use because I don’t like pens) and some juicy fruit, I
constructed what I shall call “a pen with some gum on it”. Using that I managed
to extract my mail!
Below is proof of my success, and if you go to my home page,
you can watch a video of me preparing to execute the extraction procedure!
