When someone is video taping your idiotic behavior in public, you should know that you're about to get fired and possibly criminally charged. SMH

Iggs since you live in a white mans backyard, have you gotten any side-eye looks as stroll down your essential good trips?

No, surprisingly not. But I usually don't even seek any human interactions with strangers so maybe I'm just subconsciously blocking it out :dontknow: Also I shop mostly at Asian groceries and Walmart, where I'm usually in the majority :dontknow:

I'd assume that true idiots live in gated communities and shop at high-end groceries that I never go to? :dontknow:

TJs has the best selection of frozen food IMHO if you're sick of cooking so much in quarantine.

No way Walmart is ahead of Publix. Publix subs have a long line, but are worth the wait.

H-E-B is an American privately held supermarket chain based in San Antonio, Texas, with more than 340 stores throughout the U.S. state of Texas, as well as in northeast Mexico. The company also operates Central Market, an upscale organic and fine foods retailer.

Yeah never even heard of this one bish :dontknow: Texas and Mexico only per wiki

One of my latest Wish orders is apparently canceled without any notice. I clicked on auto customer center AKA "Ms. Chatbot" and a message "Oops failed to find the item with this ID" pops up then subsequent chatbot says "item is no longer in stock" and then tried to give me an alternative item. But then the whole system goes to chit. So I had to write an email again for the thousand times and one person told me that item is still on its way (REALLY???) but I CAN cancel since it's still not shipped (of course NOT). I wrote again and the other lady told me that she's sorry and asked me if I want a refund (DuH).

So basically, I bought an item from a scammer who had no intention of selling that item, Wish found that out and kicked the seller out of their system. But then they proceeded to not let me know anything about it UNLESS I check up on them since it's been 2 weeks since I placed my order???

Such a disastrous marketplace all around. Avoid you must.

Thanks for the feedback Iggie.

I’ll talk with my chat bots and make sure they do a better job at giving you the run around.

Phucking private shipper busted my tail light... I finally got my Hammer Strength Incline plate-loaded Chest press (waiting since mid march) paid an amazing price, probably saved a grand. Opened garage... he laid a part near the wall but it got unstable and landed on the corner of my rear tail light. Luckily Its only the cover thats busted in the corner, the mechanics are fine. Now, idiot me who opened the garage in the first place, I should have just gotten the parts up the porch..

And hes a private shipper, no company/actual service was open to ship, so had to hire one personally to get it.

I was so livid yet so weirdly happy i finally got this machine. My emotions.

Does the private shipper happen to be called "Wish.com"? Because it sounds like something Wish would do to me if they were a private shipper and I was buying the tail light from them.
