  • Wait... What?

    So. I just got a call from [Newspaper]. They got a call from someone I deliver to on the weekends, and, well... The caller was straight-up nuts.

    The lady in question claimed that I, along with a car full of other dudes, came up her driveway, broke her fireplace tools in half, and then laughed at her when she came out. She claims to have footage of this. There are a few holes in her story, though...

    First of all, when I'm out delivering newspapers, there isn't ROOM for many people in the car. I do deliver alongside my brother, but she was claiming there were guys in the backseat, too.

    Secondly, at the address given, they don't have a driveway. Which is kind of an important detail, no?

    And thirdly, when the woman answering the phones for [newspaper] said that she'd like to see the purported video, the bitch screamed at her and slammed the phone to hang up.

    So what is [Newspaper] going to do about this? Call me, warn me that the lady called (And isn't being believed in the slightest), and suggest that I stay out of her driveway. Which she doesn't have.

    Of course, since Saturday was Saint Patrick's Day, I'm inclined to believe that she might have gone on a bit of a bender...

        Seriously though, I don't think she has any video. If she did, she'd have no problem showing it to anyone.

        Or at least that's the way I'm looking at it.

          ...da f**k is this woman's problem? Seriously, that's something psycho right there.

          And yeah...having extra room in your car when delivering Sunday morning newspapers? As a fellow carrier, all I can say is

            Well, toward the END of the route I might have enough room... This is toward the middle of the route, though, with about 100 papers left to deliver. But seriously, why the hell would I want to stop and laugh at some lady after breaking her shit? That's time I could be using to finish the route so I can go home and sleep like the dead!

              For some reason the visual image of what the delusional woman saw has made me giggle.

                Maybe the Leprechauns did it.

                  You might want to check with your local law enforcement agency on the laws regarding recording someone (with audio and/or video) without their knowledge or consent. If crazy-non-driveway-fireplace-tool-lady calls back, that little bit of information might be an interesting way to make her go away.
