HAHA! I just had a postal worker remove a Ronald Reagan stamp |
|
off the envelope I was mailing to Friends of John Kerry. I just assumed she'd put a generic airmail stamp on it, but was surprised to see it was a portrait stamp of the Ronnie on the envelope. I asked her why she did that and if she noticed who the envelope was addressed to? She said she didn't know if she had any other kind of stamps available, but she peeled Ronnie off the envelope and came back with a generic flag stamp and said it was the last one. I said "Thank God."
So, if Friends of John Kerry don't receive a donation that was promised, do they call back to check on the check?

1. In a way, you just ruined my day. |
|
I didn't know we even HAD Reagan stamps. Like there isn't enough shit dedicated to him as it is.

she probably didn't notice because she's probably used to just sticking on stamps all day.

3. Most Postal Workers hate Reagan |
|
He made them pay for Medicare in their paychecks even though they had their own retirement/and health insurance plans and would never need it.

I've been putting the US flag stamps on upside down for years now, so I figured the Gipper deserved the same treatment.

6. Those Reagan stamps don't adhere to the envelope. |
|
They're covered in teflon.
Plus, many people erroneously put their spit on the front of them.
