Jesus, that WAFL vision of the dude ruining his knee/leg/everything from someone diving at his leg is screwed up.

You HAVE to read this article about the guy... Way before the incident, unbelievable article.

Jaymie Graham, although he has a mis-spelled name, is an incredible guy.

There's a street the next suburb over that has a name very similar to my streets name. Whenever i get mail or parcels accidently delivered to my house that were supposed to go to the house in the other street with the same number as mine i always drive over there (it's a 3 minute drive) and hand deliver their mail. Always. It's not hard.
But when they get stuff wrongfully delivered that was meant for my house they NEVER drive over and give me my stuff. Not once. Ever. They instead take it to the post office. One time a parcel of mine went all the way back to it's country of origin before lobbing on my doorstep.
From now on these people can **** off. I'm just gonna stuff their mail in the nearest mail box without any stamps and hope it ends up as land fill somewhere. **** 'em.

I always knock on the door. I always tell them where i live and explain why there was obviously a mix up. Never even received one "thankyou".

Should leave a stool in one of their parcels then.... Pricks.

Ok, then I think you should line your hallway with their mail along with the gargoyles, for the sacrifices.

Then sacrifice them in an attempt to get blood to flow UP your walls.

Incase you were wondering, yes, i got another very late, re-directed parcel today.

I actually used to be the guy who delivered the parcels in my area. It sucked. Up at 4am, go to the sorting warehouse, get a shitload of parcels dumped in your area for you to sort into delivery order (suburb by suburb, street by street, house by house), load up the van (your own van as we were subcontractors), then go out and deliver it all.
One time i parked on a pretty steep slope and walked across the street to deliver a package. The woman in her front garden yelled "your van!!!!". I turned around to see my van rolling down the hill (i put the hand brake on but was in such a rush i forgot to put it in park). So there i was, sprinting down the hill trying to catch my rapidly accelerating van. I caught up, opened the door, and dove into the cabin, managing to somehow bring it to a halt in a ditch on the side of the road. True story.

So yeah, i was pretty much Jim Carey.

If only someone had filmed that

That job was hardcore. I only did it because i was "between jobs" and owned a Toyota Hiace. I did it for 6 months and saw two people have nervous breakdowns in that time. I truly learnt the meaning of the term "going postal". The pressure was unbelievable. THE MAIL JUST KEEPS COMING AND COMING!!!!!

I know. I laugh pretty heartily about it now and wish i could see the footage.
