Family Friendly Rap God Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Yeah definitely! They expanded our vinyl section so it looks like we will be getting more stuff. Lucky you! On today's edition of "Lunch with the Fresh Prince", we have baked pork loin, fresh string beans and Uncle Ben's white rice. Paired with a refreshing Hawaiian Punch to wash it down.

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I'm thinking I'm going to have a good mail week this week. Depends though, my stuff from Australia might take a million years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I've got two Built to Spill test presses and a Sun Kil Moon record waiting at home for me. I haven't gotten a record in the mail for a while, so this will be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't gotten a record in the mail for a while, so this will be nice. Nice! Like I said, I ordered way too much stuff this past week for being "grounded" from buying records... I already posted in the recent purchases thread... but... I kind of went on an emo bender... The Get Up Kids - Eudora Christie Front Drive - S/T LP Knapsack - This Conversation Is Ending, Starting Right Now (Blue/200) (from AUS) Knapsack - Day Three of My New Life - (Olive/200) (from AUS) The Appleseed Cast - Two Conversations Ancient Warlocks - Ancient Warlocks (Clear w/ Obi /100) P.O.: Earth - Primitive and Deadly (Purple/Blue /500) Thinking of changing my name again. Possibly to: Worst.Username.Ever. if that will fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skadaddy Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 So, all this "records in the mail" talk has me wondering: Recent Purchases VS Solid Mail Day I know this is in no way important, but I feel like Recent Purchases is where you post things you bought at a store where Solid Mail Day is where you post things you got in the mail (online purchases, things mailed to you, etc.). Am I the only one who follows this reasoning...or even cares? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one who follows this reasoning...or even cares? I think you're probably right, but I get impatient waiting for the mail and I think Solid Mail Day is more of like..."All these records came in the mail today I'm so stoked that they all arrived at the same moment!" So I rarely ever post in solid mail day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I rarely ever post in solid mail day. I feel like that's the case for most people. The postman delivers to my office around lunchtime every day, so taking pictures of my records and posting them in the Solid Mail Day thread gives me something to do while I'm not able to play them.

I do it because it hits triple digits in Sacramento, so records on the porch don't last long. Found that out the hard way years ago. Trust me...it only takes one.

Yikes! Too hot. I live in a building, so my records either get delivered to my door inside, or they don't get delivered and I have to pick them up. Glad things slowed down for you, though sometimes that's just as bad or worse than being busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me...it only takes one. . Oooof. Not good! Luckily I get home right when the mail arrives so they are safe. But even if I didn't, I couldn't get them delivered to the grocery store I work at. Haha. It would be too weird for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad things slowed down for you, though sometimes that's just as bad or worse than being busy. I grew up in the Bay Area, so it's too hot for me too. The downside to it being slow is that I have more time to shop online for records, which sort of negates going to work in the first place. It's a vicious circle.

When I was living at our old place, we had a glass storm door for a screen door. During the summer, the postman opened the glass screen door and placed the record mailer between the front door and the glass door, essentially putting the record in a steamer with direct sunlight beating down on it. The record was sealed so it was inside the sleeve causing the entire thing to warp in every direction. It looked like a flower when I opened it. Never again.

I had to say goodbye to a close homie today. Ever since we met in 2011, he has had my back even at times when I let him down. Never left me out in these streets looking shady or broke. Was there through four exes, three apartments, two cars and countless financial decisions. It's hurts to have to let you go but our friendship has run it's course. Shoutout to my expired debit card. You're the REAL MVP!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
