I'm not sure it symbolizes modern society, but it sure does symbolize Florida.... and the American gun cult.

Please tell me you're joking.

It's the headquarters that have gone rogue and ignore local offices.

I bet if you visited there you'd learn what that means.

More correctly: as a *result* of wars.

It was standard practice in those days to sell any (indigenous) prisoners taken during the wars. Most were shipped out to the Caribbean. They were not, by and large, used as slaves locally -- there were already more than enough indentured servants on hand to do the work.

This also started well before King Philip's War.

The issue is "change of address." In both cases the address changed. The fact that one address (the old street name) doesn't exist anymore is irrelevant.

Perhaps this is an issue your friend should take up with the local postmaster. (As with your issue with carriers refusing to deliver to your parents' house.)

Because they're nice.

People still use Instagram/FB?

I find that hard to believe. I've moved every 6 years, on average. I've never had a problem with the change of address. You know the US postal service will forward your mail for up to 18 months after your change-of-address?

And, of course, I actually inform my creditors when I move.

Why?

Rhode Island changed their name, btw:

It's not that big a deal, TBH.

>Just stop. Stop trying to be offended by everything. Just. Stop.

That's funny.
