Taking Undue Credit
Is it just me or is the current commercial for the United States Postal Service the stupidest thing they have done in a long time? It shows a high school student opening a college acceptance letter and then claims that the next four years are courtesy of the United States Postal Service. Come on! The postman delivered the letter. That's it. I'm sure that makes all the difference in the world whether or not someone is accepted to college. It's not as if the mailman took the SAT or is paying for the tuition.
If the geniuses at the USPS want to claim credit for all of the good news they deliver, why shouldn't they receive the blame for all of the bad news and bills that are put into our mailboxes? That makes just as much sense as their idiotic commercial.
