I tip differently for the regular paper and the Sunday paper.

The Sunday paper costs more, so the paperboy should get more.

So why does this shitty thread get to stay and my shitty thread doesn't.?.?? I liked the one about the prostitute. Mine on the mailman made the most sense...tipping the hygentist or takeout guy is ridiculous and NO ONE even GETS a newspaper...!!!!

Seems to me that she just wants you to know where she lives. May be trying to give you hints! Otherwise, why would she have a self addressed card? Unless yall were friends before

Yes, seriously. In an envelop with her name and address stamped on it. Like take the card out and read it, slip a twenty in the envelop, put a stamp on it, and mail it.

In that case, I'd use the envelope to start your next bonfire.
