Today, it's my best friend's birthday. It's also the first year I've had her gift purchased, wrapped and mailed on time. The post office lost the parcel. FML

When you file the insurance claim, tell them you got your friend an original Picasso, a gold ingot, unicorn semen and the secret recipe for Coke.

Yeah 3x the cost.. And FYI, depending on where its going, post office delivers fed ex mail

I suppose we should trust you, since you are the post man.

The post office is really going down the shitter

No one is perfect. The post office does pretty good considering how much they do ship out and stuff.

Post office loses packages all the time. Should have mailed it through fed ex :p

Send the post office a bomb with a note attached saying, 'next time don't loose my damn package'.

And then get arrested. Solid plan!

Why would OP get arrested for shipping a box through federal express? I don't think it's illegal to do that.

Sigh. My comment posted on the wrong thread. There was a comment when this FML was first posted that said something about a bomb threat to the post office; looks like it was removed and my comment got screwed up.

That sucks, OP, I'm sorry that happened. I'm sure she'll understand though, since she's your best friend. Maybe you can send her a 5 or 10 dollar gift card for coffee or something- "I'm sorry your gift got lost, want some coffee while they try to find it?" I like your name, though. Murphy's Law indeed.

Does this best friend live on the same city as you do? If so, you ought to have just hand delivered it, and get an awesome birthday cake tasting. But if not, you ought to have known Murphy's law. Oops, didn't see above comments

perdix- completely off topic, but on an old, random FML, you said you would marry snickerdoodles when she's old enough. Well...

She quit FML, so that ruined it for me. We also had a big philosophical disagreement. She said she was bisexual, yet wanted to get married to a man and be faithful to him. To me, that didn't add up.
