H@x0r! Not wanting to waste time waiting in line at the post office with the angry mob demanding $.02 stamps, I decided to fire up my usps.com account and ship from home. I entered my login and the password I'd written down for the site, and was denied access. Maybe I entered it wrong? Denied. Maybe I wrote it down wrong? Denied. Giving up, I clicked on the Forget Your Password? link. What's your favorite food? I was in! As I clicked around, preparing to fill in a shipping label, I suddenly realized that my last name is not Hoffman, and I don't live in Los Angeles. Erm... Yes, so apparently, I'm not the only one who enjoys raw fish wrapped in seaweed now and again. Oopsie. Lesson learned: From now on, instead of answering the password question with a topical answer, I'm going to respond as if I'd been asked my favorite domestic animal. What's your mother's maiden name? What's your favorite food? And to Ms. Hoffman of the west coast, my sincere apologies. I didn't realize I was such a 1337 h@x0r. posted by hilary at 5:05 PM |

First of all, that's hilarious...and a lil scary! Second of all, thank you SO much for posting this, because I was somehow unaware that postage went up. LMAO! Guess I'll have to get some new stamps, too.
That is very strange! Doesn't it correlate with your email address? I thought that is how it worked.
apparently not. i sort of forgot my log-in name, so i tried one i'd used elsewhere. apparently, ms. hoffman has the same log-in as i used somewhere else. all they did was ask me the "secret" question, and voila! i was in.
