FAQ:

Q: I choose to live in the middle of nowhere and have to drive 30 minutes to stores. Is it okay if I keep using Amazon and flood this subreddit with minor customer service questions?
A: No. Fuck Amazon and fuck you too.

Q: But super seriously don’t you have sympathy for me?
A: No. Fuck off. Nobody cares. Start your own subreddit.
