I work for a partner of UPS and I can second all of this, but the biggest thing that caught my eye was a ‘Lost and Found’... Does that shit actually exist?? If you’re shipping something, it’s neither lost nor found, you simply haven’t delivered it or returned it.

Great article. The whole story is unbelievable....

Having worked for UPS and from what I know, even if the package had shed its label, there’s a whole huge department just for that purpose. They are supposed to look up the item anyway they can, make a new label and send it on its way. Something more is going on and its UPS’ fault.

Cool beans!

From the Soviet Union, Linka.

Something funny... my kid doesn’t particularly like any modern FPS’s. She will tolerate Halo, but won’t play Borderlands, COD, or even Fallout.

Cute, Nintendo. Very cute.

LOL, that was fast!

Obviously, Linkle is the love child of Link and Tingle.

Pretty much exactly as you said. Linkle is as much Link as Lightning is Cloud. Not technically the same person, but the newer character is very much based on the former.

I’m glad they didn’t take the lazy route and go “Oh look, it’s Link, she’s exactly like Link in every way but a girl” and went with the “she’s a different character, who happens to like green, and does her own thing instead of also being Link” approach.

I hereby propose that Link is the androgenous Hero of Time, to be split into his male and female counterparts: Lonk and Lank, respectively.

yeah surely there’s better options. Even if they wanted to keep a similar sound. How about... Mink? Ok that sucks too but it’s easier to pronounce and hear than Linkle.

Linkle.
