John W. snapped this on Memorial Day off of I-95.
Jordan noticed that this building literally has no 13th floor.
"I found this on a box we received at work," rbowes worte on the SideBar, "my question is, if you aren't supposed to scan the barcode, what ARE you supposed to do?"
Steve Langer notes, "google maps provides this useful photo to help you get from southbound I95 to the Philadelphia airport."
"I found this while trying to login at the mentioned website," Joost Meijer writes "cancel just gave an empty screen."
"I'm only about a mile away from the nearest Sears," writes Scott S, "but Sears claims that the best way between my place and theirs is through multiple states... and then back gain."

Clearly you're not familiar with Philadelphia. You're expected to jump the divider.

And if you go one click East in streetview in Google Maps from the no-13th-floor image, you see that the freeway also has a well-defined approach for a landing from the air as well:

The barcode for "Do Not Scan" is the barcode for the box, which is only used at the box factory, and the people at the box factory do not understand any English, so they don't know not to scan it. The people who work at the fill-the-box factory understand English, so they know not to scan it, and they add the barcode for the item in the box.
Also, plenty of people still use dial-up modems. I'm going back to the Midwest at Christmas to visit both my parents and my wife's parents, and I will have dial-up connections at both places. Sigh. |
The walk to Sears, I'm sure, would be very pleasant, weather permitting. The walk home with the table saw might be a bit, y'know, difficult. |
