There once was a man from Nantucket.
When his package was late he said “F*$K it.
I’ll get in myself.
Its there on the shelf.
The UPS guys can suck it.

Nantucket residents can afford any cost.

Never been to Nantucket. from pics I’ve seen, it looks nice.

Anyone vouch for what’s it like there? Is it overly expensive to visit? I’m guessing that being on an island, it is. Are the residents obnoxious former Manhattanites or Massholes?

It can be expensive as most destination resort type towns are. But not everything and everywhere. I like MV better, more to do and a larger Island. As far as the people, MV is full of MA liberals, Nantucket similar.

Caliph Baraq has a mansion there that he’s only uses occasionally. Shoot him a message on Tweater and maybe you can get a good deal on a rental.

Gosh, I guess you’ll just have to be dysfunctional then. 😏

Appears the current incompetency is fairly widespread.

I thought Barry was a Martha’s Vineyard kind of guy.

Good point, but still a nice location. Grab a few weeks vacay before climate induced sea rise overwhelms it.

Leave a truck or trucks there and send over the package by boat. I am sure UPS can figure it out.
