So he decided this year to buy these massive tricycles for his nieces and nephews, Right, Scary.

Speaker 3

Yeah, I was out of town and I couldn't make it out to see them with the rest of my family. Said ordered these bikes online and I sent them to my parents' house without telling them that these big boxes were going to be arriving. So I had just called my father to break the news about what I did. He got very angry. He told me that the to call tooids us and canceled the shipment. So that's where the phone tap picks up. He's already told you to

cancel the shipment. Yeah, he was to cancel Christmas for your n yeah. So Now, now this is me calling my father back here, and this is where the story picks up.

Father Reacts To Huge Gift Delivery

Speaker 2

Speaker 4

Ill Dad.

Speaker 5

Yeah, so I called toys r Us right.

Speaker 4

The lady told me that there's there's no way that they can reverse it. They actually sent it out yesterday, and that it's too late. So the three bikes are on the way to the house. Who's going to be home tomorrow between one and three?

Speaker 5

What if, Mommy says, if we don't accept them, what if I don't want them? I tell them I don't want them.

Speaker 4

You're gonna refuse shipment?

Speaker 5

Yeah, I'll tell them. I didn't know ader these things. Why would you?

Speaker 4

I don't understand. Wh would you do that?

Speaker 5

Look, they don't live around the corner here, What do you think they're down the block here?

Speaker 4

Why I figured that you yesterday?

Speaker 5

What are you figuring? You don't you know? Anthony? You got your own life going on here. That's fine, But when you won't make these things and you don't talk to anybody, you gotta call us and let us know. You just don't take it upon yourself to say to the house, what am I gonna do with these things? If they're big boxes?

Speaker 4

Yeah, I know, but I was at the time. What donu't you know?

Speaker 5

I was there? How often do I? God? I got I paid them weekly visits.

Speaker 4

I just thought that there would be a greater chance that you would see them before.

Speaker 5

Oh really, oh really?

Speaker 4

Yeah?

Speaker 5

And what are I doing the meantime with these boxes?

Speaker 4

I thought that you would put them in storage in the house.

Speaker 5

Yeah, we were in the house.

I'm gonna I got in order, gonna be coming in a plane. I'm gonna be building up there next time. Don't do anything unless you talk to us, unless you want to take a trip out there when you can make it. That's it. Other than that, don't don't do anything without us knowing about it. That's all I'm telling you.

Because the easiest thing is to send them a gifts it to forget a check, money that they could put in the bank that they would have more use for than these freaking bikes. And when they got bikes already, and they got toys, and they got this and they got that.

Speaker 4

It says each box is seventy five by sixty three.
