This makes me all the more grateful that my apartment complex bans signs and banners like this, although they do allow them on balconies if they are temporary - for example, a baby shower or graduation party.
Dremel?
Bastards. Have you tried a product like Goo Gone? I’ve had good luck using it on stickers nothing else would remove.
Well, like I say, I don’t really wanna be fuckin’ with the mail boxes. Especially with power tools.
I went down tonight, and most of the stickers had been Sharpied over, but you know what they are.
I got a bunch of bad news in the mail…
This is probably the right answer ( and environmentally correct).
I was thinking in the more basic sense: What can aluminum survive that paper/plastic cannot? My idea was to apply a propane torch… but I don’t know if it would create poisonous fumes or catch fire and drip flaming globs of plastic on the ground.
The upside, aside that it would be easy to do, is that you might get to see Trump’s face
slowly melt and burn into molten goo…
I was wondering this too.
It’s interesting. My Wife and I both work for county governments. Used to be the same county, but different departments, now it’s different counties.
Boy oh boy do the offices she has worked in gossip, and talk about politics too.
In my office we just don’t. It’s not a rule, it’s professionalism. We’re not a bunch of stodgy people, and there is plenty of joking around, but we really don’t talk politics.
Only three homes on our private road. Coincidentally we are all older liberals, the only blue in a rural sea of red.
Where can I get some of these stickers?
I’m actually not sure about the environmentally correct part; it’s going to grind whatever the stickers are made of into tiny little bits, most of which are probably going to escape cleanup attempts. And I suspect that what they’re made of is at least partly some sort of plastic. A layer of tiny little plastic bits is already going to be much of our impact on the geological record, and those stickers won’t add much to it, but cumulatively those bits do damage.
Sort of this. Don’t waste time with a hairdryer, get a heat gun. I’ve never met a PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) that can resist.
Don’t have a long-enough extension cord? There are propane-powered tools that are used for paint scraping.
Don’t try this on a wooden mailbox.

How much does a mailbox cost? Can you just paint the darn thing?
We are on a county dedicated ‘road’ we have one neighbor that is becoming full time.
When I first met them, I discovered they are from TX. Warning bells went off in my head.
But they are as unhappy with Trump as we are (read despises him). We have each other over for dinner and help each other out.
We live right on the county line between a very red county, and a very blue one. It’s… interesting.
One thing to consider: if you do remove this sticker, and you do a nice job of it, these inbreds might very well consider it a dare (to do it again).
I’m sorry.
Shit. Just discovered that one of the County Commissioners re-elected in the red county believes in ‘Chem’ trails. I’m not religious, but god help us all.
These are USPS community boxes (owned by the Gov), about a half mile down the road. So, out of reach, and out of touch.
Two of them, about the size of a dishwasher, on stands, with about 12 individual locked spaces each.
Will the USPS clean or replace them?
Thin film of oil or grease.
Dammit, I think you’re going to have to move.
That’s a whole different kettle 'o fish. I thought you where talking about your basic rural mailbox that folks have at the end of their driveway.
Likely posted elsewhere, but deserving a crossposting here.
(thought it’d be paywalled, but lucked out - hopefully the same for others)
Per the OP title, some isolated (well, online for now) shit:
I could quote some more chirps if requested for those hitting a paywall.
If only 99% of all of it turns out to chirping - not putting my money on that, though.
