Yeah it's a very American trend i'd say, in Germany you won't see such things often.

Only Pom's and their ilk who would put an easily accessible slot right in their front door. Easy to piss through the slot of someone you don't like, or push through dog sh*t, or maybe pour through a few litres of petrol followed by a match...

Didn't you know we have protection for that? The mailman has to identifiy to open the slot, otherwise it's sets you on fire if you try opening it.

I don't have to worry about that for 2 reasons
1. you don't live here in the UK 
2. I live in a block of flats and my mailbox is on the top row
Every day, thousands of innocent plants are killed by vegetarians.

Did you read the post about the German Shepard? I'd recommend not sticking your manhood into a house without knowing which pets are there.
Now while you are pissing, smile to the camera please. You're now an internet-celeb

If you are that paranoid, then indeed, you need a gun. If anyone is up to something like that, then not having a hole in the door for letters is not going to stop them.
You light the car, wait till the owner comes out screaming, walk in the house, grab the bacon, exit through backdoor. Leave a sign on the backdoor stating that one was really impressed with the impenetrable door.

Only some places are that way. It's for efficiency (or laziness). It's much faster to drive and deliver mail than to walk it to every front door.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

It would be more efficient if they stopped delivering it. You could go fetch it yourself from the distribution point.

That's how Mexico was when I lived there.

Uhhh... no... Canada has largely the same system; a mailbox at the end of your driveway. And, I've never had anything taken from the mailbox in Canada or the US.

But Canadians are honorary 'merkins, so that example doesn't count.

When I was younger, an escaped mental patient was so easy to spot.
They'd be walking around in their pyjamas talking to themselves.
Now that might be a slacker with a hands-free mobile phone.

Since I live next to the Post Office, we don't have mailboxes, we get free PO boxes. So, I guess I can walk into the Post Office wearing my robe without looking like a mental patient, but I wouldn't really try it.

A few years back, a friend went out the back door in his bathrobe to feed the dogs. The door closed behind him and locked. Then, he heard his wife and children heading out the front door on the way to school and work. He tried to get their attention, to no avail.
As they started down the road, he threw his slipper at them in an attempt to alert them.. still nothing.
He didn't have a cell phone on him, so went to the neighbours house and asked to use her phone. He called his wife's work and left a message for her. The neighbour then informed him that her husband had left her and she was lonely.....
He decided to wait at home, in the cold (it was winter, so probably mid 30's F) for his wife.
She got the message and drove home, but couldn't stop laughing at him and still laughs about it when we mention it.

Write some code
public void SomeMethod()

bool valid = Method2();
if (valid)

Method3();
Method4();
Method5();
Method6();
}
else
{
Method7();
List<string> values = Method8();
foreach(string value in values)
{
Method8(value);
}
}
}
It's been a good day
Derp: Hey, I need to add logic to your code, can I do some refactoring?
Me: Sure Derp, just check it in when you're done
