You know you've made it in life when your zip code becomes a status symbol. People judge you based on those five little numbers. I mentioned I'm from a certain zip code, and suddenly I saw a change in attitude. It was like I went from regular person to the VIP lounge of life.
But it's not always glamorous. There's this weird rivalry between zip codes. I tried telling someone I live in a trendy area, and they responded with, "Oh, I heard people from there don't even know how to pronounce quinoa." What? Is there a quinoa pronunciation test at the entrance of my neighborhood?
I recently moved, and I had to update my zip code everywhere. You'd think it's a straightforward task, right? Not for me. I called my bank to change my address, and the conversation went like this:
Bank Rep: "Can you please provide your new zip code?"
Me: "Sure, it's 12345."
Bank Rep: "12345?"
Me: "Yes, 12345."
Bank Rep: "So, 12345?"
Me: "Exactly, 12345."
I felt like I was in a zip code remix. Are they testing my commitment to this new address? I'm just waiting for them to say, "Sorry, sir, that zip code is too mainstream. Do you have something more exclusive?
You ever notice how zip codes are like the secret codes of our neighborhoods? I mean, they're not fooling anyone. "Oh, you live in 90210? Must be nice, Mr. Fancy Pants." Meanwhile, I'm over here in 9021-0h-no, dealing with potholes big enough to have their own zip codes.
And what's with these extra digits in zip codes? I feel like I'm typing in coordinates for a secret government base. "Hold on, let me just enter my zip code plus the launch codes, and we'll get that pizza delivered."
But the real struggle is when you're on the phone with customer service, and they ask for your zip code. You confidently start rattling it off, and they respond with, "I'm sorry, can you repeat that?" Oh, sure, let me just recite the preamble to the Constitution while I'm at it. It's like they're expecting us to sing the zip code anthem.
I'm convinced there's a secret committee that decides zip codes, and their meetings are just chaos. "What about 56789 for that town with the quirky sculptures?" "No, let's reserve that for the place with the llama yoga studio."
And then there's my zip code, where the logic is lost in translation. The post office is playing Sudoku with our mail. I got my neighbor's gardening catalog, and they received my invitation to the neighborhood potluck. Now, I have to explain to Mrs. Johnson that I'm not hosting a potluck for llamas.
