Writes Linda in Austin, Texas: “This note popped up a few months ago on my downstairs neighbor’s door, but I didn’t take a look at it until now.” But how much longer will it be before she garners an invite from this gracious host?

Haha, I love how when there are no comments this site specifically urges you to refrain from posting ‘first.’ Now that I know that I find the people that do it even more sad and pathetic.
Someone should tell the note writer that exclamation points are for emphasis, and putting one at the end of every single sentence kinda defeats the purpose. Also, why does most of the note display decent English and then the rule about the bathroom look like it was written by a foreign language student translating directly through Babelfish.com?

I like how the imperial “we” creeps into the home reference at the end of the note.

Sounds like it was written by an “Odessa” participant to me.

If you happen to have had a teenage boy, that pretty much cancels out being gracious.
If the “boys” are older than twenty the note should be just a heads up to “I will be a bitch, so don’t let me have to look at you in the morning”.

Ever notice that since Bush went home, there has been an influx of PAN submissions from Texas? Namely Austin….
Just makes me wonder…
Either that or kerry has been doing some serious networking in her new city of residence…

But you have it all wrong. I most certainly do respect your home. I respect it more than you could possibly know. It’s you I don’t respect.

Anyone else think it’s weird that an apartment would have a men’s (and presumably women’s) restroom?

You’ve already told me I must go home by 10 p.m., therefore I obviously “don’t belong” in your home, therefore I don’t have to respect your home.

I need to post that on the front door of our house. I can totally understand the sentiments (if not the English used to express them), especially since our house apparently has absolutely no sound-proofing. I can’t tell you how special it is to be woken up at 2am to the sound of somebody in the bathroom peeing.

Her kid can hardly wait until he turns 18 and can get away from mom’s endless bitching.. No fun, no eating, no watching the late show. What is a kid to do?

I’m really nervous about what kind of kids the author is raising. This is the sort of thing you address with your kids. The standing rule my parents had for us was that we were accountable for our guests. If Tom Boiarski dumped a five gallon bucket of green army guys all over my room and left, I had to clean it up. If Chad Fernandez ate my dad’s roast beef sandwich I had to make him another one. If Chuck Taylor got my sister pregnant I had to abort the baby, or marry her.
Her kids are the ones inviting the assholes in. Deal with them. Damn, I’m glad I sold my kids to those Pakistani guys.

“You are welcome to our home” does that mean we can take it?

Good News!
I’ve got a new job! I’m the “thumb fairy.”
Once a day, I’ll magically appear and give a thumb up to anyone who doesn’t yet have one.
Because, to me, you’re all great!

I’ve left notes like this, but not for kids. My BF brings his freinds over and they act like it’s a frat party. 45 years old and he’s funnel Natty Light. WTF? Then I catch him in bed with the neighbor’s daughter. She’s young, but she’s morbidly obese and sleeps with anybody for validation.
It gets out of hand everytime. One time he passed out and two of his s0-called friends snuck into my room and had their way with me. It was horrible. Two big sweaty guys, covered in body hair, Cheetos dust and English Leather aftershave. One of them leaned over and puked on my slippers halfway through.
So I put up signs. I don’t mind them disrespecting me, but I hate having to clean up after them.

There will be no more sleeping over?
Does that mean they have to sleep in the basement from now on?

I’m pretty sure the note writer is using a different dictionary than the rest of us… Welcome = do not enter + do not eat + do not sleep + do not make a mess?
Huh. Sounds like my mother-in-law’s house…
