How frustrating! You discover that the bagels you stole the cream cheese for are, in their turn, stolen, and then you discover that it wasn’t cream cheese at all. Some days crime just doesn’t pay.

To Whomever is Dumb Enough to Leave $250 Cream in the Fridge:
I knew it was diamond cream. You’re the idiot for leaving something so expensive in the fridge. Maybe next time you’ll leave your personal, non-food stuffs at home and I won’t steal your shit.
Thanks! My skin looks FANTASTIC!

Interesting that the first writer presumes others are as stupid as her. She left diamond cream in the public fridge and it was stolen so therefore the thief must also be an idiot who mistook it for cottage cheese and ate it. Yeah.
Her mind should be donated to science. Or art. She’s crazy enough for either to make something useful out of it.

I just want to ask the first note writer if he truly feels that the community is complete without at least one thief.
It’s the people like that – the thieves, the town drunks, the spinsters – that make a community whole. He should think about that.

Dear bagel thief,
Man cannot live on bread alone. Go back and steal two days worth of cream cheese.
Dude has plenty.

Why would you put your diamond cream in a cream cheese package?
I’m sure that if it was in its own package labeled “Diamond cream”… Yeah, it ‘d still be stolen.

Isn’t it weird that in the same work place where a person can afford to buy Diamond Cream and just don’t care enough about it to leave it in the “community” fridge, there’s also someone so desperate that has to steal cream cheese from the same beforementioned fridge?
Ah… The discrepancies of today’s economy.

To whoever stole my mayonnaise:
That wasn’t mayonnaise, that was Ponds cold cream.
I can easily afford more, but you’ll be spending a fortune on toilet paper in the near future.

Why do you people think that everything in the fridge belongs to them? I’m putting a mouse trap in my lunch box. Be forewarned.
If you didn’t put it in the fridge, don’t take it out

Wow …. all I can say is WOW. Nearly speechless. That first note is one of the stupidest things I have ever laid eyes on. I feel dumber for having read it and for even commenting on it. It is almost more inane than the note from Miss Place this month.
Diamond Cream? What the hell is diamond cream? It doesn’t even remotely make sense and I would enjoy slapping you silly right now whomever you are. Really wouldn’t it have been better to just not bother?

I can’t afford diamond cream, but I have to say that cubic zirconium cream is absolutely delicious, much lower in fat, and tastes just like the real thing.

I can’t believe no one would assume there was an Arrested Development reference in the first note!
That was my first thought!

We need to get these two together… it’s like the Gatekeeper and the Keymaster
(Or keep them apart if you are the type that does not rejoice when body parts fall from the skies… whatever).

I sprinkle diamonds on all my food, for 2 reasons:
1) It’s the most balling shit you can do to your food.
2) It makes my doodie twinkle.

oi!
If it’s just normal cream cheese I would not steal it. If It’s fused with diamonds , You can bet your ass I will steal it. I mean It’s certainly less riskier than the other passion of mine. (pointing the gun at the teller…)

This note hurts my head.
Scene 1. She stored the cream cheese in refrigerator and wanted the thief to have a guilt trip(right??). Hence halfway though note she says oh it was not a cream cheese, it was a diamond cream. Now every time you want to steal the cream cheese think is’s diamond cream. Why does anybody not want to steal diamond cream? Does not make any sense!
Scene 2: She really stored diamond cream (why in the first place?) She has a title of note, “To Whoever stole my cream cheese!!” So she thought that whoever stole that cream thought it was cream cheese. Why does anybody not want to steal diamond cream? still does not make any sense!
Scene 3: She walks with tornado around her, blowing anything and everything away around her. “stiller” does not make any sense!!
There is no way out from this note.

Dear Bagel Thief/douchebag: Well, you’ve done it again. Thx. Now not only will I be face-down at my keyboard due to breakfast (NONE) — when I finally wake up (around noon or so) my complexion will look like shit and you are all glowing and fed. Well, this isn’t going unnoticed. Better watch your ass in the parking garage, cuz I “have friends”…

Maybe we could market a natural facial cream from cream cheese. We could call it Philly Phaces. You can get plain, chives, onion, blueberry, etc. It serves two purposes-it’s better than a clay mask for your pores and tastes great on Lender’s Bagel.

I think notewriter just wants diamond cream and is trying to guilt trip the theif, or other note readers, into buying her some to replace the jar they think she had. Crafty bitch.

It absolutely amazes me the lengths some women will go to in an effort to attain a ridiculously improbable standard of beauty.
Used industrial grade diamond dust infused into cold cream,
fish scales ground into lipstick (yep, that’s the real reason your lipstick has that irridescent shimmer),
and the active ingredient for Liquid Wrench (isopropyl myristate) in every “deep moisturizing” foundation, lotion and cream on the market.
I’m SO glad I was born devastatingly beautiful and don’t need to use any of that crap (surreptitiously slides her 40lb makeup kit behind the counter).

Becky – yeah, right?
ALL: The “diamond cream” note is probably a joke. Someone missing his cream cheese and trying to leave a funny tongue-in-cheek note. It certainly doesn’t look serious. Now git.
