Part 2 in our “How to be the worst neighbor ever” series comes to us courtesy of Chris in Fort Worth, Texas.
When he first saw the note go up in his apartment complex, says Chris, “I thought it was pretty funny, but it wasn’t until the thief wrote a response that I had to take a picture.”

I’d nominate all three of these for inclusion in the encyclopedia entry for “petty office debates.”
Exhibit a) From San Francisco:
![Your mother does not work here. This is disgusting for others who use this restroom. {Response:] YOU SURE NAG LIKE MY MOTHER](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4090/4946706042_e2c0c42e87.jpg "Your mother does not work here. This is disgusting for others who use this restroom. {Response:] YOU SURE NAG LIKE MY MOTHER")
Exhibit b) From Jeron in Dallas:
![To conserve energy, please turn off the dupe deck when you are done. Tks [RESPONSE:] food for thought: it may in fact consume more energy to continually turn it off + on.](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3501/3743415137_0631709eb3.jpg "To conserve energy, please turn off the dupe deck when you are done. Tks [RESPONSE:] food for thought: it may in fact consume more energy to continually turn it off + on.")
Exhibit c) From Monterey, California:
![Covering your food keeps microwave clean. Thnx! [RESPONSE:] Please state the obvious here...](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4152/4954794738_da426574b6.jpg "Covering your food keeps microwave clean. Thnx! [RESPONSE:] Please state the obvious here...")

I don’t know what this note is really about — Shane in Dallas just said he found it on the bulletin board in his apartment building — but I know I definitely won’t be stopping by #2913 to “talk” it over.
(It just, uh, doesn’t sound like my scene.)

Our anonymous submitter in Dallas says this randomly showed up one day on the bulletin board at work with no further explanation, leaving everyone to puzzle over the notewriter’s intended motive. (To hurt? To edify? It boggles the mind!)

My favorite part of this landlord-chiropractor dispute in Brooklyn is the (professionally printed?) “tenant snuck out over the weekend” sign. How long has this landlord had that one in reserve?
Meanwhile, Dan in Dallas received this direct-mail don’t from a doc he’s dubbed “Dmitri the chiropractor.”

Jesse says he spotted this sign at a great Mongolian restaurant in the Dallas area. “They recently changed their name from Ton’s Mongolian Grill to Tao’s garden, but apparently they haven’t figured out how to spell it yet.”
