Screaming Infidelities

April 29th, 2015 · 190 comments

Writes our submitter in Iowa: “This anonymous note from our “disappointed neighbors” was taped to an iron bench in front of our house – on Earth Day, no less!”

Dear Homeowner,   We, your neighbors, cannot help but notice the obscene amounts of dandelions on your lawn. Do you not realize how terrible it looks? Do you not realize the effect this has on community pride, not to mention property values? A few dandelions - sure. But your lawn is an absolute embarassment. you are screaming, 'I don't care how my property looks' with every passing day. We all agree that your lawn is currently the absolute worst lawn in blocks, and urge you to seriously evaluate your lawn care priorities. Signed, Your deeply disappointed neighbors

Writes our anonymous submitter: “After a year of passive-aggressive and straight-up rude behavior, my roommate left me this card to sum up just how wonderful of a person she is. Safe to say we won’t be bunking together again next year?”

'Thank you' from the bottom of my heart

Spotted by Tom in Newcastle, UK. I had to look closely at the markings to make sure it wasn’t the same fat cat Sam spotted in London a few years back.

Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Biblio-bully

April 2nd, 2015 · 59 comments

Our submitter, Lee, says he recently went to the library in search of some subjects for drawing practice. While browsing the botany section, he flipped open a particularly old and musty book when suddenly…OH, SNAP!

You have no life b/c you are at a library reading a leaf book.

Bees?

March 27th, 2015 · 51 comments

Says our submitter in Melbourne: “This one is just classic — even the mistakes are soooo typical!”

Dear Plant Theif, [sic] you may like to know that the plants in this garden are protected by a special flock of bees who will hunt down the nector [sic] of their stolen flowers, who will feed on your bits until they are returned to the garden.
