and if that doesn’t make you want to suit up and dive in…

alexandra in renton, washington received this invitation from a former supervisor at a hospital. “rumors had been circulating that she and another supervisor had a personality clash, and then recently an email was distributed indicating that her position had been terminated.”

this note gets of to a roaring with start with the mention of “12 years, the first ten of them terrific,” and the “come hear all about it” seems to portend some seriously juicy trash-talking. adds alexandra: “i wouldn’t miss this party for the world.”

nick in florida was in his car one day, when he “pulled up at a light, looked to my left, and immediately started laughing.” he quickly pulled out his iphone, snapped a photo, then get stepped on the gas before daddy dearest could get out and beat the crap out of him.

meanwhile, lisa in maryland spotted this in front of a small computer store near her office.

children are such a blessing!

ah, college. you’d think living in an all-girls dorm might solve problems like this…

but then you get…this. explains hannah in pullman, washington: “i live in an all-girls dorm, and guys aren’t allowed to use the bathrooms in the hall. the rule is they are supposed to be escorted out into the lobby…which is a apparently too long of a walk for some people.”

k, so court in michigan met this guy out at a bar. he seemed harmless enough, but court knew right he wasn’t her type. still, she didn’t have the heart to give him a flat-out “no” when he asked for her number. (she couldn’t give him a fake one, either, ’cause he the did the “dial his number into the phone and call” thing.)

says court: “the first time he called, i talked to him and decided right then i definitely wasn’t interested.” by the end of the conversation, she figured he’d gotten the message…but then he kept calling. and then, texting. when she didn’t respond, court says, “i assumed he’d take the hint…but i’m not too sure he did.” um, yeah, you could say that.

caroline sends this delightful trio of holier-than-thou notes from “a rather famous university in scotland where many students and staff have illusions of grandeur.”

the first  note was spotted, caroline says, while exiting a building “where many people work late and lights are almost always burning to help us find our way through the maze of corridors. “i found these stuck to just about every light switch in the vicinity. luckily, i snapped a picture as the next day they were all crumpled into balls and thrown on the floor in what i assume was a protest against sexualising light switches.”

(”next time,” she adds, “i will make sure my light switch is fully satisfied before I leave.”)

the second note, caroline says, “is posted in a building where, due to the age of the pipes, the water is filled with lead and unsafe to drink, meaning water coolers are conveniently posted on most floors. i know we are a biology building and we have to care about the environment and blah blah blah, but while we are doing our world-saving research, would it be ok if we just had a cup of water that isn’t going to kill us?” [ed. note: yes, the note-writer has a point.]

the final note is posted next to the door leading to one of the outside smoking areas. “unfortunately,” caroline says, “it tends to have the opposite effect than intend. everytime i see it, i find myself having to sneak one in.”

moral of the story this website: even if you’re on the most solid moral/ethical/logical/legal ground, writing an snotty note about it will backfire on you more often than not. [insert maniacal emoticon]
