yeah it doesn't appear that it ran out of ink. the lettering looks quite saturated in color.

why would you state you don't want to overanalyze, and then proceed to overanalyze?

what happened? i'm confused.

Some of the people posting to the flickr pool seem to have confused passive aggressive with aggressive aggressive.

I posted this on the lookit these fucking cats thread, something about a lost cat that appeared on my neighborhood's google message group.

He wandered from 3300 ridge road. He is an inside outside cat that I
picked up as a stray from the VA. His name is Milo. I work at said
Va all weekend. If you have a family for him though, I have no
problem with him having a good home. I took him off the hill as a
tiny kitten because we have huge foxes up there and he would have been
eaten.

miss h

Thank you for taking care of milo

Did the neighbor come and get him, or did you take him to the shelter?

We've decided to keep him ourselves.
He's going to be an indoor cat now.
Peace,

ok, can you do me a favor and post pictures of him periodically. My
daughter has cried for days now about him.
Peace out

^^ neither passive nor aggressive

obi don quixote (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 26 February 2009 22:02 (fifteen years ago) link

are they confusing toilet lid w/toilet seat? Usually if I see a toilet with the lid down, I flush first figuring there's something gross the previous user wanted to hide.

candy corn for lunch and dinner (sarahel), Thursday, 26 February 2009 22:02 (fifteen years ago) link

you wouldn't want them brought back tho really

xp

goole, Thursday, 26 February 2009 22:03 (fifteen years ago) link

yah i'm imagining note-writer walked into the bathroom and saw the toilet with nice clean water, seat down, lid up, and flipped out at our poor marcus. god what a fucking nutty bitch.

goole, Thursday, 26 February 2009 22:05 (fifteen years ago) link

though they're stealing from the dryers, so presumably they are were clean

what happened? I'm confused. (sarahel), Thursday, 26 February 2009 22:05 (fifteen years ago) link

lol that paper towel one.

one month passes...

there is an apartment near me that put out some chairs for people

and a lady next door decided to gank the chairs ruining it for everyone

she forged fake passive aggressive signs with government emblems on them and put them in the building of the people that sit there, not sure what they said but some bullshit about being from the city and how the chairs were uncouth

now she has put up lawyer signs saying if the peace and quiet of the neighbourhood is offended, call this number

what a real POS

wondering what sign i should print out today and put up to combat this fuckhead

comes from hip hop, I think - I first remember hearing it in the early '90s

"I got ganked" = I was robbed

Josefa, Friday, 4 January 2019 15:12 (five years ago) link

did that come out the same time "murk" did?

Nhex, Friday, 4 January 2019 20:20 (five years ago) link

"murk" is later

i received this email from my work today:

Dear Karl Malone,

you recently received a phishing test from ______ Information Security Department and clicked on something we hoped you wouldn't. We feel that we've failed you in not preparing you enough to identify and report suspicious emails using the Phish Alert Report button. We apologize for not doing enough for you and investing in our people. As a result you are now enrolled in First time failures training campaign . You must complete this training within 5 business days from recieving this notice.

The courses you've been assigned are displayed below:

- Clark the Funtime Phisherman: Phishing with Fake Emails
- Phish Catcher Game

all SICs are in the original

Peaceful Warrior I Poser (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 10 December 2019 18:05 (four years ago) link

listen, we acknowledge that there is a huge problem with what you're doing as we apologize that we weren't able to do enough to counteract your terrible deficit of intelligence in time. although we allocate as many resources as we can to making you not mess up as bad, it is apparent that we are not doing enough for you. please take the time to review the phishing principles outlined in CLARK THE FUNTIME PHISHERMAN training and again, please accept our apologies for not doing enough to make you less bad.

Peaceful Warrior I Poser (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 10 December 2019 18:07 (four years ago) link

btw the test i stoopidly failed, like a complete idiot that thirsts for a morsel of corporate provided preparation, was an email that looked like a taco bell coupon. i clicked the unsubscribe button without thinking. sigh. i am so bad. BAD worker! i am BAD BAD BAD!!!

i would reply to that email with "APOLOGY ACCEPTED", but unfortunately the email explicitly requests that I do not reply to the sender

Peaceful Warrior I Poser (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 10 December 2019 19:21 (four years ago) link

Wowww, and that's for "unsubscribe". Good job you didn't click the "tacos please" button!

Wow, this is hilarious but also mostly creepy and dumb. Glad you're not sent to phishing summer skool but your superiors are self flagellating!

"First time failures training campaign" sounds like a group of misfits from an 80s teen movie. The end of your training is going to be a softball game against the snooty rich kid summer camp from across the lake.

Looks like someone who was hiding something in a trash can would write - they obviously don’t want anyone throwing trash in there.

You know what you have to do

This Is Not a Fugazi Trash Can

Master of Treacle, Tuesday, 31 December 2019 03:51 (four years ago) link

This situation could have been avoided by posting an OUT OF ORDER sign on the broken hand dryer, instead of putting a trash bag over it and then freaking out about people thinking it was a trash can.
