Passive aggressive notes

all it took was one man. one man turned this into a thread about poop and vomit.

and that man was frank

I can't get over how much Frank looks like a young George Michael.

I bet he didn't wake his victim up before he go-go'd tho.

I'm glad you all are enjoying this thread, but can't help noticing you're not posting in the thread I started. (I'm sure this is an honest oversite.)

What happened? I am confused.

one time a homeless man pooped on my stoop but that's really the only story i have in this realm.

i was going to say i had no stories in this realm but then i remembered my parents' friends coming to stay when i was 9 and their 9 year old son pooped on our carpet about an hour after they arrived and then screamed and cried and i was so mortified about it, and for him, i couldn't so much as look at him for the whole weekend. the adults said, poor little chap, but i thought, we're not that little.

i feel that under most circumstances, anyone over the age of 5 who poops outside of a toilet is making a conscious decision to do so.

after that i became nervous every time they fed him.

Yeah, I would have to second that. (xpost)

I left my first passive aggressive note last week! It noted that my roommate had mistaken my turkish coffee for regular coffee by putting it in the regular coffee container, and she should probably not try to make it in a french press, but could use the regular coffee I'd left nearby on the counter. It also said her music taste sucks and she needs to clean more. I didn't see her until several days later, and when I did, she'd hung it on the fridge.

I still don't know if this is a passive agressive note or not, but it was really frakking weird:

I went to our local food co-op, and brought my own cloth bags, as well as purchasing one of theirs. While I was paying for my groceries, the bagger-girl placed a little square piece of paper sort of 'near' to me...I figured it must have fallen out of my wallet or something. I'm handed my groceries, vaguely noticing they used the new bag, and not mine. No biggie. As I'm walking away I look at the piece of paper. It was a handwritten note that read: "YOUR BAGS ARE DIRTY"

It was SO weird. Part of me was like, "Um, so what? I paid for the shit. they're my bags."...also, it made me think of the Mr Clean guy from the episode of Black Books, who wipes everything over with a white glove and whispers 'DIRTY' in Bernard's ear in a suggestive, semi sexual way. But...also, WHY the note? Why say anything? I wasn't buying an armload of loose fruit and vegetables. most of it was packaged, if memory serves.

Hippies are weird.

ugh. sorry for rabbitting on...the whole thing was just really really weird.

HAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAA!!!

Vege, that seems really weird -- unless maybe they don't like putting a dirty bag on the counter where everyone's food goes? But then...just wipe it with a cleaner & a rag?

who eats exposed food from the grocery store without cleaning it first, is my question

certain species of animals

deeznuts are dirty

yeah how dirty was this bag?

was it one of these:

xp wow so does that girl have a bunch of little squares with this information pre-written to hand out should a dirty bag strike?? crazy

I may be a passive aggressive professional. :-( I did it recently to colleague who remained sitting at the table even though she could CLEARLY SEE THAT I WAS SETTING THE TABLE FOR MY KID & I to eat. "Would it be possible to clear the table, we'd like to eat." tone of voice: fuck off already. God I hate it when they do this shit.

Does the table only seat one and a half people?

No, Laurel, her things occupy about 80 procent of the table. It's antique laces, so would it be soiled, it'd lose it value. Also, I'm her superior and she always moved her things in the past. I don't like pointing out the obvious. And no, we don't have another table. Or there is: in her room upstairs.

What did you think, Laurel, that I like to flop myself on the table, Roman style, and eat away?

Maybe you should dock her wages until she learns some respect.

i am going to get fired if this threads keeps up this way

xpost Oh god no, we tend to use the leather strap here in Belgium. Much cheaper.

left by my then-flatmate brother, who didn't want to clean up the cat sick. the cat is in the foreground, offended by the crassness of leaving such a message.

We got a note through our flat door, "please stop playing the drums, at 4 in the morning, on a sunday"

fair enough really, except we were'nt so much as playing them as a falling into them when drunk.

That fact might not be as reassuring to your neighbors as you'd like

I remember having this response (as a child, obviously) to the way children then my age were portrayed on television, only poop was generally not involved.

Recently I noticed that the cloth grocery bag I bring to the store is dirty as well. I didn't really think anything of it, but hell, maybe I should. Am I supposed to put it in the washer with clothes?

I have done exactly that, and the bag was never as nice again after being laundered - it got those fuzzy bumps on it. :( I am going to get a note - "Your bag is FUZZY"

Your bagger is a MUTE

maybe the bagger was trying to hit on you?

"Your bag is DIRTY and so am I. . . DIRTY FOR YOU."

aw fuck xpost ruined my sextalk joke

go ahead make it, mine was lame

no wait as a mod you should delete my post and make with the funny

it was better than mine, is the thing

"Your bag is DIRTY. DIRTY, DIRTY bag. Let me... WASH it, for you.."

that is more clean talk, dan

I said Que's was better!

"Your BAG is DIRTY, but not as DIRTY as me"

or

"I bet your OTHER BAG is even DIRTIER than THIS ONE"

"I have a DIRTY BAG, too; wanna see?"

"we can clean them together!"

"YOUR BAG over MY HEAD"

what's happening

i'm befuddled

"YOUR BAG over MY HEAD"
