btw i do blow my nose into the sink at home on occasion - using the hot water to clean off yr nose after is way more effective than a tissue and feels nice if yr all stuffed up

I remember singing in a concert at Princeton while in college; the onstage grand piano had TWO notes lying on top of it that said "Do not place ANYTHING on this piano!" I wrote "except for this note" on one of them and "except for this note and the other one" on the other.

Not really passive-aggressive, but the coffee pots have started to grow sticky notes containing this info:
1. Time and date of brew2. Type of beans & roast3. Drip setting (light, normal, or strong)

they actually stick to the coffee pot?

There was a gas station in lower michigan that we always stopped at during trips to Ann Arbor, and they always had flowers in the women's bathroom, and my friend would always take one of the flowers. Eventually the put up a sign that said "Please leave flowers for all the guests to enjoy", so she stole the flowers and the sign. I think they gave up after that.

got a hilarious essay from some curtain twitching anonymous neighbour about leaving my recycling in the wrong place last month, but my favourite was a few years ago in a unisex work toilet saying in one big chunk "PLEASE DO NOT PUT YOUR PADS IN THE TOILETS IT IS DISGUTSING THERE IS A SANIE BIN PLEASE USE IT WHOEVER DONE IT KNOW THEMSELVES SIGN MADGE"
it was a fair point, though

used to respond to pass-agg uni housemate's notes by posting random ones saying "DON'T PISS IN THE FRIGGING SINK" and shit, which at the time I thought was funny
― EMPIRE STATE HYMEN (MPx4A), Wednesday, 25 March 2009 13:38 (fifteen years ago) link
the fact that someone actually typed that out, although cute, makes me wonder how often they've distributed the same note out to other neighbours.

i got an anonymous note a few weeks back asking me to keep music down after 10pm. totally reasonable, just seemed a bit weird that the letter was anon so i don't know whether they're below, above or adjacent and it was written in a really elegant font and printed out as if they'd really thought about the presenation (may not count as pass-agg but still).

(xxpost) it's a standard template in MS Word
I suppose that is a little less awkward than having a 50-something neighbor knock on your door and request, "Next time you knockin' the boots, could you keep it down? You're scarin' the kids."

I will check in with the fellow's neighbours in a week or so and see if the lovemaking has quietened…
I used to have a noisy bed. IKEA no more! What a nightmare that was.

my ex next door neighbour used to have the squeaky bed syndrome, but i didn't dare complain because of the appalling rhythym that became apparent to anyone listening (ten seconds of fury, a minute of a break, repeated maybe twice). i didn't want him to see the pity in my eyes.

i hear them hanging out in the kitchen and watching movies sometimes, but maybe they just soundproofed the bedroom.

i find it a little creepy/weird that they referred to it as 'making love' and not just 'having sex'.

A while ago I was dating a girl who lived in a house where the soundproofing between the flats wasn't very good, and we could often hear the couple in the neighbouring flat having loud sex. So we decided to have "revenge" on them by having really loud sex too, so they'd notice how thin the walls were. I guess they took the hint, because we didn't hear much sex noises after that.
Maybe this was passive aggressive fucking?
