Snow melts, but angry notes are forever

Ted Dobbin reports spotting this note yesterday on the remains of a snow mound at 6th and Cambridge streets in East Cambridge. One can only hope it's been there awhile, because to think that it might have just shown up yesterday would be kind of depressing.

Only a huge
a-hole lies about spending HOURS shoveling out a spot.
One Good Thing
about winter ending is that all the passive-aggressive DB's will have to find a new way to cowardly confront people and bitch at them.
Besides being Yelpers.

Do comment forums hibernate
Do comment forums hibernate in the summer?
And here to present the opposing viewpoint ...
Ari Ofsevit spotted this note on Valentine Street, also in the People's Republic.
Geez
Who has the time to do this crap? Doesn't anyone over there have jobs? They would have to go home, type it, print it, go back, place it where it would be seen, not to mention the water proof folder.... The very definition of a loser in my world.
How about , Blow it off!
Get over yourselves! (no idea who I'm directing that at)
I'm sure the person who needs to read that is currently writing a note to leave somewhere.
Same people who post on message boards....
:)
Yeah
whatever
lbb's law
The amount of time that an internet blowhard claims to have spent shoveling his/her parking space is inversely proportional to the amount of time said blowhard claims to spend posting on internet forums.
You posted 3 times and read
You posted 3 times and read others posts. At work. Thats somehow better than someone writing a note on their own time?
Side observation
As a side observation- those 3-hole plastic paper holder thingys were really popular, back in... oh, I'd say up until maybe 2001? Betcha a cup of coffee that someone took home a box or two when their office moved. Or had them left over from a grad school project back then. Good to finally have a use for them.
Or do kids (or offices?) still have much material in 3 ring binders?
My mom keeps recipes in
My mom keeps recipes in plastic sleeves like that. I use them to collect collage materials and magazine clippings. They're quite handy.
Just got back from Staples in Rozzie Sq...
boxes of these plastic sleeves there!
"Popular back in 2001"?
"Popular"? Office supplies follow function rather than fashion, at least in my experience. Do you think people in 2001 were trying to make some kind of personal statement with those three-hole things, and that the world has since moved on?
I do!
I keep lots of my Girl Scout materials in them to keep them organized and protect the contents when we're getting crafty/messy.
Bought with troop funds rather than liberated from an employer because, you know, that whole "Honest and Fair" thing.
Patterns and Recipies
Some of us still work in hardcopy.
Hybridization
How long until we get dirty diapers shoved into passive-aggressive plastic sheet protector sleeves?
Or dog poop
for that matter.
Or soda bottles
takeout food containers, plastic bags, cigarette butts, maybe.
While I don't condone leaving the dog poop, it at least is compostable - not for use on vegetable gardens but certainly in flower beds.
