One More Reason to Be Nice to Your Neighbors
Yes, I know. Sometimes I can be a real jerk.
Case in point: I saw this sign hanging in the lobby of my building this afternoon. Now, I don't know who this person is, but I know it's been about two months and she still hasn't taken the old resident's name off the mailbox and replaced it with her own. I also know that I don't like any of the new folks who live in my building. If I liked this person, I wouldn't mock her poor spelling or bad grammar. I mean, how do you misspell lost?? And if you do, wouldn't you just start over on a new piece of paper? Also, who (mis)spells "thanx" with the k? I mean, really. Use a computer, where you have the luxury of spell check. Maybe then your sign will get attention for the right reasons. I don't have this woman's "pavcel," and this sign — not to mention all the other crap I've had to deal with — doesn't make me want to help her find it.
