Dear _________.
Dear Professor,

When you flush the urinal, which flushing is audible from the hallway, and then immediately appear in said hallway, it's obvious that you did not wash your hands.

You have a PhD. WASH YOUR HANDS!

Dear My Local Library -

Thank you for being here while I go through work-search Crazy. You always are helpful, have great music and literature, and beautiful architecture.

Also, no fines. You are the one debt-free zone in my life, and I lover you ferrit.

Sincerely,
LT (Unemployment Statistic 999,997)

Dear Lawn Equipment,

Yes, it's that time of year again! Time to wake you from your slumber. Please be so kind as to actually start when it's asked of you - you've had all winter off and now it's time to get to work. I understand that you're crabby, but so it the lawn - let's get together and get to work!

Sincerely,

Tired of pulling throttles

Dear users of stand-up urinals,

washing your hands after urinating doesn't make much sense. As mentioned in the "special person addressing the graduating class" opening joke*, as long as you don't pee on your hands, you don't really need to wash them. And you shouldn't be peeing on your hands.

Sincerely,

water conserving hippie

* I am not joking. That was really the opening to my graduating classes "congrats on earning your undergrad degree" - it was very weird.

Dear person who owns the Mercedes that parks in my spot every day,

The spots are assigned for a reason! Find your own spot and leave mine alone!

Dear Self:

Just because you have one and a half days left of work is no reason to sit around and do nothing.

Oh wait, maybe it is. Well, OK then.

Dear water conserving hippie,

Re: people not washing hands after urinal usage...

Trace amounts of urine on the hands is the least of my concerns when it comes to people touching their junk and not washing up afterward.

Especially
when it comes to infrequently-bathing hippies.

Sincerely,

Where There's Soap There's Hope

Dear God,

I'm not complaining or anything, but your world seems very inefficient in some areas. Anything I can do to help?

Dear girl in my Bio Class -
You have three options: 1. Learn to control your high. 2. Stop coming to class stoned as shit. 3. Just drop the fucking class already. No way in hell you're passing anyhow.

Signed,

Dear Red Delicious Apple,

I hadn't eaten one of your kind for years, but just got one for free. You still suck.

Dear Eye Doc,

I'd rather be unconscious while you do a vitrectomy on my eye.

Pretty please?

Dear debaters of hand washing,

Even people with vaginas are unlikely to get urine on their hands while peeing and wiping. Still, I see my trips to the bathroom as an excellent opportunity to prevent the spread of common viral infections in my community, by washing my hands well, with soap, whenever I visit.

My two cents,

Felix

(Viral infections such as colds and flus. Basically, washing after you pee is a way to make sure you wash your hands several times a day!)

Dear Man Lurking and Smoking by My Car,

Please stop lurking and smoking, or at least do it somewhere other than by my car.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter,

I fear I shall now be known as that gross guy who doesn't wash his hands much, and will be greeted at a distance at future meetups.

Dear Therapy Clients,

Therapy really only works if you show up. I do not have any sort of telekinetic or telepathic superpowers that allow me to your access your mind from afar, and fix your problems without your input. So you need to actually physically come to your scheduled appointments.

And if you can't actually physically come to your scheduled appointments, it would be nice if you called to tell me so. One, because I worry, because many of you are having large problems in your life that have driven you into therapy in the first place, and two, because I am not getting paid to be here and if you don't show up, I can't count that hour toward my required hours necessary to get my license, and as I'm rather tired of being an unlicensed volunteer, I would like to get those hours accumulated as quickly as possible, and waiting around for clients does not let me accomplish that goal.

So: You show up. If you are not going to show up, don't make me show up to wait around for your non-showing-up self.

Thank you for your kind attention to this matter,

Dear Stupid Consultant Whom I Hate:

Do not contact this donor means DO NOT CONTACT THIS DONOR. Emailing him is contact.

Which part of DO NOT CONTACT did you not get?

Because you can't read, I now have a pile of shit to clean up.

Dear Beloved Relatives,

You can learn how to use eBay too, there's no need to enlist me in your efforts to get rid of your stuff.

Thanks, J

P.S. No one will pay that much for your stuff. No, really. No one.

Dear Uncle,

Please stop being crazy. Money is not this important. Your whiny daughter's expectations of a big, over-the-top, way-beyond-your-means wedding is not a reason to be a dick to your sisters and your mother. Also, your wife is a hypochondriac, entitled downer.

Regards,

Dear People Upstairs,

Please stop walking so loud before 8 am. There is no reason to stomp, really.
Alternatively, lose weight.
Or get carpeting.
Or move.
Or wake up later.
Or get those slippers that have mops strings on the bottoms so you like glide around polishing your floor instead of clomping.

Thanks,

Sleepless in 3A.
