Dear So and So

[IFjane]

A very discouraged employee of the agency whose mission is "protecting human health and the environment"

I know! You work for Exxon???

EPA?

Dear mail-order clothing company (not TE)....
What posesses you to ship me one little soft t-shirt in a plastic bag, packaged inside a huge cardboard box FILLED with a ton of styrofoam peanuts!!!!!??????
What on earth are you thinking??????? That the t-shirt might BREAK????
Dear employee who answered my stern emailed complaint- please do as you said you would and pass my complaint to the Bosses.

Dear WEATHER:

If you simply HAD to kick up a fuss and create a tornado warning that had to be broadcast for the entire Dallas/Fort Worth area, couldn't you have had the common decency to wait until AFTER HOUSE WAS OVER?

To play with us this way, and play nice until the LAST TEN MINUTES and THEN lower the boom?

Not polite. Not polite at all.

Now that you've had your fun and interrupted my favorite show by wiping out the entire ending, could you just be satisfied with that and forget about actually making a tornado?

Thank you.

Grrr.

Dear Fate:

Thanks for letting me rock that chem midterm. I NEVER have been the second one to finish an exam before- usually I am in the back frantically making up the answers until the very last second! As for the only other student who finished before me, thanks for making him 1.) Very Attractive and 2.) My lab partner.

Also, thanks for convincing my supervisor to lay off the hours this week. Hopefully, after my crazy schedule of midterms and whatnot, Knotted won't have to slap me awake when I show up for my volunteer shift at her work. (Which sounds like quite the dramatic place lately!).

Dear chick at work:
my "What I'd tell you if you promised not to get mad"... I'm sorry you're still single. I think it's because you're very defensive. So afraid to look 'desperate' that maybe you fail to look interested enough? So needful of commitment (but fearful of looking like it) you give this vibe of only really wanting mr. 'right now'.
I wish I knew a nice, single guy to introduce you to, but to be honest, I think the dark shadows and phantoms in your past haunt your present in a catch-22 way. You need love and comfort to rise above them, but they cause you to chase away prospects. *sigh* *hug*

Dear Webster's:
You define "Humane" as 1 : marked by compassion, sympathy, or consideration for humans or animals
2 : characterized by or tending to broad humanistic culture : HUMANISTIC
yet in so much of life, I have never seen a more hateful and dark creature than the human. A cat will maul something to death in play, but it will not spitefully sneer, maim and mark for life, then feel better about itself for it.
the capacity that distinguishes humans has come down to something Augustine identified 1,600 years ago when he asked what "can be the purport of the injunction, know thyself? I suppose it is that the mind should reflect upon itself."
Perhaps it is our self-realization, the ability of the human to be introspective, that is the key to our internal darknesses and cruelties? Why then the mocking word 'humane'? What creature could be so cruel to a human besides another of his species?

Dear Pixies:
Where is my mind?

Dear rude Army Gateguard,
Why must you insist on giving the 2 worst options in traffic, to stop and show you my ID. Instead of allowing me to stop in line with the cars, you make me pull to the right. Then re negotiate through the early morning darkness over a quick 4 lanes to make the left. I ask you this all the time and you say it is safer. WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW... It is not...Dumb A$%.urrgghh
Or go past my turn to the cross walk and walk across 2 streets and out of the way then renegotiate myself back through traffic on a rocky road.
Well Mr. hypertensive, teeth missing, smoker guy. Hope you live long with all that.....uuggghh.
