I got my thank you notes returned to me corrected in red ink by an uncle. That was always so much fun.

No, what I meant was that in an age where there are other means, there isn't really a need for Thank You notes for a CHILD's birthday present. It wasn't an engagement gift, or a wedding gift, or even a graduation gift. It was a gift for a 6 year old, who would probably be in the first grade and BARELY able to write , let alone construct a thank ... Read Moreyou note. i think it's perfectly acceptable behavior for the child to call grandma. I didn't say that the child should not have thanked his/her grandmother, of course they should thank someone for giving them a gift.
You are entitled to your opinion,and so am I and I wont respond to personal flaming. I wasn't directing my response to anyone in particular, I was just expressing MY opinion in kind. Thanks!
Anyway, my point was grandma isn't teaching that child anything except that when your upset it's ok to be mean-hearted and rude. Again, IMHO.

As you all know a fabulous Thanksgiving Dinner does not make itself. I need to ask each of you to help by bringing something to complete the meal. I truly appreciate your offers to assist with the meal preparation.
Tamara have you considered using Networked Blogs? it will automatically update all your fans when you post on the blog. plus, the link will take your fans directly to the blog as opposed to your notes section where the note isn't visible. i use networked blogs and it works well. just a thought!

Dear Neighbors!
Who is it that puts the garbage directly in front of the door? Fucking mosquito brain, does it take that much energy to throw it just around the corner, or is it that you are too lazy to go out? Too fat to pass through the door? Fuck... I hope your anus gets teeth and eat you up while you sleep.

One of many landlord love letters. She actually wrote this one while we were all home and was unable to clarify which areas of cleaning we were deficient in....except that the fridge needed to be moved to be cleaned underneath and the grout between the tiles in the living room had to be scrubbed with bleach and a toothbrush - You know - just the 'obvious' stuff....

Haha, I received a similar note just last week. All I could think after reading it was "oops, my bad" My note was a little less aggressive though, with less explanation points.

Hmmm... note how someone directly above me just assumed "damaged goods" referred to the bride, while the comment above it was actually gender neutral. Looks like someone just looking for an opportunity to complain.

Thank you James, I agree!

I mean, I get 25 of these things a day, they are driving me nuts, how do I get on these list ? Or better yet, how do I get off of these list ? I've got one right now, i've been talking to this woman who is "dying" that wants to give me 52 million, if i'll just pay the $450 dollars to get the paperwork done, well if she has 52 million dollars, why doesn't she pay for the paperwork ?

Passive-Aggressive Notes
Writes Lara in San Diego: My grandmother threw me an extremely formal bridal shower (although I am anything but formal) a few weeks before my wedding. Despite my protests, my grandmother insisted that I open each gift and read each card aloud.
When I (finally) got to my friend Colleen's card, I almost died of happiness. I looked my grandmother dead in the eye and read it, as everyone over age 60 gasped.

@Katelyn--My downstairs neighbor 10 years ago was worse, if such a thing is possible--his was the sort of alarm that was automatically set for the same time every day unless you actively turned it off. He normally got up at 5:15 AM to get ready to go to work--OK, no big problem, he turned it off pretty quickly. Except HE WOULD GO AWAY FOR LONG ...
