How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Passive Aggressive Letters…with love

in Uncategorized on 11/04/11

Yes it is that time again.  Time get some things off my chest and bring back the Passive Aggressive Letters…with love.

Dear Dude Parked in the Bus Zone,

Seriously?  Who do you think you are?  Are you so important that you think you can hold up an entire bus load of children while you “dash” into the school to get your one child.  Rude.  Oh, and when the bus driver honks at you and asks you to move your car.  The correct response is not to give him the “1 minute” sign.  It’s to MOVE YOUR CAR!  Sigh.  Some people.

Signed,

Will People Ever Stop Surprising Me?

Dear Tim Horton’s Customer,

At the Tim Horton’s coffee shop, there is a certain protocol one must follow.  It is quite simple really.  When you walk in the door, you go and get in line.  You line up at the BACK of the line.   You do not wave your skinny Lululemon clad ass and think this is somehow a pass to the front.  I for one am unimpressed. Okay I was a little bit impressed, but not enough to let you get your coffee before me and the 70 year old gent who held the door open for me.

Signed,

Yep, People Can Still Surprise Me

      Ah, the passive-aggressive letter. What a wonderful way to start the day! Thanks for the chuckle!

      Yes, I was thinking what Secret Mom was thinking so I’ll say it again – Rude people suck. And good for you for not yelling at them. I’m getting old and cranky and I’m starting to say things to these kinda RUDE people. 🙂

      I always love these letters. I wish….like a huge wish that those who needed them could actually read them!!!

      And I really should really edit my comments BEFORE publishing them…

      Dear Passive Aggressive Letter Writer,

      You are just too funny, almost beyond words. You really should really publish a book of Passive Aggressive Letters With Love.

      Signed,

      Yup, You Still Make Me Laugh

      I have such a difficult time biting my tongue in situations like these! If you had restraint, good for you. 🙂 Being slight of foot and providing a stumbling block never hurt anyone though…just sayin’….
      Found you as a commenter on another blog. Happy Saturday!

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
