Parking Wars
FOUND by Corinna
in the school parking lot
I found this in the elementary school parking lot. I don't think this note is about this parking lot, but probably related to the apartment complex that is a couple blocks away from the school.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I have always had a fear of unknowingly taking someone else's parking space, seat, computer, et cetera.
I think foundmagazine might not be the best site for me to be viewing, as this seems to be a common theme.
ahaha! this makes me laugh. it's not like their name is written on it. but, i guess i know how they feel. it's like sitting in the same seat all year, in a class, and then one day, someone decided to mess up the status quo and sit in your seat.
Open the pod door Hal...
Honey, unless it says "Reserved" or has your apartment number on it (and many do), it's not "yours." Possession may be 9/10 of the law, but the minute you move it, you lose it.
We're not in elementary school anymore.
eminded him of his favorite movie, The Body Snatchers, so he kept it and sent it to Foun

body snatchers
wow, never thought I'd be so in step with farmer. (didn't read any comments til after I posted)
I said almost the same thing the other day when someone posted here as "knight in gale".
No way...this was definitely left by one of the teachers at the elementary school. Find another space, Bud...I have been at this one for 12 years, so there!
Actually, this does sound an awful lot like something that you might find in a school parking lot. Teachers can be unreasonably territorial.
If it's an elementary teacher, he could have also included "And stop with the outdated clothes and the combover. That's been my look for 10 years."
Once in college a couple friends and I showed early for a class and sat on the other side of the room, just to shake things up. Even the professor said it messed him up.
A parking space Coup d'etat...
Maybe it was just a really slow elementary student who has been parking there for 12 years.
While I like to park in the same spot at my office every day I would never leave a note like this if someone else parked there. Life is too short to get upset over a parking spot.
I prefer to think of it on a grander scale, an attempt to establish a connection in space and time and a suggestion that this dimension ain't big enough for the two of us.
Or maybe it was written by a 12 y.o. and left in their new sibling's crib.
find another
find another
find another fool to love you...
"This space reserved for passive aggressive paranoic of the week."
hiplainsdrifter: hopefully also a suicide note
*also, that made me laugh a couple dozen times yesterday. still laughing. thx
It does sound like something a teacher would write (especially one who's been at the same school for 12 years; we do get in a rut), but it doesn't look like an elementary school teacher's handwriting or lack of punctuation.
@ i was in the background - I was thinking that I would pull a Farmer in the Dell thing and just post that on all my posts for a while - so many of them qualify.
Move your feet, Lose your seat!
I remember growing up w/ 2 older sisters if you wanted to get that same spot on the couch back we had a rule that we had to say "My seat is Saved!" haha. sounds funny now that I basically had to bless my seat.. but of course if they didn't want to comply with my wishes, they could still take it and i'd just have to tell my dad.. "Daaaa'ad, she took my seet!"
"well did you save it?"
*fingers crossed reply* "uhm, yes, yes I did, I swear!"
@Moonshine: me too, 'cept there were six of us. "My place is reserved!" I haven't thought of that in ages...hahaha!
.....in bed
I think that tomorrow I will put a similar note on a car in the employee of the month space.
@fooch, in bed with a computer, bizarre indeed.
"No I din't! Moonshine din't call dibs! It doesn't count!"
haha.. You guys are funny.. Baby Basil & Night in Gale!!
oh, And Baby Basil.. I did too..its my seat!! *sticks tongue out* *stomps feet*
Gawdam kids- you'd better settle it, cuz if I have to come in there, I'm crackin' skulls. (opens another Lucky Lager)
Written by the PE teacher.
Unless the parking space is on your property, or is otherwise specifically reserved, you're just borrowing it! Maybe a change in scenery (like parking ten feet away) will give this person a exciting change in perspective.
You two...am I going to have to come in there? If I do, you'll be sorry!
