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...
Aw. How sad. I wonder if she ever got those jeans back. Probably not since the person who put this note on Found didn't put it back or anything. What a rotten thing to do.
What goes around, comes around to bite you in the ass!
The cynic in me says: "my best friend who died last year" is a nice touch...sometimes lying comes around to bite you in the ass, too!
here's a question. Why would you wear dead people's clothing?
i think the author of this note made up the part about her dead best friend, in hopes that it would make the thief more likely to give her the clothes back. i would toatlly do something like that if this happened to me.
There is nothing wrong with wearing dead people's clothes. My best friend passed away a couple of months ago and wearing her jacket makes me feel better.
Does that note say "Warren"? Thats funny because thats my nickname after Warren Beaty.. that what it made me think of.
It sucks that she had that clothing stolen.
sounds like a broke college student who lost their only jeans that still fit them from the time before the onset of the "freshman fifteen"
That poor thing, Having clothes stolen really is the pits.
god, i think i would search out and punch whoever did this to me.
I think I'd stop every woman I see and ask accusingly, "Are those my jeans? Take them off and show me the label!" Cool way to score, eh?
why would you wear a dead person's clothes?
Sounds like somebody hasn't bought clothes from a thrift store
If this person actually did inherit those jeans from a dead friend, this find is really sad. Getting your clothes stolen sucks.
"I hope you do the not-rotten thing"
I just love this line.
I once had all my clothes stolen from a dryer in a laundromat in Upstate NY. and yep, it really DOES suck.
Let's hope she at least was able to give the theif a horrible skin condition through the clothes.
I learned the hard way back in the 80's that you never leave your laundry unattended in a dorm or sorority laundry room. You're basically inviting someone to take it. You take a book or homework to keep you busy while your clothes get done, to keep an eye on your stuff.
Lol! Her friend did NOT die! When my room-mate Shaunagh lost her phone in the college bar she got everyone to text her "Happy Birthday" and "Hi! The underprivledged kids present-swap is tomorrow at 3. You're so good for volunteering," and assorted other good person texts. The thief felt guilty and returned it!
That reminds of something I did...I seriously doubt those pants belonged to a deceased friend...
Someone stole my piggy bank from work, I also made up a sob story so the idiot that stole it would feel bad...I really just wanted my piggy bank back... : (
Was this a prop from "Sisterhood of the Pants" or something?
Honestly though, i hope those jeans were returned. Using graphology, i believe that they used to be her best friends' but i cant say that "she died last year" was a true statement. she either didnt die, or it wasnt last year.
Karma sounds like my mom. Wait, what?
I wonder if Karma bites your ass as hard as a tight pair of jeans do? Can you say wedgie, you horrible person?
As Jesus so sayeth: do the, uh, not-rotten thing.
Hey, it kinda sounds like a dance. The anti-Rotten Thing, if you will.
