Un-Natural
FOUND by Phil and Leia
in Salt Lake City, Utah
This was found stapled to telephone poles and poster boards all around the '9th and 9th' area of Salt Lake City. This is a sort of hipster area of town, and many gay couples hang out there. One morning we were getting coffee and these photocopies were everywhere! I kept one because it was just so odd. My take on it is that some guy was left short of words in a confrontation with a lesbian lady and came back during the night to get the last word in, sort of George Costanza style.

I like this one. I like the fact that (a) the author was seemingly staying in a hotel and took the time to go around posting this strange note; and (b) that there is an upscale homo district in Salt Lake City, Utah (!).
I think it should be pointed out before anyone gets hurt or defensive that nothing on here indicates the author wasn't gay, him - or her - self. Gay men call lesbians "dykes" all the time.
Additionally, he isn't going off on her because she's gay. He's saying he doesn't think she chose the lifestyle for any good reason but because she's just crazy enough to do something she wasn't meant to do. The end about her being evil was about her personality, and he said so. Being gay isn't a personality.
As for leaving a note like that LOL, I've left a few directed at hateful, insane people who scare the sane people into silence in their presense. If he is a man, he could have hauled of and laid her on the ground. He did the level-headed, mature thing and didn't react until she went away and he calmed down. Good for him! Hope she got the messages, too!
hey, this is phil and leia of kilby, huh? I was at the show last night...
Damn, Donald Trump just won't leave Rosie alone!!!
Rosie deserved that and more. Everyone deserves a 2nd chance.
I say the lesbian had a go at him because he was driving a 4x4 or had bull bars on his car, hence the care for nature. What I don't understand is why caring about nature gives you the ability to invent a new personality.
Viking Girl, you said "If he is a man, he could have hauled of and laid her on the ground." Not as a woman? I beg to differ. I would never hit a perfect stranger, but if I were the type to feel that were necessary, I could do so regardless of my lack of penis. </feminist rant>
Bags said it all.
erin in nashville, i would just like to say that i love the use of html to end your feminist rant. i thought it was cool. i might have to use that sometime.
Folks, 9th and 9th is awesome. I live here because the gay couples keep really nice houses. My property value has skyrocketed. Has anyone seen the guy dressed in pink? What's his deal?
Erin, you go girl.
I've seen the man dressed in pink. I'm not sure what his deal is, but one day...I'd really like to talk to him.
Is it a man in a pink unitard with a pink cape on a unicycle? A guy like that just moved from my neighborhood.
Well, this fella that I have seen wears pink tights, pink skirt, pink sweater and pink shoes. I'm thinking the hair was blond, but it's been awhile since i've seen him.
a friend of mine got hit by an suv while biking recently. the lady driving the suv told my friend to be more careful ond drove away. my friend followed her and found her house. late one night she biked over to this lady's house and taped a letter very much like this one to the lady's windsheild. her letter was written in sharpie on a huge posterboard.
passive revenge is quite amusing.
You'd think, with all of the time he invested in getting his message out there, he would have ended on a stronger note than "You need to invent a new personality."
Yeah, it's a little known fact that lesbianism is right up there with vegetarianism as a 'healthy' lifestyle choice.
I actually assumed this was by a woman when reading it. I bet the "fatass butch dyke" got mad at the author for littering or something, and initially just frightened the person, who stood there quietly until the lady was gone and then stewed over the incident for hours and finally went back with these notes and put them around the area.
Yeah, and you're a homophobic bitch!
Although it has been said here that it should be pointed out this note is not about her being gay.I think that the use of the word 'resorted',the idea that her being a lesbian was a choice,the fact that the note reveals practically nothing about what happened or why the woman was in the wrong but heavily references her sexuality in a derogatory manner and also the use of the word 'unnatural'(which seems often used in arguments against gay people) gives an overall impression,to me anyway,of it being at least somewhat homphobic.It's hard to know of course,just something I thought about.By the way I'm neither hurt or defensive,although I don't really agree that pinning a note like this all over the neighborhood is necessarily that mature or level-headed though and the tone of it certainly didn't seem like a calm thought out argument,rather a personal attack type rant!.I am glad people do crazy stuff like this though,it makes the world a more interesting place! :)
p.s I love this site!
The guy in Pink is known as "Junior" by the employees of the coffee shops. The plot thickens.
i think it was a woman as well. the "ugly heart" is not something i picture a man saying.
I too think this is written by a woman. You can almost hear her voice shaking with anger and hurt ego...wonder what it was all about? Obviously, yes, she's been stewing for hours and as she is the sort of person who is unable to let go of any confrontation (real or imagined) in which she believes she came off worst, she not only writes the note but papers the neighbourhood with it. Also for a certain type of woman, "lesbian" (or words to that effect) is the worst insult they can think of. Along with "fat."
This is not a happy person. Piling of insult on top of insult (not only fat and lesbian but also "severely imbalanced", "off" and "unnatural", not to mention "of the devil!") would seem to indicate that the note-writer is the one with the dangerously explosive problem! Anger management classes seem to be in order!
i bet it was a straight woman, who was approached in the parking lot and got so offended by the very *thought* that she might herself be gay, she said something mean, and the dyke woman said something mean back... and bam. Women fight dirty. </theory>
Maybe it's just me, but I think it's kinda funny how the note to the Fatass Butch Dyke is written on Marriott paper, and best of all it was found in SLC. How perfect. :)
Geeze louise! If you can't think of a decent come-back on the spot then just slink away and lick your wounds in private. Coming back the next day and posting notes all over the city is just pathetic......then again they say revenge is a dish best served cold.....
Hmmm... seems to me it takes an "ugly-with-an-ugly-heart" to KNOW an "ugly-with-an-ugly-heart"!!
I'm not judgin' now, but...
He should have gone with "jerkstore."
Maybe they were just fighting over a parking space?
Viking Girl,
Everyone - even you - is entitled to his or her opinion. My opinion, incidentally, is that you are an imbecile.
"You Are What You Eat,"
I know more fat vegetarians and vegans than you can shake a stick (or a tofurkey drumstick) at.
Melissa,
This isn't what happens when people fight over a parking space. Haven't you ever seen "A Bronx Tale"? Oh, wait... Joe Pesci said they actually weren't fighting over a parking space. Maybe Joe Pesci is actually a fat ass butch dyke with an ugly heart. Even if he is, it wouldn't change the fact that I want him to play me when they make a movie about my life.
