Emotionally Clingy
FOUND by Ahja in Ann Arbor, Michican
Found on a bulletin board at a homeless shelter....
Monkey in denial
well, she does have pretty weird tastes...
so I for one think it's fully possible that Angelina Jolie was dating the homeless note writer. and she definitely seems like the emotionally clingy type(used to wear a vial of her spouses blood on a necklace)

I think the homeless guy totally made the right call here.
(I just hope the homeless guy doesn't find out she was cheating on him with brad pit)



{p.s, upon realizing that I know that much about A,Jolie, I feel ashamed of myself. I don't even like her movies! why in gods name do I know those things about her? aliens have been implanting pointless information in my brain again...)

@ Monkey

I, too, am disturbed that I know as much about Angolina. I think those nefarious promulgators of pointless information use a device called Tee-Vee. I have unplugged mine, and I won't go near it again.

Agreed that Jofofr (the homeless guy) made the right call; best to stay loose and free. Play the field.

Yeah, well, Angolina isn't nearly as clingy-needy as Keano Reeves. Sheez, that guy. You can't make a move without him paging you, calling you, asking "Baby, where are ya? Whatcha doing?" I keep telling him, Kean, you just don't have the magic anymore, look at the scripts you've been offered, it's over. But he refuses to accept reality and get a job.

People.

I'm loving this writing utensil. Beautiful, bold and smooth lettering.

I appreciate the attempted apostrophe in you're and the proper "too." Pretty impressive stuff for a homeless person.

For some reason...A.J. kind of bugs me. I love that she has the *maternal instincts* in her being, but, she always seems to be mourning someone or something. (wearing black clothes all the time for ie.)
Maybe this mystery author is her Father? John Voight?
Whatever the case...I wish Brad Pitt and his brood a wonderful life.

lars in all my forms in the nwc?
@ christina: let me understand your comment. the attempt at the proper punctuation in "you're" and the correct spelling of "too" are "impressive stuff" since the note is written by a homeless person? homeless people aren't dumb, christina; they are... homeless.

It's spelled Angelina, and there are two e's in emotionally. Just to point out that the note isn't too "proper" :) I agree with Lars, however. It saddens me that so many people view the homeless as ignorant.

There's a high chance this was not written by a homeless person as well. It may be a community bulletin board, like the one at the grocery store in my town.
+ September 14, 2008 05:11 AM +
what in in the hell
Judge not lest ye be judged, grammer in freak. It's spelled grammar and there is only one e in emotionally. Two l's, though. Are there "community" bulletin boards in homeless shelters?

Beth in a tizzy
Brad's decided that a public break up with Angie would be best. After all, she keeps insisting on adoping more foreign kids then Madonna.

I agree with Monkey. That I know even that is, frankly, scary.

Don't you think AJ must put her pants on one leg at a time like the rest of us?

In reality, aren't we all somewhat emotionally clingy? We all just want love.

Walk in the Sunshine, look out for the bright signs.
some guy had a sign on his truck once that said, "OPRAH! Call Dave!" It was stupid, but it made me laugh.

This note is marginally funny but most of these comments are moronic. (this one included.)
Happy Sunday, Found Hounds.

I know nothing about Angelina Jolie, except that her last name means "pretty" in French.

Lucky in Kentucky
That note was most definitely written with a Sharpie.

This doesn't feel genuine to me. I think this is not a find but a creation.

Hey! Someone I know, just out of the blue gave me a big Found book! Isn't that cool?!

@lars
I know this is the exact opposite of what your comment was supposed to make people think, but...
it made this random imaginary scene pop into my head "person talking to homeless guy who just corrected their grammar, and they reply "yeah well if you're so smart, how come you don't have a house?"

just a random thought that's so very WRONG that it made me chuckle.
(plus I've gone much to long without sleep, which both explains the random thoughts and why they are amusing to me)


@Gloria: yes, this "Tee-Vee" device is indeed a dangerous one. I think I will drop mine out the window. it's been just asking for that for some time now.

anna banana in my head
Maybe he's not crazy, might angelina jolie be a codename or nickname for someone in the shelter?

free me in chicago
I'm thinking she goes by Angolina Jolie... like one of those 80s celeb porn names like Sirgorny Beaver or Denzel Washmyfront, and is also living at the homless shelter. She's likely been too clingy to Jofofi (? writer) because she is a crack hoe constatnly looking for a fix. Jofofi naturally being the nice guy he is and not wanting to embarass her in front of the other homless people reading their message board says it's "emotional" and that he'll find a payphone to collect-call the homless shelter when she's off the pipe (or at some other indeterminant period of time). Poor Jofofi, i like your style though. it's obvious you still care for Angolina... with the X's and O's.

ok, i know he hasn't been in any huge blockbuster movies lately, but why is Johnny Lee Miller hanging out at a homeless shelter?
+ September 14, 2008 10:08 AM +
me in in too much tv land
"Oprah call Dave" refers to David Letterman, who tried for years to get her to appear on his show.

You know so much about her because nobody ever shuts up about her, you absorb crap about her subliminally when you flip through the channels. Just like Paris Hilton, did you know she's looking for a new BFF? They gave her show on MTV.

It doesn't matter if the person who wrote this is homeless or not. There are some mistakes in it which normally make me cringe. It still made me giggle, the wry humor of an everyday Joe, trying to lighten the mood, wherever he happened to be.

Maybe it's not big lips herself, but pretty Angola.
If I lost 4billion in oil receipts I'd be pretty clingy

(walk in the sunshine... be all of those things you're able to be.
freeme, are those actual porn star names? Hilarious! (and a little um.. impressive that you have them stored in your little databanks! ahem.)

Pushing Tin was a very good movie. And GIA was a very good movie. I can't think of any other movies with Angelina Jolie that I'd call very good. (when I saw Gia it was the first time I'd ever heard of Angelina, and I thought she really NAILED that part. Nailed the part in Pusing Tin, too- but I don't think she actually had to act in that one.)

Thanks for the explanation of the Oprah Call Dave sign. That makes sense. (I guess. can SEE a bumpersticker campaign.. but a handwritten sign in black Sharpie on 8.5 X 11" paper in the back window? Okay then.)

(Maybe that was KELSEY Grammer up there, freaking out about.. what was it again? oh who cares?)

That is all.

Smallbear in the Cave
The homeless in Ann Arbor, MI have some pretty odd delusions! Hard for me to get my bear brain around the idea of some homeless guy believing he's Brad Pitt! Around where my cave is the delusional homeless guys stick to the classics, i.e believing they're the President or God or something along those lines.

@Beth in a Tizzy "adoping more foreign kids..."
maybe that's how she's managed to convince so many foreign governments to let her have a child from their country. She's a doped them all.

Librarian in the woodwork
WHY is everyone assuming that this was written by some homeless guy simply because it was on a homeless shelter's bulletin board???

CLEARLY this note was written by some celebrity volunteer who knows Jolie (who else could have signed it with an endearing XOXO??) and knows that she would be doing her celebrity volunteer time at the same shelter soon.

There's no other possible explanation.

Sammy Davis Junior Jr
Why the xoxo if Angolina is too clingy?

If I was homeless, I would tell people my name was Sammy Davis Jr.

The socialworker in Ann arbor
I am the actual finder of this note. My wife posted it here. I worked at the ann arbor homeless shelter for 2 years. This was indeed a homeless man who wrote this. I made it a mission to find out who had wrote it due to its hilarity. This was posted on the board employees put the phone messages on for the clients and also where clients would leave messages for other clients.
The man who wrote this letter was actually quite educated despite his grammar. He worked everyday, bought a jeep while he lived at the facility and moved on with his life when his 3 months were up. This guy did it as a joke. He wasn't delusional, he just wanted to make someone laugh and believe me I ran around the shelter laughing my ass off showing it to everyone. If this had been an actual act of delusion I would've never let it be posted.
Having worked with homeless people and it being my passion to work with homeless people I do hate the stigma attached to them. They are people with real feelings too...we all are just people. So give them a break...shit...give yourself a break too :)

All the love,
Reece
