Flatbelly Melissa
FOUND by David Gonda in Albuquerque, New Mexico
I found this around the dumpster outside of my work. Not sure what a Flatbelly Melissa is, but if I ever see it on a menu, I'm ordering it.

Pretty sure either Melissa or her "customer" is requesting a flat (tone) stomach. Not quite sure how you tip on that but I'll take a half order, please, and a side of boobs.

It is some kind of fish or something?

I'm thinking this is 1 of 2 things:
Either Melissa is the waitress, and she took an order from her customer for "1 Flatbelly" - in diners they use code words to remember what people ordered so this could be for a salad or something. Waitresses usually write their names on the checks where I'm from. OR It could be a note to self from Melissa to work on her beer gut.

I may have solved this one. "Flatbelly" seems to be a type of waterbottle bracket for mountain bikes, according to my Google search. I'm guessing this is a phone order taken at a bike shop, reserving the bracket for Melissa. Hope she uses it in good health!

I don't think that's a '1' at all, but an uppercase 'I', and this is the beginning of an important document of some kind - Flatbelly Melissa's will and last testamint, perhaps. ;^P

I was thinking the same thing about the uppercase "I."

I like to think that a flatbelly is some kind of sexual feat, which the author administers to Melissa on a regular basis.

Lucky you, Melissa!

If it is a sexual feat I, too, would like to "flatbelly" Melissa, the girl is fit and rides a mt. bike.

Wow, it's so interesting to see how differently everyone interprets these things! On first reading I was completely oblivious to the fact that it's written on a restaurant guest check and assumed that this was a complete sentence, with a subject, a verb, and a receiving pronoun: "I flatbelly Melissa." Kinky, huh? ;)

Well, according to the Urban Dictionary, a flatbelly is "attractive high school or college girls who have toned, or flat stomachs." Go Melissa!

As a cook in a diner, I created a sandwich years ago called a "Flatbed." So, given the restaurant check and all, I'm going with an employee meal for Melissa. What a flatbelly is, I have no idea.

I'm assuming that this is just some type of order taken perhaps at a diner or restaurant. At a local pizza place in my town they take lunch orders in a similar way. You tell them what you want and your name. They give the paper to the chef and when your order is up, they just yell out your name.
By the way, this note only caught my eye because I am in fact a Melissa.
