Dear Loud Annoying Dude at the Coffee Shop

May 29, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Hey… guess what. As surprising as this might be, the majority of the people in this coffee shop aren’t interested in what you are currently doing, so there’s really no need to talk about it loud enough for all of us to hear. Also, if you’re going to try to chat up the baristas, go ahead and walk over to them, rather than shouting from the opposite end of the place.

Yeah… Cell Phones are great, aren’t they? But, sadly, we’re just not interested in hearing every part of your phone conversation either, so you can either take it outside or talk quieter. What you don’t need to do is talk loudly while walking around the coffee shop like you’re completing laps in a Fun-Run.

One other quick tip: We’ve all been burned by the “oops, I left my cell phone’s ringer on in a public place” thing, but when it happens twice within minutes of each other, it makes you a jackass.

Hoping something bad happens to you,
Ron

Dear Annoying Singer Guy

I hate you.

Also, wtf Guitar Hero? You want me to yell at the screen for star power?

In conclusion, I can’t tell if the game you’re singing about is going to be novel and fun for a little while, or completely craptastic. But really, you need to stop singing.

Love,

Joel

As nice as air conditioning is, there is no reason why it should be 75 degrees outside, and 40 degrees inside. I should not have to bundle up to come inside. Now I’m sitting here clutching my coffee and shivering like an idiot. I realize you just want me to purchase another coffee, or better yet, buy a coffee and then just leave…but seriously, this is ridiculous. The windows are beginning to frost over…

Shivering furiously,
Ron

Just an FYI. You guys are idiots.

I know you probably hear it a lot. The reason for that is that it’s true.

Pissed off every time I think of you,

Just go ahead and shut yourself down if you’re going to hang and spin every time I try to do anything. It’ll save us both a lot of time, and I won’t sit there for 5 minutes like an idiot thinking you’re actually going to do what I asked of you. Also, you suck.

Yours,
Ron

I accept the fact that I left your lid closed. That was my fault. But spilling coffee out of the air hole all over my shirt and pants… that’s all on you, my friend. Thanks for making me look like an idiot.

Stainfully yours,
Ron

Really? Really?? An item in the trash is affecting functionality on the main site? WTF?

When I put a CD in to rip it, and you ask me if I want to rip it, when I click ‘yes’ it means that I do, indeed, want to rip it. It does not mean that I want you to make the CD disappear from the system so I have eject it and do it all over again.

Thx,

Joel

There is not a single person in this world who likes having the “hidden track” tucked away after the final track and 15 minutes of silence. It just means people will either skip it, or forget there was music on, enjoy the 15 minutes of silence, and then be startled when music suddenly starts up again for no reason… and they’ll feel like an idiot. Stop it.

Cordially,
Ron

How about you let me open/close ports in the Firewall using a GUI like Tiger let me do? That was a really handy feature.

Yours,
