A Message from Management

I thought I was living in a decent apartment building, but upon receiving an e-memo from management today, I discovered that I’m actually living in my old freshman dorm.

These are just basics? I’d hate to learn what else my seemingly polite neighbors have been up to when I’m not looking. Or, rather, I’d love to learn.

  1. Good Lord!! All this looks like is a blueprint giving the ‘inconsiderates’ more ideas!! I guess I’ll leave my watermelon home when I visit the next time; no more fun on the roof……

  2. Hahaha! Delurking to say just how hilarious your post and picture are today!!! Ridiculously funny! Love your new Knitty pattern, too!

  3. omg, that’s funny. At least it doesn’t say DON’T KNIT CUTE CREATURES – now that would be outrageous!

  4. Working in Marketing for a property management company who owns & manages several apartment communities, I got an esp good chuckle from that one!! Thanks! :)

  5. Ewww. That totally reminds me of a dorm (and not just a freshman dorm). Why is it that as soon as people go to college they all of a sudden forget how to be a human being, and instead live like disgusting pigs and ruin it for those who are mature and clean up after themselves? It’s really sad when people cannot handle “adult” or “mature” things like disposing of trash in the proper recepticles.

  6. I don’t think I’m going to need to work out today, I am still laughing so hard. Don’t you live in a “green” building? I can’t believe anyone’s causing any kind of environmental havoc. The shock!
