Piece of trash on the median by the library. Could be harmful?

SUBJECT: Overprivileged school having a fundraiser

We need your help and lots of other volunteers to do something unspecified. Might be an actual barn raising.

SUBJECT: Panicky, NIMBY hyperbole

City council thinking about considering a slight change to an obscure ordinance. Just FYI.

Great, there goes the neighborhood. I saw this coming from a mile away. – Henny Penny

SUBJECT: Re: Panicky, NIMBY hyperbole

Do we even need sidewalks, anyway? I think we should be willfully ignorant that a street is becoming a main thoroughfare through the neighborhood. My friend at city coun…I mean, the taco stand said this won’t affect anything.

Here’s my five paragraphs of blowhard ipsum. Please read carefully and thoughtfully, as I will always start my reply to your reply with, “Did you read what I wrote?”

You guys, stop replying all. Nobody wants to wade through all this crap.

What’s really important is that we maintain an absolute fist of control over everything that happens in this three-million-person city. I want to reiterate Henny Penny’s point with one slight variation in word choice.

SUBJECT: anyone know of a good tree removal service?

Looking to remove a 75-year-old oak tree as it’s blocking my view of the hot neighbor’s bedroom.

SUBJECT: re: anyone know of a good tree removal service?

Apologies for the repeating posts, trying to figure out this most basic means of communication.

SUBJECT: Possible crime in progress

A youth of certain demographics (I won’t go into it because of bleeding hearts around here) was riding his bike on my street. He was wearing a bright orange hoodie, with black sneakers and dungarees, and looked like he preferred pancakes over waffles. When I slowed down my vehicle to get a good look at what he was doing—casing houses for burglary?—he glared at me and rode off. As someone who has been in the neighborhood for a billion years, nobody call me out, even when I ask a public forum to suspect someone I’ve described in detail.

SUBJECT: Re: Possible crime in progress

Did you make a police report? The police won’t know this happened unless you do!!

SUBJECT: Can I borrow a cup of flour?

I would rather email 1,000 people than knock on my next door neighbor’s door.

SUBJECT: Re: dredging up a hot-button issue (Re: Panicky, NIMBY hyperbole) from a month ago

Just wanted to add in my two cents, as a white male businessowner. Let’s now use this opportunity to rehash all of the same points that have already been made.

SUBJECT: Selling tickets to event for exactly what I paid for them.

Event isn’t sold out and won’t be, but you should coordinate payment and pickup from a stranger to add an extra step to the purchasing process!

SUBJECT: Neighborhood Association meeting

First announcement—happening in 30 minutes and won’t happen again for a month. Hope you didn’t have any plans!
