Funniest Notes People Have Written to Complete Strangers

Some might see him as a villain. Others might see him as the hero we never knew we needed. Tic Tac sees a car and just gets the urge. Maybe he thinks it’s funny.

Maybe he’s just a practical joker. Either way, we know one thing here is undeniable. Tic Tac is an absolutely hilarious name for a horse, and it makes the note that much funnier.

Parking can be a very sensitive subject. Like, in some cities, driving around searching for parking can take well over half an hour! So yeah, we get why people will take extreme measures in order to reserve a parking spot.

If you’re lucky enough to have a designated parking spot, there’s no way you’re letting someone else snag it for free! This potential vaseline bandit thinks it's totally fine to threaten whoever thinks they can just swoop in and take their spot, and honestly, we can't judge them.

Everyone knows cats are sneaky little buggers, and nothing is more enticing to them than an area they aren’t allowed to go to. In this case, the great outdoors.

One sign seemingly wasn’t enough to prevent these cunning critters from making a run for it the second the door opens. Actually, it seems like two signs might also have not been enough. You know what they say, the third time’s the charm.

It is always awkward to put in your two-week notice at any job. And yeah, maybe it's a little bit unprofessional to put that notice on a note….of lined paper clearly taken from a notebook….with a stick figure drawing announcing you’re quitting.

But honestly, mad points for creativity. It’s kinda savage if you think about it. She didn’t even give a two-week notice; she just wrote: “Effective immediately.”

So in case, anyone here didn’t get the message, the “that would be grrreaaat” at the end is from the classic movie Office Space, repeatedly spoken by the unbearable boss Lumberg.

This guy clearly cares very little about this job since he put exactly zero effort into spelling or grammar. Props for the reference though, we hope his boss appreciated it.

Dang, people are starting to get really creative with their quitting notices. It’s pretty creative to go in the direction of a Hallmark "I’m sorry for your loss" card.

Clearly, Alex saw himself as a keystone member of the crew, whose absence would be taken very hard. At least he was kind enough to give them a two weeks notice.

This is, without a doubt, one of the more vicious notes we’ve seen. It’s fairly well known that traffic cops, parking police, and meter maids are universally hated. (We’d like to point out here that these people are only doing their job, and we fully support that).

But nobody, and we mean nobody, likes getting a ticket. So forcing the traffic warden to search for the correct parking ticket that gives you permission to park there is just evil. But also, it is genius.

Okay, we have to ask the obvious question before delving into this one. Does the person who drew this always walk around with chalk in their bag? Phew, glad we got that off our chests.

We’ve all encountered people who seem to think they deserve everything. This type of person thinks that they can park wherever they please regardless of parking lines. Well, this person was ready with the chalk to call them out on just how douchey their behavior really is.

There are few shows where each and every episode is truly epic. "Game Of Thrones" happens to be one of them. Whether you were a fan or not, during the GOT heyday, you couldn’t walk around and not hear everything that happened in the previous episode.

If you were super into the show but happened to have missed the last episode, chances are, someone was gonna spoil it. This person really thought ahead and wanted to make sure no one spoils the show for them. We have to applaud the foresight.

We can only imagine the disappointment one might feel after they get a written love note left on their car, only to realize it wasn't actually meant for them. Ouch.

Now in all fairness, the person who wrote the note can’t let the car owner go on thinking the love note was, in fact, intended for them. That being said, we can’t help but feel a little bit bad for the unintended recipient.

Some people don’t like to mince words. Keeping things short, sweet and to the point is their style. There’s absolutely no question here that whoever wrote this note is one of those people.

Is the message clear? Absolutely. Is it missing some sort of emotional touch? Yes. Most definitely. But we’re not here to judge. To each his own, ya know?

If you have to call someone else for blocking your driveway, it seems that maybe it would soften the blow to quote a popular tune. The person who blocked the driveway probably doesn't deserve something this creative but they got it anyway.

When you get the urge to quote, you just do, and there's nothing that can stop you, even if someone is stopping you from getting out of your driveway.

This solid attempt to get out of jury duty deserves a round of applause. In order to get out of your civic duty, you might have to prove you’re just insane enough to not be able to fairly judge someone else.

Implying that anyone who enters the court will get what’s coming to them because you’ve deemed yourself a vigilante for justice is, quite frankly, genius.

The holiest keeper of cars, Optimus Prime, is the perfect way to let someone know their parking is a complete mess without making the note too blunt.

Whoever parked that car may never know who actually wrote the note, but they will know their parking job sucked, and the note writer definitely invested a bit of time in that tiny caricature at the bottom.

We’re fairly certain one of the biggest disputes between people who live together is dirty dishes. Leaving a note is the ultimate passive-aggressive move, but honestly, if you’re able to add a little bit of creativity to it, then maybe it’s not so bad?

We’d like to assume this note came after multiple times the recipient of the note was asked to start doing the dishes more often. A last resort, if you will.

This one feels supremely justified and quite a creative solution. Nobody wants all kinds of different hands touching the object that’s going into their mouth.

We think it’s a great idea and applaud whoever thought of it.  But also, we can’t let go of the fact that they seriously missed the opportunity to say SPOON SPOON!

They say what goes around comes around. Well, it seems this employer wasn’t, shall we say, particularly sympathetic to the personal needs of their employee. So maybe this unbelievably sarcastic “apology” for having some very serious personal issues and needing to take some time off was justified.

And maybe next time, that employer will think twice about how they treat their employees and how they react to an employee's time off.

To be honest, we are not sure if this practical joke is some type of revenge thing or rather a gag between friends or family members. What we do know is, that momentary feeling when you see a piece of paper on your windshield and your heart drops into your stomach is not fun, to say the least.

I guess we’ll never know what the receiver did to deserve this prank, but we imagine it probably did the trick.

Whoever wrote this original note wasn’t politely asking their co-workers not to touch their mug. As far as they’re concerned, it’s a given that no one touches the reindeer mug!

Clearly, this assumption is just begging for the mug to be touched — and touched it was.  Luckily for the guy who wrote the note, it seems that it was only touched, nothing more. But maybe that makes it worse? You'll have to ask him.

The passive-aggressiveness is just oozing from every angle of this letter. There is nothing apologetic about this note, and from the sounds of it, rightfully so.

By reading this letter and a few others on this list, it is safe to say that we think it’s time employers wake up and start treating their employees like human beings. The better the work conditions, the less likely employers will be to receive resignation letters like this one, calling them out on their BS.

It’s hard not to be charmed by the cute face of Grumpy Cat! The important thing here is not to focus on that and miss the message completely.

Of course, Grumpy Cat is grumpy because he is calling someone out for snagging someone else’s parking spot. Big no-no. If Grumpy Cat says it’s so, then it must be so. We hope whoever received this message got that point and immediately moved the vehicle.

Kay, but like, where did they find Post-It notes that had the word “really?” printed on them? Or maybe they printed onto them, in which case we ask….how?

Either way, we get the vibe that this might be a recurring issue with the dishes. So the notes seem kinda necessary, actually. Like seriously, really?

A little sarcasm goes a long way. It’s not just your simple request not to park too far out into the road. It feels more like a “did you really do that?” kinda thing.

On some levels, this stings more than just a polite note. It seems like the person who wrote it feels pretty justified in their complaint, so in a moment of anger, written a passive-aggressive note. We can’t really blame them.

If you hold your employees to a certain level of compliance, then it’s only fair that you follow your own rules as well. As a boss, you should set an example, and the hope is that your employees work according to that.

Well, this boss definitely didn’t set the right example, and well, this is what happens. Workers lose patience, and then the employer ends up with a closed store when it was supposed to be open and an angry note on the door for everyone to see.

A standing ovation here for whoever put this much effort just to secretly show the world what they truly feel about their boss. The creativity is very impressive, and they really got the ticket spot on.

The beauty in this one is that the boss might actually never find out, but he will need to catch on eventually after the employee no longer shows up to work since their week's notice is over. We want to know just how long it took their boss to find that note!

This one is supremely awkward. Yes, some people are married to noticeably attractive people. No, this does not give others the right to focus solely on them and completely ignore their significant other or friends, or whoever else may be sitting with them.

It’s pretty likely this waiter didn’t get a good tip, and if they have any feelings whatsoever, they’ll probably be pretty embarrassed to discover why.

It was very nice of whoever left this note to update before someone walked into the bathroom and discovered the damage for themselves.

The assumption that whoever came into the bathroom after them would want to know how they were feeling afterward is beautifully naive. Honestly, if you have to leave a clogged toilet, it’s the right thing to leave a note.

We’ll leave it up to you guys to decide if this “love note” from the guy in the blue shirt in class is very sweet or just plain creepy. Ultimately, we guess he’s trying to compliment the class hottie.

That being said, he might have slightly missed the mark with this one. Maybe going with “you look cute” or “would you like to grab a drink sometime?” would have been slightly more appropriate.

If you have to lose a doorknob, might as well lose it to a neighbor who is, as he says, trippin’ pretty hard. The fact he thought it was a muffin instead of a doorknob has us dying to know what did he do with the knob once he had it?!

Try to eat it?! Realize immediately it wasn’t actually a muffin?! We have questions, and we must have answers!

There are two scenarios that usually occur when you see someone has left their car door open by accident. Scenario number one, they’re a good samaritan, and they simply close the door. Scenario number two, they’re not a good samaritan, and they steal all your stuff.

This scenario here is definitely an outlier. Why on earth would someone who sees an open car door leave a note that says...well...this? We can only imagine what goes on in the mind of this peculiar offender.

Sometimes all you need is just a little pick-me-up. In this case, the pick me up came in the form of an anonymous note letting you know wherever you are in life is just fine.

We’re all just kinda figuring it out as we go, and a little reminder you’re doing fine is always welcomed. People should leave more notes like this around.

There’s always something so charming about personifying inanimate objects. Whoever wrote this note made the printer seem like the politest old little guy who just doesn’t have it in him to keep going.

How could you be mad at the printer for conking out after 14 full years of service? We approve of this kind of note and think maybe people should use this approach more often with electronics.

Listen, if you have to eavesdrop on someone, or rather, if you find yourself in a position to eavesdrop and it simply can’t be avoided, the least you can do is put a smile on that person’s face.

Clearly, the eavesdropper was having a hard time, and the eavesdropper just wanted to give her a vote of confidence! 10/10 for this kind of note.

No one expects to be attacked by a drunk co-worker at their job. But if that does happen, you'd assume the attacker would be fired, right? That's not too much to ask.

Well, he wasn't. We can completely understand why this person chose to just call out their boss to everyone and explain exactly why they aren’t there to serve customers.

This is, in fact, a picture of a dinosaur. Not sure if whoever wrote this note thought the drawing might soften the blow or not.

However, it is a pretty cute dinosaur so, maybe it did the job? Either way, they chose to go with the facts. They are quitting, and here’s a pic of a dinosaur. You can’t really argue with that.

Can we be friends with Liz too? What an amazing act of kindness. Liz was having a good day and decided to take care of this random person’s parking ticket.

There should be more people like Liz out there. We’d like to think whoever’s ticket she paid somehow paid it forward to someone else in another act of kindness.

They really did as much as they could, seeing as there’s a straight-up monster in the attic. I can’t really blame them for having to split real quick after that discovery.

We’re wondering if the monster is maybe a bat? Racoon? Possum? BEAR?! Or just your run-of-the-mill attic Goblin. We’ll need these workers to report back with some more details, please.

Kindness for the sake of being kind is in short supply these days. It’s nice to see someone compliment with no ulterior motive.

Didn’t ask for her number. Didn’t leave his. Just a simple note that we’re sure must have really made her day. People should do this more often; the world could use a little more love.

Sure. their mailbox is destroyed. But hey, at least the woman's husband left a note explaining this was all for a good cause.

In her defense, it seems like she’s fairly compassionate about wildlife, so that should give her some points, no? Maybe she’s not the world’s best driver, but she’s got a big heart.

When you gotta go, you gotta go. So you can’t really blame this guy for parking in a no-parking zone for a sec. At least he left a note, no?

We can only hope that if the parking authority comes by, they have enough compassion to let this driver finish their business and move the car before it bothers anyone.

So maybe he didn’t have to be quite that harsh, but when you’re paying for a good cup of coffee from a coffee shop, it’s disappointing to get a hot cup of water with a hint of coffee.

Maybe this barista should reconsider his career choice? Or maybe he’s new and needs some more training? Either way, this note was probably pretty uncomfortable to receive.

Well, this is one of the most wholesome notes we’ve read. This good citizen is just trying to let people take books for free and expand their horizons. But the golden sedan lady is out to destroy this noble mission.

Asking people to give her nasty looks if they see her is the right thing to do. Golden sedan lady, if you’re reading this, c’mon, man.

Shoveling snow is brutal. You’re out there toiling with fingers that gradually go numb, but, you have no choice if you want to have a proper parking space.

Can you imagine the horror of coming home and seeing that somebody has assumed your parking spot as their own? That must be very disheartening. We must say, the note that they left the parking spot stealer isn’t as ruthless as it could have been. They could have even called the tow truck. We hope that this driver has the heart not to try to pull this move off again.

The person who wrote this note wanted to notify the driver that they should be more considerate of others on the road because after all, they aren’t bloody sardines.

It seems like this note probably wasn’t written in the United States. Americans don’t go around using the term “bloody sardines.” Seems like something that a Brit would say. And anyways, Americans would be way more vulgar than that.

Now, this is one rude and offensive windshield note. This person’s parking may have been comically bad, but it definitely doesn’t justify leaving a comment such as this. Comparing their parking to Stevie Wonder is pretty low.

Besides, if the car did, in fact, belong to someone who is visually impaired, why would they be able to even read that note? Haven't thought of that, now, have ya?

Based on the note, it seems the romance has fizzled out, and now all that's left is bad communication and very loud voices.

It's always uncomfortable to realize other people know your private business, so we can’t even begin to imagine how bad it would feel to know the whole building is rooting for you to break up.

Hitting someone’s car and not leaving a note is definitely high on our jerk-o-meter. Accidents happen, but it is basic human decency to leave a note with your details and take responsibility for your mistakes. Whoever hit this car didn’t do that, but luckily there was someone around who saw the whole thing and took matters into their own hands.

Now when the person calls their insurance company, they will at least have some basic information about who caused the damage.

Have you seen the movie Frozen? Well, this is the real-life car version. When this car got a ticket for being parked there for too long, the owner wrote a note replying to the ticket explaining that his door is frozen shut and he can’t open the car to move it.

There are several ways to unfreeze your door and even things you can do to prevent your car door from freezing. Next time, try some WD40.

Sarcasm is the perfect outlet to deal with a person who habitually blocks the path people use to walk on.

However, if you look at the note, you may notice that it is written in all caps. It’s pretty clear that the writer does not think everything is awesome and is suggesting that if the car gets damaged during their epic slides, it’s not their problem!

Stealing a man’s package is one thing. Stealing the item that’s supposed to protect a man’s package is a different thing entirely.

We're not sure what sport it is that the note writer practices, but we hope it's something related to kicking people's butts.

Speaking of sarcasm, this next note took it all the way. Instead of using harsh words or cursing whoever moved their bins to park, they were super polite, but somehow the message still came shining through.

Honestly, it would make anyone mad if someone moved their trash cans and kept them from being emptied. Just in case the recipient of the note got confused by all the kind words and the heart decoration, the signoff could not be clearer.

There's nothing quite like a smiley face to end an already annoying neighbor note. Although, in all fairness, they are totally right. People usually need some kind of permit to build a garage, especially when it crosses over to another person's property.

Hey, at least the neighbors were friendly enough to welcome them to the neighborhood.

If you would order 30 rolls of toilet paper on Amazon, it would only make sense that you would also take comfort in poetic vengeance via a cleverly written note.

What we’re not sure of, though, is where exactly did he or she put the note, considering the package was already taken.

The person who wrote this note has a way with words and also quite clearly a sense of humor. They put their complaints in extremely courteous words, making sure that the whole matter was as civilized as possible. Even though car alarms going off for no reason is one of the most aggravating things on the planet.

You can plainly see that Sir Tyrannosaurus Rex is a dinosaur of elegant breeding and habits, just check out the tophat and wine glass.

The sheer irony is astounding when you claim that you accidentally lost a 7-foot snake and then say in the next sentence that there's nothing to worry about.

Most likely this was just a prank note meant to scare people into calling poor Nick. We'd probably just prefer to live as far away from Nick as possible.

Whoever wrote this note has certainly taken some cues from Liam Neeson’s convincing portrayal in the movie "Taken". They have clearly seen this film a few times too many and have learned this monologue by heart. Although to be fair, in the film Neeson plays a father whose daughter was kidnapped and is trying to get her back.

Here the threats are directed at someone who can’t park, but nonetheless, if they don’t follow instructions, they will be found – and boxed in!

Everyone occasionally experiences that paranoid feeling when you’re almost sure that you forgot to lock your door. Well, everyone except this neighbor, who just got a very surprising note on his door.

We are grateful that this worried neighbor made sure to leave an impression that the apartment owner will never forget.

It must be nice for this note to be the first thing you see in the morning before getting in your car to go to work. Or at anytime, for that matter.

Not only do you not want to imagine two animals mating on your car, but you start to seriously wonder whether the person that left this note was trying to be friendly or cheeky. But hey, apparently it was important enough for them to leave a note!

Part of living around other people involves having to deal with hearing them go about their daily life, but when you can hear a neighbor’s car alarm going off without end for an entire night, anyone would be justified in leaving a threatening note.

How they’re that heavy of a sleeper is beyond us, but hopefully, the note worked.

You may think Nick’s note is genuinely concerned. However, this was most likely the work of a selfish, leeching neighbor with no internet of his own.

Either way, this note is a reminder for anyone using Wi-Fi to opt for a password-protected connection if they don’t want other people to use their internet.

When the ‘Lady of the House’ first read the note written by her neighbor, she realized that there may be a "True Crime" reenactment with her as the lead actress coming soon.

We suggest that this lady starts waving at her neighbor as soon as possible. You do not want to incur the wrath of the waveless.

Although 'Game of Thrones' had aired its last episode, we are not going to risk any spoilers for the books which turned into a hit television series, pretty much followed by every person on the planet. Instead, we will just explain the note that was left on this windshield.

On the show, the Lannisters are famously known for executing anyone who gets in their way. Accordingly, whoever parked here should definitely feel threatened and start watching their backs.

There are many reasons why someone would choose to steal a 4-year-old’s paddling pool.

Maybe the thief was just doing her a favor and saving her from a very bad swim? This neighbor was clearly not giving their neighbors the benefit of the doubt, like this very friendly note shows.

It is incredibly annoying for someone to leave their clothes in a shared dryer for such a long time.

Max from 3F is not only a great artist. He's also a very creative writer. He even tried to fold his neighbor's sheets! We would love to have a neighbor like Max. We support you, Max!

There’s nothing like passive-aggressive people to add some color into a neighbor’s life. Would the neighbor get the musical reference?

Would they change their ways due to the beautifully painted note? We’re not really betting on it, but hey — these are some really nice writing abilities! Might as well put them to some use and write something nice.

BMW people are not like us common folk. Or at least that's what they like to think. The truth is that on the inside they are just as insecure as the next person, only with fatter wallets. As evidenced by this note, this inconsiderate BMW owner took up some unnecessary parking space.

This note writer, who also happens to be a "worthless Toyota driver" (just to get the point across) thought it was good to let the driver know. We appreciate the humor!

Listen up, doggo, if you wanna sit on the ground and chill all day, make sure you're not doing it in someone else's parking spot. This car owner needs a spot to put their car because evidently there is nowhere else to do so. It also appears that this is the only space for the dog too. Sounds like a conflict.

The best part about this? The dog will obviously get the memo once he reads the note on the windshield. Must be a very intelligent dog!

Malcolm must have been so happy with himself when he wrote this note. After all, nothing beats rubbing something in a bad neighbor's face.

This is a reminder of why it's so important to be nice to our neighbors. You never know when a bunch of gypsies might come around to steal your things.

There are few things worse than when a car blocks you in. It can really ruin your entire day and make you very late to work. In this person’s case, it clearly had a very negative impact on their morning, as seen by the intimidating note that they left. We are wondering how they have access to a monster truck.

You can be sure that if this car blocks this person in again, there will be serious consequences, and to be honest, we don’t blame them. We know just how much that can ruin your day.
