We’ve all created them and we’ve all been victims of passive-aggressive notes, since sometimes that’s the only way of handling irritating or otherwise awkward situations. Leaving notes or writing down your feelings can be a lot easier when it comes to inconsiderate neighbors, people who blocked you in the driveway, annoying co-workers (you know the one I’m talking about, don’t you?) or any person you don’t want to confront face to face. Some people use these passive-aggressive notes as a way to express their disapproval, and judging by these hilarious notes, other people just use them to have some fun.
Out of Line
We’ve all been caught in a similar situation when we can’t find a parking space since someone is taking up two spaces, simply because they couldn’t make the extra effort of parking inside the lines. We can all relate to the feelings of frustration and anger – anger at the world, at ourselves, and mostly at this person who doesn’t know how to park properly, or just doesn’t care enough.
There are different methods for handling such a situation, and people choose to handle it differently: while some people just can’t control their anger, and they vandalize the car in one way or another, other people handle the situation passive-aggressively. While this is probably not as strong a statement as trashing their vehicle, it gets the message across, and it’s a more civilized way to tell someone you’re displeased about his parking.
