Title: I'm annoyed again.
Post by: Roger Kettle on January 24, 2011, 09:05:58 PM

Today, I got a letter from the fine people who supply water to my house. Basically, it was a detailed insurance policy which would cover any potential problem that might arise. They outlined several water-related pitfalls and offered various payment alternatives for this policy. All in all, I was being treated like a responsible adult.
On the back of the envelope, it said "Recycle me".
Now, I guess I must have been three or four years old when I stopped believing that envelopes talked to me. Or wrote messages to me. Why, in God's name, did they not put "Please recycle" on the back?
MY envelope is going to have a very rude reply.

Are you bullying envelopes again?

Surely the water people are warning you of what might happen to your water supply should you not take them up on their offer of insurance.  Make sure that the envelope is not a 'smart' one or is bugged. you never know what they might do.

It isn't, and it has still outsmarted Roger.
