We try and try to explain to her about the patriarchy, but she just doesn't listen...

High comedy as a friend of mine would say.

I like the Australian cuteboy(as I would say)
and the one below it is nicely done too.

Sure, some of them are a bit condescending and a couple are outright mean, but for the most part these messages are pretty sweet.

I'm especially touched by the ones that are written phonetically. It's like they tried a little bit harder, overcoming lanuage barriers, to let us know they care.

I'm not totally sure why I get such a kick out of the We're Sorry and We Accept sites.

Maybe it's just nice to see a little love getting thrown around (sort of).

I say "sort of" because referring to the other 51% of Americans as morons isn't really helping anyone.

That's true,but not all of them have a percentage,some of then are just genuinely kind.
Also,I fancy myself a sort of amatuer sociologist,
so for me its a fascinating look into little microworlds of different people. I mean with letters and stuff its almost kind of a creepy voyeurism(i know i hold onto anything I write and don't rip up like a million dollar bill,you'll never see my words i want you too)but its nonetheless enchanting,that much is true.

"...for me its a fascinating look into little microworlds of different people..."

yeah, that's exactly what draws me to it, too. I'm as addicted to these messages as anything I've ever seen on the interweb.
