Passive-Aggressive Note of the Day: Borders locked up the last of its brick-and-mortar bookstores last Sunday. The above list of gripes — reportedly posted at one of many out-of-business outlets — claims to speak for all Borders employees.
A transcript follows, courtesy of EW’s Shelf Life:
We hate when a book becomes popular simply because it was turned into a movie.
It confused us when we were asked where the non-fiction section is.
Nicholas Sparks is not a good writer … if you like him, fine, but facts are facts.
We greatly dislike the phrase “Quick question.” It’s never true. And everyone seems to have one.
Your summer reading list was our summer reading NIGHTMARE. Also, it’s called summer reading, not three days before school starts reading.
It’s true that we lean to the left and think Glenn Beck is an idiot.
We always knew when you were intently reading Better Homes and Gardens, it was really a hidden Playboy.
Most of the time when you returned books you read them already — and we were onto you.
Limit One Coupon did not mean one for every member of your family — this angered us. Also, we did know what coupons were out.
It never bothered us when you threatened to shop at Barnes & Noble. We’d rather you do if you’re putting up a stink. 
“I was just here last week and saw this book there” meant nothing to us. The store changed once a week.
When you walked in and immediately said, “I’m looking for a book,” what you really meant to say is, “I would like you to find me a book.” You never looked. It’s fine, it’s our job — but let’s be correct about what’s really happening here. 
If you don’t know the author, title, or genre, but you do know the color of the cover, we don’t either. How it was our fault that we couldn’t find it we’ll never understand.
We were never a daycare. Letting your children run free and destroy our section destroyed a piece of our souls.
Oprah was not the “final say” on what is awesome. We really didn’t  care what was on her show or what her latest book club book was.  Really.
When you returned your SAT books, we knew you used them. We thought it wasn’t fair — seeing that we are not a library.

I worked 6 years in a bookstore as college student.  Best job ever and this list is all true.

Aww. ;o;

I already miss Jack.  An amazing man, politician and Trekkie.  I remain someone who desires the separation of Quebec but he made me dream of a better Canada and world.

quote

A man goes out on the beach and sees that it is covered with starfish that have washed up in the tide. A little boy is walking along, picking them up and throwing them back into the water.

“What are you doing, son?” the man asks. “You see how many starfish there are? You’ll never make a difference.”

The boy paused thoughtfully, and picked up another starfish and threw it into the ocean.

“It sure made a difference to that one,” he said.

A Hawaiian parable, referenced in Half the Sky by Nicholas Kristof & Sheryl WuDunn (via lotw) (via dianemango) (via tinydragongina) (via icthyosapien)

A social worker told us that story when we first got into fostering.  Tomorrow is our 6 months hearing for the children we have in our care.  I have been angry all day at the thought that the biological mother might show up after disappearing for the last 2 months.  

Reading this after seeing it randomly pop up on my dash centered me. No matter what right now we are making a difference.  No matter what right now we are helping those two awesome starfish.

I always say that no one can beat me asking my husband on the Pacific coast sunset leading to a full moon but that is beautiful.
