It's always good to keep your finger on the pulse with everything that is going on around you! You only have to miss one memo and you're left looking like a right idiot!

Thanks For The Heads Up, Guys!

"So, Dave, we're all going to charge in and try to apprehend the criminals, okay?"

"What do you want me to do?"

"Err, I don't know, maybe just ring your bell a bit and pedal as fast as you can?"

"This is what happens when people submit passive-aggressive office memos where I work."

That is the most incredibly neat writing I've ever seen done with ketchup! And I've seen a lot of ketchup writing in my time, trust me on that!

"Someone apparently didn't get the memo to not park in the lot this weekend."

Reddit | Strawbalicious

I mean, fair play to the workers for just cracking on and not letting this dingbat get in the way of their work, but I can't believe they didn't just tow it away!

"The cat loves to show herself during the daughter's virtual clASSes."

Reddit | devofatherofchar

That cat has absolutely no idea that their backside is being seen by countless people across the internet! Although, as a cat, she probably wouldn't care.

"He didn't get the memo about painting the windowsill."

Reddit | Celeda

I dread to think how far and wide this little trail leads around that house! My nan's dog did this once and tracked cream paint all around the house, and it's still there to this day.

"Asked for extra pepperoni. Pizza Hut got the note."

Reddit | DPick02

Sure, they may have got the memo about wanting a bit of extra pepperoni, but it doesn't look like they got the memo about not using every single slice of pepperoni in the shop on one pizza!

"I told my wife to set a reminder on her phone. Apparently we have different ideas of what that means."

Reddit | Foreknown

I do love a good post-it note, mainly because they're a great way to annoy people. Nothing better than an anonymous passive-aggressive post-it note being left in an office. Ooh the drama that can ensue!

"It's hard to tell but one of my dogs helped mow the lawn."

Reddit | azflat4

That dog on the bottom looks like it is completely fed up with how energetic the green dog is!

"My cat has this hunting thing figured out."

Reddit | shigllgetcha

I mean, they've clearly got a strategy! It's a bold and quite ridiculous one, but it's a strategy nonetheless!

"Figured out who has been moving around all the stuff in my office. Left this little note for him."

Reddit | weulz

This person added, "I have an office which I have decorated with memorabilia from throughout my [firefighting] career. One of the guys has been sneaking in and rearranging my challenge coins every couple weeks. Today I figured out who it is."

"Just in case anyone was confused, chainsaws are not acceptable."

Reddit | EB27

This is hands-down the worst Carry On film that I have ever seen! Also, the fact that they need to put this sign up means that someone must have tried it!

"For a week I've been trashing this free deodorant... I just figured it out."

Reddit | Will_N_3D

Well, at least the underside of their armpits are protected from any harmful UV rays that they may be exposed to!

"It doesn't get much clearer than this!"

Reddit | ilikedonuts99

I can just imagine a person standing there staring at this, simply trying to pay for their products, only to break down into tears at the confusion of it all. On the right — or wrong — day, this could break anyone.

"That's not how that... Never mind."

Reddit | Teh_Dibble

Why ruin their dreams, Xavier? If they want to be an aunt or an uncle just let them, so long as they're happy!

Preserving A Bird's Identity...

Reddit | cornebw

The person who posted this explained, "The Dutch police arrested [a] man and his bird for a burglary. Due to not having a cage the police put the bird in jail, on water and bread. Local news media put a black bar on his face."

Well, That's Good To Know!

Reddit | Mr_master89

"Look, Mr. Smith, I'm sorry but the sign clearly says that the belly rubs are only for pets."

"And to think, I bought this dog specifically for those belly rubs! What a waste!"

"I honestly have no idea why my mother has done this."

Twitter | richie_rich77

I guess it was easier to do this than to tip them out and change them around? However, I simply couldn't live with this. It would send my anxiety off the charts! I'm feeling seasick just looking at it!

"Driver's ID [pictures] are often horrible but this Tennessee woman's ID takes the cake!"

Reddit | tomytronics

"What do you mean you're not letting me buy a pint! I've shown you my ID?!"

"Yes but, Ms. Dodd, clearly you are a human being and not a chair, so I simply cannot accept this."

"Taking traffic lights a little too seriously!"

Reddit | [Deleted]

I bet that this kid absolutely never got into trouble in school! Anyone who is this compliant must be a teacher's dream student!

"Turns out they drain the pond in my local park during winter. This swan obviously didn't get the memo."

Reddit | rijncur

"Dave, for the last time, come out of the lake! There's no water!"

"Allan, I said I'm going for a swim, so I'm going for a swim."

"Dave, I—"

"I said, I'm going for a damn swim!"
