Don't let the bastards get you down. We still believe in you.
Oh, and if you felt like smacking around a few Republicans, like, literally smacking them upside the head, we've got your back. I'll even volunteer to smack Michelle Bachman for you. No, really.
@willwriteforfood: If this is a movement, sign me up. We can be a Writers' Justice League; fighting ignorance with our rapier wit, pristine use of semi-colons and a mean right hook.
@boobookitteh: Each section has to be decorated with the colors and symbols of the Kenyan flag, with the language written in either Bahasa Indonesia or Arabic and the only numbers will be 666!
Somewhere, a batshit right-wing blogger is reading this as:
"O Great Overlord-
allow your fawning media minions one more softball question, then it's time to retire to the Oval Office, where we shall continue the great socialism-fascism movement of 2009.
@AuntieBee: No snark meant, I (and BuzzFeed) just think the note is funny. And I usually just address my boss with "hey." "Sir" or "Madam" or Captain Janeway's favorite, "Captain" would get kinda cumbersome over IM.
@Anna N.: I don't care if you are a pyjama-clad, bunny-slipper-wearin', pinko blogger (as accused), this was a well-crafted bit of fun. (Doubters, q.v. punch line beginning with "Less effective choices..." and note the concise, two-sentence delivery).
I enjoy doing this myself when my overlord is in a group meeting, but as suggested by another commenter, I fold the paper in half. Gives the whole bit a powerful "West Wing" sort of aura.
On an ecological note: Good Lord, that fancily embossed, heavy stock note card had to cost a fortune in ink and trees. But I covet it for its style and power.
