The folks at Found Magazine have been collecting "found" letters, Polaroids, napkin doodles, and other treasures for a few years now. Here's the note that started it all.
What is it? Here's the Web site of the magazine that grew from a series of books, the first of which was inspired by a note that Chicagoan Davy Rothbart found on his car. It said: "Mario, I [expletive omitted] hate you, you said you had to work then why's your car HERE at HER place?? You're a [expletive omitted] LIAR. I hate you I [expletive omitted] hate you. --Amber. P.S. Page me later." Foundmagazine.com is the online collection of the thousands of notes, love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework, to-do lists, poetry on napkins, doodles, and other items discovered by Rothbart or contributed by his friends and fans.
Why is it funny? People are strange, and funny. The little glimpses Found gives us into their interpersonal relationships are thrilling in a voyeuristic way, and often hilarious.
