FOUND by Voteprime
in Washington, DC
Found it on a shelf near the mailboxes in my apartment building. For what it's worth, the next morning I definitely heard a loud radio blaring from an apartment down the hall.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I sure don't miss living in an apartment complex.
Also, this should be submitted to PAN.
I'm pretty sure this WAS submitted to me.
This kind of stuff happened all the time at my last college... honestly, I don't understand how people can handle to listen to the alarm beeping for an hour straight... to each his/her own.
There's one reason I don't rent anymore.
Ya, seriously, get a clue <.< Also, take out the ear plugs >.>
Wow... That is one angry tenant. Must not be a morning person.
Eh. Maybe the dude is a sociopath and he's getting joy out of pissing everyone off.
Just wait until someone breaks in and destroys his alarm clock. Taking its place? A bomb.
I would totally write a note like this if someone's alarm woke me up! I am a very, VERY grumpy waker-upper.
Actually, if someone's alarm kept waking me up- it would probably be best for them to be out of town. Far, far away from Harm's reach.
I want to turn off the fucking alarm radio, but wait, I can't! Because I'm away!
I'm sorry. Maybe not enuf.
But thanks for the fucking clue.
oh god, i remember staying at a house where i had to share a room with 5 other girls and one of them always set her phone alarm for like 6 am, then would lay there and listen to it go off for hours on end. after a month of that i had a breakdown and had to move out.
ucking snooze alarm six times. I mean, if you're not going to get up til 6:30, set your friggin alarm for 6:30 and get up. Have a little considera
It went off again the next morning?
Does that mean clueless never got the message?
Or maybe they aren't into the simple consideration.
Either way, I feel like the note should have been left there a little longer.
I lived in an apartment where a neighbor worked the night shift, so his alarm went off around
9 pm. He would always forget to shut it off when he was away from home. Not only is it obnoxious be be awakened by an alarm, it's living HELL to try to go to sleep with one blaring next door.
This happened at our building once. I threw the main power breaker for that apt off and we all went back to bed.
Jeez, Farmer, sorRY! It just makes me feel like I'm cheating and getting extra sleep. If it bothers you that much, you coulda just SAID something. Tomorrow will you just wake me up, then? I won't set the alarm at all.
xoxoxo

Woah...no "passive" here, this is pure agression. But there's no "agressivenotes.com" so they sent it to Found.
Jake wanted to shut off his radio alarm, but the instruction were in Japanese, so he had no idea how. He'd press button after button, but it always went off the next morning. He often went on trips to get away from it. In fact, the note-writer neglected to mention that there was an even more annoying alarm on the next floor. It made terrible bird sounds, and the tenant never turned it off. Eventually her neighbor stormed in and threw the alarm out the window.
of course you heard the radio the next day...
YOU REMOVED THE NOTE!
i think you should put it back immediately!
F**ing alarm clocks? We don't need that here...we have f***ing dogs that will wake us up early in the morning when their f**ing owners leave for work and let the dogs out, who start to bark. Before the crack of dawn.
certainly had enuf of that...
Yep.
PMS.
it's either

or Probably.
Always on.
It would sure turn ME off to have to imagine someone trying to do THAT to an alarm clock. He'd at least need an aluminum condom to protect himself from getting injured by the alarm clock.
I always have wondered about inconsiderate people.
I teach deaf high schoolers. Loud alarm clocks are useless. Instead, they have to rely on other devices, like ones that vibrate the bed.
I think that is a wise consideration for us hearing folk...especially if we have to live in close quarters with others.
Now to get those damn dogs to quit barking (Sammy, I feel your pain)
Where can I get this mythical alarm clock that has a 'fucking' setting on it? Or do you have to get 2 of these alarm clocks so they can get it on - on your nightstand - at a specific time to wake one up?
Oh Yeah, and Mom, can you pick up some toilet paper at the grocery today? Timmy
I set 3 alarms and typically sleep through all of them. I have narcolepsy. Where can I get one of those vibrating alarms?

Farmer, what time does your cock crow?
One of life's lil pleasures is hitting the snooze alarm 5 or 6 times each morning.
I would like to know that about Farmer, myself :)
(all this talk about fucking and vibrating is making me a little...
oh. Wait. Never mind.)
Thanks foochy! Those are neat. I may have to invest in one.
I'm deaf in one ear so if I rolled over in the night so that my hearing ear was against the pillow I sometimes would not hear my alarm. In college, I just got an incredibly loud alarm before I realized I could set my cell phone alarm to vibrate, stick it in my pillow case and sleep on it and when it vibrates, the jolt wakes me up. I thought about investing in an official alarm clock for the hard of hearing, but I'm a cheap-o. If I had gotten one, though, it would have prevented the incident in which I accidentally set my alarm for 8 PM, went out with the intent to get drunk and therefore left my door unlocked since when drunk I always lost my keys and then left. When I returned I was very far gone and neighbor had come in to turn it off and as a punishment for disrupting her watching of Buffy DVDs with my noise she had thrown all the clothes out of the drawers in my dresser.
The alarm clock radios I used to have would get bored and turn themselves off after 30 mins or an hour. The last one I had would turn off after two hours, which was kind of good because if it had gone off at 7.30 a.m. and I hadn't got out of bed, then when it went silent I knew it was 9.30 and really about time I did get up.
That one stopped working so I bought a poncy new triangular digital one. I've tried all the buttons and read all the instructions but there is no way to set it to switch itself off if I don't! Ever!! So when I go away I have to unplug the stupid thing from the wall.
This is technological progress??
Hrrumph.
I feel your pain, Jonathan. Actually, since I discovered that my cellphone can be used effectively as an alarm clock, I haven't touched my "real" alarm clock. Except when it was time to "spring forward." I wasn't confident that my phone would update the time by itself. (but it did.)
The only annoying thing about the cellphone alarm clock is that the "snooze" is only 5 minutes long, as opposed to the 9 minute snooze on the alarm clock radio. (and oh yeah, I hit snooze. repeatedly.) also, it'll only snooze for half an hour, then shuts off. (hurray for alarms 2 and 3.)
i did this a few too many times in my life. sorry fellow travelers.
I luv that spelling. Enuf. I've a had just about enuf of your shenanigans, young lady! Ha!
