Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:
Nothing like a little venomous poison pen message to kick-start our Friday morning (and who better to provide the soundtrack than Courtney Love from her Hole days). I’ll admit I’m no longer a big fan of the cancer sticks, but I agree with our Madison poet that hurling insults isn’t an effective cessation technique.

Smoking Isn’t Sexy But Neither Is Your Spandex
Dear dbag on a bike at Jenifer and Livingston at 6:45 Thursday evening,
I was standing at the bus stop and smoking a cigarette as you rode past and said, “That’s not sexy…” It took me a second to realize what you’d just said and that you weren’t on a headset but believe you me, I got pissed. Contrary to popular belief, not everything women do is an attempt to impress you. Whether or not you were talking about my smoking or my disco pants you should really learn to mind your own beeswax. ‘Cause believe me, you and your blue spandex ain’t so hot.
