I think these (http://www.mcsweeneys.net/links/openletters/) are kind of fun. Be sure to read the one to Ann Coulter :haha:

That one was good! A lot of them are. Some of them are disturbingly real. :D

Hehe! Man, some of those are hilarious. I loved the one "...to Yuppie Mummies (Yummies)". :D

Dear Matthew,
I hate you, go to hell.
Sincerely,
Patrick
Also the letter to Sgt. Smith was great, closing with complement on his blue eyes.

The one to Ann Coulter was short, sharp and to the point. I liked it a lot.

"An open letter to umlaut:"
Dear Umlaut,
You think you're so damn cool, huh? Just hanging out, chillin', above all those vowels. You're all, "Ooh, look at me, I'm a chic umlaut. I make girls' names look modish, like Zoë and Chloë, and I rock with strung out '80s metal bands!"
Well, guess what? You're only an umlaut if you're modifying the pronunciation of a singular vowel, like in "Führer" or "über." If you're stressing the second of two consecutive vowels or one that would usually be silent according to common English usage, you're just a plain old boring dieresis. How 'bout that, you naïve jackass? God, you're such a poseur, umlaut. You're nothing but two measly dots. You're a Eurotrash colon lying down. Nobody thinks you're cool.
Sincerely,
Josh Abraham

Uncreative people like me wonder how the hell people come up with this stuff. Genius.

Creative, funny, and educational. The word 'dieresis' was not previously in my vocabulary.

I thought it was in mine.
Apparently it isn't about peeing all over yourself afterall.
Damn...live and learn.

Never fear. You've still got a word that fills that void in your vocabulary: Diuresis.
