IT MAKES ME SCREAM

…every time the library e-mails a “Courtesy Pre-Overdue Notice.”
JUST CALL IT A DUE NOTICE. As in, “On this date your library books are due.” The words “pre” and “over” are redundant. Unneeded. Unnecessary. Pointless. You get the picture.
aaarrggghhhh

We assume you are a thief and are going to steal our books, therefore we are going to let you know that we are watching…
or
We assume you are a stoner and would rather use the pages of our books to roll joints, therefore we are going to trip you out with our rhetoric…

I just learned that in San Mateo keeping overdue books is actually a Misdemeanor potentially resulting in trial by jury. Compared to the state law of Possession of under 2 oz. which is merely an Infraction, like a parking ticket. Gotta love California.
