Letter #1

Dear Editor,

I have a problem. I EXIST! What should I do?

Sincerely,

Emo Kid

Response

Dear Emo Kid,

There are two solutions to your problem. They are to either spontaneously combust or to vanish into thin air. You should weigh these options out with your family before making the decision.

Teh Editor

Letter #2

Dear Editor,

My head recently fell off and I followed all of the instructions in the manual put for some reason my head still falls off. Is there a way to keep my head stable?

Sincerely,

Eugene Smith

Response

Dear Eugene,

I understand what the problem you're going through. Me, being a decapitate myself know that using the right screws to fit your head is the most important part to recapitation. Make sure on the third bolt from the axis you use a 3 inch bolt instead of a 2 inch one. Hope your head fits on nicely.

Sincerely

Teh Editor

Letter #3

Dear Editor,

I have a MAJOR problem. Whenever I press the backspace button, the last letter I typed vanishes in THIN AIR! Like it was never there!!! WHAT DO I DO!

Sincerely,

Dear Lisa,

You can calm down. Every thing is going to be all right. I have an easy solution. Use the delete key instead! So instead of the last letter you typed being erased, it's the letter in front of your cursor. I hope this helped you.

Letter #5

Dear Editor,

I've discovered that I'm hungry. Is there any way for me to cure this?

Sincerely,

Bob Fathead

Response

Dear Bob,

This is a common problem, which several people have experienced. The simplest solution is to find something edible, preferably with nutritional value, break it up into parts that can easily fit in your mouth, and then chew and swallow each of these parts. Your body will do the rest.

[Side effects may include the need to use the toilet, which results from parts of no nutritional value being expelled from the body. If this occurs you should by all means go to the bathroom and do so.]

Sincerely,

Teh Editor

Letter #6

Dear Editor,

I had an argument with my friend today, and it turned into a fist fight. I ended up with a bad bleed on my elbow. What do you recommend that I do?

Sincerely,

Anonymous

Response

Dear Anonymous,

These arguments can hurt sometimes. To make things better, I suggest washing the blood off your elbow with warm water, and then applying some sort of bandage to it. This should help the bleeding.

Sincerely,

Teh Editor

Letter #7

Dear Editor,

I swallowed a quarter a couple seconds ago and now it's stuck in my airway. My skin is turning blue and I have one question. Is my skin turning blue because of a disease?

Sincerely,

Billy Redmond

Response

Dear Billy,

Your skin is turning blue because of a terminal disease. You should consult a doctor about this disease and congratz on swallowing the quarter.

Sincerely,

Teh Editor

Letter #8

Dear Editor,

I got shot in the eye and I would like to know if there is any high-tech medical treatment to heal this?

Dear Private Parts,

Actually, there is a new medical treatment. It's called the Band-Aid. Just put it over your eye and it should heal up nice.

Sincerely,

Eight months ago, my boyfriend and I made love. Now there is a huge lump in my stomach. What is this?

Sincerely,

Well.. I think you should lay off the snacks for a bit... The lump is what we experts call "saturated fat".

Letter #10

Dear Edi-or,

Sincerely,

-ony -or-illa

Response

Dear... Tony?

We all know that simple gum can fix the problem. All of us. However, for a more "ethnic" approach, call in the tech support and see what he/she can do. If nothing fails, I would recommend eating the keyboard and purchasing a new one. Best served with mustard.

Sincerely,

Teh Editor

Letter #11

Dear Editor,

I have a major issue. I forgot how to stand. Can you teach me?

I see the issue there. I have decided to give you step by step instructions.

Thanks for your question. Please mail me back if you need to remember how to walk.

Sincerely,

Dear Editor,

I am reading the instructions correctly and everything but for some reason I still can't seem to fly! I am putting my feet together, saying the magic words, touching my nose with my tongue, doing the electric slide, pushing the Easy Button, and jumping but I'm still not flying. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

Sincerely,

Kent Clark

Dear Kent,

I see what you're doing wrong! You have to put your feet together, say the magic words, touch your nose with your tongue, do the electric slide, push the Easy Button, then do a somersault, and then jump. There ya go.

Sincerely,

Teh Editor

Letter #17

Dear Editor,

I don't know how to sing the alphabet backwards and count by thirteens at the same time by saying one letter and then one number, over and over again while riding a tiger with rabies. I know this is a simple task. Why can't I accomplish this child's play?

Sincerely,

R. E. Tardo

Response

Dear Retardo,

The answer is simple. You have down syndrome. Not only do you have down syndrome, but you have autism, and Assburgers (or cheeseburgers or whatever that disability is) too. Ya that's right. You are stupid.

Sincerely,

Teh Editor

I really would like to know if there are other colors out there. You know, like other than orange, purple, red, blue green, yellow....ect. Because there is no way of knowing because we haven't seen it yet...

Sincerely

Atticus Willabellamunch

Response

Dear Mr. Willabellamunch,

I guess the magical undiscovered color is Tinkytoob. It is.... oh I couldn't explain it cause you haven't seen it. Well you see one time I was really high after a trampolining party and when I was floating through space I discovered a new color.

Dear C. Reull,

Avoiding the police is one of my specialties. Just take a doughnut and throw it behind the cops. That should distract them long enough. Wait... you killed someone... Who'd you kill? One second... Honey! Honey? WHAT THE POOP? You killed my wife....
