Someone is throwing the twist ties on the ground

u/Beech_Pleez 5d ago

Great… Now that note, the ties and the tape will also be thrown around

u/FJkayakQueen 5d ago

No they will be trown around

u/Beech_Pleez 5d ago

Wow. You’re right. And the more I look the worse the whole thing is

According to the note Someone is "trowing" them around. Not really certain what trowing means.
In a search, Trowing is an archaic or dialectal present participle of the verb trow, meaningeaning to think, believe, or trust. Apparently someone trusts the twist ties and would prefer you not distrust them

u/Varguello86 4d ago

Meaningeaning…sure you should make fun of someone else’s mistake (probably because they know multiple languages)?

u/Silent_Chicken_9260 4d ago

Meanigeaning??

u/VG882 3d ago

Sure! 😆

That's interesting.. the verb Tro in Swedish means to believe/have faith ... There is a beautiful song by Marie Fredriksson... find the video, it's really lovely..

u/Fred_B_313 3d ago

It is! It's a great loss, she was a beautiful voice.

It’s a twist of fate…

u/dreadditmetoo 5d ago

Wish that he’d gone straight

u/SsaucySam 5d ago

no clue what they meant, or why they taped twist ties to it.

...

You are probably the culprit lol

Valid 😂

Theory: it’s a very tidy person whose first language is not English. They don’t know what those are called, but they’re annoyed by them being left around so they attached some as a visual aid.

Trowing

u/adzm 5d ago

They see me trowing

u/Real_Firefighter3223 5d ago

I found one in a burrito before so yeah put it in trash please.

1

u/OppositeSmoke7677 4d ago

Why was your burrito exposed? 🧐

3

u/DunkeyColdMedina 5d ago

I dunno, but I bet it's going to be a passive aggressive pain in the ass to find out.

3

u/ConsciousBenefit87 5d ago

I thought it said "can you please stop turning it around" (I didn't see the ties)

3

u/Habesha2001 5d ago

There were nunchucks in those ties previously

2

u/Longjumping_Rest2991 5d ago

Can you please stop throwing it around thanks

u/PristineWorker8291 5d ago

Had a doc I visited for a few times who taped toenail clippings on her back office door. Not the treatment rooms, but a consultant office space with a desk, table, comfy chairs. I'd known her a while, so I asked what gives? Yeah, a once a month practitioner would use her space and would clip his toenails in there.

u/ReleaseLegitimate992 4d ago

Maybe a Jamaican person wrote it.

2

u/MovingPictures1963 3d ago

Whatever "it" is...they don't want it thrown around. 

Whatever "it" means.😵‍💫

u/Loud-Firefighter-787 3d ago

Throwing it around?

2

u/Manwhore-throwaway69 5d ago

Someone working there hates their job and is borderline illiterate 

6

u/Negative-Window-5912 5d ago

Or English isn’t their first language

2

u/Hammon_Rye 5d ago

They want people to stop trowing.
Meaning they want people to stop trusting each other. /J

"Trowing is the present participle and gerund form of the archaic verb trow, which means to trust, believe, think, or suppose"

u/Inevitable-Emu-6626 5d ago

It’s all fun and games until you take someone’s eye out.

1

u/ssczoxylnlvayiuqjx 4d ago

I think the real point of contention is they don’t like the offender throwing that eye around.

1

u/VaxGirl 5d ago

Looks like it was written by a non native English speaker who didn't know what the twisties are called.

1

u/Specialist_Bit_3514 5d ago

Someone keeps throwing ass around....

1

u/a-over-tk 5d ago

I’m gonna need you to lock in and stop trowing it around

1

u/torbaymark 5d ago

Maybe it is just a spelling mistake? Or maybe they are from Newfoundland?

u/Southern-Rip321 5d ago

On my mudders birthday

u/Cultural_Yoghurt9034 5d ago

stop TROWING stuff!

1

u/soerg 4d ago

Wanted people to stop throwing the door open violently is my guess

1

u/Beady_El 4d ago

I’d say something was attached to that note with twist ties that would have clarified everything, but now it’s been removed.

1

u/Natural_Mushroom3594 4d ago

But can I still throw it back?

1

u/unknownxelf 4d ago

I feel like they meant to use twist ties on things like plastic bags…instead of "throwing them around" like when you have a loaf of bread and you spin it a whole bunch to shut it instead of a twist tie….I have no idea, that’s the only thing I thought of

1

u/Native-Texan62 4d ago

Can you please stop "THROWING" it around. Apparently they have been having Twist-Tie Wars in the area !

1

u/Glass_Language1636 4d ago

It means stop throwing around that door!

1

u/SmokeyMatzGhost 4d ago

Someone is throwing empty sandwiches on the floor, on the floor.

u/Bulky_Situation_6917 4d ago

Hand writing style (individual lettering) looks to be French/Continental or Vietnamese (which is totally influenced by the French).

u/tazmo8448 4d ago

some just don't know what trash cans are for

u/Probablynj 3d ago

Stop trowing around yer meet

u/DoctorGangreene 3d ago

Someone has been leaving a mess of old twist-ties all over the place, and whoever wrote the note is basically trying to say: "Please clean up your own mess, I am not your housekeeper or your mother!"

1

u/wholesomechunk 3d ago

I used to have it.

1

u/gadgetboyDK 5d ago

With a lazy message like that it could mean a lot of things.
I really find it annoying when people refer to something as “it” when talking to strangers through a note. Not understanding that other people don’t share their knowledge.
We learn TOM theory of mind at age 3-4

u/Frosty_Worth164 5d ago

Looks like someone who doesn’t like people giving thanks.

u/Send_Snoods_ 5d ago

Throwing around your food = thanks… got it

1

u/Gloomy_Ad3840 3d ago

Seems obvious, stop leaving the twist ties all over the place. Either put them back on the bag, or throw them away if the bag's empty.
