HEED MY EMAILS: Part I

So lately I have decided to interact with companies as if they were my friends and I had their respect and attention.  It all started with a random rant to NBC a week ago, but that will come later.  For now, here’s my letter to Mr. Coffee.  I don’t know if many of you make your own coffee.  I do; when I do, I experience the beauty of the modern design of the carafe.  Basically, it spills water all over the place.  I mean, come on…be respectful of the environment.  I waste water by using your carafe and I waste paper towels!  That’s bad for the environment!  No…the real issue is the 3 seconds it takes me to wipe it up…anyways, here’s the letter:

(I was allotted 500 characters.  I used all of them.  Stay tuned for at least 2 more in the next couple of days and feel free to post your own in the “ask” section and I’ll post them.  They’re really quite fun to write.)

To whom it may concern,

I’ve been using your coffee makers for years.  Your carafes have always dripped water all over the counter, fact.  If I had devoted my life to developing machines that make hot coffee, I’d make sure that the containers that hold the scalding liquid mud can efficiently have liquid poured out of them without spilling it all over.  I respect design.  The coffee carafe I have was not designed with physics in mind. If there is a secret, please tell me.
Best of Luck,
Joshua
