British passive-aggressiveness at its finest
What’s the deal with people who don’t like to close the gates behind them? This is what perplexes this British guy, who had no option but to post up this sign. It’s critical to keep the doors closed so that intruders are kept out.
You can’t do anything about it if the gates are constantly left open, so you have no choice but to confront them. This is the most passive-aggressive way of addressing a person. It’s still civil and even invites a discussion. The author even remembered to say thank you.
