I came into work the other day and I saw this posted in the break room.



I asked around and no one seemed to have any idea about the person who left it. I asked one of my older co-workers who is in the know a lot (she's a gossip hound), and she said "I don't know. But caller her, get some fuckin' brownies!"

So I texted her. She didn't answer, but eventually she called me last night. The conversation went something like this:

"This is Tim."
"Hey this is [muffled] (assistant?) (assisted?) "Assisted" makes sense, if she's a customer I helped. I [muffled] brownies, was going to bring them up to your work. Do you work tomorrow?"
"No, actually I'm off. I could meet you somewhere? I have to go into town anyway."
"Okay, meet me at the high school at 1:30"
"Alright, sounds good."


 So there it is. In less than in hour I'm meeting a stranger after finding a mysterious note. It's like I'm starting my own real-life RPG.
Listen! Do you smell something?

Should've asked for boob pics, obviously, but brownies are cool, too.

Dude, I WOULD NOT advise taking a rocket-propelled grenade to a high school.  Nothing good will come of this.

Wasn't there an Emily a few years back? Obviously you'd know if it were the same gal, so I'm not suggesting that, but Emily isn't a particularly common name anymore.

Were it me, I'd find a way to causally slip into the conversation that you were born with only one, slightly malformed kidney. If her intention is to harvest you for parts I'd want to downplay their value from the onset.

I don't know, man; it sounded fun and interesting up until "meet me at the high school".  I can't say I followed the "muffled" part, but still...  I would worry that the Chris Hanson is going to be waiting with a camera crew. 

Seems fishy, but unless you think "Emily" is one of your college buddies with Ashton Kutcher, you definitely do not want some unknown person coming to your office.

Also, I watched the docs on the Jon Benet Ramsey so now I'm an expert... that note looks like it's written by two different people.   Just saying.

All I know is that if I'm Tim I don't reply to this thread for 17 days, just to fuck with us. If I do it's just to post "SOMEBODY CALL TH".

Yeah, I'm still not seeing the problem here.  Free brownies at the very least, and if some girl named Emily likes you enough to stop by with free brownies, who knows what else she's willing to give?

Reminds me in college when my roommate was getting mail around Valentine's Day with cards and letters. He was also getting packages from the same person with scorpion suckers and even sea salted crickets....It was very weird. To this day, he still has no clue who sent those to him

Wow, I need to think of somebody to start doing that to. Easter's coming up. Seems like a reasonable day to be creepy and mischievous.

creepy or not creepy. Trap or no trap, there still seems to be the problem of it being at work and getting involved with someone at work usually gets messy. That's the biggest red flag I am feeling

Also, my ex fiance was named Emily and she raped my soul, so that doesn't help too much either.

Make sure to take some 'Mikes Hard Lemonade' also, goes well with brownies.
