Dear WFNX,

Thank you for NOT calling the ticket winners of the would-be Second Annual WFNX Goth Ball to tell them that the event was canceled. No, instead your receptionist told us that they were informed NOT to contact the winners, although you had previously called to confirm their ticket winnings.

Really, please don't give me your pearl-clutching moralizing from said receptionist. I mean, if that's what you're paid to do, much respect, you deserve a raise. But you even tried to tell me that I wasn't a customer???

I suppose your commercials—and industry-induced Jonas Brothers/Offspring hybrid crap that you sometimes play—isn't a function of the fact that, yes, you are a business, and yes, we are customers. Anyhow, it clearly isn't our responsibility to SEEK OUT the fact or to listen "just in case" the event to which we were invited was canceled.

Can you imagine showing up at Hurricane O'Reilly's dressed up like your inner goth fag? Nothing like getting your latex-wearing ass kicked by a bunch of drunken jocks or frat boys on the streets outside the Banknorth Garden. It's not that I could give a crap whether or not I go to your stupid goth ball. Just get your heads out of your collective ass, please.
