I wrote these super-cute ads for Airbnb to tell people how much we absowutely wuv paying our taxy-waxies. Some people mistakenly found the tone to be a bit passive aggressive - which was absolutely adorable of them - and we were more than happy to apologize to anyone who incorrectly found themselves to be offended... on behalf of their own stupid idiot brains. 

I wrote these at TBWA/Chiat/Day who are a really great bunch of people to work with. Along with my official copywriting duties, my other main role there  - it transpired - was collecting all the coffee cups that had been left ADJACENT TO to the dishwasher and putting them IN the dishwasher. 

Which was absolutely fine, not a problem. Although, as I made clear in a series of post-it notes, I’m not a cleaner; I was more than happy to do it because I just feel that a presentable kitchenette is something that benefits everyone, you know? But maybe that’s just me…

Seriously guys it's fine. If anything I should be thanking YOU. At least you brought your cups most of the way to the dishwasher – probably over 99% of the way!! Obviously that final 1% stretch was too much to ask. I get that. I do get that.

At least it meant I only had to waste 45 minutes of my day loading your filthy fucking coffee cups into the dishwasher for you. Just think, if I had to go all the way to each of your individual workstations to collect your coffee cups AS WELL AS loading them into the dishwasher it would’ve taken up even more of my precious time that was supposed to be allocated to writing award-winning copy.

So thank you for THAT!
