The note begins with ‘Don’t panic’!
A bouncer has been skewered for a note they left someone they took home after a heavy night of drinking. Though possibly well-intentioned, the note is being criticised on Reddit for its over-elaborate showmanship, font, and overall ‘you’re not leaving here’ vibes.
The note, which resembles a menu or perhaps a welcome sheet you’d get from a low-budget hotel, has ‘DON’T PANIC’ emblazoned across the top.
It continues: “There’s paracetamol in the top drawer and bottled water on the side. The bathroom is straight across from you.”
Then, the note breaks down questions one by one.
“Where am I?”
It explains: “In the spare room of the bouncer you were talking to last night.
“You weren’t in a state to be left alone, wouldn’t/couldn’t get in a taxi, and none of your friends were answering the phone.”
The note then details the whereabouts of various belongings, including the person’s phone, and clothes they “threw up on” – which the letter said were now being washed. Strangely, “tightfitting jewellery” was also removed.
Then, if the situation couldn’t get any more creepy, the bouncer poses “What now?”
The note reads: “Whatever you like, sneak out without a word (follow the road downhill to the city centre), or stay in bed, there’s clean towels on the bannister, possibly food in the fridge, a sticker with the WiFi password on it somewhere in the living room, Netflix on the TV and the dog loves to be played with.”
Reddit is divided on whether the note was creepy or not.
“This isn’t creepy at all, in fact, I think it’s really sweet,” wrote one user.
However, that wasn’t the general consensus.
One user said: “To me it seems very creepy! This bouncer, a stranger, took another drunk (vulnerable) stranger to their home, undressed them and put them to bed and then is happy to let them stay and use their home like a hotel? Bonkers!
“Almost like the beginning of a serial killer film or something. The person tries to leave the house only to find they are locked in and can’t escape.”
