It’s good to have a change of pace every now and than and what better way to do it than with humour? I was feeling particularly spontaneous recently and decided to curate a collection of hilarious letters to the editor, along with my responses to them. Much like this collection of funny letters to the editor. From absurd complaints to comical anecdotes, these letters were a ton of fun to put together. So, sit back, relax, and prepare to laugh as I share some of my favorite moments from this comedic collection.

Free Coffee For Every Citizen

“Dear Editor, I’ve noticed that every time I drink coffee, I become more productive. Can you please ask the government to provide free coffee to every citizen?”

“Dear Reader, though I’m sure this would be a hugely popular idea, the government tends to be quite unproductive with these requests. You might want to consider investing in a personal espresso machine for the office, but be warned, your competition might start to envy your productivity!”

The Disappearing Sock

“Dear Editor, I have a serious problem. My cat keeps stealing my socks. Can you please publish an article on how to train cats not to steal socks?”

“Dear Reader, I could, but are you sure it was your cat? There is a little known phenomenon known as ‘object swallowing wormholes.’ These things are no joke! They swallow up anything in their path. Socks, keys, the remote and even the kids’ missing homework they tried to blame the dog for. They don’t care what it is as long as they can swallow it. Sometimes they give your stuff back and sometimes they don’t. Good luck finding that sock! It might end up where you least expect.”

Where are the Unicorns?!

“Dear Editor, I am writing to complain about the scarcity of unicorns in our city. I think the local government should do more to attract unicorns to our parks and gardens.”

“Dear Reader, I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble spotting unicorns in our fair city. I forwarded your concern onto local government officials as requested. They are aware of the lack of unicorns and will address it as soon as the dragon infestation is under control. They believe this is the reason the unicorn population have dwindled in recent years.”

The Weather Refund Policy

“Dear Editor, I am writing to express my disappointment with the weather. Can you please ask the weatherman to be more accurate, or at least give us a refund for the days when it rains?”

Dear Reader, I’ve spoken to the weatherman and he says the machine that controls the weather is on the fritz again. Unfortunately there’s no ETA on when it will get fixed. He says the repair person is as unpredictable as the weather is! He can’t offer refunds but he’ll gladly give you a rain cheque for a sunny day.”

Maybe it Can Wait...

“Dear Editor, I recently read an article in your paper about the dangers of procrastination. I was going to send a letter responding to it, but I kept putting it off.”

“Dear Reader, I appreciate the irony of your response. Apparently it wasn’t a very effective article as I too kept putting off my response to you. I’ll have to let the writer know right away that the article needs to be more convincing…or perhaps it can wait.”

Laughter is the Best Medicine, as They Say.

To conclude, it has been so much fun sharing these hilarious letters to the editor with you. Nothing brings more amusement than watching people vent in the most ridiculous way possible. I hope these letters have brought a smile to your face and brightened your day. This collection is just the beginning, as there are still more funny letters out there waiting to be discovered. So stay tuned, and I promise to bring you more hilarious letters to the editor from time to time.
