How to write a complaint letter to The Tab

An easier way to whine!

| UPDATED

Many readers of The Tab feel the need to go to the comment section to intellectually discuss why the post they read was not interested or engaging in a dignified and friendly manner (yeah, right). Since many people who do so struggle with using correct grammar or even spelling their own name correctly, here’s a guideline complaint letter to copy and paste. Remove the irrelevant answers and send it to us via email. It’ll keep the comment section clean, and it will be read by a member of The Tab’s brilliant team. And that’s a Tab promise*.

(*Not an actual promise)

It’ll save you the bother of writing comments this long. It happens a lot, y’know.

Dear [Sir/Madam/Bastard],

I am writing to [complain/whine/bitch/snivel] about the article you wrote on the topic of [students/lads/hipsters/politicians/art/my friend Alan], written by some proper [lad/wanker/moron/prick/cow/square/hipster/farty-breath]. I found it to be a [dreadful/abominable/irritating/time-wasting/strangely sexual] read.

The reason why I think it was terrible is because [it was poorly written/it opposes my views on the topic/I think it was poorly researched/I have no hobby or job and whining in the comments is something I do instead/there are no memes/there are too many memes/I like page three/fuck you]. I could write a better article even if you gave me [at least seven seconds to write it/seventeen bottles of vodka/a concussion].

“And I put: ‘all your articles are shit’. Ain’t I cool, ladies?

You should feel ashamed for writing such rubbish, and I will never [read your articles again/stop talking about how much The Tab is shit until you shut it down/buy your t-shirts]. I am going to write a frank and stiff letter to [The Sun/The Daily Mail/The UKIP/my Students Union].

So go on, email us at [email protected] – we’d love to hear you rant.
