I could get £10,000's rent on a safety deposit box and just put a note saying 'You're a cunt!' in it.
Then sling the key away. I'll sign it over to the person who pisses me off most without them realising it. Once the rent expires, they'll probably go in to retrieve the contents thinking that it contains something of worth. At which point the written message telling them that they're a cunt will be a revealed. The deposit box company will have a good laugh, and if it gets nicked then I'll just be calling the theieves cunts.
