No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

I'm taking a poll: Who here either uses or receives serious business e-mail that seriously uses emoticons?

I have received e-mail from a manager that, in all seriousness, used multiple emoticons.

I replied: "Seriously? ':)'?

You weren't a business major, were you?"

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've gotten emails from the head of my department using emoticons.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I never received a business email with emoticons. Athough it's been well over 3 years since I've worked in a professional setting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Judicious emoticons I can handle. Chatspeak I never forgive, and I've gotten way too much of that.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Turns out truffles HAVE been cultivated and, that, in 1900 they were much more common and most people used them a lot.

They only have them when it rains. But they are there.

aha! the damp! I remember when we lived there, the rain was always cause for great celebration. Happened once or twice a year.

You have a garage?

No, but my parents do. And yesterday I woke up when two 70 pound labradors bounced on the bed and tried to taste my face. Good times.

My default assumption is that if you can ski in Africa, the unlikeliest things happen. Also, never discard the efficacy of mad money.

I didn't think I'd missed the presence of a garage at your place.

E-mail still not written. People on the internet still stupid.

Judicious emoticons I can handle. Chatspeak I never forgive, and I've gotten way too much of that.

This is my feeling on the matter.

Why do they call the chocolate truffles "truffles" anyway? Wasn't that name already taken?

Why won't my spa allow me to schedule a bikini wax and a leg wax on the same day or within a few days of each other online? I'm going to have to call and see what's up. What is the use of an online appointment scheduler if you can't make the appointments you need without calling the place?

Some of these questions may be rhetorical.
