I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Monkeys have syntax!

Not many places on the Web you'd find an exclamation mark after that sentence.

Well, no. Actually, there are a lot of them, but that's mostly because a lot of people have forgotten that the period exists.

In tangentially related news, there was a display of bananas at the local Food Lion with a sign above them: "Feel like a snack!!!" I felt very bad for disobeying, given how much they seem to care about it.

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

...whenever someone sends me a douchey e-mail. Which, in customer service, is often.

It is, in fact, the definition of the job.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Happy Birthday, tommyrot!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy Birthday to me
I live in a tree
I act like a monkey
I look like one three

Thanks for all the b-day wishes! I'm celebrating by listening to my iPod's random selection of songs that I've given five stars....

Punishingly Intricate

I'm celebrating by listening to my iPod's random selection of songs that I've given five stars....

What a great way to celebrate!!! I may have to start rating my songs in preparation for copying this idea for my birthday (or maybe for days when I'm feeling down).

Happy Birthday, Tommy!

It is, in fact, the definition of the job.

Indeed. I just got one that ended with, "Please correct." And I thought, "It is entirely possible that I made a mistake when entering the information. I am human, after all. But first, perhaps, we should consider that you misspelled Lawyer's Name, which I noticed and corrected for you because I am conscientious like that. Now, if you'd like me to incorrect my correction just so you can find Lawyer's Name again, please let me know."

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, tommyrot!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Indeed. I just got one that ended with, "Please correct."

I think you should post all of those e-mails here throughout the day, so we can help you compose responses.

Dear Sir,

The name as entered in the database is correct. Please see my sources here, here, and here. NEVER DOUBT ME AGAIN.

Sincerely,

shrift
