I went on a lad email reading bender yesterday and today I sent a co-worker an email and ended it with "Please respond soonest" without even thinking about it.....SMH. I hope she just chalks it up to me smoking too much crack. Has this happened to anyone else? Or am I alone on this one? Embarassed

It happens.

Often.

There is a support group somewhere...if I can find the link Wink

"Hi, my name is Scamzilla and I send emails that make me sound like English is my third language, I have been sober for........8 hours. I know that admitting that I have a problem is the first step to recovery, but with all of your support I know I can kick this habit." Laughing

I've found that at work I tend to respond to my co-workers the way one of my baiting characters would. Try explaining to your boss that you meant "mental malfunction" in the nicest possible way Embarassed

But, you don't really want to kick the habit...none of us do.

That is why Eater is such a neat place. Wink

I love baiting, and I have no intention of stopping. I just need to prevent my baiting life from bleeding into my real life. I'll get better at it with time. And I have been learning a lot for you folks and it's great. I haven't had much need to use photo editing software in the past, it was always so complicated. I recently found some editing software that is very user friendly. I think it's really going to take my baits to the next level, so many possibilities.

^^ PF is the Master of Photo Shop

pm him, please, he loves getting to show off his skills Laughing

You will have to forgive me, I haven't memorized all the member abbreviations yet, who is PF? Or is that username simply PF?

Pastor Frank, our resident Canadian.

Well, Canadian in denial...you don't want to say anything to him about this.

I work with a Canadian, he's a good guy, we just have to talk to him very slowly. Laughing

Not quite a Newb Joined: 14 Jul 2005 Posts: 41

Yes, like dangerous, wild beasts Laughing

PF really isn't a Canadian, but does have some pathological issues with them.

That's why we try to heal him....again, I'm not suggesting that you do so. He is vicious for a Non-Canadian, and seems to sense when his name has been mentioned.

Oh ok, "I like all Canadians, they are good people, I have never taken issue with any Canadians, they have a good health care system and make excellent hockey players, great maple syrup as well." In case he senses anything. Wink

^^^TS your avatar looks so angry now. Is that the rabid bunny suit? We can get some shots for it. We can just pass a hat around. I'll donate $2. Yeah, I know, I'm cheap. That's why I like baiting, it's practically free.

It. Is. A. Wolf. Suit. Wolf Suit.

Oh, rabid wolf, I get it, we can still give it some shots. All kidding aside, it's pretty cool looking. Did you make that yourself?

Sorry I have ADD and I was never medicated for it, thus I didn't read much as a kid. Too busy chasing butterflies and shinny objects outside. Embarassed

Dear Americans,

The Canadians are suspiciously polite, have amassed 90% of their population along the border, and if you have ever been drinking with one you know how crazy they can get. That said protect your alcohol reserves and women accordingly. Laughing

..... Russians, and other Eastern Europeans mess me up with sentence structure quite a bit when I have to email them a lot. My emails after the fact become very dry. Laughing

Lads, I have had the same problem here and there but not nearly as bad as when I have to email Russians for half the day.

They do, on occasion. [/passive aggressive Minnesota hockey player]

^^I was just about to page you, PF.

Ask PF for some of his pickle recipes. Thumbs up

Over the moon is what I'm saying.

Even though I'm just a n00b, the lingo in here rubs off a bit.

Yesterday my boss mailed me a "to-do-list" of tasks to be done while he's away on holiday, and it took me all my strenght not to reply "content read and well understood". Embarassed

^^I do that, too, Eressea. It comes out pretty amusing in site killer language: "Here are the reasons this task is flawed:"
I catch myself when I realize I don't have a database entry to cite.

Can I just say you advance-fee and inheritance baiters have it easy? Try to explain to your coworkers why you keep referring to them as "sexy darling" and "my king" and signing memos with "xoxoxo your love muffin"... Rolling Eyes

^^^You gotta watch it with that, next thing you know they are gonna have you go to sensitivity training and you will have to watch videos about the importance of not staring at people in a creepy way while rubbing your belly button. Not that I would know anything about that.....but a guy I know.....Ok it was me, yeesh, stop badgering me. Embarassed
