GOD! I* HATETHIS! Seems every time I get a* STUPID** joke in my e-mail these days, some ass hole is compelled to add 150 empty lines between the last paragraph and the punch line. And in between they*** ALWAYS*** write some cooutsey wootsey fucking thing like, are you ready, or you asked for it, or wait-here it comes - how much more fucking annoying can you get! And the number of blank lines and stupid “watch out” tags is always proportional to how idiotic the joke is, if it were a GOOD joke the punch line would stand on its own, you wouldn’t have to pad it out with fucking stupid false anticipation - SHEESH! You make sound as if the orgasm of my life is on its way, you also make it sound as if I ASKED for this. GRRrrrrrr!! Honestly! When you tell a joke to your frineds, do you say to them, "Why did the chicken cross the road?..wait for it, here it comes, you asked for, this is the funniest thing you ever herd, your gonna die, - TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE! Bwahahahah! I don’t think so.
Not much of a rant, I know but I have wanted to say this for months, I even see this here on the SDMB, well CUT IT OUT its fucking stupid!
not as bad as forwarded email jokes where you have to wade through forty thousand lines of
>>lakdfghladfhjkg
>>dfkgh
>>>fklgbasflgjal
>>fgjklbhadfkbhfd
>>>>dfklbhadig
before getting to the blank crap
To me that’s the third most annoying thing that comes in the E-mail the second is the people who mindlessly click on the “send to all” button with out trimming off the 50 miles of headers, dates and all the other crap that shows where the letter has been, and never think to use the BCC list. At least I cut and paste the note into an editor first and do a search and replace to gat rid of all the >>> and other crap that comes down the pipe, but hay that’s just me, I guess I’m like the Martha Stewart of E-mail, everyone should be as perfect as me. Maybe I’ll start issuing licensees for the internet, no using the information superhighway without your liscence.
I can also see by the lack of response to this thread that you all clearly agree with me.
Not to be a ‘me too’ poster but I dislike all that gobbledy gook at the top of the message from forwarding, as well. I gotta wonder if it’s possible to get carpal tunnel syndrome in your index finger from excessive scrolling.
