Something. Anything. I make it a practice to answer every legitimate e-mail within 24 hours, sooner if I can. It just makes sense. To do otherwise in this day and age is sort of like giving somebody a blank look when you're having a face-to-face conversation and you don't say something.
Okay. Rant over.
Weigh in.

Yes. Yes oh yes. Fucking... people... with their faux important lives. I've been having a protracted 2-month conversation with some cunt via e-mail. It was left last week with me saying 'So, which do you want - me sorting out your life in fashion x, or sorting out your life in fashion y', to which the cunt responded 'ok'.
What also annoys me is that I have to correspond with people by e-mail who I know full well to be earning three times my wage who are little short of illiterate. I realise that literacy is not of prime importance necessarily, but if you're trying to represent yourself, make some important decisions, you'd imagine that you'd want to get your point across in the most lucid and clear fashion. Apparently not.
AND THEN (I'm nearly done with the rant)...AND THEN there's this fucking ABSOLUTE CUNT who always asks questions!!!!! like this!!!! asif an exclamation mark!!! is some sort of fucking surrogate comma!!!!!!!!!!!! which it isn't!!!!!!!!! is it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She's always putting fucking smileys in her e-mails as well. Fucking cunt.
