You know, that actually made me laugh. Not done that in a while.

Then again, I get wierd emails sent to my inbox from people thinking I’m the founder of the Burning Man festival thing. Very strange emails indeed.

That guy reminds me of all the AOL’ers you get on “hacking” forums that say “omg how u hax hotmail lolz?”.

Sad, but hilarious.

How many other countries use that ‘GPA’ grading system besides the US? By the looks of it, it is most likely someone who lives in the southern hemisphere (25 of December result posting). Could be from south America, or south east Asia or perhaps even the south Pacific. I would think anyone from Africa, India and other eastern state who have access to the internet would a little better grammar than this. Nonetheless, it was a fun read.

Cheers mate

Reality check! If this guy is not yanking our collective chains, well I’m sorry to say: It’s a far,far better place to which he’s headed. I’m not losing any sleep over it. I studied my ass off, and worked two jobs, and babysat my live-in, multiple substance abusing, insane girlfriend to get through college. When I got kicked out of my Dad’s house mid-semester for partying a bit too much was when it occurred to me to develop that insane work ethic. My Dad was a computer programmer, but instead of crying to him to do something which could have landed him in jail, and cut him off from his livelihood, I decided to be a man and step up, or go down swinging. The funny thing about this letter, is it isn’t that much different than the trifling-ass, ignorant, slaughtering-my-language type of bad grammar and spelling faux-pas’ that is the norm on ANY help file or documentation that comes with corporate software. These dildos want me to pay $99.00 for a piece of software that sucks, and not take 5 (seriously) minutes to proof-read the frakkin instructions! In other words, this guy didn’t reply to any of these posts because microsoft snapped him right up to be their editor-in-chief for their software help file dept. I’ll be looking forward to the embellism that will coincidentally end my life as I agonize over a set of instructions that an 8 year old could have made more clear. Hey, if his “fathers” puts him out of his misery, it’s just “culling the herd” baby! I mean, there might be someone out there who wouldn’t be wasting space at that university.
P.S. Jon shared this with us, (‘cuz let’s face that shit was gold) just as he’s shared so much other stuff with us. I don’t even know what the guy looks like, but I know more about him than most of my immediate family members. Knowing that no one can please all of the people, all of the time, how ignorant is it of those of you who were offended to post the way you did. As a matter of fact, speaking of bad grammar, total ignorance of basic punctuation, sentence structure, or spelling…

I’m brazilian and sure it was some brazilian guy who sent the message. It is quite clear for me that he wrote “portuguese in english”, using literally translated expressions that are nonsense in english but very usual in Brazil (when spoken in portuguese, naturally).
