bad behavior
one of the advantages to having email, is that you can communicate very quickly with someone.
one of the disadvantages, that people don't know how to use email. we have been using email for quite a while now and somehow, people don't know how to use it.
recently, i have noticed how many people use extra large fonts in their email. as if i can't see it. or, the colors. i love the colors. the colors are bright purple or light or psychedelic. those are my favorites.
but my most favorite, the best of all, is the people who use the large fonts, the bright colors, and all caps. priceless. why do people do that in email? are they attention seeking? do they desperately want me to notice them?
i have to email a person regularly who does this. i am starting to equate this to having something in your teeth or a booger. do you say something? can you say something? i it too embarrassing to say something? or do you just let it go?
I bet this person also forwards sparkly animated gifs of angels, too.
You could politely say, "Look, my eyes are very sensitive, and I can't read your e-mails very easily." That might work.
Nobody wants to walk around with a booger hanging off their nose.
Dangit. Please ignore either the "also" or the "too" in my first sentence up there.
