Every work email I send:
Hey!
Sorry to bug you!
Was just wondering
(If it’s not too much trouble)
Would it be possible to do thing you said you’d do?
Totally fine if not!
Prob my fault anyway I’m an idiot 🙂
Sorry to bother you!

"per my last email" = "In case you suddenly can't read"
"To reiterate" = "this is the last time I'm saying this"
"moving forward" = "Don't try me again"
"I've copied ______" = "Let's see you lie your way out of this bitch"
"Kind Regards" = "Fuck you" https://t.co/SSOjfNWddi— This Ken is Manic (@TheBlackHermit) October 17, 2018
