- markusfarkus, on 10/28/2009, -0/+53I don't see what the big deal is about the Lucy Gao email. Yeah, she went a bit overboard with the instructions and advice, but it's really nothing bad. Certainly not nearly as bad as the others in the list.
- JeniBurns, on 10/28/2009, -0/+43Just....wow....I can't even imagine having the balls to use my work email to wrangle a sexual rendezvous....and I work from home!!!
Also, am I the only person alive that actually *forgets*, on occasion, to hit Reply All, instead of the other way around? - jerryjamesstone, on 10/28/2009, -0/+38I always attach nudie shots of myself to every email so I don't have to worry about a single incriminating one

Reply All: Remove me from this list - Awwzm, on 10/27/2009, -0/+29#8 - best pic and best title....oofah
- mimigins, on 10/28/2009, -0/+26Yeah I wasn't seeing the scandal in that one either.
- borez, on 10/28/2009, -2/+27Not an email, but I used to run a dance radio show with a mate of mine Huey in the early 90's. We always used to have this tongue in cheek racists banter between the two of us, he's black, I'm white, just a bit of stupid fun really.
Anyway, one day we were in the studio doing our show, I'm playing records and he's sat in a reclining chair with his feet on the table and we were having this proper tear up, calling each other all the names under the sun, just absolutely screaming at each other in fits of laughter.
Anyway, the phone rings and it's the station manageress, she's driving to work and listening to our show and she's like: " What the ***** are you two playing at, you can't say stuff like that on air?" I looks down at Huey and he's only got his ***** foot on the open mic button, basically broadcasting our complete filth to the whole of London. Not a good look really.
We managed to keep our jobs after a lot of apologising to those who control the airwaves, but we got so much grief it just wasn't funny. - hairywart, on 10/28/2009, -0/+25That's odd... she has no problem with mine
- meachen, on 10/28/2009, -1/+25the old horse fat!
- RudeTurnip, on 10/28/2009, -1/+21Not knowing the difference between "Reply" and "Reply to All" is a dangerous ignorance.
- firesights, on 10/28/2009, -0/+20This just in: Dressing in a tshirt and jeans will not get you into expensive parties where most people are going to be wearing Armani suits and expensive dresses.
- beatfarm, on 10/28/2009, -6/+24"epic" needs to stop and there has to be worse email blunders than this sad list.
- emecks, on 10/27/2009, -1/+17#8 would be better if she's said "I haven't spat in years"…
- LostOnion, on 10/28/2009, -0/+16I think that the word epic is being overused.
- JohnnySoftware, on 10/28/2009, -1/+16Yes, it is. The original B&W Macintosh, just above his right shoulder. Excel was written for the Macintosh, originally. It sold on that platform for something like a year before it became available for Microsoft Windows.
Apple programmers helped teach Microsoft programmers the skill of writing GUI application programs. That is how there were two or three applications among the small number of Macintosh applications when it first came out. And years later, Microsoft Windows/Office benefited from that combined Mac effort as well. - Moralogic, on 10/28/2009, -0/+14This is why even Radio Stations need a 2 button system like machinery. In the union world it keeps you from accidentally chopping something off, in the radio world it would keep you from making a non-public convo public.
- apr35, on 10/28/2009, -0/+12Is that a Mac in the background of the Bill Gates pic?
- spiritamx79, on 10/28/2009, -0/+12I wish my wife would swallow my 'yum' =(
- drowe, on 10/28/2009, -0/+11Since when does 'Reply All' load your entire address book? The one about the complaint at the school? I doubt the complaint was sent to the entire school population...
- borez, on 10/28/2009, -0/+9There's usually a red light that comes on to tell you you're 'on air' it dims the sound in the studio too, but because we were mixing live we always bypassed it so you could hear the decks at all times, we just balanced the sound and used a different mic to counteract the feedback.
- falconear, on 10/28/2009, -1/+10And another awesome terms for penis enters the lexicon...
- diggapleeeze, on 10/28/2009, -0/+9I've always heard it as "never say anything in an email you wouldn't want read back in court"
- thegreenspanput, on 10/28/2009, -0/+8I've seen epicer
- diggapleeeze, on 10/28/2009, -0/+7My company was involved in a lawsuit some years ago. During the deposition, the lawyer pulled out emails I had sent 8 years prior asking what I meant by what I had said. That's where I learned to never say anything in an email you wouldn't want read back in court.
- hangglide, on 10/28/2009, -1/+7If a buddy was asking you for drinks who else would be included in the "reply all" list. Not many I suspect. Number 1 sounds made up.
- kd1s, on 10/28/2009, -0/+6Please, that's why I tell everyone the best way to contact me is via email. Why? Because then I have the written record of their stupidity.
Here's a pretty clear example. I'm active in the fight for marriage equality but here are some snippets of an email exchange with the 'leader' of another organization.

- steviesteveo, on 10/28/2009, -0/+5I've heard that quite a few times. The court one is probably even more serious advice.
- nheil775, on 10/28/2009, -0/+5This is just a less funny version of the cracked article that the author actually uses as a citation. He even uses the exact same image for one of them....buried

- stephhicks68, on 10/28/2009, -0/+5Wow. I can't decide if I'm amused or horrifed
- Locastus, on 10/28/2009, -0/+4'Frasier'
- UK31337, on 10/28/2009, -0/+4Reminds me of something that happened while back at school.
Some girl left her computer logged on and one of the many cretins in my year sent out an e-mail in her name saying "I want to screw <someone else in the class's name goes here> and swallow his cum"
It went to everyone on the school's address book (about 2000 pupils, 300 teachers, 25 upper management officials including the Principal, some parents who had opted for paperless communication, outside Governors and investors, members of the exam board... you name them and they received it) and the sysadmins had to simply delete it from the Exchange server because it was far from being isolated.
That guy got severely busted and the rest of his class including myself were punished as a result because some of our final year events were cancelled. Makes you think. - BeShirtHappy, on 10/28/2009, -2/+6boys, boys, boys...
- inghamb87, on 10/28/2009, -3/+7shame she's so ugly in real life: http://claireswireonline.tripod.com/claireswire.jp ...
- JustFrozen, on 10/28/2009, -0/+4um, "reply all" only replies to everyone involved in the email to begin with. some of these dont make any sense, at least the way they were presented. it seems the author of the article doesn't understand how to use email either
- FXNGLAS, on 10/28/2009, -0/+3Unfortunately, I have clicked "Reply to all" before as well. Did not cost me my job, but I don't know what is worse... Sending the email, or having to write the apology.
- tdogg241, on 10/29/2009, -0/+3I do, but that's a habit that I'm thankful for.
- mswope, on 10/28/2009, -1/+4The first two are lessons that you should be careful with women named "Claire" and email...
- Atario, on 10/31/2009, -0/+2Also very dangerous: shortcut keys that hit "Send" without asking yes/no.
- diggdatt, on 11/02/2009, -0/+2If the damn titles and images weren't so big I'd probably read this at work.
- shoyurx, on 10/28/2009, -0/+2Good thing these comments don't have signature blocks then...
- xRadeonx, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2A good practice with emails is that if it is going to a group of people or might be offensive to anyone. Don't fill in the to:,cc:, and bcc: lines until you wrote it and your ready to send the email.
- Rudegar, on 10/28/2009, -0/+2like this ?

? - kasket, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1"emails from the Pentagon containing top-secret military information"
Top-Secret information is not sent over email on the internet. - garbagedump, on 10/28/2009, -2/+3What? No mention of the dirty joke from the FCC? Yes...it really happened:
FCC sends dirty joke to email list
http://news.cnet.com/2100-1023-225577.html&owv - Atario, on 10/31/2009, -0/+1Scenario: sender sends to a group address; you hit reply all, and the group address is where yours goes too. Careful out there.
- sfasu77, on 10/28/2009, -0/+1I don't get the collective punishment...
Was the guy at least somewhat attractive to the young lass? - ryrocker, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1the pentagon: i think we should add hottiegirl2000 to our emailing list...
- Rudegar, on 10/28/2009, -0/+1but think of the poor innocent women, who didn't fail at computers (as far as we know),
but who was still cheated out of some good old fashion DP, no women should be treated like that! :P -
