  • fatalfury, on 10/12/2007, -42/+97digg me down
  • holmes101, on 10/12/2007, -10/+61To get dugg down you need to say something like "I call for the execution of nanci pelosi now" (sound familiar?) or "mac sucks balls" of something like that. Writing random facts works as well. I imagine that telling someone how to get dugg down may also get you dugg down...
  • chris9902, on 10/12/2007, -15/+50watch the expert at work:

    Wii sucks, Microsoft ROXZ!!!111
  • unloud, on 10/12/2007, -10/+46No no no....The best way to get dugg down is to ask a question. The diggers hate that.
  • Endoquixote, on 10/12/2007, -13/+40Do be so hard on yourself fatalfury, things will change, it will be alright
  • Calypsoaf, on 10/12/2007, -10/+24I obviously win, most Dugg down comment in this string so far, watch and learn people. *continues to shine his Nobel Peace Prize*

    The statement is amusing.
  • wild, on 10/12/2007, -10/+19You know how to get dugg down:

    Admitting you dugg this story just because the first set of comments cracked your ass up.
  • kokorhekkus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Yep. Having family in the business can be good... but this really illustrates on of the dangers. I've seen this type of thing (on a much smaller scale) where family/spouse suddenly thinks he/she is much more important than they are. Couple that with an obvious lack of insight regarding the business it can lead to some really bad decisions.
  • martalli, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Amazing how some people never notice the "forward" button in Outlook, thunderbird, etc. Unfortunately for them, other people seem to know how it works.

    Keep your email civil, you never know where it might end up.
  • Philoushka, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australasia
    Australasia is a term variably used to describe a region of Oceania – namely Australia, New Zealand, and neighboring islands in the Pacific Ocean.

    Learn how to spell.
  • weprin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Thanks for the information. I thought it was a mistake but it turned out I was just naive. :)
  • atgunning, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6A region consisting of south-east asia and australia. Similar to Scandinavia as it refers to a region, not a political entitiy.
  • pureliquidhw, on 10/12/2007, -6/+11theoretically it should balance out to zero.
  • mhuggins, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I wonder if he knows it doesn't display right in Firefox...
  • troon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Probably not his top concern right now. However, take a look at the FrontPage-generated HTML for that simple page. Unbelievable.
  • martalli, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Good thing you made that comment in a private digg forum, so it will never get out.
  • thebaron2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4From TFA:

    "If you are emailing us or visiting our website because of the recent (inappropriate) email communication between a customer and one of our staff, we would like to advise that we regret the exchange," said CEO Klaus Jorgensen. He said the firm had apologised and the staff member had been fired. ***He did not mention the staff member appears to be his wife.***

    This is where I would file for divorce... what an idiot!
  • Pirkel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Did that seem like a terribly written article to anyone else?
  • Kale, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Doesn't display right in Safari, either.
  • psYcon, on 10/12/2007, -9/+11What a moronic wife. I hope he slaps that bitch a few hundred times for all the lost business she has caused to his firm.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I've learned the hard way that you can never trust anyone with confidential communication. Therefore, you should always try to be polite, because there are people out there that will take your words and stab you in the back.

    This recently happened in World of Warcraft. Me and some friends quit a raiding guild we had been in for 9 months because we really weren't having fun. The guild master proceeded to dig up every semi-negative thing I ever said in e-mails and the forums, gathered them up, twisted them around, and posted them on the guild forums (or mailed them to members) that I had (of course) been locked out of. Vengeful bitch.

    ***** you Erwine of Uther you psychotic bitch...*****...you straight to hell.
  • soug, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1eh nuke anything enhanced extension for ff

  • nycjap, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That was Australian for "article", mate.
  • jetskidude911, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That is funny. Just goes to show you that email can be a very dangerous thing.
  • Nipplelesshorse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oh office drama, how you make me snicker.

  • TheBarge, on 10/12/2007, -22/+15President George W Bush is the best president ever. They should change the law to allow him to run over and over and over. He's doing an awesome job in Iraq. (I'm going to win)
  • weprin, on 10/12/2007, -11/+3"The email has reached thousands of people in Australasia."

    Where is Australasia?
  • tavisjohn, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1I'll just block your lame ass! Forget about getting dugg down, or dug up in protest. You are not contributing to anything here, you are a troll, or a leach looking for any scrap of attention you can get. So a block you will go!!!

    Now I never have to see you on here ever again. By by!!!
  • portis, on 10/12/2007, -14/+3@Calypsoaf

    Give me a bit more time to catch up and I'll own your ass.
  • Sippi, on 10/12/2007, -22/+9fatalfury,
    I figured all caps would have done the job, but I guess not!
  • RipperMortis, on 10/12/2007, -25/+8>No no no....The best way to get dugg down is to ask a question. The diggers hate that.

    Why do they hate that?
  • portis, on 10/12/2007, -30/+7DIGG ME UP!!!!!! BITCHEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!
  • Calypsoaf, on 10/12/2007, -57/+9The best way is to act like you know something, but have no definitive proof that what you say is true. I wanted to post more but I've got a long day of shining my Nobel Peace Prize, it's getting a slight bit tarnished.
