It's my journal and I'll spam if I want to...
And for the love of all that is holy and sacred, the word is YOU. YOU. Not U. Not u. YOU.

You know what drives me crazy?
(Crazier, at least.)
When someone either newly subscribes to a mailing list, or goes away from the list for a while, then comes back and decides to answer EVERY SINGLE POST they missed. One at a time. All at once. In the last 45 minutes, I've gotten no fewer than five emails from the same person on this list. If they were well thought-out, well-written posts, it wouldn't bother me a bit. I'd be thrilled.
No. Instead, they're badly written, badly punctuated comments that all say the same thing and are the equivalent of a "me too!" or a "no, you're wrong" (with nothing backing it up). This person is, however, right about one thing: "good thing for the delete key."
