    I bet your purse is too small for your fifties and your golden house too bright for your eyes, too.

    Sucks to be you, kiddo. ;p

    Are they the classic ‘you suck’ email, or the ‘you suck monkey balls and I hope you rot in hell’ ones?

    Surely you’re just asking for more by posting about it!

    I won’t email you though, just to keep the balance.

    I wish I had meaningful email once in a while. The kind you read and reply to…Right now my mails (except for a few related to work) are mostly “Thank you for joining the [topic] fanlisting!!1111!!11!” and “Get [drug name here] for free!”

    *looks at own inbox*

    I have seven emails. Four are spam. Three don’t require a reply.

    […] don’t know if all of you caught my latest aside, whining about the state of my inbox. It’s frequently above the 100-150 mark these days and I can’t seem to get it down. […]

    Gmail filters are the best thing ever. If you can filter stuff away from your inbox and put them into categories than it’s easier to mass delete stuff lol
