    "If you expect your comic disregard for your company has convinced anyone, you're very much mistaken. This was to have been corrected, by you or your team, today."

    — <e-mail> from anon to anon

    Yes, but then again Kilbeggan brings out the best in me.

    I kind of liked the "comic disregard" bit, but, well, I was pretty drunk a few hours ago.

    True quote, BTW. I somewhat don't think it was wise to say so, but I don't care anymore. It's not anything with forums, just RL quote in e-mail tag with some keyboard jockey at work.

    "You just contradicted me.
    —No, I didn't.
    Yes, you did.
    —No, no, no.
    You did just then.
    —That's ludicrous.
    Oh, this is futile.
    —No, it isn't.
    I came in here for a good argument.
    —No, you didn't. You came in here for an argument.
    Well, argument isn't the same as contradiction.
    —Can be.
    No, it can't."
