Thank You, Mr. John Lindsay
===========================
I want to thank you, John, for your inspiring site
"E-mails from an Asshole" for the inspiration I've
gotten from your site.
Some people deserve to get e-mails from assholes,
faxes from assholes, letters from assholes, etc.
Today I sent a fax to a fundraising agency because
the other day a caller was rude to me.
Why is it that they have the privillege to hang up
on the addressee?
What if I hung up on them? I'll tell you what: they
would call me back saying "sorry, the call got
disconnected". When they hang up, they know I will
not call them back.
I didn't call back, but faxed them. They don't have
to know that the sender intends to be an asshole, so
I wrote one in a formal old-fashioned manner, asking
if I can donate books to them instead of reading my
credit card number over the phone.
What they don't know is that I intend to send them
a book written by Ayn Rand.
