all of this shit is total chump change compared to the TS e-mail on the NSA intranet which was all straight plaintext old-skool unix style so people could make wacky ascii border boxes and artwork to automatically append to every notification, forward and reply they sent out, including the "out of the office" messages, some of these motherfuckers would dump a 18-line sig on you just because they had to wrap some inspirational quote in little monospaced pseudo-dingbats

D.O.D. IS A JOKE YEAH IT'S A JOKE
like somewhere in all the endless lectures on professionalism and customs and courtesy and personal appearance for military members working in a mostly civilian environment they completely forgot to point out that making all your personal correspondence appear as if it came from a 13-yo girl who is obsessed with Jesus Christ might sort of fuck up peoples' first and likely only impression of you
― El Tomboto, Monday, 26 November 2007 23:25 (seventeen years ago)

― BLASTOCYST, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 00:33 (seventeen years ago)
oh man people who put disclaimers and non-disclosure shit and all that on the end of their e-mail are the worst. CYA bullshit, doesn't do anything for you either, legally or otherwise
― El Tomboto, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 00:36 (seventeen years ago)

tombot jsut called my mom "the worst"
"I want all my personal and professional correspondence to present a demeanor that is overly officious, vague and paranoid, do you have anything like that in bright red times new roman?"
― El Tomboto, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 00:38 (seventeen years ago)
well jesus christ man if you work someplace with an overly officious and paranoid IT guy and he shackles you with it it's not really your fault
but that IT guy is the worst, for sure
