Being wasteful and inconsiderate is not a lighthearted matter.

I'M ROLLING MY EYES AT YOU! I'm complaining about the visual
clutter. I'm complaining about your blatant disregard for 255 other
people. Just because YOU don't have to worry about wasted bandwidth and
mailbox space doesn't mean EVERYONE ELSE doesn't either. DAMN!!! WHY
ARE YOU SO DAMN IGNORANT?! Some people are paying PER KILOBIT (not
kilobyte) for their mobile data plans. If your response to this is,
"well, they should get a better plan", there is no hope for you. You
have reached the utmost in ignorance and should be locked away so as to
not further inflict your stupidity on the populous.
But, really, it's not about that whether or not someone's paying
extra for your waste. It's about the PRINCIPAL of doing something
wasteful in the first place.

I'VE ALREADY SEEN IT! WHY DO I HAVE TO LOOK AT IT AGAIN?! WHY
include the thing that gets automatically added to EVERY E-MAIL sent
through the list?! The quoting function of an e-mail client was an
invention to provide CONTEXT for your reply. That's the reason it's
there. It's NOT there so that you can blatantly and obtusely be
wasteful, regardless of your perception of the impact of that waste.
Did you read any of the content at the three sites to which I posted
links or are you just shooting this ignorance from the hip? The sites
are more researched and eloquent than I am.
I ask again: WHY are you arguing in favor of being wasteful? WHY
ARE YOU THROWING YOUR POPCORN CONTAINERS AND COLA ALL OVER THE FLOOR OF
THIS THEATER?! What makes you think that it's better to clutter up the
place than to keep it clean?
To quote a question in my previous e-mail: Why are you insisting
that multiplying completely unnecessary data 255 times is somehow better
than not doing it? <- that last question is really the simplification
of everything else; the point, if you will. If it's *not better*, WHY
do it?

How would a forum accomplish item number 2 if you replace the word
"email" with the word "forum"?
> and FYI...I don't believe ANYONE takes email threats seriously.
Did you fail reading comprehension in school? Are you just prone
to utter failure? What is all of this failure I'm reading from you?
Why do you fail so much? YOU ARE A FAILURE! Stop failing plz. :[[[
Anyway, that being said, who was issuing threats? Read, bad sir,
read and comprehend.
In case you can't figure out why I'm asking about your reading
comprehension skills as it seems that everything must be spelled out to
you: Saying, "I want to" neither means "I'm going to" nor "I shall".
