Freak of the Week #13 -- Dan (revisited again)
10/04/1999

This week, I'm going for pumpkin colors. I'm feeling festive. Posting a few freaks tonight, nothing special or different from the usual freak mail. Sometimes we have to settle for average, illiterate freaks when nothing spectacular arrives in my mailbox.

You might remember Dan, from an earlier freak session. Click here to view more writings from the poster- boy for literacy. I generally don't respond to Dan, simply because I don't have any idea what he is trying to say. I maintain that we need better school teachers, drugs are bad, and mental patients should not be allowed to have web TV.

Subject: you are a foxy girl

i think its so cool that a girl so cute as you can be on like tv you should be a star from your fan chip heres my pict ok

(no, I didn't post this picture..trust me, it was for the best)

(note...this mail was one of 8 sent to me within a 30 minute period, during which I was away from my computer. Starts out nice enough. Flash forward..8 mails later...along with over 25 instant messages sent via AOL. Keeping in mind that I was not even at the computer, he received no response...yet kept up the incessant messaging like some obsessed moonie. By the time I came back to the screen..I was not in the mood to acknowledge him. If he pesters me that much when I'm not there..what the heck would he do if I actually talked to him? Finally...as it became apparent that he was a moron, I sent him a message telling him to stop annoying me and that I was not interested in talking to him...this led to the following perfect freak email)

Dear Mr. Personality,

First off, anyone who starts out correspondence with someone they don't know by calling them 'a foxy girl' should never expect a response. Secondly, don't send pictures of yourself to strangers. If I want to see a picture of you, I'll tell you. I'm going to ignore your obvious lack of intelligence at this point because I only have so much space here. I'll just suggest some adult education classes...grammar is your friend.

That said, let's get to the root of the matter. This may be hard for you to understand, so I'll try to be very clear: I choose who I do and do not talk to. You do not make yourself more attractive to get to know or chat with by sending multiple emails and messages. This does not just apply to me, this applies to anyone you will ever meet via the internet. Your concept of 'personality' seems to match my concept of an annoying pest. Do you ever actually read the messages you send? Perhaps you should. If you think that by reserving the right to choose who I strike up a chat or email conversation with I am being stuck up, then so be it. I don't think I could stomach too much interaction with your marvelous personality and charm.

Love always,

Aimee
