that evil klez virus.

i'm sure there's no one in fandom whose name it's not using by now. i get emails purporting to be from... everyone, practically. i know they aren't really from them. i delete them. it's the virus.

so what does surprise me is that anyone in existence could be unaware of the virus. apparently someone is, because just now i get an email consisting only of 'please stop emailing me blank emails thanks.' um?

no one likes getting virus emails. no one. and we're all going to be stuck with it until everyone in the known universe does that time-consuming thingy you have to do to get rid of it, and even then, who knows. maybe by then other people will be re-infected. it's like the common cold. we're all stuck with it. we all get five of these a day.

i could send out a snappish and testy response, but i won't. ::performs breathing exercises::

oh, i want to. but. eh. it's so much energy spent on being vituperative to a twit who may not even believe me when all's said and done.

yeah, that's the thing. the people who are most worthy if this kind of thing are also the least likely to shut up and listen. hmph.
