Ok, I recently got an email from a midday DJ. She was a bit aggravated with some password issues.
------------------------------------
OK......I've been dicking with this password crap with you guys for almost 2 F ---ING years.=A0 I'm so GOD D---mned disgusted, I swear it makes me not even want to look at your site any longer.DO NOT OFFER ME HELP AGAIN.......Just email me when you guys have your shit together.
------------------------------------
She wasn't lying either. She actually has been a member for almost 2 years, although she has never posted. Now I do not remember ever helping this woman, nor did Imp. That's not saying we haven't, but we answer a lot of mail and unless they post a lot, everyone starts running together. Anyway, since she explained her issue and politely asked us to give her some help...I figured I would give her a hand.
------------------------------------
You say "AGAIN" as if we have helped you before. Myself nor Imp do not recollect helping you at all, and if we ever did, it was not a memorable occasion for either of us. Sounds like you have browser issues, as 1000 other users are not having problems.
I could give you a few helpful suggestions as there are some simple browser steps that can be done that resolve the password issue 99 percent of the time, but I don't really respond well to these type of emails as patiently as Imp does, and unfortunately, I got to this before she did.
So the only help I could possibly give you is to simply tell you to go into the options of whatever browser you are currently using and then promptly fuck off. Personally, I could care less if you ever looked at our site again at all. I can promise you, the thought of you never returning to our site will not interrupt my nightly game of punch-the-hooker-in-the-mouth-before-sleeping-like-a-baby.
So how about this, [name removed], we promise to continue never listening to you and your shitty radio station (Eddie Money for God's sake? You all should have your radio station nuked) if you promise to never come back to us again. Deal?
And btw, we will NEVER have our shit together. We like it better that way.
------------------------------------
UPDATE!!!
I gave it a few days to give them time to reply, but alas, I think our communications have ended. Shortly after I posted the above, I recieved another email. This time I was not the recipient, as was CC'd into an email. Seems as if I was never actually communicating with the actual DJ...if you are to believe the following email.
------------------------------------
Hey guys....
After being out for almost 2 weeks, this is what I come back to? I leave my email open in the news room for you to capture details from news sources not to cuss them out. Let me get one thing straight DO NOT EVER USE MY NAME OR EMAIL ADDRESS TO CUSS ANYONE EVER...If there is not an available Login/Password for a site there is good reason and I think the response you got back from these folks best illustrates why we don't reference certain news sources in our broadcasts. Got it? The last thing I need is a digruntled Eddie Money Fan on my email list. I don't appreciate you guys not telling this "person" on the other end that it wasn't me. So I guess everyone has a laugh at my expense while I'm out. If this happens again I will go immediately to Mr. [NAME REMOVED] and I'll have the last laugh. I will ask [NAME REMOVED] to block this site from our system and whoever is responsible for this may want to come in the Control Room and speak to me face to face.
------------------------------------
I know, I know...seems a bit too convenient. But I thought the bolded line was pretty telling. But I gave her the benefit of the doubt and thought I would help her out at the same time...especially after I was able to get full contact info for the names she spills out in her email.
------------------------------------
Hey guys, I want to say thanks for including us in your inner-office bitch-fests. 25+ people are attached to this admin email and we all agree, it has been enlightening. Our members are gonna LOVE this one. Most blogs like ours figured you slack ass radio stations simply copy our stories and reprint them without citing us as a source, but never have we actually had an email with anyone admitting to it. Thanks for the confirmation.
I just hope Mr. [NAME REMOVED] and [NAME REMOVED] will enjoy the email I may be sending them half as much as I am enjoying these. I'm sure [NAME REMOVED] will want to know the bang-up jobs you all are doing with all the admitted plagiarism. [NAME REMOVED] will probably get a KICK out of email accounts being left open for 2 weeks so that anyone can do whatever they want.
And [NAME REMOVED], you DO have a login and password for our site, you have had it for a couple years. I can resend you initial signup for you if you would like. See, I just saw your picture for the first time. You are pretty hot. That means I am willing to put up with a little extra aggravation and go that extra mile. If you still want your password fixed, just let me know. Anytime. *wink* *wink*

And no, I didn't actually email her boss or the tech guy. I'm an asshole, but not that big of an asshole. I just like makng them squirm a bit.
Oh, and keeping with the theme, press play and listen to some Peeping Tom and bask in all the glory it exudes.
