I was once on a massive reply-all chain. Most of the emails were “stop replying all!” But one made me chuckle. “I like these emails it makes me feel important.”

I was once in a reply all email chain where one person got so irrate at everyone else that a subreddit was created just to post memes about this person. I wish I could remember the sub name, but it was years ago and the sub probably isnt there anymore anyway.
