People (specifically indecisive people) who type emails the way they talk. "I'm a bit concerned because xyz does zyx. No, wait, actually you can get xyz to do abc, as well. Never mind, it should be fine."

I’m indecisive, but it makes absolutely no sense to send an email like that.

I often do stream of conciousness on here (which is why half of my posts are a mess) but in a professional email for work or something I’d always ensure it made sense.

So am I, but this drives me nuts.
There was other context. But still, a completely unneeded section of text.

Text? OK, since it’s a broken conversation.
Here? OK, since it doesn’t actually matter and it’s funny, but I will make fun of you :)
Work email? srsly?

I’ve done something *like* this. Leading a line of conversation and ending with “so it’s probably fine”. My purpose, though, is to let anybody who might know a reason my thoughts are *wrong* see how I came to conclude something. CYA, in other words. “Speak now or forever hold your peace”.

That’s a little more “FYI” and a little less “contradict myself”.

Haha I’m fine with being mocked for my strange grammar.
I hate unprofessional work emails though, I always want to send back “Y U NO EXPLAIN PROPERLY.” People need to get shit done not read through a load of nonsense.
