Email: Halloween Party

The FA sent out this email about a Halloween party he plans on hosting:

What to Bring: If you're not happy with beer, something to drink
What to Wear: A costume of some sort unless you feel you feel that your general appearance already qualifies you as wearing a costume. It will be assumed as such if you don't wear one! Additional Info: If you're female and short on a costume idea, we'll be keeping the pole up. Hopefully that helps you decide ;)

To which someone replied:

What about some guys that might need and Idea. do we get to use the pole too? Im kind of short on cash!

To which the Renter replied:

keeping the pole up and giving us ladies ideas for a costume. what kind of party are you trying to have? Looks like you are just looking for women in slut/whore gear.
guys with no ideas for a costume--come as a drag queen--go thru your girlfriends closet and go wild. we all can come in slut/whore gear. will be some
party! Lol

All of these emails used the “reply all” method of response. And then the FA started getting the hate mail. The first one I saw was from the FA’s wife’s brother who’s an aspiring rock band lead singer. “Please remove me from this list.” Uh, rock star? I always thought he was light on his feet anyway.

And then this morning I got another one from the FA:

Rule of thumb: If you don’t know “everyone” on a link. Don’t hit reply to all, especially if you choose to use offensive comments. A lot of people only use one email for work and play, and also have big brother looking over shoulder…

To which I had to reply:

Geez, just because the "Rock Starr" brother in law has a little hissy fit. I always thought he was leaning to that side.
And then the truth came out:

It wasn’t him. I had 3 or 4 people that complained after your renter threw around “sl*t” and “wh*r*” so loosely. That’s what tripped off all the sensors. Would you have wanted that going to your other email account? Then when anyone else replied to all those words kept getting flagged because they were in the text from before. Everything else with you, Karl, and T.J. was fine…

Ha, I knew it, the Renter was at the bottom on this.
