Subject: impressed by your amazing vid
Date: Tue, 28 Dec 2004 17:28:08 +0000
You are an absolut twat. Your video was the greatest load of old
[censored]
[censored] i've ever seen. I think you should go and [censored] a skag head and get
aids
and die.
im baffeled and just had to share
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

wow...i didn't know people talked(wrote) like that...why would they bother? i think they are the twat!
not sure why, but i'm confused now and it seems like it may help?? do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and good to eat!
if at first you do succeed, try not to look too astonished!
smile! :grin: it confuses people!

Haha
I can't believe someone actually wrote that!!Well dude, I haven't seen the video in question, but then again, has he??
Take it as a compliment, in fact, maybe you should reply with something equally as nice...

No no no, that won't do. I must apologise, I may have been a bit rash in my earlier posting.
One should always turn the other cheek... Then when he thinks you're not looking... THWACK!!!!

Mate.
That blows. I hope that you're laughing about it, cos actually taking that sorta stuff to heart is really, really not advisable. Waste of energy, and besides (even though I promised Josh and Kate that I wouldn't further contribute to your erm.... 'self confidence') I think you're well talented and cute. Do you know who sent it to you?
I always thought skag was another name for heroin. eh? kids these days. Changing the lingo. Can't keep up anymore.
Edit: read it too quickly - didn't see the head bit after the skag bit. All makes sense now! So, basically the email is advising you to have unprotected intercourse with an intraveneous heroin addict who has HIV. nice.

Just be thankful they didn't ask if they could lick your arm pits! Ignore it hun. Jealousy is a strange master and makes people say the nastiest sh!t.
P.S. would it be ok if I just rubbed up against you (in a non sexual way, before all the pervy people suggest otherwise) in the hope some of your spinning talent wears off on me?

I'm curious why you didn't include the sender's email address...which you have a perfect right to do. What others do after that is their affair!
Note that he (IME women almost never do things like this) said you were an "absolut twat." He either can't spell 'absolute' or failed to capitalize 'Absolut' -- probably thinks you were drinking vodka heavily, eh? :-)

Ben,
Was this a close friend of yours?
Cos I think he was just taking the p!ss. He's seen how good you are, and like the rest of us is utterly jealous. He probably didn't expect you to post it on HoP though!!
I'd reply with: One day, if you practice enough, you too could be an absolut twat.

Ben,

thats what i thought it was at first but of all the ppl i know i dont think any of them wouldnt wish me aids and death even in jest, that and it was from an email account id never scene before and if it was from a close friend im sure they would have sent it from their account so i knew it was a joke be it a poor one at that

Flame Boy, the Subject line was just to get him to open it so he'd read the poison pen (poison electrons?) inside. Common among the childish homophobic a$$holes of the world.
Gri-Gri, I don't know what 'Wop' means in South Africa, but in America it's an offensive term for Italian-Americans...please clarify. I'm sure you didn't mean to slur a whole ethnic group by arbitrarily assigning this particular jackass to them, but I don't know what you did mean either.

I love that video so much...I'm watching for the third time! Mainly because the first time I couldn't believe my eyes
, the second time because I need to see it....and the third time just for the love!

Ben-ja-men I think I must warn you that if you come back to the Britain I WILL have to torture you! I have that Damn Umpa-Lumpa song stuck in my head! Grrrrrrrrr!!!
P.S. I like the bit (please note the very technical terms I don't use to explain this) where you flick it up and down from your ankle to wrist.....except the one where you hop about like a chicken on a biscuit tin containing a lit candle. I do think the left hand thats not doing anything needs something to occupy its time. It looks a bit bored hanging around.

dude abusive emails are as illigal as adusive letters, if you contact their email company about this especally if it is a big one ie yahoo, they will get incontact with their isp and possably take action, send a reply back saying that any further contact of this nature will be reported.
Mate you know your one of the best staffers ive ever seen.
