April 8, 2009 Urban Word of the Day
In the age of telecommuting, an e-mail message sent either early in the morning, or late at night, with the subtle intent of revealing the fact that the sender was logged on and working at the time the message was sent, hidden within the context of a more "official" looking message. (an example "notice me e-mail")
From: Molly Worker To: dev_group@mycompany.org Date: 03/27/05 23:17:04 EST Subject: Deliverable deadline Hi all... I just wanted to let you all know that I have received most of your status reports, but that the deliverable deadline is fixed. Therefore, if you will not be able to make the deadline, please adjust your status report schedule to fit the deadline. Thanks! -- Molly Worker |

How old people refer to e-mail. Similar to internets. young employee: Did you hear what happened at headquarters today?

| 3. | E-mail war | ||
|
An e-mail war occurs when two people are browsing the internet, or lurking in their inboxes.
An e-mail war doesn't have to be an angry exchange, it's simply an exchange of e-mails between two people really really quickly. Like instant messaging, only with e-mails one time made a change to my profile, and my aunt and had an e-mail war just talking about the change

E-mail. A new way of making a tit of yourself in the office. Caused by sending to all, rather than your boss, or sending to your boss rather than to all. This is usually followed by the ailment known as foot in mouth, which itself is followed by being metaphorically raped, grilled, or rinsed. Me: Hey, I found this hilarious picture of my boss on a porn site...let me see, I'll e-mail it to everyone and we can laugh at him...
*Pause* *E-mail from boss, asking to see him RE the picture he just recieved...* Oh shit! Alternatively... Me: This guy in my office is pissing me off. Jeez, just because I got found with his dog. I'm gonna e-mail the boss and ask for a transfer. *Pause* *Entire room erupts in laughter* Oh shit! |

| 7. | conjugal e-mail address | ||
|
An e-mail address shared by a couple (married or not) who likes to apply their "coupleness" to everything.
In many cases, the e-mail address was originally the guy's but when "couple status" was attained, the girl claimed co-ownership of the guy’s e-mail address. Sometimes this may be a case of the girl (or guy) being territorial. Sometimes this may even be a case of the girl (or guy) going loony as she (/he) thinks that she (/he) is the other person as evidenced by her (/his) eagerness in replying to all e-mails addressed to the original owner of the e-mail address. bjones@...... is our conjugal e-mail address.
