email ping-pong

"Email ping-pong" is the act of email correspondence between two people getting out of hand or control.

It usually starts of with a comment, opinion or observation that becomes misunderstood or misinterpreted by the recipient. The recipient then responds with comment, opinion or observation...and so on. It is not uncommon for participants to ping-pong 10, 20 times or more before they realise they haven't got a clue what started it all in the first place!
The act of email ping-pong might start quite innocently!

Ping - Dear ^+*%$#,I noticed blah, blah, blah...
Pong - Dear *£*'@}$, As you should be aware... (how dare you tell me what I should do)
Ping - Dear ^+*%$#, I am perfectly aware... (Get your head out of your arse)

Email terrorist

Somebody who bombards your email inbox with (mostly) unnecessary messages. They are most common at work, since you are unlikely to remain friends with such a person in a social capacity. The volume of emails is such that it detracts focus from the key tasks you are looking to undertake whilst on your PC.
