Email archaeology

Reviewing and answering fossil emails, senders of which have long lost any hope of getting a response. Usually done when bored to the extent of taking time to clean the inbox.
- Thank you.
- What's up bro? You answered an email from 3 years ago. Are you into email archaeology?
- Yeah, I got inspired by Jordan Peterson to make order in my bedroom, and went on to desktop icons and now the inbox.

- Put your mind in order first.

Email Muscles

false bravado
When someone becomes "tough" and "combative" in an email, but never in person, or on the phone. A false show of digital power and might. A manifestation of their own sense of righteous indignation.
Email Muscles
Ninja 1 in an email format: "I asked you for that report last week you never responded, I'm losing confidence in you and your firm & will take my business else where."

Ninja 1 in a phone conversation: "Hey buddy, I know you have been busy, any chance of getting that report any time this week? No rush!"

As per my previous email

This phrase is usually used in the context of business related things, where some manager or employee above you demands for information or input when clearly you've given them it in your last email. Obviously that person has not read your emails nor did they bother to read them. They probably only sent the email because it was their job to do so.
Me: *Gives them the required documents via email*
Them: "Hello. Please submit all documents today. Thank You.*
Me: AS PER MY PREVIOUS EMAIL........

Email chain of death

The resulting email chain from a group email, caused when a question is sent to multiple people, and everyone chirps in with varying replies, possibly including adding additional recipients who might have some interest in the matter (or more than likely not).

Good indicators are when multiple people send emails basically saying the same thing, or when new random people start chirping in to a discussion that's already been agreed.

Koyfie: Don't forget to send tissues along with that.
