Spider payment e-mail

[Ian]

Yes, this an old e-mail that has done the rounds a few times - but I'm posting it here for anyone that hasn't seen it yet. I saw it again today and it still made me laugh after reading the e-mail exchange for a 3rd time :lol:

Dear Jane,
I do not have any money so am sending you this drawing I did of a spider instead.
I value the drawing at $233.95 so trust that this settles the matter.

Regards, David.

Subject: Whose spider is that?

Dear Jane,
Are you sure this drawing of a spider is the one I sent you? This spider only has seven legs and I do not feel I would have made such an elementary mistake when I drew it.

Regards, David.

Dear David,
Yes it is the same drawing. I copied and pasted it from the email you sent me on the 8th.
David your account is still overdue by the amount of $233.95.
Please make this payment as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely, Jane Gilles

Hello, I am back and have read through your emails and accept that despite missing a leg, that drawing of a spider may indeed be the one I sent you. I realise with hindsight that it is possible you rejected the drawing of a spider due to this obvious limb ommission but did not point it out in an effort to avoid hurting my feelings. As such, I am sending you a revised drawing with the correct number of legs as full payment for any amount outstanding. I trust this will bring the matter to a conclusion.

Regards, David.

I understand and will definitely make a payment this week if I remember. As you have not accepted my second drawing as payment, please return the drawing to me as soon as possible. It was silly of me to assume I could provide you with something of completely no value whatsoever, waste your time and then attach such a large amount to it.

Regards, David.

LOL thanks so much for sharing that!

 

[thedrunk]

Nice, Wonder if you did that but made something that would hold a value in court if you could get away with it?

I don't think so, but it would be funny trying it :lol:

I wonder if the judge would agree - might just depend onthe day they are having

This joker has been at it again with some e-mails to his landlord. It's not as funny as the spider e-mails but it is worth reading!

I dunno, I thought the Gym Membership was even funnier than the Spider Email. I was perticularly surprised when the Employee told him to F-Off! Even when a customer is being difficult or whatever, you should never swear at them...

I liked the pet one, haha,

The ducks in the bathroom are not mine. The noise which my neighbours possibly mistook for a dog in the apartment is just the looping tape I have of dogs barking which I play at high volume while I am at work to deter potential burglars from breaking in and stealing my tupperware. I need it to keep food fresh.
