Yes. Though I fail to see how a brand new Ferrari is stupid.

You seriously have an email account called BrownEyedGrrrl?

Me

Ferrari Fanatic,

I do. I use it for online dating, posting one-star reviews of terrible products, and conversing with titans of industry when they choose to conduct themselves in an unprofessional manner by asking personal questions.

Even a brand new Ferrari can’t save some people from coming across like a douche turd. That was all I was getting at. Next time I’ll be more clear. “Stupid” was juvenile of me.

Sometimes I forget how I should conduct myself while addressing titans.

Call Me Juvenile

Juvenile,

Perhaps you have some leftover feelings from the time we spent together in high school. That seems the only explanation for your conduct today.

Your First Crush?

Non-Existent Crush,

We did not spend time together in high school, and there was a reason.

My conduct today can be explained by the fact that you’ve already fired one member of my agency and promoted another to be my supervisor. I haven’t had lunch yet or even had a moment to think about what I’ll eat, and chatting with you is hardly enjoyable or good for the appetite.

I have zero leftover feelings. I do wish I had leftovers, though.

Low Blood Sugar

Low,

You will find lunch arriving for the entire office shortly.

I hope you like Indian food.

Marginally Concerned Benefactor

Daddy Warbucks,

I hate Indian. But thank you. The other orphans and I will be so relieved to eat today.

Orphan Annie

Annie,

How does an Indian girl hate Indian food?

Warbucks

Offensive,

I am not even going to get started on how you just called me an “Indian girl,” yet you know zero about my heritage or my family.

Is this the kind of assumption that accidentally launched your recent career as a porn star?
