… my work email signature …

This is my work email signature. I posted it to reddit today to much fanfare. Future internet historians may not understand the significance of this trite little bit of office humor, but I am currently bathing in my fifteen minutes.

Let it be said that I have nothing against iPhone users. In fact, I sport a 32gb iPod touch 4G. My problem is routed in the idea that the iOS (and other device manufacturers) assumes that you will be paying so little attention while using a mobile device, it has a built in excuse for your inept communication skills. Can we get this kind of notification on Java applications? Flash? Windows? Or is it already understood that software is buggy, typos are common and people just … well … make mistakes.

… and don’t even get me started on the whole “I didn’t know I could turn it off” thing.
