E-crazy

[GirlinContempt]

People who feel the need to tack 'e' on everything internet related make me fucking insane.
No, you don't provide 'e'-solutions for 'e'-business, you provide business solutions, you pretentious ass.
I was grinding my teeth through that whole meeting.

10. its funny. remember when the word "direct" had to appear after everything?

[GirlinContempt]

12. Actually, not really...

What do you mean?

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. Direct-mail, Direct-pay, Direct-billing...etc.

:hi:

[GirlinContempt]

15. Ahhhh I getcha

[henslee]

32. At one point, the word "direct" was a hot internet term. So you'd see

pricewaterhousedirect.com, artistsdirect.com, sciencedirect.com... For a while the same was true for terms like "crawler" (for seach engines). There were others. "I" was used often, also.

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. "e-Fax your invoice to..."

I get this on appraisal orders daily. I don't e-anything with them. I put them in the fax machine, dial the number and Voila! Done. Agreed GiC

[GirlinContempt]

17. e-fax?!?!?!

That is just beyond ridiculous. I'm surprised you aren't gibbering in a corner if you get that every day.

[northzax]

33. hey, I use my laptop as a fax machine all the time

I don't have one, but through my VOIP connection, I can send and receive faxes on my iBook. Why not?

[GirlinContempt]

37. Yeah, but it still isn't an 'e-fax'.

It's a fax.

[LaraMN]

16. Why don't you tell them to, "E-at me!"

[EstimatedProphet]

35. You should tell them to e-fuck off.

[ucmike]

30. the opposite is e-nnoying also-"brick and mortar"

"we're a "brick-and-mortar" business, as opposed to e-business".

gimme a break. i worked for a construction company that had an internet business venture. they seperated the internet sales and construction ventures with this phrase. as if we were somehow doing construction projects on the internet. the funny part was that the internet group actually sold some bricks and mortar.

[petronius]

31. Were you at an e-meeting, or was it a non-cyber interfacing?

[GirlinContempt]

38. we were p-meeting

as in personally

[billyskank]

34. Good rant

:thumbsup:

At the start of the dot-com bonanza, I got really annoyed that all these companies were calling themselves "foobar-dot-com." I wanted to wrestle them to the ground and yell at them: "you're not called foobar-dot-com you fucking fashion victims that's your web address! You should just be called foobar!!!"

However, that's just me, and the world paid no attention. :)

[madinmaryland]

36. e-jokes.

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the President his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"
