"It's feels impossible to parody that one without it being obvious."

"No it doesn't, everything is easy to parody!!!"

Not connected to the above:

That's ... a couple of remarkably reasonable posts, in pretty close sequence. Are you feeling OK? Should we start checking the closets for pods?

I will not use the commune spell to find out who is John Galt.

 

[Autumnal]

it wouldn’t work anyway, because Galt is so opposed to communalism.

If only that actually worked on clients.

Client - Asks three questions.
Me - Answers three questions.
Client - Asks second and third question again, as if I didn't already replay to them.
Me "As per my previous email..." and proceed to answer last two questions again.
Client - Asks third question AGAIN.
Me -

My favorite was:

Coworker: Asks for data.
Me: Provides data, and preemptively answer the question I know they are going to ask.
Coworker: Asks the question I knew they were going to ask.
Me: "As per my previous email..." and copy the answer from my first email.
Coworker: HOW DARE YOU SUGGEST THAT I DIDN'T READ YOUR EMAIL!

Speaking of words and language and whatnot. Is there a word for being able to guess who the other poster is in a conversation with another poster, even if you cannot see that poster's posts due to blocking? It's both a kinda warm fuzzy feeling and a disappointment at the same time.

I think we need to coin a neologism for this. How about "postcognize"? Hmm...nah. I would read that as "thinking after the fact."

Or "intuitveil"?

Blah.

I've got nothing.
