[ I got this as somebody's list of reactions to the rejection note they
were sent on a submission. The rejection reaction was funnier than the
joke. This is parodied on the Roxanne list. ]
(Ok...)
Inflamed: What?!? You didn't think it was funny? Where did you get your sense
of humor, an Acme correspondence course? What do I have to do to get
something funny posted around here? Blow half of the backbone SAs
for my OWN newsgroup, like you?
Bribery: Ok, how about five bucks?
Polite: I wasn't sure if you wanted to handle it, but I wanted to make sure you
had the opportunity.
Defensive: Hey, *I* didn't write it.
Sly: Just testing. You pass.
[Remaining 19 not included because I'm not as funny as Cyrano/Martin.]
No? I know, I know, "Keep trying.".
