Eldritch e-mails

[cosmolinguist]

Getting e-mails from my mom that look like they're from a horror story rather than her describing her inability to Skype me.

First: "We will begone tomorrow so are you able to skype"

Then: "It won’t let me in."

Another: "It will not let me in. I have tried everything"

Half an hour later she forwards me that second one.

She sent all of these about 10pm, so I was already in bed, so I saw them all at once in the morning, adding to the "I found this bundle of mysterious messages..." vibe of the story I imagine it would be. I think it's called "We Will Begone."

That does sound creepy

I just read a post whose title included the phrase "up to your keister in heavily armed Objectivist Space Bats," so this is starting to look like a theme.

Oh, that does have a strong vibe of mounting horror!
