Return of the illiterate twit

Dear Illiterate Twit™,

The best way to piss me off after I've emailed you politely telling you that A) the items have been promised to the first responders, and B) that on the off-chance that hell freezes over and everyone in front of you is a no-show, then I might consider letting you come get them, is to email me asking me how many people are on the list and then insisting that I meet you at the metro with the stuff, possibly making me make several trips.

Uh, no.

There was this bit about "pick-up only," remember? I repeated this twice. Clearly you're not completely illiterate, only selectively so.

So, I'm through being polite with you. You're not getting any of the stuff. Period.

No love,

Me

Some people just *totally* don't understand the spirit of Freecycle.

Very much so.

The charitable part of me wonders if the person's native language isn't something else (not French, since my original message was in both French and English, which I hope would signal to people that they can communicate with me in both official languages), which made them sound ruder than they are.

The uncharitable part of me just doesn't care. ;)
