miz slithy,

you are frightfully lithe and fetching in a most venomous manner. your willingness to bare yourself online makes baby jesus cry, and i feel sure that your unwavering friendship and incessant sympathy would bear me hurtlingly doomward, you redheaded nyarlathotep. i thank my lucky stars that i’ve never known the horror of your acquaintance. a pox on your dainties! i love and miss, i mean, hate your stinking guts!

via e-mail.

if only all my hate-mail were worded so eloquently – it would be joy to read about how i’ve offended the online world with my neuroses and amateurish photos and lists of three. :) i’d better go check my dainties for any signs of pox, tho…that sounds bad. love you and miss you, too.
