There is a discussion going on between real estate people in America somewhere and they keep sending me copies of their emails. I do not know them. It seems to be over a lake.
eg"...former attorney recommended we get rid of the association owned boats because of liability concerns..."

I suggested "I reckon you could chuck a few dead bodies into the lake and when they float to the edge and get discovered by a passing nun and/or a girl scout, nobody will want to go near the lake again meaning you could buy it at an extra cheap rate." Nobody responded.

Things have got a bit shirty between Mitch and Denise, the people exchanging emails and copying me in.
[Mitch to Denise]: "With all due respect , I don't need any advice from you as to who I need to listen to."

AIBU in sending an email to both of them saying that I'm sensing some pent up sexual tension between the both of them, and maybe they should get together and make out to get it out their system?

I was copied into an email chain by mistake which was about some animal experimentation. It included the memorable phrase "the marmosets are having fisticuffs over the marshmallows".

Fry,if they're from the Deep South of Merka, being related ain't necessarily a dealbreaker.

I hope they reply! I was once copied in on a series of emails to a family planning their ski holiday. I had the same name as the daughter. I didn't want to screw with them because they sounded so nice. ("We'll meet at the chalet at 6pm - we'll have the fire roaring and Mom is making eggnogg!" kind of thing).

I sent them an email and they were really nice and told me to look them up if I was ever in Concord, New Hampshire.

My dh gets loads of emails meant for other people (mostly Americans for some reason). He gets school reports (from a do not reply, unmonitored email address so we can't stop them) some poor blokes sales appointments/leads (and his 'sorry, we have to let you go' email Shock), stuff from someone convinced he's a lady who goes on a lot of skiing holidays, stuff for a preteen girl in Denver, etc.

Maybe he's living some amazing number of double lives?

I never get anyone else's emails, I am a bit jealous. My emails are really boring!

Oh dear god "the marmosets are having fisticuffs over the marshmallows".

I just wet myself a little bit.
