Actual email from some guy named Joe Simpson:
Nate I just wanted to inform you that your dedication to alcohol is inspiring.
It also affords me opportunities to justify myself when my girlfriend complains about me doing homework while drinking whiskey out of the bottle and proceeds to express her disappointment that I'm inebriated before 7pm.
“Honey Nate is an alcoholic and look how successful he is.”
“Who?”
Oh yeah and your writing isn't terrible either.
Now that's fucking funny.
Think you're funnier than Joe? Send me an email to that effect at nathan@pointsincase.com and I won't have to write as much. Awesome, huh?
