'scuse me - could you please close your "strike" tag you've left open?

This was written in the LJ WYSIWYG editor - no idea how that happened... Oopsy!

Would you mind giving your HTML a look? Every entry on my friends list after this one has a strike mark through it.

Thanks!

Oh, by the way, reynardo and I must have left the same sort of comment about the same time. Didn't mean to point out the already obvious there.

Maybe it's just me, but I see a sexual harassment seminar just WAITING to happen.

Given the number of typos, it could be "glare" and not "clare". It makes more sense that way :)

Yeah, but that would make sense. :)

I've seen a number of tickets here that I'll look at, sigh, can call the offending party up and tell them "Hi, this is jecook from IT - You opened a ticket with us?" and make then sit on the phone with me whilst I re-write their damn ticket to be what they actually are trying to do.

There was a time, working for a government helpdesk, where my response would have been to forward the email to the user's manager, saying "We are unable to determine the nature of the request. Please check with your minion and let us know what they're trying to say."
