...why do you use 'Reply All' so much on emails? What are your thought processes?
Of all your crimes, this may actually be the greatest.
I'm currently receiving a relentless stream of unwanted emails saying "OK. Happy Holidays". There are 60+ people on this email chain. I may be the youngest. This will not make my holidays any happier.
Pronouns: He/Him/His.
"Imagine being a heterosexual white male in Britain at this moment. How bad is that. Everything you say is racist, everything you say is homophobic. The Woke community have really f****d this country."

OK. Happy Holidays
I've never laughed while being so painfully triggered before!

I will defend the boomers here. I did a course in the summer where three twenty-somethings relentlessly replied all to every email. A couple of us let them know, but they didn't seem to understand and we all ended up receiving some pretty personal emails about their ongoing health concerns. Once in a while, I still get an email from one of them querying something with the course instructor, simply replying all to the last email they sent the group.

Surely that's "Happy Christmas" ?

Christmas is banned. Didn't you get Trump's memo?
Anyhow, my colleagues will mainly be eating Chinese food and going to the cinema on Christmas Day seeing as they are largely all Jewish!

Anyone who has ever inadvertently done a "Reply All" at work with disastrous consequences learns that harsh lesson very quickly.......apparently
Just one small problem; sell their houses to who, Ben? Fcking Aquaman?

Some of us Boomers know how to use Inbox filters......
If I PM you my number can we discuss on Facebook how that works while we trade hilarious Minions memes?

It's not only older people tbf. I remember in my first year some girl somehow sent an email meant for her tutor to every undergraduate student at the uni. The email chain was in the thousands with people just posting memes and stuff until the University IT department were forced to delete it.

Sounds like this thread...
Oh Jeremy..... by Steve_M23 Mar 2018 19:39 It's been known about for a while, this chap even wrote a pertinent blog about it:
At the very best Corbyn is blind to anti-Semitism, that's not an ideal position for a prospective Prime Minister, but he is quite prepared to indulge it in people he thinks are on the 'right side'.

I will also send you the results of all the personal quizzes I've done on Facebook if that's ok?
Great. Email me those please. Email address is HornyFurryGrandad@aol.com.
Make sure you put [IMPORTANT] in the subject line so it stands out from all my emails from SAGA and Sun Life Insurance.

And then phone me afterwards to confirm that I received it.

As a boomer, I only use "Reply all" if it is necessary that all should see the message.
Things like Whatsapp have probably solved this problem, but when I was secretary of my local Labour Party, I tried to ensure that generally those on, say, the executive committee mailing list copied everyone in on a matter relating to the committee, so that everyone was aware what was going on. Otherwise, people could end up agreeing different things or arranging something that others were not aware of.
And of course blind copying also has its uses and benefits.

'Happy winter shutdown period' if you are a student in Brighton.
The university isn't expecting people to use the expression in that way, but using it that way is part of the right wing media's culture wars and a great way to wind up the anti-woke. But we are merely following the US approach, where Happy Holidays has been common for many years, not least because of the relatively large Jewish community.

Oi Mr Generalising Antlerhood - am undeniably a boomer, but only use 'Reply All' on bookclub or local community info emails, where my pearls of wisdom are always welcome (or deleted/reported as phishing for all I know).
You sure this "crime" isn't mostly an Amurrican thing?
