bungee e-mail

A type of electronic message that when sent results in the sender immediately jumping out of their chair and following the e-mail to the recipient to discuss it in person...as if the sender were attached to the e-mail by a bungee cord.

Chronic bungee e-mailers tend to arrive before the recipient has even read the e-mail in question and have a tendency to state everything in the e-mail at the start of the conversation making the original e-mail redundant. This activity typically occurs in office environments, but the behavior may exist in other habitats.

She was so prone to sending bungee e-mails that at times she arrived before her e-mail did, making me wonder how she was able to outpace a network that in theory moved at the speed of light.

Confirmation E-mail

noun - Describes any annoying e-mail that includes a "confirmation link" which most online companies or organizations will send to you if you wish to subscribe for their membership services. It will usually cause a new internet browser window to open after clicking the link included in the e-mail. In extreme (but humorous) cases, this could cause slow system response if the computer has too many applications running, or if the person has searched for excessive amounts of porn with their computer.

Person: Yay I subscribed for ultimate porn

Oh I have a confirmation e-mail. How annoying.

*clicks link*

OH NOES! IT OPENED A NEW WINDOW! D:

*Computer crashes* (Due to excess porn or outdated hardware)

T_T I hate it when a new window opens unexpectedly
