Digital ESP. "You know who
Digital ESP.
"You know who you are..."
Does anybody else get rather confused by the above statement? It baffles me.
I mean, not in a psychological way, as I would like to believe that I knew who I was. I've lived with me for 22 years, and if I don't know who I am, well... then I guess nobody ever will:
Name: Jacqui Doyle
Species: Geekus Maximus
Planet: Third Moon of Pluto
However, when its written in a public forum, with comments that are only applicable to the said person, and that person "knows who they are", like theres some form of digital E.S.P involved. I've worked with computers along time, and I just don't get it.
"Glad to be back, I missed you all. Especially you, and you know who you are."
It makes me wonder how many people are gullible enough to believe that the message is actually directed at them. I guess its a good way of complimenting dozens of people in the world at once, with every single one of them feeling both unique and special... cuz "they know who they are".
Strangeness. So... As I'm feeling particularly fruity at the moment, I'm going to send out a dedicated message to one of my great friends:
You're an absolute champion. I love chatting with you! Don't stop smiling! Hope that things sort themselves out for you soon. *HUGZ* You know who you are!
*wink*
