Answer:
The process of sending an email is an extrememly complex and precise art. First, the sender of the email must compose an articulate and sophisticated blend of 'lol', 'like' and various emoticons, eg: ';)' This is an extremely delicate process, particularly at the end of the message, where one 'x' too many can tip the tone of the email from casually flirty to overly obsessive and staker-like, whereas an 'x' too few gives the impression of a cold and withdrawn demeanor, which should be avoided.
After this literary masterpiece is completed (ths process takes between 3 and 6 months, depending on the InternetIntelligence or II of the sender) the 'send' button is pressed, and the REAL magic begins.
The email is relayed through an underground system of overworked square moles in minecarts, which have never been allowed to see the light of day. After the moles have crossed every object in their path, which may include pits of boiling lava, ravenous minotaurs and the horrifying caverns of Hell itself, they deliver the email to the reciever. This happens extremely quickly (one to three hours) because if the moles take too long they are whipped, and sometimes even culled by the thousands.
And what happens when the email is recieved? What becomes of this elegant mixture of 'lol's and 'x's and winky faces? The email is read by an inarticulate moron, who subsequently banishes this work of art to the recesses of the 'deleted' folder. All the toil of the poor abused moles and the hours upon hours of delicate adjustments executed by the writer are wasted by some idiot who barely bothers to read any of it, instead preffering to eat crisps all day in front of some mindless sitcom shown on the TV.
So please, think before you send an email. Be absolutely sure it's worth it. Think of the moles!
