I'm not sure what to think about this since I don't carry any kind of highly sophisticated piece of hardware. Perhaps it's the default setting for these phones. Still, I can see a few good reasons for clarifying where the message was sent from and I can think of a few bad ones.
Nonetheless, my first impression of you might be "you're a braggart". My second impression of you might be "why isn't he/she at work?". My third impression is "that still doesn't excuse spelling or grammatical errors."
Of course, if you are reading this, I would never think any of those things about you.

Eh, it's the default "signature line" on many smartphones. I delete it myself. Or change it to something weird, like "Sent from my toaster, please excuse any burnt letters in this message."
ReplyDeletei think what these comments don't say, but imply is:
ReplyDelete'sent from my gizmo, please excuse crappy spelling, lack of a proper address, and other email etiquette snafus'

ReplyDeleteI admit it. I'm guilty. And I like that it says it came from my iPhone.
@Jen: I knew it! :)
ReplyDeleteI am so with you, I hate that "sent from I phone, in my new BMW, in the midst of my slurps on my venti frappucino, right before my nail appointment"...great post.
