My sister has emailed you.
My brother has emailed you.
His ex-boyfriend has emailed you.
Dad has emailed you.
And now Im emailing youAGAINbecause with just twelve hours left before the newest episode of the Great British Bake Off drops, things have taken a dire turn.
Ive just learned that someone has CHANGED the Netflix password in hopes of DESTROYING my Thursday night. This is absolutely unbelievable.
Weve tried typing our birthdays all in a row. Weve tried typing our birthdays all in a row, but with an exclamation point at the end. But now, we need you.
Please, this is a make-or-break moment. Will you rush the password before this weeks star baker is spoiled on Twitter?

When they bothered to ask me why, I would just unload on them about this tactic. Its dishonest and it is stupid. I even wrote to my Congresswoman about it on her constituent comment line I told her I had no way of knowing whose brilliant idea this tactic was, but that it was a gigantic turnoff.
Hekate! You are the ONLY PERSON in (your town) who has not donated to Politician/ Political Cause.!!!ll! We are DESPERATE! If Joe Biden loses it will BE YOUR FAULT!!!
