Thanks for getting in touch!

Got this email back from a company that sells custom t-shirts on the web called Neighbourhoodies after I sent in an email query. 

Dear Steve,

We at Neighborhoodies think Curiosity is an underrated virtue, so thank you for writing in. This email is merely to confirm that your question or comment has been successfully received.

It is a meaningless number and you do not need it. Nevertheless, please print out this number, memorize it, then shred the number into pieces and eat it. Chew first. If at that moment your phone rings, it’s us. Let the phone ring twice then speak the code in Swiss-German, or make guttural sounds to indicate you are choking on the shredded bits.

Thank you. 

Sincerely, Neighborhoodies 

It tells me so much about them, their values, that they’re human and they have a sense of humour. All the things that ‘real people’ have and corporate facades do not.

Cost – zero. Value – infinite.  

Kudos Neighbourhoodies.
