LMFAO "With the wind". I'm definitely using that at the end of my Thank You and Farewell email.
why?
Because it's hilarious, why else?
Forever yours truly,
Love,

"With the wind" is hilarious, I'm going to use that to troll people.
The worst I've ever seen used in a serious way was "Cordially" -- I wanted to punch my screen.
"Best wishes and warmest regards"
from HR?
Cheers (unless you're Aussie or some other former British colony I'm forgetting that uses this colloquially. more often than not it's tech bros rather than expats, however)
Ciao (unless you're Italian, Spanish, or Portuguese)
Warmly (cringed just typing that)
Onward and Upward (why, just why)
recently I've started not using signoffs. I got the cue from my CEO who I noticed doesn't always use one in his companywide memos. I figure if it's good enough for him, good enough for me. exceptions are made when someone did something for me, I'll say thank you as my signoff.
onward and upward im done hahahah
bro...ridiculous. I couldn't believe this person operates a successful business
I’m half Aussie so can say cheers 🍻 😁
I hate when Americans think Cheers as in cheers to a drink.
I say cheers for that, they say and cheers to you too!
Its just cheers like ty, ta, thx
Sent from my iPhone
This is supposed to be a way to say that they sent the mail from their phone and hence there might be some typos etc..
This was the hottest signature in 2007. Oh you fancy huh -
Signing w your initials as if you’re a big deal.
"Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S9, an AT&T 5G Evolution capable smartphone"
Fuck you, you addressed none of my comments, I hate you and if you weren’t one of our biggest client’s children I would have fired you yesterday, MD
Get Outlook...
“Go fuck yourself San Diego”
Why did someone send this?
Teleprompter error
Worst Regards,
Kind retards,
“Thanks,”
in response to a MD telling you to do something.
“can you turn these comments overnight?”
”Sure can.
Thanks,
Alt Ctr Left”
Nor cringe, but just speaks volumes of the sender using Shortening closings such as:
Best rgds
Best
