我已经厌倦了这

3 February 2008

Dear Gmail,

I cannot read Chinese. I have never been able to read Chinese. I probably will never be able to read Chinese.

Every single mail I have ever received in Chinese I have marked as spam. All of them.

Why can’t you understand I don’t read Chinese? I would like you to automatically bin any message that is more than, say, 40% Chinese. Is that so hard?

Also Russian, Greek, and Turkish.

Kthxbye,
Joe
