I find np a worse message when taken literally. If I even have to write an email, it's at least a little problem. yw allows for a problem you solved for somebody without suggesting that it doesn't come at the expense of other priorities. Both will be interpreted the same way by almost everyone, of course.

You're welcome to ask things like that of me. This is within the realm of stuff I will gladly do for you.

"Locally made" makes it sounds like they're bringing them home from the farmer's market in a canvas bag.

If I had a nickel for every time my boss fired somebody so humiliatingly that they forgot to take their jackets with them on the way out the door, I'd have two nickels.

I didn't observe this myself -- she e-mailed everyone she didn't fire asking if any of us wanted a jacket and went on to describe the ones her victims were wearing just last week.

Oh wow, I got an Eve V years ago because it could do that and thought it was a budget Surface, so I always figured the Surface could do that, too. Now Eve's out of the game and I'm looking to replace mine. Does anyone do that anymore?

Does the keyboard work while detached? When I travel, I like to plug the laptop into the TV and control it from across the room with a wireless keyboard and mouse. It would be nice not to have to pack a separate keyboard.

There were basically 3 channels for a while -- ABC, NBC, CBS. But yeah, their brand has really diminished.
