Punch Alliteration: Perturbation Over Pleiades Paperless Post

Posted by on October 2, 2010 at 4:54 pm

From a thread recently forwarded to Voice on September 30th, a little Female Final Club mix-up has caused some dire distress. The club sent out an invite to all its punchees — from LAST YEAR. Strangely enough, one of the recipients of this invite was a boy. Here is the explanatory email the Pleiades sent out as an apology:

Dear All,

Yesterday you received an e-mail from paperless post from Pleiades Punch. There was a glitch in the system and this e-mail was sent out by mistake. It sent an invite from last year’s first event at random. We would like to apologize for any confusion caused and reassure you that this problem should not happen again.

Best,
Pleiades Society

Actually, this one is $24.80.

To which a “disappointed and deceived” young “lady” responded:

“Gosh-DAMNIT! What kinds of BS is this?!

That little apology just won’t do it, missy.

Kindly send $24.57 to my room. I don’t have any dresses and so I had to go out and buy one for Wednesday’s event and they won’t take it back. Shlepping out to the Phoenix in my little black cocktail dress was humiliating, but shlepping back was painful. I felt like a cheap slut stood up for a date.

For the rest of you, as soon as I get my money back, and I are going to the store and I will be spending that $24.57 on a cold pack of beer and some hamburgers and we’re gonna have our own gosh-darn Pilates Punch Event. You are all invited – no high heels allowed.”

Yeahhhh.
