This is email #2, at this rate I’ll crank out a solid half-dozen by the year 2024.
I mean, I have zero subscribers. But hey, it’s cool if no one subscribes, it’s no prob. One day this is going to blow up and everyone will regret not getting in early.
I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT QUORA
I should clarify that I don’t know what Quora actually IS, beyond a weird site where people ask questions. Sort of like this gem? Maybe?
(Side note: Who cares how a toilet works? Gross)
I’ve never visited Quora.com - at least not on purpose. If I have a question I ask myself (over and over, in an obsessive fashion, in my mind), or GOOGLE, or my dad.
That’s why it’s super weird that I get so many emails from them. At first I dismissed them. I flagged/deleted/considered “reporting” but reporting an email as spam seems like such a Karen thing to do, IDK.
Of course, sometimes I read my junk folder, as we all should do. Just in case I’m missing out on a financial opportunity or something. Soon I realized that it was wrong of me to write off Quora emails as junk.
First, Quora.com (who are you? what are you?) takes the time to make me something. DO YOU KNOW HOW SPECIAL THAT IS? It’s a digest, called Raena’s Digest. Come on, that’s cute! I’m talking about curated content.
I decided to mark Raena’s Digest NOT SPAM! to ensure I will keep receiving it. Look, these emails are gold. You don’t even have to read the answers (I never have, and I’m proud of that fact). The questions, which I assume are hand-picked for each digest, work together synergistically to create epic poems about nothing.
Quora is high comedy for all the currently sober but formerly raging drug addicts of the new age. (I mean, that’s what I hear.) Also, need a writing prompt? LOOK NO FURTHER.
Raena’s Digest: TOP STORIES FOR YOU
Why don't Harvard grads like telling people that they went to Harvard?
Which university do you prefer, Stanford, Harvard, UPenn, MIT, Princeton, or Yale?
Has there ever been a person living in your house without your knowledge?
Also, in case anyone wants to know, here are my short answers to the above:
That’s not true, WTF
So much going on here. I feel sad for you, but I can also relate, and I’m also thinking of the movie What About Bob
Seriously?
Oh yeah. More than once!
I challenge any of my zero subscribers: if you’re bored, or - even better - so busy you simply cannot do “real” work, borrow a writing prompt from Raena’s Digest and make some magic. I have about 825 more if you need them, HMU. The possibilities are endless. I’d recommend getting your own if I knew how to go about it. Mine was a mistake, sort of like when a Bichon Frise named Misty jumped into my car at a Pizza Hut in 2009. #blessed
I love these so much. LOLed so many times reading this.
