Quite possibly one of the best emails I ever received.

By The Eva Monkey on Wednesday, October 13th, 2010

It seems like I never get any email anymore. Maybe that’s due to Eva Geeks, and its rockin forums and wiki, but I never get any emails. Which is a shame, because from time to time, I would get a good one. I was rooting through my email just now, and I dug up this little gem, that struck me as particularly amusing in retrospect. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did.

Dearest Mr. Clark,

One of my confidants informed me of your site, stating that it could help me in my lectures about Neon Genesis Evangelion. Unfortunately, I find your site devoid of any factual information. In fact, your site is the definition of unintelligible and amateur rantings.

I write only to inform you of your utter lack of content, and your poor (very poor) attempt at web design. I am a professor at the University of Sussex, and I have been hoping to use this cartoon from the orient as a teaching aid for my criminal psychology students.

My students are focusing currently on murders among young teens. I was hoping for some definitive theories and logic, but instead you give me your petty (and self centered) “views” (if one could call them views at all. I would call them “petty, self inclusive nit picking”) and your clearly passive-aggressive obsession with Hideaki Anno. Excuse me for being psycho analytical, but you clearly have an egocentricity that stems from childhood trauma, like falling into a lake or being beaten by your uncle.

I’d like to note also that you are an extremely grating individual. Your constant, chicken-esque clucking about the tiniest mistakes leads me to believe you have run dry even of what little imaginative drive you had to begin with, innate from the womb.

You are still young, and somewhat intelligent, if this vapid Japanese show has not drained your brain. I believe if you shut down this utter monstrosity of a site and try to write something a bit more… useful, say something about the EastEnders (a fine show, to be sure), then you might find some degree of success. But with your priorities so far from the mark, I’m not sure the prodigal son will return home to father in this case.
