Editing Talk:2093: Reminders

<!--Please sign your posts with ~~~~ and don't delete this text. New comments should be added at the bottom.-->

I added an explanation in which I extended Cueball's reaction from the reminders to Randall himself - I believe this is commonly done for many comics, but please feel free to modify it. [[User:Ianrbibtitlht|Ianrbibtitlht]] ([[User talk:Ianrbibtitlht|talk]]) 17:25, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

I liked the rewrite of my original explanation but made a few additional changes. I re-added the intro about Cueball using an email client program, and I slightly modified the title text explanation - I don't think it's suggesting you'll end up friendless and alone, just with a level of friends that you can keep up with or who are willing to accept your lack of attention to the details of their lives.

:Yeah, sorry, I kind of stomped all over your original write-up :) I felt it read a bit too much like the transcript and needed more explanation than description. I agree with your updates. [[User:Hawthorn|Hawthorn]] ([[User talk:Hawthorn|talk]]) 16:54, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

Is there a real email client capable of all three of these types of reminders? [[Special:Contributions/141.101.107.96|141.101.107.96]] 23:02, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
:Probably not the first one, but if not, there probably will be now! ;-) [[User:Ianrbibtitlht|Ianrbibtitlht]] ([[User talk:Ianrbibtitlht|talk]]) 04:51, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
::Gmail definitely can remind you to answer an email (I don't know what exactly triggers this, I have a lot of unanswered emails I do not get reminders about, but I definitely got such reminders in a few cases), and it also warns you about missing attachments. I don't know about birthday reminders, as I didn't tell Google about the birthdays of my contacts. --[[Special:Contributions/162.158.93.27|162.158.93.27]] 09:57, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

Hah! Funnily at first I mistakenly read “conscientiousness” as “consciousness”; then on second thoughts... :o
