Text of the page (random words):
e sinking of the titanic found after three days floating on a deck chair and clutching a blue diamond pendant and the time eric s holiday letter became the first message transmitted across the transatlantic telegraph cable first electricity and now the telegraph sometimes i feel as though i were living in an h g wells novel in fact there has been so much drama over the years noël coward s new play cavalcade was inspired by eric s holiday letter and who could forget the scandals that rocked eric s holiday letter i m referring of course to the time sybil wore trousers to dinner the time mary got her hair bobbed and the time matthew and i had to wear tuxedos because my valet had ruined our formal attire oh did you think i was going to mention the turkish diplomat i never got the details about that and i wish people would stop bringing it up anyway we got through these events and kept on going we thought we could solve any problem by bringing carson out of retirement however the last straw was when we were forced to sell the london edition of eric s holiday letter mary said it was the only way we could make necessary changes she says holiday letters like ours must keep moving in order to survive and she s convinced indoor plumbing is the wave of the future i ve decided to stop fighting it as long as we don t have to sell the della francesca oh wait we already did that well as the dowager countess always used to say a peer in favour of reform is like a turkey in favour of christmas and i think she had a point i m not a reformer and therefore it is time for me to go but don t worry eric s holiday letter will live on when i say this is the end and that i m saying goodbye i just mean that i m moving into the dower house a sweet little forty room cottage without even a ballroom said to have been designed by christopher wren i ll be economizing of course with my valet serving double duty as my butler but i think i ll be happy here wishing you a happy holiday season and best wishes for 1931 robert crawley 7th earl of grantham posted by eric3000 at 11 59 am no comments tuesday december 24 2024 recent photo of an iphone barbie s holiday letter december 2024 dearest darlingest friendsies momsies and popsicles this is your best friend barbie writing to you again this year i know i know i thought 2023 was my year and that everyone would have forgotten about me by now but recently i ve been looking around and i realized the world is suddenly being drenched in pink is it just me or is everything just so pink the stores are filled with pink merchandise and it seems like every other television commercial is a cross promotion for me did you see the cell phone commercial with the iphone dressed like me in pink and my signature tiara it s like the entire holiday season is one big celebration of well me i must say i m feeling quite seen right now this is the manifestorium of everything i love and it s all barbie pink all the time yay oh and i ve also noticed a lot of green it s everywhere pink and green and at first i found it confusifying i was like is it ken did ken wear something green without notifying me first but you know what i like it i find it encouragerizing and i m realizing there is a definish chance that not everything has to be pink sure my car and my house and my furniture and my clothes have to be pink obviously and also my diving board and my dishes and my mailbox and my sunglasses and my fire extinguisher and my television and my blender and my toilet plunger and my xanax and my toothbrush and my power tools and my luggage and my stanley cup and my yacht and my kitchen appliances and my band aids and my volleyball and my jet ski all have to be pink but other than that i think it would be okay if some things were green anyway this year i m writing the letter myself instead of letting that ai chatbot write it like i did last year the chatbot promised to grant my heart s desire but when i asked for help this year the results were not what i wanted it wasn t funny at all and if there is one thing barbie is known for it s humor i had to completely rewrite it i told myself barbie you have heart courage and brains you can do this congratulotions to me for my braverism so i got out my trusty sparkle pen and started writing i m just kidding i didn t use a sparkle pen i used a 1926 underwood standard portable typewriter just like anyone else i knew i couldn t send this letter out the way it was now that we re friends i ve decided to make this letter my new project i know i don t have to do it that s what makes me so nice whenever i see something less humorous than i and let s face it right what isn t less humorous than i my tender heart tends to start to bleed when a letter needs a makeover i simply have to take over i know i know exactly what it needs and even in this case though it s the toughest case i ve yet to face don t worry i m determined to succeed follow my lead and yes indeed it will be jocular i ll try to be joc u lar i ll teach you the newest craze with a turn of phrase ways to misdirect and punch ooh absurdity and irony everything that really counts to be jocular oh it will be joc u lar and with anecdotes we ll be showboats all the puns you ve got to know so let s start cause there s an awfully long way to go don t be offended by my frank analysis think of it as epistolary dialysis now that i ve decided on a comic thesis with deadpan timing and silly rhyming we ll get to jocular i know about joc u lar and if i don t assist it will be a miss instead of what i wish it was er were there s nothing that can stop this from becoming joc u lar uh ler maybe you have heard a rumor about observational humor just think about the phrase have you ev er no ticed celebrated standup comics or the wittiest of orators were they experts in benign violations theory well yes probably but also they were jocular right it s all about joc u lar it s not just slapstick or a limerick it takes pacing and delivery to be very very jocular like me and though you protest we will do our best even if it s forcibly we re gonna grin and bear it this newfound jocularity woo laaa laaa laaa laaa it will be jocular just not quite as jocular as barbieeeee with all my love graditution and best wishes for the new year barbie posted by eric3000 at 2 58 pm no

letter takes over a year to produce the release date for the 2023 holiday letter has been pushed back to summer 2024 while we wait for that i ve asked the a i chatbot chatgpt to write a holiday letter for me i prompted it to write a holiday letter about the process of writing a holiday letter to write it in the style of the barbie movie and to make sure to mention buying stamps because i know everyone looks forward to reading about buying stamps every year the bad news is the results are actually kind of cute which is terrifying the good news is it is clearly not the real thing and i think we will continue to need real human writers for the foreseeable future after the foreseeable future of course the robots are definitely going to take over and make humans unnecessary but that s a problem for another day so without further ado except for a shout out to allan whom barbie forgets to mention in her list of friends here is eric s holiday letter as written by artificial intelligence from the point of view of barbie exactly as generated by chatgpt with no edits really dear friends and family oh hi there it s your favorite doll barbie i hope this letter finds you wrapped in joy and

s holiday letter december 2022 dear friends family and advertisers as i m sure you have heard eric s holiday letter llc was recently purchased by elon musk for 44 billion dollars i know it seems like a lot of money i asked if he was sure he didn t mean 44 million but no the offer was 44 billion with the rising cost of crudités i kind of had to say yes i can see the appeal this letter goes out to dozens of people every year but it s not as profitable as you might think elon must have realized this because the deal almost fell through at one point he made the claim that i was vastly overreporting the number of recipients who actually read my letter and underreporting the number who find it too long and silly but i proudly stand by my reported metrics over ten percent of recipients read my letters and almost five percent enjoy them any claim otherwise is baseless i had to go to court but elon eventually followed through with the purchase under the original terms the day elon took over the first thing he did was fire me the second thing he did was rehire me because he realized i was the only employee and i had the mailing list and the stamps he then sent out the following email to all the employees again it s just me going forward to build a breakthrough eric s holiday letter 2 0 and succeed in an increasingly competitive world of holiday letters we will need

the form of lists which is a lazy way to fill space in closing i am sharing the following letter slightly edited from elon musk to the advertisers dear eric s holiday letter advertisers i wanted to reach out personally to share my motivation in acquiring eric s holiday letter there has been much speculation about why i bought eric s holiday letter and what i think about advertising most of it has been wrong the reason i acquired eric s holiday letter is because it is important to the future of civilization to have a common written town square where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in
