I think this is both funny and an excellent example of bad writing.

Relying on color to differentiate unpunctuated text is unwise, when most
businesses print documents on non-color printers.

Things to remember when interacting within a message-board community:

1) It's ALWAYS personal.
2) When people disagree with you - even slightly - it's because THEY HATE
YOU.
3) Always assume the worst possible interpretation of anything posted.
4) NEVER lighten up. This is the Internet, and it's SERIOUS, dammit.
5) Be willing to make the same point again and again. After all, somebody
might have missed it the first six times.
6) Don't dawdle. The sooner you skim through the first paragraph or two
of somebody else's post, the sooner you can attack it.
7) Never quote the post you're responding to. If people are paying
attention, they'll figure it out. Exception: when responding to one
sentence in a 20-paragraph post, include the entire post. You know, for
context.
8) Accurate, self-explanatory subject lines are for wimps.
9) It's not funny unless YOU think it's funny.
10) It's ALWAYS personal.
