f you've gotten your wisdom teeth taken out, you know that it's not uncommon to do and say some pretty crazy things afterward. Whatever drugs they give you before they send you home...well, it's some serious stuff.
Abby Jo Hamele, a 19-year-old student from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, experienced this when she got her wisdom teeth taken out shortly before Thanksgiving. After the surgery, she sent an absolutely cringe-worthy (and hilarious) email to her T.A., Kevin Patton, asking for an extension on a paper that was due. To put it lightly, the drugs had a slight effect on her writing.
The email reads:
Kevin-
I believe that i relmebmer you said we, as us students, would be able to send you our papers for classss for you to look at over before we turn them in to cColin if we got them to you by the 22nd of Novermber.
I unfortmately got my wisdom teeth sliced outr and have not not been reacting very well to the surgeryy nor the medicatioon i were given/ so I do not thimk that I will be able to habe my paper finisherd by Tuesday at all.
Is tehere any way I would be able to send you my paper at any later date??? I wnt to do very good on this paper you know becayse i like to do well in my classes.
please sir I workled very hard and thouught that I would be abel to finish it on timme but my doctor said I will most likelly not be normal again until at least Thanksginvg turkey. If you say no then that is okay but i would be sad and i would reallyyyy lik e it if you said yes. Thank you Kevin, my dude.
Abby Jo Hamele (pronounced hah-mil-lee) (if you were wondering)
P.S. I will answer youpr questions in class forever so theere are not any more awkard silence. and i will buy you expo markers that work (even thougjh our tuition should pay for markers that work)
love you bye
Abby later tweeted a picture of the email, after realizing what she had said.
I really can't decide what my favorite part is. "Thank you Kevin, my dude," is a strong contender. So is the simple-yet-beautiful "love you bye" at the very end. And let us not forget the ever-eloquent "I will most likelly not be normal again until at least Thanksgiving turkey." You and me both, girl.
Thankfully Kevin is, in fact, Abby's dude. He laughed about it just like the rest of us and was very understanding in his response to the email.
The moral of this story, if anything, is to ALWAYS videotape your friends after they get their wisdom teeth out. And encourage them to use social media and email.
love you bye
