All Narfed Up photography and words by Bryan Villarin

This could be a stretch, but the following sentence (or any variance of it) bugs me:

“Would you be kind enough to…yadda yadda yadda?”

This applies to anyone. I’d like to think I’m a nice guy, and that I love helping people whenever I can. Don’t decorate the question — be upfront and ask me! Elaborating the question is wasting the valuable seconds I could’ve already been helping you. If they ask why, then you can butter ‘em up!
