- Retric 17y agoIt's not the message that's annoying, but the format: FYI: You flipped it, "A purveyor of goods or services is a person or company that provides them" not the other way around. That communicates the same thing and takes up less space, and is easier to understand. And by starting with FYI: most people can simply skip it.
