True stories of the Internets!
The first email ever sent (in 1972) between two computers in two American universities was 'qwertyuiop' (from the top line of a typewriter keyboard).
The thread that followed, were all a very involved argument about what the sender meant by that, that the choice of letters was poor, an implication that the sender lived in their parents' basement, and an insistence that each was 'right' about qwertyuiop.
The less-known tenth email ever sent was 'stfu', and the two senders took each other off their mainframe user lists.
They still haven't spoken since.
