A little humour can go a long way in making your emails more engaging and memorable.


Let’s face it, “I hope this email finds you well” is the email equivalent of beige wallpaper: bland, uninspiring, and frankly, a bit of a snoozefest.

But fear not, weary email warriors! There are far more entertaining ways to greet your inbox brethren.

So, ditch the dull and embrace the hilarious with these seven alternatives that are sure to grab attention (and maybe a chuckle).

Let’s be honest, most of us are just a few emails away from a full-blown meltdown. Embrace the shared struggle and open with a relatable dose of dark humour.

Bonus points if you can tie it back to the topic of your email in a creative way.

This is a playful way to acknowledge the absurdity of the world while referencing something everyone (hopefully) knows about. Just make sure the event isn’t too tragic or controversial. You don’t want to start things off on a bummer note.

This one paints a vivid picture, doesn’t it? Perfect for when you’re feeling the pre-holiday crunch and want to connect on a relatable level.

Bonus points if you add a picture of yourself sporting serious dark circles and a caffeine-fueled grin.

This one’s for the drama queens (and kings) of the email world. It’s a playful way to acknowledge potential typos or delays while adding a touch of intrigue. Just make sure your actual message isn’t too important, because all anyone will be able to think about is the inbox inferno.

Channel your inner Rick Sanchez and break the fourth wall with a playful jab at the absurdity of modern communication. Just be sure you’re on good terms with the recipient – this one might not fly with the boss.

This one’s for the self-proclaimed email royalty. It’s a playful way to build anticipation while hinting at your own awesomeness. Just make sure you deliver on the cat meme promise, or prepare for inbox revolt.

This one’s for the risk-takers and the masters of suspense. It’s a cheeky way to pique curiosity and leave the recipient guessing about the content of your email.

Just be sure to follow through with something actually interesting, or you might just end up being the office banana peel.

Remember, a little humour can go a long way in making your emails more engaging and memorable. Just be sure to choose the tone that fits your audience and your brand, and you’ll be well on your way to email stardom (or at least a few chuckles).*
