The Admissions Office at my beloved alma mater, UNC, made the mistake of sending an email congratulating 2,700 applicants on their admission. The only problem is that they haven’t been admitted- yet.
The email was intended to request mid-year grades; however, there was some confusion and the wrong email was sent. They’ve now sent emails acknowledging their mistake.
Dang, it must suck to have been on that emotional rollercoaster.

that would really suck — I understand errors but I’d be upset.

It must REALLY suck right now for whoever sent out that email.
Wouldn’t it suck if God told you you got in heaven, but was like, my bad, I meant SHARON Davis, not Erin Davis?! Dang it.

Man, I’d be TOO upset if i got to heaven and that happened.
I’d be even more upset if they said “Erin Nicole Davis”? Oh, we really mean “Erin Elizabeth Davis”. Or even worse, “Erin NICHOLE Davis”.
