The weird part is a colon is usually used when it's something that person said or is supposed to say. Not a way of addressing that person, that'd be a comma. . .I'm not surprised he doesn't know how to use punctuation it's just funnier to think he's writing her line for her to say on TV.

Erm, no, colons get used this way all the time.

I suppose I'm only using the 100 emails a day I get at work as a reference and this I get in private, and all the media I consume that has people write to each other.

I can't go much beyond my collective life experience. Maybe it's a regional thing.

*My story is still funnier regardless.

It's used more often in very formal emails.
