TBH I think if your email is filled with garbage you need to do a better job of managing your email.

If they think email is bad now, then obviously a lot of people dont remember the 90s before spam filtering got decent.

He never did get around to sending me that Windows 98 license. Ended up having to use a keygen.

I was so excited about the thousands of dollars I was going to get in the mail when a friend and I came up with the brilliant idea of sending that one back and forth to each other.

I was going to get so many Pokémon cards.
