Sequential threads are coming to my inbox in the form of spam. This duo, for example:

From: Tanya M  
Subj: FW: Santa Is Not Happy

From: Tanya M  
Subj: FW: The Colonoscopy

Guess it’s bad news for poor ol’ Saint Nick, and so close to his next work day, too.

Further down the list, I see:

Subj: Confirm your identity  
Subj: mutant flagler

Insulting me does not engender my compliance.

So how’s your inbox looking?
