Things you Want Out of your Inbox Vol. 37

Those of you that have a Yahoo email account know that is has a feature that allows you, when you're logged into your Yahoo account, to simply scroll over the mail link, and get a drop down that will show you the senders of the last 4 messages, with the begining of the subject line. Of course, it's a small window, so it can't give you a full subject line. Now, I really only use this account for my online purchasing, as I set up my accounts with Amazon and Ebay and what not using that address, and frankly, I"m too lazy to change it. SO, I get a lot of junk mail there, most of it useless stuff that doesn't get a second glance.

Nevertheless, imagine my surprise when I was at work the other day, and happened to absently scroll over the link and saw this as one of the messages:

Sender Subject
Tiffany & Co. New Tiffany Cock

Yeah, that's where it got truncated. Apparently, it was for cocktail rings, as I found out when I had a chance to actually see the whole subject line later in the day.

Of course, those of you that know what's going on with me lately can imagine what I saw the first time I read this, when the subject read to my eyes "Tiffany's New Cock". Then, I refocused and thought that the email was simply about Tiffany's selling cock rings......and somehow that made me feel better......
