Just started first coffee. Almost clicked that phishing email link. but reflexively checked From and Reply-To, noticed different domains.

Technically incorrect but morally true.

I don’t care if it’s genuine or a shtick. Blocking OP for sins against both aesthetics and pragmatism. Whether you want soul-cleansing coffee or esophagus-cleansing sludge, make it your own damn self.
