I sort of like it when I check my spam folder and I see spam in foreign languages I speak. It's like I've broken in and became one of them.
Sometimes it feels nice when a tram company whose tram I rode regularly over two years ago and haven't been near since sends me an email about updates to its system. I can pretend for a little bit that I'm still there. Just for a little, and then I unsubscribe.
When a game forum I haven't visited in years wishes me happy birthday.
When an old friend's email account sends me a blank subject email, obviously a virus.
(Just seeing their name in my inbox is a pleasant surprise, if only for the briefest moment.)
