My Grandfather's Computer: A Dramatization

I get so much spam these days, and my email doesn’t do a damn thing about it. The spam folder doesn’t catch it.

Well, sometimes you have to flag it as spam so it…

I’ve done that.

How?

I add the email addresses to the list of bad email addresses.

Okay, that won’t work, because you’re probably never going to get it from the same address twice.

I’m going to call my internet about it.
What?

Shhhh. It’s ringing. Hello? Hello? Yes, uh, yes. My email address gets too much spam. My username? Well, it’s not, uh, it’s not with your company.

Grandpa…

It’s a Hotmail. A Hotmail. What? Oh. Okay. Well alright. Thank you. Goodbye.

I want to save these emails, I hate deleting them. They’ve got jokes in them.

Well, you can make a new folder for emails you want to keep.

How do I do that?

Okay, go to…can I use the mouse? No? Okay, go to “File”… now click it with your mouse.

What mouse?

The curs— the arrow. Click it with the arrow.

I clicked it.

Okay, now go to “New…” now click “new folder.”

…Where is that.

[pointing] Right there.

But that just says “Folder.”

Well, yes, but it’s under the “New…” menu, so it’s like “New…Folder”.

That doesn’t make sense. It should have its own thing.

Well—

I’m going to call my internet about it.
