Not my cup of tea!

But it does fit the definition of a rat rod: Put good money into a wreck in order to use parts that normally would have scrapped.

That is just this thread. But if you try to block the Curated Content Editor the system tells you that you can’t block him. 🤬

But not the right to not be notified in the first place.

I don't get any notifications if I unsubscribe but see it in the list of current threads, problem is someone replies to it and it stays awhile on page one...
If you are getting email notifications they can be stopped too by going to your subscribed threads , clicking the box then scroll to the bottom where it says selected threads open that window and select your preferences
