There should be a database of oopsies where we can share our oopsies and upvote the most epic ones.

... already exhausted about thinking what can pass as an oopsie, what is the appropriate human suffering threshold we can laugh about and keep it light?

Got one too. Not on my personal email, but on my work one (that has never been used for subscribing to HBO, unsurprisingly). My work email address is in github and some other public email lists

How do they get the email address if a user never entered it into their system?? This is mind blowing

For realz… what’s up with this type of system sending messages to users who never shared the rx’ing address with HBO?
