"Can I send this to your personal email?"

"Sure, it's juggalo4life@yahoo.com"

[-] aeki@slrpnk.net 24 points 6 months ago

Well it does say "4life"

Man, Mine was Prowler587@aol.com (I changed the numbers for leave me alone purposes) and I made it in the 90's when I was like 13. A lot of my screen names at websites continued to be that for several years and one of those sites I still get on and use.

Only years later as the internet evolve did I ever think to self reflect at how creepy a screen name that was while going around and hanging out in chat rooms. I picked the name because the Plymouth Prowler had just come out and I had it on one of my school folders and I thought the car looked really awesome.

TLDNR: Plymouth made me look like a creep.

Ten year old me got a beautiful white backpack and made the username whitebag567@gmail.com (numbers also changed), not realizing until over a decade later, that I seemed like a drug dealer.

My steam login is Hotmail.....

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 24 points 6 months ago

Hotmail, now there is a name I haven't heard in a while. we used to troll a handsome guy at work. After people left his desk he'd come over " Guys can you stop telling staff my e-mail is HotMale@hotmail.com"

[-] RealFknNito@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

Thousands of dollars in games hinging on support for an almost dead domain. Brave.

I’m almost 50 and have the same email address made up almost 30 years ago. It was so dark & edgy back then.

I’ve aged better than it has. Luckily I have a separate address for work.

[-] TimeSquirrel@kbin.social 11 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

That would put you at about the mid-90s. Peak millennial/gen-x goth/grunge/nu metal era. Makes sense.

[-] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

Gen-X Goth / Grunge… Yup That was me.

Man I miss the ‘90’s

Nope, it's in 13 leaks (haveibeenpwned) and full of spam. Though the provider can use it to train their spam filters.

[-] DoctorRoxxo@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

Those are rookie numbers, I have 45 😎

Eventually it will wrap back around to being edgy and cool in an ironic manner:-).

[-] OmnipotentEntity@beehaw.org 10 points 6 months ago

You give me hope.

"Yes, that's hax0r-noob-slayer@yahoo.com. With a zero in hax0r. And I should have the test results back to you by end of business."

[-] lichtmetzger@feddit.de 17 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Well I got incredibly lucky so I have a firstname@lastname.de address. Why would I ever give that up? 🥰

[-] AlexJD@feddit.uk 17 points 6 months ago

Honestly it's so nice. I ended up buying lastname.tld so now I will always have firstname@lastname.tld even if I change provider because I can just point the domain to whatever provider I like.

[-] howrar@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

I envy all of you who have uncommon last names.

Kinda bummed no one here is representing EarthLink gang. One of my professors used that email and it was clearly made in like ‘92

[-] TronNerd82@lemmy.ml 6 points 6 months ago

Not to be that guy, but ackshually EarthLink was founded in 1994 and, for all I know, may or may not have offered email yet at that point.

Also, AOL gang here, we can't be friends.

[-] LostXOR@fedia.io 10 points 6 months ago

I'm still using my email from before I was 13 (don't tell Google).

[-] clearleaf@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Reminder that your google account has a name which is not just your email address. If you don't use google's other services besides gmail and youtube, you probably don't remember what it is. And you probably put in something stupid if not completely offensive. If you suddenly have to use google docs or something, people will see it.

[-] Lexam@lemmy.ca 9 points 6 months ago

I have a yahoo address with only five letters.

[-] venji10@feddit.de 8 points 6 months ago

Guys, this is just a bot. It wants you to share your email addresses so it can sign you up for spam newsletters...

Tfw the results for your prostate exam go to xXxB0ngLo4rd_420xXx @ aol.com

[-] Bristle1744@lemmy.today 6 points 6 months ago

Umm, have a classy username for your official e-mail, and use the teenage one for everything else.

I still use ghostinator@hotmail.com for newsletters. I registered it for a beta demo in 1999.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

You're about to get an onslaught of spam. Never post your email in plain text online.

[-] KpntAutismus@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

i've since made a more professional e-mail, but everything remotely to do with personal stuff uses the adress i made when i was 10.

I lost my AOL email long ago, that was the first one I remember, but I have lost many more from the decades since. Still got Yahoo! though.

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

By the magic of paying an actual mail provider instead of using big corpo free ones you can have as many and as varied mail addresses as you want. And they all end in the same inbox. You can even get fancy and register domains and shit to breach into the world of ultimate cool mail addresses.
