First initial and full last name, 6 characters which is the minimum for Gmail. Thank you younger responsible self!
I miss my dimbulb@poop.com email.
My email is banchotxx😂
Look, I got a DEFINITIVE ARTICLE and NO numbers. Only the OGs rock that stuff.
At 15: I better get an email address that reflects my interests and personality!
At 25: Ok ok my name is the only permanent thing about me so it should be based on my name.
At 35: why am I revealing this much personal information in my email address? I should just have a random jumble of letters.
I use proton and they have this feature to generate a random email address based on the sits or a note. It’s a little more advanced then user+microsoft@proton.me. and you can deactivate the address so your main inbox stops getting spam.
My man!
I’m at that last stage now but fuck I’m too lazy to change again 🤣
At least I have my burner address…
I have hundreds of e-mail addresses and aliases…

Email aliases incredibly underrated
Rocking my Hotmail since 1998.
Still ocassionaly typo HotMale and get a surprise.
Also still remember the throwaway my friend and I created to sign up for porn site newsletters on dial-up.
I still use my aim screen name as my spam email since roughly age 10. If aol ever shuts down, I’ll be in trouble.
I made a sensible email address with my last name followed by my first initial when google mail first started. Young people are always in awe of the fact that I got to have my name as my email address without adding anything extra to it.
I was that dumb kid who got my first gmail invite from a friend and never thought to use my first name/last name because it was during the time that we all were supposed to be ‘anonymous’ as everyone on the internet was a murderer.
Yep. I’m old enough to have 2 such email addresses.
poopybutthole@hotmail.com checking in!
Forever ago, in a post about “applying for jobs after graduating college” tips on Ask[fuckyouspez], I suggested creating a new email address like FirstName.MI.LastName and use that for applying to jobs, definitely don’t use your old email like Xx_PussyDestroyer420_xX@hotmail.com.
I got banned from the sub for violating their rule of “don’t post emails addresses”.
Young age: “xXx_pussyslayer666_xXx@notevilmail.com is a cool e-mail address!”
Early adulthood: “Noooo, I need to be professional, my mail is now johnsmith1994@notevilmail.com!”
Late adulthood: “For the sake of my privacy, I"m now using xXx_pussyslayer666_xXx@privacymail.com.”
I always used multiple emails, depending on whether they were for professional use or hobby use.
That’s why I’m still BeanieBaby69@AOL.com.
No offense to you, but why does that handle conjure up a vision of someone with a “Karen hairstyle” wanting to speak to the manager?
Ugh you made me have flashbacks. The smell of hairspray is suffocating. Eyes tingling. Ears can’t handle the screeching wails.
Aaaaaggghhhhh
I had the exact same reaction…
