@uwu.edu is a very emaily of a college
*kid named Paint
Congratulations, that’s the joke.
WOW lol, big fan of kids shows who put in some jokes for the adults, that is a spicy one tho!
Animaniacs was special.
A+
Goodnight everybody!
I worked with a guy named Aaron Dick who who was cursed with always getting [email protected]
Aaron was actually very nice.
Someone whose name is Dick must face a lot of issues in addition to email IDs
His parents knew exactly what they were doing when deciding on a name with A.
I worked in IT for a bit and the automatically generated emails were first initial last name
With manual adjustments in some cases, such as Sarah Hart (shart@…)
My company users first letter of the name and the full surname. I thought it was odd when I saw Gina.Ross@… Until I realized.
Once saw
hadcock@example.comat an employer. On the other hand Hannah thought it was hilarious.Hmm, that’s probably enough to dox myself to ex-collegues.
Okay if the ha came from Hannah, was her last name Dcock? Or was it Hannah D. Cock?
Hannah Adcock.
Oh, duh. As a person who’s had the same firstletterlastname format email at a company I’ve worked at, I should’ve realized that lmao
Mostly I get given my first name or full name. Getting just
firstname@company.comfeels pretty awesome when it’s a common-ish name too.That’s a serious power move in a large org.
Unfortunately that’s always been in small orgs lol
Though in one that grew rapidly, I was in the last batch of people whose mugs had no last names on them. I think my employment contract was like #80 or something and 3 years later when I left, there were like 200 or 300 people working there
Just wait until she switches to [email protected]
It’s just an invitation to use the Unix finger utility to find user info on them. Like a shortcut to a profile.
I have always made a .plan file on every unix-like system I have been on. Just in case I get fingered. Heck, even my at home single user devices have a .plan. Just to give the hackers a treat.
This is a priceless gift, Megan. Use it to its fullest potential, and great things will follow.
I really hope she was able to get a different email. Cause after this has made the rounds on the internet theres no way that address is even usable anymore.
I used to work with a guy named Paul Nessel who became “PNESS” on our network.
The other way around would be cooler. Sounds like a pirate in pain.

honestly this is your fault for having the last name finger. skill issue tbh
And then you’re suspended for an offensive username.
And the poor lady probably already had a childhood filled with name-based insults.
Is this a US university? I’d imagine this Megan Finger here could sue for millions of punitive damages for getting such a username.
She could probably just contact IT to get it changed…
Yeah, or make a scene and be rich. What would you do?
contact IT and get it changed. who’s got time to spend years in court to settle for three fiddy…
Contact IT and get it change. There’s no way this is worthy of a lawsuit, let alone something worth million.
Most states have laws saying there has to be a chance to take a simple remedy first. So your case would likely get thrown out if you didn’t go to IT and try first. It’s when you give them the opportunity to fix it and they refuse that you get rich.
even without such a law everyone’s going to think you’re an idiot anyways and not bother with your nonsense, always get evidence in writing.
I’ve heard you guys hate puns, but dedicating a whole lawsuit type to them is a bit over the edge, IMO…
