Inferring personality from e-mail addresses:

I remember my first e-mail address which was four_eyed@.... (it was in the nineties of last century when I was 14 years old)

What was yours?

I've had blindrabbits@gmail.com for ages...

*PS*
Yes I don't care if the whole internet knows my e-mail address... I actually enjoy getting ridiculous amounts of spam.

Gmail was launched on April 2004.

Does it mean that you did not have an e-mail address before 2004?

My first e-mail was an AOL account that I only had for two months; I don't even remember the address.  After that it was the mundane kern@mail.nitco.com.

17 here as well big_smile

Hmm lets see there was nightvisitor@sbcglobal.net then... nightvisitor@gmail.com and now it's just my name with a period at @gmail.com. I fail to recall why I chose nightvisitor for my ID. I think it had to do with some random arabic word that meant a night visitor. Looking back it's just really creepy now....

I always just use some contraction of my real name, it's boring, but professional. I've noticed a lot of Japanese friends' 携帯 email are usually strange English combinations. Are they randomly chosen or intentional? If intentional, why would they choose stuff like "night_stranger@" or "faithless_proctor@"?

my first was sam_the_slug@hotmail.com

I remember being giant_fetus@hotmail.com.  It was a reference to Half-Life, as I always though the final boss looked like a giant fetus. 

Before that I might have had Tzadeck_Hellshade or something like that?  As you can see, Tzadeck has stuck with me since I lifted it off of some silly article about the Sephirothic System of Ten Divine Names when I was 11 (12 years ago).  I don't actual speak any Hebrew, nor am I Jewish, yet Tzadeck is the name of a Hebrew letter.  Hellshade was a clan in an old RPG chat thing that was on Yahoo.

hmm I think skating was really big then, and I was a poser so I'm pretty sure I went through a string of "xxsk8punkxx" or some crap like that.  Can we count AOL screennames?  Everytime I wanted to get a new identity online I had to ask my mom to sign in with the master account so I could change it to something cooler to get online girlfriends.  1994!  Hurts to talk about!
