      Gmail account is firstname.lastname and neither of them are rare.

      Even though I don’t use Gmail anymore I keep that account alive.

      I still have [religious figure]@gmail.com

      The account is completely overrun with spam. And there are about 20 people who seem to think it is their actual email address and I get like legit power bills and stuff on it.

        I essentially had godXXX but my friend got offended so I changed the password to something random and stopped using it

          It was probably the frequency. There was a point in time that I was making a bunch of comedic GameFAQs alts, and I probably did too many emails too fast. I didn’t think there would be consequences! Lol
