Is it normal to feel insulted when someone gives you their yahoo email address?

I know they probably have a gmail account.

    You're doing something wrong with business, or socially if you're given [email protected]

    I have a hotmail and a gmail. However, I don't give out my email to people if I don't know them. Be glad you got anything.

          I have a vague memory of my AOL account. Those were dark days.

    I have a Yahoo e-mail address, and it seems normal to me.

    I've had my yahoo email since 1998. I still use it. I give my gmail account as an alternative, but I still use my yahoo email.

    Oh for fuck sake... 🤦‍♂️

    I just watched Black Mirror's "Nosedive" episode, where the whole society is run on a system where the ratings others give after every passing interaction determines what you can do, where you can live, and so on.

    Then I read this...

    Seriously, dude, if you get yer knickers in a knot over the "quality" of the email address someone gives you, your life must be pretty damn sweet and you must have fuck-all serious to worry about.

    Get over it.

      Boojum is way too boojee if he doesn't need likes. But seriously, the Christmas episode with John Hamm messed me up.

        I'm only halfway through season three, and I've yet to see an episode that didn't mess me up and linger in my head. White Christmas was particularly effective on that score. I suspected things weren't as they appeared halfway through, but the twists at the end got me. Shocking but entirely plausible, given human nature and the technology available in the show's world.

          The VR beta tester episode was good too.

    Even email is pretty outdated unless it is a business. I mean people do not communicate personally over emails anymore.

    But to use yahoo or AOL for a main email address? It does seem a bit outdated.

    Are these the same people that ask if you have a myspace account?
