The suggestions for email addresses if yours was already taken used to include what you entered plus the last two digits of your birth year. I wonder how many people born in 1988 followed that advice and now deeply regret it.

Let's not let neonazis take culturally common shit like the okay sign, thumbs up, or literal numbers please.
