This exchange – part of a conversation with a call centre belonging to a well-known company - is 100 per cent genuine, and what follows left me unable to speak for at least half an hour:Me: "Could you send confirmation to my email address?"
Call centre: "Sure – ready for it now"
Me: "My first name dot my last name at gmail dot com"
Them: "Cool! How did you get that?"
Me: *Facepalms*
Sometimes, I despair for the future of the human race

Someone married to me wanted to know why we couldn't fax something from the house we are temporarily staying at. The one with no phone.
But the fax machine is there, right?
I didn't smack my forehead. I smacked his.
So why didnt you go for Alistair.Coleman at gmail.com?
At least it wasn't "Oh, you must be ancient to have got a gmail address without a number in it."
Debster: *facepalms*
myfirstname.mylastname@gmail.com sounds like a very long email address to me :p
Have you received any mail from this person yet?
Funnily enough, no.
Being an early adopter of the Gmail, I got my name without numbers as an address. WIN!
Shep: I got in on the first day of BT's webmail service and got ac@talk21.com. CURSED - I got every single email in the world for university students from parents whose parents didn't put dots in .ac email addresses.
Can you help me pick courses for my precious, little Snoogums?
work´s, doesn`t
