Everyone felt the buzz of excitement when you got your first email. It was a huge step on the path to adulthood. Unfortunately, what we thought was a great way of showing our personality now can’t be remembered without a facial expression that looks like you’ve just sucked on a lemon.

We wanted to see if anyone’s were more awful than ours, so [email protected] and [email protected] set out to find the most cringeworthy addresses on campus.
