What was your AIM screen name?
‘You’re going to put me on a wall of shame, but I regret nothing’
When was the last time you logged into your AIM instant messenger account? If you’re like me, it was probably during or shortly after middle school.
Well my roommate, Tara, and I hit the center of campus today to ask people to share their embarrassing usernames with us. How does your username compare?

I have to admit, mine was “emssoccerwiz”.
Some people weren’t brave enough to own up to their usernames or “forgot” what they were. But thanks to the courageous bunch who did.
