What was your AIM screen name?

This question is aimed pretty squarely at the older Millennials out there. Remember AIM? (AOL Instant Messenger) I’m an old Millennial myself and I can say that all of my peers are at least a little bit embarrassed about their AIM names. Mine was PBDiy1polo. “PB” for “paintball” because I played a lot of it in middle and high school. “Diy” for my last name. The number 1 and “polo” because I was a water polo goalie and goalies are always assigned the number one. Haha. It’s funny to remember this stuff! This is a great date question because it’s a throwback, it’s a bit embarrassing/vulnerable, and it actually tells a lot about people in most cases! (The question can be modified for anyone by asking the more general “What was your first online screen name?”)
