Have any of you folks ever seen an email address on a resume so ridiculous you wouldn't hire the person?

I once got a resume with Doobie911@_____.com

I laughed, but didn't hire the young stoner.
However, I didn't notice the address until the interview was taking place. At the end of the interview he actually asked when the job was slated to start and wondered if it would interfere with his summer Widespread panic dates.

At least it was un- (or at least less) intentional.

Yes. This happened a ton at my last job where we pretty much only hired people straight out of college.

Worst one I got was something like drunkgirlll817@xyzdomain.com

I did not hire her. But my counterpart did. When he left, I was managing both teams. I had to fire her because she either didn't show up for work or came in drunk.

Who could have possibly foreseen such a potentiality!

Yes, someone applied here with an email address of "hottieboomalatie___@yahoo.com" She was anything but a hottie.

Would it have helped her chances if she was attractive? What if she was someone who was really good looking but then never dropped the baby weight? Where are we drawing the line here?

Not and email address on a resume, but when I was working at the bank, I had a customer who was having trouble with his online banking. Trying to troubleshoot the issue, I asked him for his user ID. He turned red, and mumbled "its spelled F-A-G-A-T-R-O-N"

Me: Fagatron?
Him: Yeah...
Me. Ok Mr. Tron, let's see if we can get this fixed for you.

A kid that applied and didn't get an interview wrote and asked why. I gave him a list of pointers for applying for jobs and one was to make a firstname.lastname@gmail account.
