Senior citizen trying to reset a password

In the early days of the internet I was trying to create a username to get a free offer from a company. I tried so many names I had thought of and wanted to use. Every time they’d tell me that name was in use. Finally after about 20 minutes of this I put “Old Fart” and they accepted it. For over a year they sent e-mails to sell me things and I didn’t buy. Finally they sent an e-mail telling me I could change my username if I wanted to. 😂 Eventually they went out of business and no more e-mails.
