like, GiantHairyNipplemonsters.com…

Or maybe better, the domain for beer brewed especially for gamers… Game Ale.

“… that was… luthis at… gaymail… .com???”

“Exactly, [email protected].”

“… g a y…m a i l?”

“What?? No! GAME ALE dot com!”

Just the random shit that comes into my brain when I walk without other stimulus… surely I’m not the only one.

      I worked an ISP in the nineties and a coworker registered atdot.com, ran a home server for it with sendmail, and assigned himself the dotat username. He would tell people over the phone that his email was “dot at at at dot dot com”. This was when you had to contact InterNIC directly to register a domain.

      Could be the same guy for all I know.

      Digression: I registered mouse.net in ~1996 back when TLD categories were being enforced. But the NIC bungled the renewal and by the time I proved it to them it had been snagged by a Korean company. NIC threw their hands up because no one there spoke Korean. I think Altavista’s Babelfish existed then but I don’t remember if it supported Korean.

    I work at a gaming themed brewery and I now desperately wish I had @gameale(.)com as my domain

        Just checked, registered since at least 2018. The .org and .net variants are still available though!

    I own poggers.website which is always funny when I tell people to look at my “poggers website”.

    At some point I tried to register chee.se so my email could be [email protected] but unfortunately it’s a 4-letter domain that spells a common word, so it’s squatted to hell and back.

        Yeah but the whole point was that the @ would replace the a. Besides I have decided I would stop buying domains for single jokes.

            It’s much less funny than it seems. Inside jokes (that way the next time someone makes the joke, you link them thejoke.com or whatever and that’s a bit funny, or just phrases that sound hilarious when you’re on discord at 5AM (I used to own poggers.ninja which I thought was incredible for some reason)

    No, because https://cock.li/ already exists and offers absolutely fantastic email hosting that you’d be proud to put on a business card.

    The link is safeish for work, I swear. The only nsfw thing is the naughty language. No nekked pictures or goatse awaits the brave traveler.

    I pay like $10/yr to keep [email protected] even though I never actually use it.

    Still waiting for the .train TLD to get made. There is .car, .bike, .taxi, .boats, and even .motorcycles but apparently nobody uses trains.

    I’ve always used “Don B. Sonozi” ([email protected]) as my spam email, for shit that demands signup but not verification.

    I figure that one day - one day - a spammer will learn regret.

      Hilarious. As a non native English speaker, that took me a few seconds to get. But it’s so good lmao, I’m stealing this one.

    not joke domains, but when high on acid, my gf and me watched finding nemo. all i had in my head in that time was, how great the idea of a crypto coin named “fishcoin” would be.

    Not to embarrass or unsettle, but I know someone, when debating online, who would ask the other side to send him their evidence, or an article, by email at this address : [email protected]

    In French, if you read all the words and symbols, it translates as “Chris is always right period”.

      Similar. In stores or wherever in-person a hostess asks for my mail for ads or some dumb subscription, I just start to dictate “spam…yes, spam@[myname].com”. Sometimes they believe me and I actually got the spam since I configured a catch-all.

    um, dont look at my instance domain name…

    Person: What’s your email address?

    Me: Firstname @ Lastname . nz

    Person: [email protected]?

    Me: no, didn’t you listen?

    I love to submit my [email protected] E-Mail Adress at In-Person Counters when they ask for an E-Mail-Adress. Makes every person I told it grin :D

    Edit: noticed some sentence building errors. Corrected 'em.

    I don’t think Communist.party is owned by anyone yet.

    Also Sausage.party is a good one.
