like, GiantHairyNipplemonsters.com…

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

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

“Exactly, luthis@gameale.com.”

“… 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.
