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.

Oh man, that one is excellent!

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

[-] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

I haven't even checked to see if it's available, it could still be yours!

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

Don't let your dreams be dreams. ischee.se is available so you could do [email protected]

[-] themoonisacheese 10 points 7 months ago

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

[-] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

You imply that you used to have a habit of buying domains for single jokes.

I want details.

[-] themoonisacheese 4 points 7 months ago

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)

For a while, I had butt.online as domain. You can also use subdomains like sexy.butt.online or licks.butt.online or fucks.butt.online... endless buttibilities. I set up [email protected] if someone wanted her email, butt that backfired...

[-] xmunk 18 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

Yeah, I can imagine sh.itjust.works admin giving out his email...

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

Not a domain, but I did register a yahoo email address of [email protected] just to confuse people who asked for my email address.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

Shit, that's why I had to go with [email protected] :/

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

I had [email protected] back when they had free email accounts. No one believed it was real.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

I own [MyFullName].com just so I can have the email me@[MyFullName].com.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

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?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

I also have ben.dover@buggerme.

Bugger Me is a very common phrase down under

[-] flambonkscious 1 points 7 months ago

I remember on the 2000s getting all excited about domainz claiming whore.govt.NZ was available.

I never went through with the request, however. I'm guessing mbie/internal affairs or some other group of snorers would have vetoed it

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".

[-] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

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.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

corn.com is supposedly for sale. My partner thought I was crazy for submitting an inquiry to buy it, but GoDaddy never responded :( There went my dreams of being [email protected] or maybe cornman@corn.com.

Oh well, they probably wanted thousands of dollars anyway. All the 4-character .coms likely got squatted ages ago.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

Brainwashthemasses.org was one I got a long time ago because I thought it funny.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

I have my [email protected] for my primary after deciding to try and reduce my reliance on gmail, that can get good reactions.

I bought ymous.[tld] deliberately to have [email protected] as a functioning joke email for when places request one, though amusingly the reason I didn't say which tld is that it's not one which allows whois masking so it's really not anonymous at all...

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

Also Sausage.party is a good one.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

[-] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

The joke

You are here

[-] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

lemon.party isn't owned by anyone, either.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

I once registered fuckwit.uk just for this, but I'm ashamed to say I never used it.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

Make it redirect to whatever the current PM's website is.
