Having fun with fake top level domain names.
If you want a good laugh, you should definitely check out the Amazon Original Series Catastrophe. There’s even some domain name humor in the season finale of season two.
Sharon and Rob are fighting, and Rob points out that they need to make arrangements for the kids:
Sharon: You can e-mail me.
Rob: OK. Is your e-mail address still Impatient[explicit]@Mean.jerk?
Sharon: Yeah. Yeah, it is. Is yours still FatIdiot@BadBreath.[explicit]?
Rob then walks to the car, where his drug-and-alcohol addicted friend Fergal is waiting for him. Fergal turns to Rob.
Fergal: Dot [explicit]. That’s awesome. Is that an actual domain name? Because if it is, I will buy that.
My guess is the part I’ve blanked out here (a derogatory term commonly used in Britain) would not pass ICANN’s rules for a top level domain. But you never know what will happen in round 2!
Acro says
Dot .wanker?
John Berryhilll says
” (a derogatory term commonly used in Britain) would not pass ICANN’s rules for a top level domain…”
From the description, I imagine you are suggesting that ICANN would give it a “C” instead of an “A”?
Andrew Allemann says
Yeah, the c word. One of the worst words you can use in America, but commonly used in Britain.
Acro says
“C” word: Cybersquatter 😀
Kevin Murphy says
Are you not allowed to print the word “[explicit]” here for some reason?
Andrew Allemann says
yep. edited
Kevin Murphy says
I find that offensive.
Eric Lyon says
Hilarious! It’s nice to see more mentions of domains in TV shows and movies. Especially comedies! lol 🙂
