Expert Sex Change? Whoa...I know who could use that...
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
LOL......that is one funny list!
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
I'm at work, and deathly afraid of clicking on those links.
Posted by advice for robots (Member # 2544) on :
Yeah. Can anyone give the OK on those? I'd love to see the sites.
Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :
I clicked on 'em all. They are what the text claims they are, not what the domain name looks like.
Edit: Which is to say, they are work safe, although if someone reviews just the list of domain names you visit without looking at the sites themselves you might not want to risk it Posted by advice for robots (Member # 2544) on :
Looks like the folks at Penis Land are well aware of how their name could be misconstrued. Posted by jennabean (Member # 8590) on :
Ahhh, funny! Except I think someone has actually used a vacation on Pen Island to try and pick me up. Now that I see it written... Ew!
Posted by Katarain (Member # 6659) on :
What's gasheating supposed to be?
Posted by Boon (Member # 4646) on :
Make the break after the H.
Posted by camus (Member # 8052) on :
Funny indeed, though I think the Pen Island website is intended as a joke and is not a real company.
Posted by El JT de Spang (Member # 7742) on :
That's awesome.
Truly hilarious. This is the kind of funny you only get on the internet, where the letters are all smushed together and lowercase.
Posted by Katarain (Member # 6659) on :
Oh. I googled it. It's not very funny and not obvious. But the others are good. Posted by TrapperKeeper (Member # 7680) on :
I dont really get the gasheating either.
Ok, gash eating. Still not funny or gross.
Posted by Katarain (Member # 6659) on :
Gash is one slang term I've never heard used for that part of the body. It's actually pretty dorky. I hope it never gets popular.

Out of (sort of unrelated) curiosity, why are some foreign sites .com? Isn't that specifically for American sites?
Posted by TrapperKeeper (Member # 7680) on :
.com means commercial site. Dont know how it relates to international business, but I would think that if any company regardless of nationality bought a domain name from an american registry and it was available, they could use .com.
Don't know, but i bet if they registered the domain name from another countries registrar, it might be coke.com.uk or something like that.
Posted by fugu13 (Member # 2859) on :
.com is intended to mean commercial site, and may be purchased by anyone for any purpose. Every country (including the US) also has a country tld (top level domain), with which they may do as they wish.
The US's is .us, the uk's is .uk, tuvalu's is .tv, et cetera. In the case of the US government, they have also appropriated .gov.
The UK puts commercial sites (afaik, this really means anybody who bothers to purchase such a domain name) under .co.uk .
Such a practice is not required; a government could reserve the country domain for left handed plowmen under five feet tall whose daughters are named luanne, and make everyone else use .com/net/org (et cetera) domains, but usually they divide up the domain similarly to how the main tlds are divided up.
Tuvalu, mentioned above, is a small nation which sold the rights to their tld for a considerable sum of money, instead of using it themselves.

I always hated hyphens. At least I know why those guys picked it. At least I would have grabbed the other names (w/o "s": www.expertexchange.com) and had them relocate to the real site.
Posted by MyrddinFyre (Member # 2576) on :
Those are funny!
Posted by Foust (Member # 3043) on :
Haha. It took me about three seconds to get gash eating, and I thought it was funny.
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
eesh! You can't let me read things like that when I'm trying to not wake everyone up! They made me laugh out loud. quite literally, lol.

Ah. Now I get it. Yeah, that's pretty lame. Too obscure to really be effective. If I just saw "whorepresents" or "molestationnursery" without any context, I would definitely pause and raise an eyebrow. But "gasheating" I would not, without special prompting, read as anything but "gas heating".
Posted by Grisha (Member # 6871) on :
I always thaught a gash was a bad wound that bleeds a lot, so i'd probably see gasheating as gash eating, then realize that it made no sense, and was gas heating.
guess i just don't get it. Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

I know of a local shop with a similar conundrum in the name.
