Hell.com is being sold at Web domain name auction – Oct. 27, 2006

The online address is the latest to be put up for sale in a growing market for domain names, consisting of Internet addresses people type in for Web sites, which has been fueled by the surge in Internet advertising, the newspaper said.

I don’t really care about hell.com – as search engines get better and better, the necessity for a good, memorable domain name goes down.  But the sentence quoted above is really awesome.  It’s like saying, “a growing market for houses, consisting of buildings that people live in”.  Whoever wrote that sentence doesn’t seem to have any understanding at all of what they’re talking about.  I mean, if the market for domain names consisted of cuddly little puppies and Elvis memorabilia, would it still be the market for domain names?

The Truth About Cars Chevrolet Uplander This review is funny in part because I’m ashamed of American car companies and their continued quest to not provide anything useful to the world beyond jobs for factory workers, so I like hearing GM-bashing. But it’s also funny for phrases like “execrable automotive aardvark” and “the Uplander’s plastics seem designed by rental car companies for rental car companies; their ability to withstand endless applications of industrial strength ammonia being their only saving grace.”. I think most phrases with the word “execrable” are funny. That’s because it sounds like “excrement”! Or looks like it. Or something. Great. This is the 100th post on Complaint Hub, and I’m making poop jokes.
