Unintentionally hilarious company URLs

At TV tropes they actually have an entry called The Problem with Pen Island with various examples.

Some Italian power generation company had www.powergenitalia.com a while back.

I always found Digitalis Land to be funny (aka Digital Island dot com)

A local realtor has a website beginning “anniesold”.
I always wonder just how old.

A motor shop in Southern California is called Hall and Associates. Their logo reads as Hall Ass… Intentional, I’m sure.

My credit union used to be called Washington Federal Telephone Credit Union: WTF Credit Union. The URL used to be WTFcu.org. A couple years ago they changed to Signal Financial.

Why would

Washington
Federal
Telephone

have the initials WTF?

Are you sure you didn’t mess up the order somewhere?

Seriously, WFT?

There’s a car dealership group in the Kansas City area with the name of “O’Neill”. Many of the cars they sell have license frames that proudly proclaim “oneillauto.com” or “oneillhonda.com”. I can’t help but read it as “One Ill Auto”.

The first time I saw blogspot.com, I parsed it as “blo G-Spot.” Imagine my disappointment when I clicked on the link.

You know, everyone always talks about that format with a story of some poor schlub getting a terrible email address but I was envious of the B. Eastman at my last company

I was less envious of an old university housemate named Stuart Adcock. Adcock is bad enough but having your email handle as “sadcock” is just rubbing it in.

Not a company URL, but my company once had an employee whose last name was Nuss, and whose first name began with A. Naturally all company email addresses were in the form of first initial, last name, all lowercase.

My two favorite real life examples of this were the e-mail addresses of employees named Mike Asher and Larry Overman.

Meh, he probably likes it when people rub his sadcock.

In a previous job, with the same email convention, I worked with a Claire Allcock. I always wondered why she didn’t ask for an exception to the email policy.

My favourite URL is a butcher in London, Hussey’s of Wapping Lane, whose website is http://www.husseyswappinglane.co.uk/

I have several hussies I want to swap. What’ll you give me for them?
