The site is criticized for its unfortunate domain name, which leads to misunderstandings and inappropriate associations. Users humorously speculate about the origins of the name and the implications for the business owner, who has to deal with the fallout of potential email fraud and confusion among visitors. The conversation also touches on the existence of parody sites that are deemed superior to the original, highlighting the absurdity of the situation. Another site mentioned is Time Cube, noted for its confusing content and design, further emphasizing the theme of poorly executed websites. The thread combines humor with critiques of web design and domain naming, showcasing how a single misstep can lead to widespread ridicule and unintended consequences.

as far as ogrish...thats terrible. stuff like that makes me sick...very very sick and apalled and even scared. scared of the world we live in. I have no idea what sort of sick people get anyting out of watching beheadings.

And I have one question for anyone who it may concern: why, when two people get in a fight, is there no attempt made by anyone to break it up, even when it's down to one person just beating the other one when they are down?

They're not deleted...can't you see them? :-p

Okay, it's Enigma's fault. He decided to break GD protocol and be a good citizen about not hijacking a thread, so split that part of the discussion into another thread.
