I had a domainer moment :-(

So a few months back I bought smo.ext Today I was thinking to myself- ok let's start getting in this smo game and buy a nice name you know, spend some money. So I finally settled on "SMO King" because it catchy enough where I could use it on forums etc. So I checked the whois and was shocked that the .com was registered since 1995. I started checking all sorts of obscure extensions cuz i really liked the name. I email the owner $350. Well story short... it took me hours to realize that "SMO King" is Smoking"

I didn't get a reply back. I should have offered $600:undecided:

Back in the days, I tried to buy asm.org about assembler coding, but then I realized it actually meant orgasm.
