pizza.com Sold For $2.6m

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the meanwhile-people-are-losing-their-homes dept.

f8d noted a beeb bit on the fact that the pizza.com domain name was sold for a ridiculous 2.6m bucks. Can there be a bubble and a recession at the same time, or do the two cancel each other out like Penn & Teller?

    I've PERSONALLY been so hungry I couldn't make it to google, typing "pizza" directly into the URL bar AT LEAST 50,000 times, spending $20+ dollars each time. If there's a couple of more people out there like me, they've already broken even.

    I'll definitely take that moral to heart for the next time the 90's come around.
