Barry Cyrus Dot Com? Of Course…
In a quite boastful way to celebrate my upcoming fourth third blog anniversary (yeah, right), I thought of buying myself a web domain. As in The Big Blinking Dot Com. I was willing to upgrade my WP account and my, well, blogger-self in general. Only to find out via GoDaddy that…
FML: GoDaddy says BarryCyrus.com has been, sniff, sold. Grr.
BarryCyrusDotCom is already taken.
WHAT?! ASDFGHJKL??!
BarryCyrusDotCom is already taken???! I was more of mad than disappointed. I felt like that familiar, sassy, black&white comic strip with the character who cries a long and winding “FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU!” This isn’t just a trade on web property; this is identity crisis to the core!
Whoever you are, you domain-stealer! You slut-faced, ill-pathetic, scrotum-breath clone: Do me a favor and melt.

nice and not nice! hahahaha :))
para kang nawalan ng identity eh noh. btw, i sent you an email and sorry to delay the project. hehe
why not try barrycyr.us?
i checked and it’s still available. hehe
Barrycyr.us has been recommended by a friend too. But it’s too pretentious for me. And I’d find it hard to say it when I actually utter it to friends.
“Hey, visit my blog. It’s now Barry Sair Dot Us.” Err, it doesn’t sound that right for me. haha.
Hahahaha true. Saying it out loud is kinda weird. A domain name should be easy on the tongue and ears. 😀
WORD.
Hey Barry!
It must be very aggravating to find a domain name that you really like . . . only to find that it’s no longer available. You could try other extensions (.net, .org) or even opt for .ph. The only setback is its expense.
How about looking for idiotbox.com, idiotbox.net, etc.? I believe it would be easier to find your blog if its name was the same as its domain.
Hope you’ll find a suitable domain.
Cheers!
I somehow wanted barrycyrus.com to top them all cos it would look like I just dropped off the DotWordpress, and that’s it. It also sounds proper and still me, which I like most. I bet idiotbox.com is taken as well, hmm.
OMG , it’s like your identity was robbed then and there. why not ‘thebarrycyrus.com’? it’s the closest 🙂
Another brilliant yet uncomfortable idea. Hehe. Too haughty. I cannot be The (only) BarryCyrus in the first place cos the site’s been already taken by some anonymous American twerp. 😦
Haha. it’s like being THE Ateneo. 😀 Dot com or not, yours is still one of my favorites 🙂 Classy.
Aww thatsosweet p0wZh haha 🙂
magdemanda ka sir barry. ahahahahaha
wow dapat ka ng dumatcom talaga
i agree with you na dapat barrycyrus.com siya dapat no more no less
in short insert wordpress (dahil nabili na ang .com) just kidding
hintayin nalang natin magexpire nung unang nakabili
or verybarrycyrus.com, therealbarrycyrus.com basta makakaisip ka din
keep on…
be blessed!
I think the site’s going to expire ng August this year. Pero I was like, di na bale, as long as the barrycyrus.com is not a porn site that mistakes my identity for it, I’m good 🙂
awww…hope you find some other domain name soon. ako maswerte lang na wala pang nagmamayari ng pangalan ko kaya nakuha ko agad siya. ahaha!
Hehe. Pero ayos lang, I’ve resolved to not buy a domain. It’ll make the whole blogging thing demanding and time-consuming, if ever.
Oops, Taken na. Haha. Sa akin kaya, me mang-agaw pa nung muntanga kong title? Haha.
I won’t be that certain. Check GoDaddy hihi
Bwahahaha. Your reaction was priceless.
Try barrycus.com ;p
Err haha no way
Ako din, gusto ko ng dotcom!
Play with your name na lang.hehe 🙂
Nah, wag na lang pala. Hehe. Im not a famed blogger anyway hehe
How about BarryCyrusDotNET? Kung gusto mo pala ng free web hosting i-email mo ako. Domain name na lang ang babayaran mo, the web hosting thingy is on me. Kung interesado ka lang naman. =)
Wow thatso generous of you! 🙂
But no thanks hehe i’ve figured that i don’t need a dotcom seriously. 🙂
hmmm…if i were you, i’d take Salbe seriously. as in. hahaaha!
Deins. Haha.
I’ve thought of it, and I guess I’m keeping this muna. Since dotcom is still unavailable, and mas cool pag wala pa talagang real site. haha whatever that means.
But thanks for the heads up guys!
OH NO! Terrible! I think if it were me I’d hunt the person down… or demand the internet refund my life in some way… and then immediately have my identity checked to make sure it wasn’t stolen and someone wasn’t out there using my name, social security number, AND credit card.
Could you use .org? That’s pretty normal.
hahaha that would be pretty obsessed then!
Uh, except that I’m no organization hehe. Worry not, I’ve resolved to not using any domain except this for now 🙂
ok, maybe I wouldn’t really do all that, but I would be pissed.
And at least this means you are saving your money!
True! And a domain translates to being more demanding.
That sucks but I hope that you can find a suitable domain name once you decided that you want a domain name anyway (it sounded like a mouthful).
Haha thanks! 🙂 Yeah it sucked big time.
Hahaha now that sucks. Nakakainis nga yung ganyan, I also tried a bunch of different titles before ending up with TheCreativeDork, which was a blessing in disguise for me. Hehehe.
cute kaya ng website name mo haha so you! 🙂
bigaten. 3 years old ka na. teka sino kaya kumuha ng dapat ay dotcom mo! haha
Someone anonymous haha murder!
ahahaha ! pagbigayan mo na, o baka naman para sayo talaga un ? malay mo, gift nya sayo un sya na bumili pero para sayo pala . hehe
hapi aniv!:)
Lol. I wished. S/he could have it for all hell likes. As long as it’s not a porn site or something, I’m good.
wag kana mag dotcom. minsan block sakin e, hahaha 😀
pero kahit anu pa yan, babalikan parin kita. haha
Naks. Salamat! Haha
haha . may malisya pagkakasabi ko nun . lol. hapi aniv ulet 🙂
Whoaaaa. Noooo. Haha.
Thanks!
I felt the same way when I found out someone had taken holycrap.com
haha they all must be exterminated!
