“The compendium of ill thought out web addresses, largely from
companies who naively slurred their innocent-sounding names into a
single word without noticing the resulting double entendres, lists
more than 150 “slurls”, or slur URLs.

“One example of what can go wrong when choosing web addresses is
Big Al’s bowling alley in Vancouver, which presumably did not
notice when naming its site that “I love Big Al’s” with spaces
removed could equally be read as “I love bi gals”.

“Also included in the list is the Mole Station Nursery, a
business in Australia selling gardening goods which adopted the web
name “molestationnursery” before changing it to
“molerivernursery”.”
