I am sure that everyone has used a WhoIs utility (such as http://www.internic.org/whois.html) for querying the owner of a domain name such as microsoft.com. There is however an alternative to these Web forms which provides more information allowing you to search not just for strings matching a domain name, but also for strings matching registered hostnames of domain names. This provides hysterical insight into the minds of some Webmasters. For a laugh take a look at some of these hostnames registered with microsoft.com or google.com in them.

MICROSOFT.COM.WILL.LIVE.FOREVER.BECOUSE.UNIXSUCKS.COM
MICROSOFT.COM.WILL.BE.BEATEN.WITH.MY.SPANNER.NET
MICROSOFT.COM.SOFTWARE.IS.NOT.USED.AT.REG.RU
MICROSOFT.COM.SHOULD.GIVE.UP.BECAUSE.LINUXISGOD.COM
MICROSOFT.COM.IS.NOT.HOSTED.BY.ACTIVEDOMAINDNS.NET
MICROSOFT.COM.IS.GOD.BECOUSE.UNIXSUCKS.COM
MICROSOFT.COM.HAS.ITS.OWN.CRACKLAB.COM
MICROSOFT.COM

GOOGLE.COM.ZOMBIED.AND.HACKED.BY.WWW.WEB-HACK.COM
GOOGLE.COM.YAHOO.COM.MYSPACE.COM.YOUTUBE.COM.FACEBOOK.COM.THEYSUCK.DNSABOUT.COM
GOOGLE.COM.IS.NOT.HOSTED.BY.ACTIVEDOMAINDNS.NET
GOOGLE.COM.IS.HOSTED.ON.PROFITHOSTING.NET
GOOGLE.COM.ACQUIRED.BY.CALITEC.NET
GOOGLE.COM

To see the complete list (r rated) try running the code yourself. Post a response with your funniest hostname or domain names other than these two that are particularly funny.
