   The vanity .tld system was a terrible idea and ICANN should be beaten with barracuda for allowing it. Nobody needed a TLD for '.boats' or '.cheese'

     @amuse @lcamtuf I believe that was Postel writing about TCP whilst failing to realize what a mess he was setting us all up for.

     @lcamtuf Reminds me of the original SMTP RFC guidelines; "You should be strict about the RFC while sending, but graceful when receiving".
