National Lampoon's Van Wilder
2002 · Film · 92 min
Directed by Walt Becker
Van Wilder has been attending college for far too many years and is scared to graduate, but Van’s father eventually realizes what is going on. When he stops paying his son's tuition fees, Van must come up with the money if he wants to stay in college, so he and his friends come up with a great fund-raising idea – throwing parties. However, when the college magazine finds out and reporter Gwen is sent to do a story on Van Wilder, things get a little complicated.

When I worked at an ISP we had a lot of landline phone customers too and I'm sure they will continue to for a long time.
At least as long as their current customers keep breathing.
You can run a business off inertia/nostalgia for quite a long time.
People are confused about what I said. Success and Relevance are not the same thing. National Lampoon still has a business too, but I doubt that any of you have seen a new movie of theirs since Van Wilder/Repli-Kate came out in 2002.
A million dollars a year for a domain name is quite a lot. And I know what was paid for the sales of some big (in the keyword marketing/leadgen space) domain names...Sale, not lease.
aphyr is homosexual and isn't afraid to let the world know[1]. I think it is just his own humor. I actually find it pretty hilarious how often he changes his twitter picture and the strange things he switches them to.
It is just a quirk of an incredibly brilliant person, which I personally find hilarious. That being said, he has a great point of view on non-tech things and is a super humble guy. As quoted from the movie Van Wilder, "You shouldn't take life so seriously, you'll never get out alive!"
