There's a popular web comic called questionable content where a running gag of the author is to buy bizarre offensive domain names for his comic:

questionablecontent.net

boner.moe

fart.computer

dildo.pizza

ass.golf

mydickandballs.com

dong.zone

butt.church

sexual.fish

unionrobotics.net

69.bingo

poop.rodeo

boners.lol

piss.farm

swole.dog

burgerking.sex

powerful.dog

cum.energy

qc.bike

rectal.dentist

questionablecontent.horse

There's an Italian podcast, Power Pizza, which also does a similar thing, but the domains have a silly/surreal vibe rather than an offensive one. Their website is called unpodcastveramentebellissimoguardaveloconsiglioproprio.com ("A really beautiful podcast, look, I warmly recommend it").

Other examples:

cheschifoesserenudo.online: "Being naked sucks", for merchandise such as T-Shirts, etc. (now offline)

datecideisoldi.com: "Give us money", their Patreon

nondatecideisoldi.com: "Don't give us money", same as above

Ryan North, the author of Dinosaur Comics, does a similar thing. Normally found at qwantz.com he also has

chewbac.ca

dromiceiomim.us

Disappointed he doesn't have t-re.xxx.
Shit, I wanted fart.computer! I don't remember what the project was, but perhaps it's better that way.
Wow..its been years since I read QC! Thanks for reminding me of it :-D

Hmm - Schlock Mercenary is supposed to be launching a new series too...

I can find no mention of this anywhere.

Huh - I guess it ended last year...But I seem to recall when Howard announced the forthcoming end of schlock that he had other stories in mind..

edit: He mentions more stories in the q & a here:

One of these things is not like the other....

That’s a reference to the web comic itself:
