Massachusetts Gets Its Own Hip Internet Name

Overhype

Everyone keeps trying to come up with a good nickname to compete with "Silicon Valley". Not so long after Virigina announced it's the "Internet Capital" (yeah, sure), Massachusetts announces it's the ".commonwealth". Yes, there's a dot before commonwealth. Ha ha. Very funny.

    Uh

    This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Just the thought of it makes me want to vomit on my own mother. What are they thinking? Are they expecting people who actually USE internet to think this is so super-cool?
    I am starting a campaign to exile MA from the US. Join me, brothers.
