you could tell the ones that don't own a lot of domains by their responses.
You must be new school because when I started domains costed upwards of $100 what we pay now is fucking peanuts..

UNFORTUNATELY everyone and their brother buys up every god damn domain you can think of so now we gotta pay $1500 for domains.. bullshit if you ask me..
