Repugnant slob Bob Parsons somehow has this huge Internet domain business, “Go Daddy.” You probably have some web domains registered there, if you have web domains. Here is what this guy did, recently:
Multi-millionaire creep patronizes the most oppressive, vicious government in Africa to slaughter elephants, for fun. And yeah, this is the same cretin who writes insane racist/sexist bullshit on his company blog and puts incredibly offensive/sexist ads on the teevee.
If you’ve got domains registered through this Go Daddy craphole, you might want to move them. Wonkette uses Namecheap, which is offering a very pain-free way to transfer your domains from Go Daddy. (This is not an ad, we are just repulsed by Go Daddy. If you have another easy/moral way to transfer domains, please put it in the comments and we will update this post accordingly.)
Here’s the ABC News report:

Stop those elephants before they kill more precious grass! Way to go, Parsons.
So these "sportsmen" who are so worried about gun control….what is their argument again?
I'm guessing having a nice fence installed for this farmer would cost $5-10K, and Bob Parson's chartered flight and guides to kill the elephant, and celebratory champagne afterwards, costs $75K.
Those fucking elephants, walking around Africa like they owned the place.
Maybe Parsons thought it was Haley Barbour in the wild.
*sigh* If only.
Nah…if that were the case, Parson would be blowing Barbour…not blowing his brains out.
He would have to fight his way through that huge Haley FUPA.
He should be in Amerka killing ourproblem elephants instead. You know, the ones that control the House right now.
too soon
Too "SarahPac" just yet?
What a piece of shit. His esprit de death is only made worse by his bullshit attempt to make it seem like he's there to help the subsistence farmers.
He's a multi-millionaire. He could have bought them some fences. This was all about the bloodlust.
BUILD THE DANG FENCE, MOTHERFUCKER. Jesus, seriously.
On the contrary, the "helping subsistence farmers" shtick is an integral part of this masturbation game. He gets to be The Great White Hunter and The Hero.
Safari Club International: They do the canned hunt endangered species hunts so the rich boys can shoot animals that are nearly extinct for penis enhancement purposes. They also are fond of smoking cigars that smell like burning dogshit and slurping down single malts and driving Hummers (frequently simultaneously). One of those trappings of wealth that leans toward conservative politics and bad taste and atrophied genitalia.
Public service, he's all about public service.
My dream is that someday, that elephant's offspring will be scraping their freshly sharpened tusks free of daddy slime and complaining to each other about how hard it is to get the smell of human out of their trunks.
"When you grow up, if you still feel raw about it, I'll be waiting."
Parsons to elephant who just gutted him: "wow, that really is a Hanzo tusk."
That may be coming true; incidents of elephants attacking villages and killing people have been increasing in recent years in areas with heavy poaching by evil shits like this. It's almost as if these are semi-sentient creatures capable of desiring revenge.

Is this fucker Sarah Palin's Half-retarded Half-brother?
Her Brodad?
I believe the copyrighted term is Bro Daddy.
When you see an adult male wearing his hat on backwards, you know all you need to know.
As the great James Brown said, "If you want to wear a hat without a brim, go buy a hat without a brim."
And James Brown is known for, if nothing else, his impeccable sartorial taste.
So true – I believe he designed his own stage outfits. Not to mention his hair – which Al Sharpton wears to this day.
He probably calls all his friends "dude".
Didn't he also wear an onion on his belt?
Bob Parsons lives in Arizona? I'm shocked, shocked I tells ya.
Men like Parsons make creepy Amway families:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87CIz_HWuyo
is it possible to do something like this without being part of a cult? I don't know these people, but their routine looks like an early stop on the Rajneeshpuram-Jonestown Express.
God Dammit. GregComlish.com has been registered with GoDaddy for years. Fuck. Now I have to switch. Fucking Republican Assholes.
And BTW, Elephants are some of the smartest creatures on the planet. They can open up a bottle of beer and drink it using their trunks. In India Elepants have coordinated raids against villages and then get shitfaced drinking the village booze and then destroy shit. I am serious:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/3423881.stm
Elephants also bury their dead. They have even been known to cover up sleeping humans with palms. They are an entirely sympathetic creatures. They are kind and gentle to people except when they get infuriated when assholes like Bob Parsons start killing them.
One pain in the ass with transfering, is that GoDaddy hides the EPP code you need to make the transfer go through.
So look at your domain on GoDaddy, search for "authorization code" and then click that and then your EPP code will be emailed to you …
That is the idea, anyway. But they still haven't been mailed to me. I used that domainsbyproxy thiing, which is also a Bob Parsons' outfit, and now it won't forward my emails. GAH
Be careful with stuff like the DomainsByProxy thing. If I recall correctly, the legalese on registering a domain is "Thou shalt have thy True and Accurate contact information published," and the "domain privacy" folks get around that by, effectively, taking over ownership of your domains.
It's a legal clusterfuck the lawyers haven't untangled yet. It is, however, a highly amusing way to ruin a spammer's day.
This exactly the kind of bullshit I was worried about.
Nerds, please help me.
While the Hindu villages are being wrecked by elephants on a booze run, the Mooslin villages are no doubt wetting themselves laughing.
Just wait until the elephants wake up with hangovers and go looking for coffee.
That's when the Mormon villages start laughing.
Don't male elephants have a number of mates in the herd?
Or I should read th rest of the thread first.
Be calm, friends. As we speak, Obama is planning to set up a no-fly zone over the elephant factories.
But they're lying down in sorghum fields! Sorghum, sassafras, and spit are 87% of the Zimbabwean economy.
The other 13% is Sadness.
And spit is 94% of that 87%.
That little gun packs more recoil than you thought, asshole.
The tusks on that elephant look pretty tight. He should hunt elephants in Alabama, where Tuscaloosa.
+1 from a Vols fan!
How's that whole Brucey Pearly thing working out for ya?
Haha, pretty fucking shitty, guess I'm back to watching just football for the next 40 years or so
Fuck Fat Phil! Ok, sorry, had to be said.
Haha.
I must say though, it was a sad day when I had to retire my "My Coach Is Fatter Than Your Coach" game day shirt. Especially when we got that greasy taint Kiffin in trade.
He's only doing it for the sorghum. The man's a pure humanitarian.
I remember when this asshole started Go Daddy, in the storage building behind his shit box house in Cave Creek, AZ. He called it "Go Daddy Ranch". What a douchebag.
On behalf of REAL hunters everywhere, fuck you. Also.
You mean there's a Republican who is racist, wants to shoot anything in Africa that moves, rips people off for money and thinks he should be able to do whatever he wants without consequences?
Well, gee.
Announces presidential exploratory committee in 3 . . . 2 . . .1
Nice commentary of Mugabe as well that a dead elephant causes a food riot at the end of the video.
Go Daddy becomes Gone, Daddy, Gone
(with my sincere apologies to Gordon Gano)
I'm sure the Violents don't mind.
Hey, look, the Republican timeflow reversal policy has brought us all the way back to the era of Great White Hunters exploring the depths of Darkest Africa. Gooood times!
The whole Hemingway thing was so over after, oh, about July 2, 1961.
Hmm, you bring up an interesting idea of what he really ought to use that shotgun for.
My reaction to every Go Daddy commercial goes as follows:
"What the fuck are they trying to sell?
"Who knew Danica Patrick was such a whore?"
"Is this supposed to be turning me on? Because it's not, and my threshold is so low I've been known to become visibly aroused by sensuously-shaped landscapes. FAIL."
But hey, who doesn't love pandas talking like a 1920s Charlie Chan-style racist Chinese caricature?
Well, she's a shitty driver, so I guess whoredom just came naturally.
Truly the Kardashian of motorsports.
Clearly the elephant was a gay Socialist from Kenya.
The Kenyans seem to produce an awful lot of gay socialists for export…
Let's be honest if you needed this to see that GoDaddy was a bag of heavily salted rat's assholes you haven't been paying attention. I mean, really, ads that stick out among Super Bowl ads for being unusually sexist?
There are a LOT of people on the Internet all the time who don't watch football or broadcast teevee at all. I had heard about this guy's stupid blog and have registered new domains elsewhere for the past five years or so, but I just found out about the sexist sleazebag commercials today, along with the elephant killin'.
OK I can buy that, I did say you would have not to have been paying attention. Because those ads also get a fair amount of media coverage every year. If you don’t watch TV or follow media news you might well miss the annual folderol.
It's a risk I've been willing to take these past forty years or so.
Like me. I don't even bother with the Saints unless it's playoffs.
Hey, Bungalow Bill!
One of the saddest things I have seen lately was a CL Posting in the "For Sale" section of a tiny elephant carved from elephant tusks.
Oh, am I just a weenie greenie???
As far as I know, that would fall under illegal ivory trade, so don't sweat the greenie thing. CL is breaking the law.
What's wrong with sexy ads?
Oh! Sexist.
Sorry.
Thanks for that, Nigel.
Well there goes our plan to arm the Libyan rebels.
I use hover.com. It works pretty well and is easy to switch to.
Wow, that scene with the elephant butchery……I bet he really got off on seeing trickle down in action. Feed on my leavings, mere mortals.
What kind of asshole shoots and kills elephants? Really? How can these assholes be any more hateful?
Fucking chickenhawk mother fuckers. If he is such a bad ass capitalist with a taste for adventure why doesn't he do a tour in Afghanistan? Like Pat Tillman…oh wait, yeah, that didn't turn out so well.
It's times like this that make me want to remind America of the greatness exhibited by Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLouise, and Jerry Reed. Bob Parsons is truly the new Jackie Gleason.
What kind of gravy sucking pig would think it fun to kill an elephant? He also likes to shoot cheetahs but gave it up cause they took too long to track down.
Sadly, this will sell more domains with his types.
His types aren't exactly big with the typey-typey.
The GoDaddy hats on the starving villagers is a nice touch though. Is it true that Parsons had to suck Robert Mugabe's aids infested cock for this privilege?
"Fair or Foul?" Are you kidding me? IT'S CLEARLY FUCKING FOUL. This guy is a monster.
A coffee shop I frequent recently had a little blackboard quiz question that asked, "What is the dumbest domesticated animal." I wanted to say "people" but figured they wouldn't accept it. I wonder if bringing in this story will get me my 10 cents off after all.
can we make his stay in zimbabwe?
Another thing that burns me about idiots like this is that they're calling this shit a sport.
You can call it a sport when you go out in the wild buck naked and take down a wild animal with your bare hands. Don't forget the Bactine(TM)
I think a hand-made spear would be acceptable, also, but only if the beast charged you first or your tribe (Germans, Celts, etc.) was starving (not enough missionaries that month).
At least we finally figured out what Neilist has been up to.
Because elementary schools are socialist.
Five domains transferred.
Americans for Equal Justice will find Ken Lay without an elephant killers domain name services! Well, probably not, but still.
You know I'd seen those Hooter's type GoDaddy ads and had no fricken idea what the hell they were selling – until yesterday, when I watched this video on another site, and they mentioned he owned a domain place.
Bob Parsons, using your big gun to kill a big elephant tells me that you are a small minded man with a small teeny tiny penis.
The League of Extraordinary Douchebags.
Politically incorrect but factually true observation: at least since Teddy Roosevelt and the "conservation" movement, animals that are popular with sport hunters are protected more carefully than any others. Ducks, geese, elk, deer, bears, all are carefully conserved and the hunting of them rigorously regulated.
Bumper sticker seen on way to work today "Domestic Terrorism=Imported Canadian Wolves" uhmm what?
Huh. He's from Arizona, who'da thought?
From observing that grin on his face I'd say he just did something sexual to that elephant's corpse. Big-game hunting and necrophilia: a true man's world.
I'd like to register orwellwasright.com, please.
Regrettably, my three or four blogs are registered thru GodDamnedy, plus all my husband's stuff, and even the church website I provide (don't shoot, I'm a godless Librul Episcopalian).
I have to convince my husband that switching over is worth the trouble (all told, probably a dozen active and inactive domains).
Maybe feed him radioactive sushi and show him the video?
I've been following the Zimbabwe story for years, it's horrific.
If you need any help, I can walk you through it. Took me about 30 min, tops.

Or see below –>
And take that butterface Danica Patrick with you.
Henry Stanley on behalf of King Leopold II?
No wait, that was people in Africa.
Ok, I'd really like to do this. My blog is registered via GoDaddy through Google checkout. When I went to transfer it to NameCheap they say they need the EPP Code – no clue how to get that off GoDaddy as I don''t have a direct account with them, and it's hard to get tech support from Google. Anyone know a way to get that EPP?
Okay, so what you have to do is follow this:
http://reviewboss.com/finding-epp-code-on-godaddy...
basically, you unlock your domains (that's easy it is that little lock symbol), then you click this link (the one explained in the above link, called "send authorization code") that sends you an email (this can take a while, took about an hour for me to get mine). Then you take that EPP code and put it in the field at namecheap… then they say it takes another 24 hours to complete the transfer.
easy peasy. whatever the fuck that means.
Thanks KenLay, unfortunately that's where my problem is, I don't seem to have a direct GoDaddy account name or # (or if I do, I'm not aware of it) the registration was processed through Google checkout when I registered the blog. So when I go to the GoDaddy account page it's asking me for a Customer # or Login name – but I've never actually logged in with them. I'll try to get a live person at Google, although I won't hold my breath.
Yeah, that sounds like a wild goose chase. You'd have a better chance getting in touch with the ghost of Ronald Reagan.
Where did you buy it from exactly? From the goDaddy site and they rerouted you to pay through google checkout? Or from google and you never went to the goDaddy site at all?
through google apps?
Here – I found this: "If you have bought a goDaddy domain from google while signing up for Google Apps, you can find it under your login and password info at GA admin console –> Domain Settings –> Domain Name –> Advance DNS"
Yeah, I originally got it though Google (I guess they use GoDaddy as a back end sort of administrator?) But believe it or not, I think I actually got it done, although I had to jump through hoops. The CSR at GoDaddy was actually very helpful (and said she has gotten a few cancellations today when I told her why). I don't think could even recreate what I just did as she was talking me though the steps lol but I had to log into my Google Apps account, get the admin password, navigate through a bunch of trees on the Domain Manager, get the EPP emailed to me, go to ANOTHER company which keeps the domain locked (Domain by Proxy) get it unlocked. Then send the EPP to Namecheap. These elephants better appreciate what I went though
Thanks for your help in this KLIA!!!
A PSA – anyone who wants help can get in touch with me. information@ [my screen name] .org – Took me 20-30min. to do mine. I don't think it is a numbers thing. You can do multiple in about the same amount of time.
As Manhattan 123 notes, the hardest part is getting this EPP code. For that, you do the following.
Okay, so what you have to do is follow this: http://reviewboss.com/finding-epp-code-on-godaddy....
basically, go to GoElephantMurder and log in.
You go to your domains and unlock them (that's easy it is that little lock symbol – NOTE: I'm not sure if you HAVE to do this, but I did. Maybe skip it, in fact, see what happens).
then you click a link (the one explained in the above link, called "send authorization code") that sends you an email (this can take a while, took about an hour for me to get mine).
Then you take that EPP code you get sent and put it in the field at namecheap… then they say it takes another 24 hours to complete the transfer.
Fuck. I actually just finished. There is a whole another step if you have private domain registration thru GoDumboDeath's domainsbyproxy.
They don't shoot elephants, do they?
Damnit. My site deathwishcreeps.com is registered with godaddy. FUCK.
I'll help walk u through it if you need it.
Look at that big sad elephant eye.
One Charles Bronson fan to another.
Ah, it will eventually get done. Kind of like Wildey or a rocket launcher arriving in the mail. And I thought the African Big Game cartridge was for creeps, not actual elephants.
Go Daddy is the worst, use Web Gator, use 1and1 use anything but GoDaddy.
Newt Gingrich?
My father's web hosting service is donating a portion of their profits to savetheelephants.org, for people that transfer from godaddy or create a new account. If anyone's interested in switching/donating to the cause.

Non snark
I am so horrified I can't watch that stupidity. Anyone that is killing animals 'for fun' cannot be a person at all.
Dick Cheney?
Well, I tried to move my domain, whatever, but I couldn't figure out what they wanted at the Name Cheap site.
You want help? I'm happy to if you do.
Look at that big sad elephant eye.
I hate people like this. You know in previous lives, they were the ones cheering on the gladiator fights, burning the witches, lynching the Negroes–just truly despicable, despicable people.
One day this Bob Parsons fellow will be dead himself. Maybe via a painful, terrifying myocardial infarction, or perhaps from a long, drawn out battle with a horrific, rare form of untreatable, hideous, sanguineous ass cancer; but anyway!…my point is this: one day he will be dead and there will have been more humans mourning the loss of this elephant than of him. And this knowledge gives me some consolation.
Domain registrar changed to Namecheap.
Manhunt: Bob Parsons.
To the death.
It's not about that he hates elephants really. It's that he loves sorghum.
This story also conveniently illustrates the uniformly piss poor quality of that awful hydra known as "local news." Any [semi-]decent human being would be disgusted by Bobby's antics on multiple levels, but these slick shitted patronizing assholes dutifully turn it into a special interests "animal rights" story about PETA and leave it at that. I know most viewers couldn't tell you what a "Zimbabwe" did, or where you could stick a "Mugabe," so this nasty bit of sociopathy comes across as more whining from a bunch of liberal faggots or something.
I'm almost more pissed off at the ABC reporter's attempt to give a balanced story: On one hand, Bob Parsons is a trigger-happy, psychopathic thug. On the other, maybe there are too many elephants. I'm too stupid to fact-check this giant lie or even do a simple Google search, so I'd like to hear what you think!
Cecil Rhodes?
That piece of shit.
Why does a company that specializes in registering domain names have such a shitty domain name?
Scottsdale…why am I not surprised? Maricopa County's existence is based on the idea of man dominating nature and bending it to his will without any regard for the consequences. You'd have to be a real asshole to live there if you have both a choice and no compelling reason.
Awesome!

Hellz yeah. I even blogged about it on the aforementioned blog that gave me so much freaken trouble to switch, with a lil shout out to Wonkette, of course. (Of course it was the first time I posted something in 2 months
Blogging is dead, people – except for Wonkette, Gawker and Josh Marshall. http://www.toosaucy.com/
