K.(often written JEFFK!!!!1 or similar) is a parody of teenage internet users, particularly script kiddies and online gamers. Claiming to be a "l33t hax0r" (translation: an elite hacker), JEFFK is known for his horrible spelling, joining words to create insults such as "clownboat" and "asshat," and bad web design skills. He has coined several phrases that have entered more widespread usage in other internet communities, most notably the phrase "teh sukc" (as in, "encyclopedias are teh sukc", used to express a dislike for encyclopedias).

Even though Viagra is only available by prescription from a doctor, it was advertised directly to consumers on TV (famously being endorsed by Bob Dole). Numerous sites on the Internet offer Viagra for sale after an "online consultation", a mere web questionnaire.

worked seamlessly across different computer platforms. On July 16, 1995, Bezos opened his site to the world, and told his 300 beta testers to spread the word. In 30 days, with no press, Amazon had sold books in all 50 states and 45 foreign countries. By September, it had sales of $20,000 a week. Bezos and his team continued improving the site, introducing such unheard-of features as one-click shopping, customer reviews, and e-mail order verification. The business grew faster than Bezos or anyone else had ever imagined. When the company went public in 1997, skeptics wondered if an Internet-based start-up bookseller could maintain its position once traditional retail heavyweights like Barnes and Noble or Borders entered the Internet picture. Two years later, the market value of shares in Amazon qwas greater
