How to Create a Website and Piss Off Half of the US Population

Two Seattleites are offering a guaranteed spot in heaven for the low cost of $12.79. Their website, ReserveASpotInHeaven.com, also offers an all-access "VIP" reservation for the slightly more expensive price of $15.95. VIP access provides entrance to "The Land of Milk and Honey and Thug Mansion, where all the elite get together and kick it." The website also offers a group discount, if you make reservations for 10 or more people. All reservations come back with a money-back guarantee.

Website creators Nate Davis and Edgar Kim admit they created the site in hopes it would make them rich, but that's not happening. On the other-hand, they are getting hate mail regularly. Turns out, some folks are none too pleased at a gag website offering eternal salvation for a fee. Davis and Kim believe those folks should read the fine print. The websites disclaimer says:

This site was made to be humorous gag gift and should not be taken seriously. We in no way can guarantee someone entry into Heaven. In fact, we have never been to, nor are we affiliated with Heaven. It is all part of the story that goes along with our product so please don't take us seriously.

When searching through the site, it becomes increasingly apparent these kids have had to hire lawyers to write legal disclaimers about their product and the terms and conditions of its purchase, which just might be the funniest thing about the entire website. The next web business Edgar and Kim are creating? ReserveaSpotinHell.com, of course.
