When you order a VPS they would’ve asked you then: “Do you want to supersize your order? For $1 extra you can have a whole bucket of RAM instead of a small cup of RAM”

This may be the first time I've actually wished HN had /. style moderation, so I could give you a +1 (Funny) vote.

Jokes are usually frowned upon here, but that's a good one. Have an upvote from me.

Imagine if Barnes and Noble had done it, and you could drive to one of their stores to quietly sip a drink and peruse the new machines they had provisioned recently.

There's an actual town called McCloud in California, next to Mt. Shasta.
