Sheen Winning TMs

Charlie Sheen has registered trademarks for no fewer than 22 of his catchphrases, including "Duh, Winning," "Vatican Assassin," "Tiger Blood" and "Rock Star From Mars," reports the Associated Press, saying videogames are one of the possible applications for the TMs. Thanks GameSpot.

Yeah, we don't cotton much to book learnin' and other such high falutin' idears in these parts.

Best just stick to book burnin' just like Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson did!

Back on topic - we need to just ignore Sheen and he'll go away. (Yes, I see the irony in this statement hot on the heels of feeding a troll...but I sort of thrive on irony.)

There mere fact that you can trademark a catchphrase consisting of TWO fucking common-use words shows how utterly fucking worthless the entire trademark system is.

let's just fire all the assholes that work for the trademark division and use their salary to hire more teachers. That'd be a 100% net improvement right there.

Unbe-fucking-lievable.

RollinThundr Apr 17, 2013, 12:25: Eh really tossing stuff like that in there only to get your panties all bunched up. If you really want to call that trolling sure.

Mr. Tact Apr 17, 2013, 12:33: Pretty sure that's the definition of trolling...

He used to be a decent actor, I'll go as far as I actually enjoyed his TV show, but it looks like he picked up the dickhead attitude from the TV show and he runs with it in real life.

I think he's gone way too far this time and it's sad to see what he has become. I didn't think he would sink this low but he did. He really didn't have to do that to be successful imo.

He's been in a lot of movies over the years, some of them fairly decent.

Just to be clear, guys, he has only APPLIED for these trademarks, not received them. That entire article is meaningless speculation as to what *could* be done with trademarked catch phrases.

Who gives a shit? The fact that these phrases are associated with him means I'll never want to use them anyway, except for purposes of making fun of him, which I'm sure is covered by fair use.

And how many "average guys" are registering 22 catchphrases?

So it's the 'cool' thing now to judge people who are famous or make more money then us?

At the end of the day Charlie Sheen just gets more attention then the average guy doing the exact same thing because Hollywood/News sells drama.

Two words Creston - App Store. The trademark system is fucking stupid. Hilariously it's matched and even bested by the patent system.
