Bad Mark
Facebookâ„¢ is trying to register the word "Face" as a trademark. Even Stalin, in his most revisionist excesses, never went as far as to restrict the usage of a common word. If Mark Zuckerberg does get his way, will we have to come up with a different word for that most basic human feature to avoid paying a license? Or will the word "face" have to have to be updated with a â„¢ symbol every time is is written? Will The Beatles I've Just Seen a Face become I've Just Seen a Faceâ„¢? Will hockey games have "Faceâ„¢-offs?"
I think I'll try to trademark the word "anus." I'll then be able to redefine it and use it as I see fit:
ANUSâ„¢
