why did i do this? now trademark? cant ask this question no more without yer permision? uncle buck ya got some splainin to do. come see me in the gayrage pronto.�

DAnon · Veteran Member

Any site actually using those terms? The first 2 are years out of date & the last just stupid.

But whatever turns his crank...

Eric Cartman · Control Freak

Maybe he will do the same for Lard Ass, Fatboy, TB2Gay, TB2KKK, Uncle Buck, and Chub.

chubbalishus · Veteran Member

cartman, thems terms of endeerment. cant put a price on love...�

data junkie · Veteran Member

He better raise enough to take on the attorneys of Prentice Hall Publishing if he thinks that he can impinge upon the copyright name of Yourdon's book.�

Or is this appeal an IQ test to gauge whether he has adequately preened his flock?

chubbalishus · Veteran Member

data junkie, i preen with mint gel. makes my hair smooth. makes uncle buck happy, calls me�his preen queen. biggrin

data junkie · Veteran Member

TB2Gay isn't listed. Alternative forums will continue to thrive.

Instead of the stated objective, what would be achieved is that any trademark registration could force search engines to purge their cache such that folks cannot gain access to documentation that DO does not want them to see.

It's solely an impingement on freedom of speech. Today's sheeple will pay for DO to potentially have more liberty to con future forum recruits.

data junkie · Veteran Member

LOL Chub; lucky for you that the bees are suffering colony collapse.

Kat · Senior Member

I think one of us should let Ed know....

Any volunteers? Wouldn't Lardass have a hissy fit if Ed contacted him about registering those terms.

Ed: Listen Uncle Buck...errr..... I mean Dennis, you can't register something that I have already copyrighted and coined.

Lardass: But Ed, it is only to stop the haters from using those terms. They hate meeeee....and they are showing all my followers what a complete idiot I am. I never posted as "Uncle Buck"....God's truth...

Ed: I think you are just setting the members up for more "donations" for another of your lardassian schemes. Enough is enough. STFU RTFN or else!

Lardass: Did I tell you, Ed, I love the azure blue of your eyes when you are mad....it gets me hot!

kat, i aint got hives no more. uncle buck bought me some medcation. im all better now. thanks.

Kat · Senior Member

I received this from an "Old timer" in a PM:

"I'd post this but would prefer to keep a lower profile for now...What bothers me about DO's threat to seek trademark protection of Timebomb2000, etc., is that those terms morally belong to Yourdon. I don't see where he says he at least made a courtesy contact of Yourdon to seek his blessing. DO must be getting way with it because so few remaining members go back to the Greenspun days.And of course amusing that the sheeple are so quick to think anyone would waste $300 a pop to steal those terms out from under him..."

What did I tell you? Fleataxi is talking fundraisers!

this might be a good fundraiser for TB2K. There are litterally hundreds of companies that can make coffee mugs, bumper stickers, tee shirts, etc. on demand/small quantities.

If you got orders from everyone, and marked them up 100% to cover your time/trouble, everyone would get some cool swag, and you could clear over $5 grand easy if enough people order.

Chubb......what can I say?

Do you write love poems to Uncle Buck by chance?

Yes but he would have to report the income and pay sales tax in the states that require it.

Cribbage tried to warn DO about the Prentiss Hall conflict and got labeled a troll immediately. Mein Fuhrer is NOT allowing anyne to question his wisdom.

And then he starts a poll that so flagrantly self serving it stinks worse than the manure pile out behind the pigpen.

Kat · Senior Member

The emporer has not worn clothes in a long time. But, anyone who points out that fact is trouble. I don't know what else it willl take for these morons to wake up and smell the flatulence coming from the south end of a north pointing Lardass.

Kat · Senior Member

This will turn into another opportunity to ban long time members.....mountains...molehills LOL

chubbalishus · Veteran Member

rolf · Veteran Member

He claimed he incorporated - now he's claiming that he needs to spend some more of other people's money to nail down some particular words/phrases.

It's just $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

HA!� Good luck slobber-bone.� I had a bunch of that crap made up to give my staff, just a little morale booster.� By the time it was all said and done, with the artwork transfer, load to the manufacturer database, applied to the product and shipped, it ended up costing me $13 to give them a $2 coffee mug.

What slack jawed glassy eyed drooling idiot would pay LardAss $25 for a coffee mug?� Oops, ofrgot who I was talking about there for a second... Never mind.

BTW, don't you have to actually be engaged in trade to register a trademark?� So WTF is DO selling, besides cult-flavored KoolAid?

WTF · Member

This is just so Paris Hilton (registering "that's hot"). Coca cola is registered internationally, yet we can still post pictures of coke, write the name coke, take pictures of an ice cold Coca Cola, discuss coke, have a drink, and a smile!
We just can't market a product under the names or slogans coke uses.

Plus the infringement has to be exact, Timebomb (y2k)(fulltopic) (two thounand)ect. are not infingement. only the exact 3 words, and only in marketing a product/service.

clayton bigsby · Member

Clear 5 grand on coffee mugs and t-shirts, me thinks not fatboy.

chubbalishus · Veteran Member

clayton, uncle bucks still workin on details. we might offer special doggie mug with paw print, prolly doggy pic. on both sides! what a deal. i might be verry buzy much now in the gayrage along with my other duties. hope my carpl tunnl symdrom dont kick in. damm.

April 2007 is the filing date for registering the trademark's for TB. This is just a recent BS ploy.

He incorporated months ago in Delaware because an ex-mod incorporated in Wisconsin under that name.....LOL

He incorporated last year. That's different from registering a trade or service mark.

He filed for a service mark - same as a trademark, but for services.
And BTW, his filing fees were $275 per term, not $300.

Welcome IGN!

Why does he have such a difficult time just telling the truth?

Thanks for welcome.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that he didn't use an attorney to file (so the extra bucks didn't go for that) or it would be listed on the application.

yep. uncle buck calls hisself uncle bucks when the paypal starts floodin his in box. sumtimes when a really big doller amount comes in, he sits back in his chair and laughs bwahahahahahaha!!! then he treats me to dairy queen bananasplit sometimes. yep, lifes good.

rolf · Veteran Member

Don't I remember him listing 'attorney fees' as one of the things that people got the honor of paying for sometime last year?

Eric Cartman · Control Freak

IIRC Fatboy stated during the last fundraiser that he took in enough "membership fees" that he had just enough to make it to the September Fundraiser. Where did he come up with the $900.00 for this latest development?

chubbalishus · Veteran Member

rolf, uncle buck told me everythings listed, everthins filed. all the fees. then sometimes uncle buck gets real nervus n mumbles what if they find out? what if they fin out? find out what? i ask. uncle buck mumbles google, google, goooogl. sorta spacy like. then i say dont fret nun uncle buck, use the secriet shell command. then uncle buck says dam google, damm google, dammm gooooogl!! thats when i hide out in the gayrage til uncle buck cools down.

He may have payed an attorney for filing as a corporation, but he didn't for the service mark.� Nor did he pay anyone for due diligence on searching the terms - a real company would normally do this.� If he had, he may have saved two-thirds of the filing fees plus expenses he'll incur trying to get these marks.

We already know Timebomb2000 is in question because of Yourdon's book, but nobody has mentioned yet (at least that I've seen) that there is already a website: www.tb2k.com that was started in 1999.

I'm thinking that maybe "Watching the world tick away" will be approved.

When was the last fundraiser? Wasn't it just a little over a month or so ago?

Eric Cartman · Control Freak

Yes it was but the point I was trying to make is that at some point before the September fundraiser he will be $900.00 short unless he took in more than he claimed.
