Re: T-Mobile's parent Deutsche Telekom trademarks the color magenta
Quote:How in the hell can you trademark a "color"? It probably wasn't easy (but I'm sure DT's billions helped). We had to fight to get a trademark with 2 generic words (tulips, bears...3 generics if you count and) approved. The trademark is only for the EU so Sneaky is safe unless she travels. Petition to reclaim Magenta: http://www.stijlfigurant.nl/magenta/ comment on petition Wrote:My balls are magenta. My balls have a good lawyer 
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"
"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site. best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011 |
