Title: Trademarked. =\
Post by: strawb3rryfi3ldsfor3ver on March 31, 2005, 01:24:47 AM

Aaaaaall righty. I got a pair of John Lennon Converse in the mail today. <33333

I've seen this before, but looking at this description thing inside the box, I read --

Copyright Yoko Ono Lennon. Liscenced exclusively through Bag One Arts, Inc. John Lennon is a trademark of Yoko Ono Lennon.[/u]

Anyone else find that a bit . . . unnerving? Money is...eh, pretty cool, but reading "Someone is a trademark of Someone Else..." is just...wow. Trippy.

That's rather strange, but somebody has to get the money.

You know what, things like this just don't surprise me any more. It's just Yoko trying to make money off of John's name, as usual.

^that's a hard one, but seeing as all my other candidates are dead, it will have to be Yoko.

Good point. But still -- it's all over almost everything Lennon, doesn't Yoko have enough money as it is? :\
