Fark trying to trademark ‘not safe for work’
Cory Bergman December 9th, 2007
Also known as NSFW. Fark has filed with the US Patent and Trademark Office for exclusive rights to use the phrase online. (No joke.)
Update: As Steve Safran suggests in comments, perhaps Lost Remote should trademark Viewsers™.

This will go over poorly with Lost Remote Viewsers ™.

Why not? Safran already shut down CompUSA singlehandedly.

Sounds as bad as trying to trademark for “One Click.” By the way, does Bon Jovi own the trademark to “Slippery When Wet?”

We should also trademark Very Bad Ideas.

Have I mentioned lately how much I hate Fark?
Ugh.
