“Christmas Pud”: damn. So, in England, “rubbers” are galoshes, “knocking someone up” is pounding on their door in the morning, and “garters” are men’s suspenders — and “Christmas pud” is a yuletide delicacy.
That tears it: Everybody in england must be gay.

Otherwise, you may very well have the Wal-Mart gestapo on your case.

I can’t blame KFC *much* for trademarking “Family Feast”. Heck, if the idiots at the Tradmark Office are willing to grant the trademark why not? It’s the fact that the Trademark office GRANTS THESE ASININE TRADEMARKS that is the real problem. If they granted trademark status to a specific logo that could be easily distinguished from normal text that contained the words “Family Feast” that would be one thing, but to grant trademark protection to THE PHRASE ITSELF is inexcusable. The Trademark Office is out of control, or under the control of big corps. Either way it needs to start using some common sense, if not perhaps a Lethal Injection(TM) is in order…
