Chick-fil-A’s spicy chicken > Wendy’s. And CFA’s spicy chicken biscuit with some honey drizzled on it is pure freaking heaven. Why do they only serve it at breakfast?

Yeah, but just because someone else is using it doesn’t mean you can’t get a federal trademark registration for it. However, it does mean that you can’t enforce your registration against the people who were using it before you, and it might mean you can’t operate your business in the same area as the people who were…

I was responding to a post that said nobody else uses it. It’s not surprising to me that a lot of other people would have used Aloha. I don’t think they claim (or could ever claim) that Poke is part of their trademark.

I live in the Chicago area, and the hot dog place a block from my house has Pepper & Egg sandwiches 365 days a year.  Most places don’t.  

Uh.... that’s how trademarks work.  You pick a name nobody else uses, and then you use that name, and your trademark protects you against other people using that name if it is confusing to consumers.

Yep.

Mike Pence will never be impeached unless there is some new information that comes out. The idea that there’s even remotely anything to impeach him on is flat out absurd. More absurd even than the hordes of far right wingers who wanted to impeach Obama. At least Obama had some minor scandals tied to his name, and if a…

Exactly. Any lawyer willing to work for Trump would have known that anything they wrote down was potential future evidence. Good lawyers write stuff down to make sure there’s evidence that they aren’t doing shady shit. Trump’s lawyers probably didn’t write stuff down because they knew that they WOULD be doing shady…

See, that’s where you’re wrong. This hate that the far left has for centrists is misplaced and unproductive (not to mention just downright shitty). Centrists are often people who can be courted and convinced, and who might actually listen to a message from the left and vote for your candidate. The attempts from the…

Yeah, I have thought about that too.  I’m pretty sure most/all of the people down there (Ned Stark included) are just bones by now, but it’s a possibility.

I’m not doing it to demonize or dismiss your views. It’s an accurate characterization - people like Bernie Sanders, AOC, and others who hold similar views are farther left than most people. They are as far left as most reasonable Americans go (on economic issues at least). I don’t even consider “far left” to be a…

I’m not really sure why anyone has a problem with this. I want to see him found guilty as much as anyone, but if he has an argument that the Florida Constitution violates the US Constitution, why shouldn’t he challenge it?  I hope he loses, but I have no problem with him trying.

I mean, he can concede he got the HJ and claim he’s innocent because he didn’t pay for it.

Well first, nobody the Democrats run is going to be “just like” Trump. Not even close, in fact.

Yeah, if this was started by Islamists, somebody would have taken credit by now.  That’s how it works.  What’s the point of terrorism if nobody knows it’s terrorism?

Bell’s HopSlam is probably the most famous craft honey beer. I don’t know how much honey they use, and the beer itself doesn’t taste like honey. It is rightfully one of the classics of the craft beer world though, and I don’t think I’ve ever had a 10% double IPA that drank so easily.

You view Biden as a weak candidate, but I don’t think he is - not in general election terms. I think almost every one of the people who find Biden to be a distasteful candidate would still vote for him in the general over Trump. The danger Democrats face is not disappointing their base. It’s bowing to their base and…

They didn’t drown, and they didn’t freeze. They were in a moderate-temperature garage under a heat lamp that was previously used for chicks (we lived on a farm).

The investigation would be pointless once she quit. It’s a misconduct investigation. Jail time or other criminal punishment was not on the table. There was no criminal investigation because, as the article said, the statute of limitations passed already.

No, I understand that. The issue is choosing someone to put in the general who is going to beat Trump. It may seem like “literally anybody” would fit that description, but it felt like that in 2016, and look what happened.
