Wal-ocausty Lawsuit?
Walmart is apparently suing a website for selling t-shirts with the logo WAL*OCAUST and a smiley face on it, claiming that the image is a warped version of their own.
The website owner's opinion, however, is that this is a matter of free speech.
The guy states he's made a total of $5.10 off the t-shirt sales.
Woo hoo, Walmart. Feel like a tough guy now? Tryin' to take down a site worth 5 bucks.
Whatever.
Quite frankly, I don't see the resemblance, and even if I did, I don't see what's wrong with it.
What? Does Walmart own the rights to the "Wal" or to the smiley face symbol?
If so, yahoo'd better watch out with their smileys or they could be next for frick sakes.
Personally, I don't even find the t-shirt logo amusing to bother freaking out about it like Walmart did. What the genocide of human life has to do with low prices is beyond me.
Even the site's explanation sounds retarded to me, so whatever.
Here's the site: www.walocaust.com.
And, on to more amusing Walmart fun, check out Tramp's Riverbank for some really excellent things to do when you're bored at Walmart.
One of my favourites: "Dart around the store suspiciously loudly humming the "Mission Impossible" theme," but they're all good, so really, I can't decide.
