Dude, Quit It...


Seems like 2009 is the year of "One For The Other Thumb."

And unfortunately, I don't mean this blog, but rather everybody else lining their pockets using it's namesake.

The latest rip-off job comes courtesy of a bunch of amateurs calling themselves, Shalgo Industries, LLC. As you can see, I'm blatantly not linking to these clowns, so y'all can't go buy the bootleg, schwag Super Bowl shirts they're selling. Mark my words, if you buy anything from this company, you're banned from this blog. Seriously. And don't even make the "too late, I already did" joke. It will not go over well.

Hey, assbags at Shalgo, Industries, LLC - I don't really mind you marketing your shit to people using my blog's name. I mind slightly more that you're marketing it to them on Facebook. I mind a whole lot that you're marketing it to ME on MY OWN profile.

And you know that's my profile, because you can see that my Mom gave me a Valentine's Day gift, there. Yeah, my Mom gave me a Valentine on Facebook. Jokes on you, so did yours!

Burn.

Oh and Shalgo - Kindly pull the plug, like, yesterday. It is not appreciated.

Obligatory Footer - If you haven't already, become a fan of OFTOT on Facebook, join the blog network and follow me on Twitter. Or don't. Your choice, really.

Listen Up, Rich Eisen...

YO! Rich Eisen! What's up, buddy?

I heard you were coining a potential Steelers Super Bowl victory, "One for the Other Thumb." I bet you think you're real damn clever, don't you? I'm sure you're very pleased with yourself, Mr. NFL Network anchor.

But guess what, asshole? I've been One For The Other Thumb since November 2006! That's right! My intellectual property, that name is. Which reminds me - you're infringing on my Trademark there, hoss. It may not be registered, but you know what? That's never stopped anyone before. Expect a call from my lawyer. Err...me, that is (never mind the fact that neither of us are using it commercially).

Unless you'd just prefer to give me credit. In which case, while I still disagree that a win would be "One for the Other Thumb," if it means a tidal wave of traffic for me, I'm cool with that.

QFA, Eisen. And next time you decide to "coin" a phrase, do your homework (or at least have some insignificant P.A. do it for you).
