A Farking NSFW Trademark?

I’ll give the folks over at Fark this much - they have a sense of humor. At least it seems to be more of a prank than anything else that they are trying to trademark “not safe for work”, or NSFW.

As the article notes, such a trademark is already pretty much unenforceable, and unlikely to be granted in any case.

And as noted by Drew on his blog:

About the NSFW Trademark Application, I can say three things:

1) Yes, we applied for it.

2) Can’t comment on the prank angle other than “stay tuned.”

3) Muhahaha.

Any time you do something that allows you to say “Muhahaha”, it has to be good.
