Saw them being roasted all over twitter today, something about them trying to trademark reaction videos?

They are attempting to trademark the word "react" and monetize their common reaction video structure with a licensing revenue share, as if they own the idea of filming various demographics reacting to things.

It's as frivolous and silly as Sony's recent attempts to trademark "Let's Play" (despite the term's widespread public use for nearly a decade) and the brothers are rightly getting roasted for this.

A simple term like "react" shouldn't even be up for trademark in the first place. Hopefully the blow back from the Twittersphere and elsewhere will make these guys realize that they overreached. Weren't they supposed to have some kind of Kids React TV show? What became of that?

So my company has its own "social media" type site that employees can post on. Apparently some tables were moved and this one lady decided to go all Liam Neeson and post a strongly worded message about it, and predictably got roasted.

Saw that Bret "The Hitman" Heart says he has prostate cancer. I haven't watched wrestling in a long time, but growing up he was awesome.
