How the HECK do you "trademark" words that were already in existence?? She didn't make up the words... I'm sick of seeing/hearing about her. And Britney. And Lindsay.

It's the phrase that's trademarked, not the words.

That's what I am saying. How ridiculous is it, though? I mean, seriously. That's stupid.

EDIT: When are we going to see a picture of Dina??

What the fuck does that mean? What does bigger and more complex have to do with more violent? I thought Einstein was supposed to be smart.

I'm going to go ahead and assume he's referring to a war-type situation.

Then the words "Keith and the Girl" are not able to be copyrighted or trademarked in your world and there could be 20 things with the same name. That is what's stupid, not reality.

I guess I see your point. It's just those 2 words - That's hot - (or 3 w/o the contraction) It just seems silly.

the trademark only applies in context they're used in.

Which is why this usage is covered under the Parody act.
