Louis Vuitton Whores: Trademark doucheBAGgery.
Sorry for the crude nature of the title, but when the shoe fits...
Some time ago, Pillsbury filed trademark infringement proceedings against a local company named "My Dough Girl."

She even chose Responsible rather than Victim and declined to support web pages that vilified Pillsbury, hoping to avoid any further entanglements. And, I wish her much success.
All that, however, does not change the fact that the people at Pillsbury are douchebags for pursuing such a baseless action - and I will assiduously avoid the purchase of their products, worlds without end, if I can at all help it.
