EFF Moves To Nix Trademark On "Gaymer"
netbuzz writes "Spurred by the mark holder's cease and desist letter to Reddit's subreddit r/gaymer, the Electronic Frontier Foundation today officially petitioned the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to rescind its grant of a trademark registration on the word "gaymer". 'This registration should never have been granted,' said EFF Intellectual Property Director Corynne McSherry. 'Gaymer is a common term that refers to members of this vibrant gaming community, and we are happy to help them fight back and make sure the term goes back to the public domain where it belongs.'"
don't worry, buddy. lots of people are confused and struggle with their identity. no one will judge you. just be yourself and everything will be o.k.
Lingo faux paux are just as bad as fashion faux paux after all! Sometimes even worse!

How do you call gamers that love cheese? There must be a word for that.
The French.
An appropriate moment from the Simpsons:
"We're here! We're queer! Get used to it!"
Lisa: "We are used to it. You do this every year."
systemd is Roko's Basilisk.
For the french impaired: faux paux means false pricks.
That's why I game as a gay player. It's so fun to detect the noobie "you're a faggot!!!@#$!@#$" little boys and headshot them for their trouble.
A better question would be what's the difference between you and a pathetic dog molester. The answer is of course none. There is no difference between you and a pathetic dog molester. Because you are a pathetic dog molester. Which is why you demand dog molestation in the games you play. I'm going to go and trade mark 'dogmolestermer' to describe people like yourself.
Oh come on, now. It was just that one time, it was consensual, and the bitch said she was older than two!
And you, sir are a bigot.
Or a homogot.

Of course getting the Preperation-H trademark for your delectable fruit jams and jellies might not be the best idea even if you would be instantly recognizable.

Or just demand gay sex in the games they play?
They're still upset about the gender bias in Leisure Suit Larry.
My God, it's Full of Source!
