Fine Brothers File For Trademark On Word "React"

DewDude writes: You've probably seen them on YouTube: Fine Brothers are the two behind the video series Teens React, Kids React, and Elders React. Well, the two seem to feel they somehow invented this whole thing and have now filed for a very broad trademark. The USPTO filing says the trademark will be published tomorrow and looking at the filing; it is literally for the word "react" and simply shows a screenshot of their YouTube page. They have also apparently gotten approval for "Parents React," "Celebrities React," and "Parents React"; as well as filed applications for things such as "Do They Know It," "Lyric Breakdown," "People v. Technology," and "Try Not To Smile Or Laugh."

I've got an idea for trademark.

I'd like to trademark "fuck off and die", then use it liberally in these cases.

Badges?

...They said "Parents React" twice. I guess they really like parents reacting.

I thought the same thing but if you look closely the second version drops the trailing comma.

"Parents React," "Celebrities React," and "Parents React";
