        Look at all that Midwest. Surely these tacos have to be cursed stains on the name. Especially from John. John ain’t know no tacos.

        So if I read the article correctly, they owned the trademark to “taco Tuesday” in States they didn’t even have stores in? “Intellectual property” is such a farce

            No, I understand how it works, nothing in your rambling justification is new to me. This one case is not the only reason why I think “intellectual property” is stupid. Just like with crypto weirdos, people who support “intellectual property” absolutely cannot fathom that someone knows how it works and doesn’t like it.

            Your explanation is interesting (and I learned a thing or two), but it fails to explain how such a term as Taco Tuesday could be considered a trademark in locations where the owner of the trademark is implanted.

        Oh wow, I had no idea there were two of them in my state, (but other side of it from the major cities) - I definitely first heard of it in relation to the copyright claim.
