Weck’s playing checkers.

DGKALIS is playing 4-Dimensional chess.

Nah, Kalis is on that 6D Pai Gao type of shit.

Kalis and Stevie are playing cee-lo, while Weck's broke ass is sitting broke in a corner wishing he could afford a roll and bitching loudly about it.

I was hoping an IP lawyer would jump in here, because it's not my specialty, but in doing commercial litigation I come across it enough to be familiar. This is more just funny than anything. You can't trademark a name already in use within the same industry. So it won't affect Weck or whatever he wants to do with his brand. What he can do with it is legally use it in a different market, say gay anal lube, or mis-labeled supplements that are really tainted anabolic steroids or something like that, and Weck can't do anything about it.

Actually there's already a gay anal lubricant product that's been popular for years and years called "Joel "Weckingball" Morganweck's Gay Anal Lubricant". I think it would be easy to make a case that an average consumer would get confused by another gay anal lubricant similarly named.

I'm no marketing expert, but it seems like they should shorten that up a bit. Maybe "WeckLube" or "Joel's Slickbottom"

Yeah, the manny busters was cute, but he is a KOOK. Joel Morganweck should be banished, can't believe he was given as much attention as he got, bet he loves Trump too.

Wow! Hahahaha this is fantastic

This is bloody brilliant.....

Weck is a kook Rtard, I'm glad someone took his manhood especially his intellectual properties therein.

If I was to do something that was similar ie calling people out. The person in question would be in on it to have a goof.

My version would be  blurred faces of anonymity Like Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack narration HOLY ShIT!!! Mysteries of the Unknown Kookery, "who was this blatant offense?"  Have a random speaking on behalves of said offense. Faces hidden for their protection style. 

[n0torious]

As others said, you don't get a trademark only by applying, it also hinges on "actual use," so Kalis probably spent this cash for a troll, a fine investment nonetheless.

Yeah it's definitely an awkwardly named product, not unlike Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, but that's the name nonetheless.

For wecking ballz deep?
How's that work? I'm not a marketing guy

[City of Drunken Totems]

so its been a week or so, still a useless trademark right?

Kinda makes kalis seem corny for trying to even bother fueling the fire

[h00man]

Wecks gram on fire? All his Manny Buster's all deleted and will be relocated to YouTube.

[augustmoon]

this is probably all a planned troll to move to youtube to start monetizing.  would bet that kalis and stevie were in on it.

[CorneliusCardew]

Kalis' move kinda feels like snitching somehow... getting the authorities involved is not respected where I come from

[formula420]

Damn he says he has brain worms in a serious tone in his latest post. If that's a troll it's really fucked. If it's real that's terrible to happen to anyone.

It's fucking weck genius, has he ever been serious

He was on ig live talking about it I think it’s real

Brain Worms? Sounds like Weck hasn't been cooking that pork properly.

Didn't he go into some weird rant following saying that? I couldnt tell if he was serious or not

[morningcommute]

-Kalis puts in bid to block weck using or monetising the name. If successful I assume weck can’t advertise on cameo as weckingball?
- weck has content removed from insta under grounds of threatening or violent behaviour and loses his primary platform.

This could spell the end of weckingball. I can’t see his keeping his momentum if he ends up getting frozen out of social media for a while. I imagine whoever got him removed from insta will just Submit a complaint about his content on YouTube too.

He is still on Instagram just private

“I have a brain worm”
*recites Instagram policy on bullying and threats*

He probably got banned so many times for threatening people that zuckerberg made him publicly apologize to keep his account.

$5 cameos bout to get extended indefinitely!

He’s taken all but 5 or so posts down and the latest is some gibberish about breaking insta policy for threatening behaviour and says he’s gonna migrate all manny busters content over to YouTube.

[hip bruise]

So Kalis/Stevie reported Weck for bullying?
