Being unemployed means you have a lot of time on your hands trying to come up with ways to make money or at the very least find a new job. Charlie Sheen is trying to do both after committing career suicide and being dismissed of his duties from “Two and a Half Men.” According to reports, Sheen is actively trying to trademark 22 of his phrases he’s made famous in recent interviews about his scandalous life:
A company with ties to the actor has moved to trademark 22 of Sheen’s catchphrases, including “Duh, Winning,” “Vatican Assassin,” “Tiger Blood” and “Rock Star From Mars.”
Much like their creator, the applications aim high, with trademark protection sought for everything from bras, drinks, electronic games, candy [nose candy? -Ed.] and even gambling machines…
The company also seeks to trademark Sheen’s name and signature, and his nicknames for his home, “Sober Valley Lodge,” and his girlfriends, “Sheen’s Goddesses.” [AP]
Other phrases Sheen is attempting to trademark include:
Adonis DNA
I’m Not Bi-Polar, I’m Bi-Winning
Violent Torpedo of Truth
Defeat is Not an Option
If you ask me this is a pretty smart move and if anyone were to profit off these catchphrases it should be the Adonis DNA filled man that is Winning rather than some smuck on Cafepress. Yes, it’s the age old dilemma between concept verses execution.
