Numbers for the week in class 025: This week, there were 566 freshly registered text trademarks; 277 fully cancelled text marks; and a mere 22 applications were abandoned before reaching the finish line.
Note: The marks in part 1 are now fully registered and active! This list is compiled from the USPTO Trademark Search system. Some of these are legitimate brand names! I’ve included them on this list because those brand names are also words or phrases that may be used on the goods in question by crafters and makers.
PART 1: NEW REGISTRATIONS (PRINCIPAL REGISTER)
| 98976198 | ‘NUFF SAID | |
| 98359098 | 6 FEET THANKS | Specimen has it on the back of a cycling jersey, indicating that car drivers need to give ample room when passing. |
| 98177500 | BITCH | After 2 years, they made it to registration. Owner is a Miami restaurant called Bacon Bitch. |
| 98372937 | BOUJEE LIFE | Torn on whether to put this under “X Life” or “Bougie” on the spreadsheet. |
| 98279096 | CLUB OFFICIAL | Is it just me, or does the tag in this specimen look ironed on? |
| 98349917 | CLUB OFFICIALS | |
| 99126204 | CORPORATE PUPPET | I’ve felt like this in far too many past jobs. |
| 99153447 | FREE SIZE | Isn’t this another term for “one size fits all”? How do these things get registered?! |

| 99149999 | GUN HUGGER | An image of a tree with a gun as its trunk? Baffling. Is this some sort of diss against environmentalists? Also, love the use of that ® in the specimen. |

| 98526503 | IT’S TIME TO SAVE THE F**KING OCEAN | I suspect it’s too late, and even if we did a complete 180 right now, it wouldn’t be enough. Sorry to be a downer. |

| 99103834 | NAMASLAY | Kind of surprised that this one breezed through the process. |
| 98865615 | SUNDAY RITUAL | We all have our Sunday rituals. Like going through new trademark applications, everyone does that. Right? |
| 90736209 | WHAT WOULD DOLLY DO? | Owner: Dolly Parton! |
PART 1-B: NEW REGISTRATIONS (SUPPLEMENTAL REGISTER)
| 99210691 | BALLER GANG | Yep, “baller” is still all about the testicles to me. |
| 99046330 | SMALLBOY | Merely descriptive: “evidence shows that clothing companies commonly use both a size designator, such as “SMALL” and a gender designator, such as “BOY” to indicate features related to sizing for their clothing.” |
| 98855182 | VALLEY GHOULS | This one’s a case study in why you hire an attorney to file for you. |
PART 2: CANCELLED MARKS

[sic] = A spelling, spacing, grammar, or punctuation error is part of the mark, not a typo from my butterfingers.
[removed from spreadsheet] = The cancelled item had been on my spreadsheet of marks, and has now been removed.

As always, the new marks have been added to my ginormous spreadsheet; please check it out for a shockingly large list of registered trademarks!
