Scheetz Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 thats too funny someone would do that. Do they not realize how stupid of an idea that was? Anyone with their own business should damn well know about copyright laws and all the other bullshit that goes with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyGuy Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I think like most of their products, you need to call them. Every person that I know that has ordered from Smiley says that it goes very smoothly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pengilum282 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I think you would be better of actually continuing the idea to parody the guy who did it, making money of his idea, sell them as a limited supply collectors edition, never again to be produced super rare (did i mention rare) collection piece. Then rub it in the guys face. Heck, you know your doing good when your selling products that say fuck yourself, and your making money. And people ARE BUYING THEM!

sicklecow Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Good luck buddy. Be sure to keep us completely up-to-date on the happenings. To be honest, I'd probably keep the "Fuck" on there if I got a bowl, not because I have any bad feelings toward Smiley (from all I've read he's a great guy), but because it would be a great conversation piece. Spread the word of Smiley's judicial victory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz'd Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 why would someone do this to poor smiley, he sounds like a good guy...if there are any of the evil anti-smiley bowls left around, i would feel honored to take them off the streets, except i live in damn canada..grrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkenWizard Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 QUOTE (mushrat @ Jan 14 2007, 07:09 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I slightly altered the title of the post so it wouldn't look like an attack on Smiley or his stuff by a member of the forum. Which is what I thought it was when I first saw it, thought someone was about to take a short vacation. That's funny. I was jokingly saying someone was going to take it the wrong way and I was going to see a "DrunkenWizard takes a vacation" thread. I just figured the thread would get more views with the original title. Don't worry, you won't ever have to ban me Mushy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shavo989 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 (edited) How could someone not like him, his name's Smiley for fuck's sake! Good luck with all the legal stuff, Smiley.QUOTE DrunkenWizard takes a vacationHaha, I was expecting someone to blow that out of proportion, too. Now the thread has had quite the turnout.

Evil_Spork Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 id love to get one of the fuck smiley bowls!ive always thought they were an interesting idea and it would make a great conversation piece.and i love the irony of having a smiley bowl that is insulting him on it lol, kinda like the surf shop stickers that say "surfing sucks, dont try it" also ill be getting a small phunnel screen if/when they are out!

Scalliwag Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Call it the Tourette's Smiley bowl! Ooooohh, how about "personalized Smiley bowls"? That would be cool.... have one say "F*CK SCALLI!" Now that would be a conversation piece! But really, if you could get names, etc. on them that would be pretty neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
