It's not a patent.It's obvious the patent is for printing pi on t-shirts as a logo, which is reasonable.

...How? It's a mathematical symbol, for god's sake.
To be fair, if you don't have some sort of trademark system it would be chaos. And if you didn't allow symbols or basic words, all companies would have weird logos and be named "zazzle".
So if I trademark the letter "A" for t-shirts as a logo, can no one else use the letter A in t-shirts as well?
A stylized A, sure.

The problem is that this artist is claiming to trademark all representations of pi. I can understand if he was trying to trademark a unique, stylized logo, but Zazzle literally removed all traces of clothing containing the mathematical symbol, regardless of how it was styled.
Irrational.
There's always going to be a lot of assholes ready to abuse the system, it's the system that should be better.
Why not both?
Oil wrestling?I wonder, did the Phelps patent "I Hate Fags?" If not someone should do it and sell little IHF keychains and hats Then you could demand the Phelps pay you royalties each time they used your slogan and you could donate the proceeds to the gayest cause you could find.
That would be the dream wouldn't it? But people aren't going to stop being assholes, the system however could be fixed.
Right, I realize the importance of fixing the system. But I see no reason to condone poor behavior simply because "well hey, the system is faulty!" I also don't see a reason to absolve the person of any blame.
I'm going to copyright the Englinsh language so if you use Englinsh, stop.
I'll need to trademark the @ symbol. All that email and keyboard money!!
