The Interpreter Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Popsicle is a registered trademark of the Unilever Group of Companies. As such, it is always capitalized. http://m.popsicle.com/article/detail/107647/all-about-popsicle-sicle-trademark-family Apparently, the company is very worried about losing its trademark to genericization. This is one of the more detailed advisories/warnings I have seen. I have never heard anyone refer to Popsycle type confections as "pops." I suspect this is not the wisest of Unilever decisions. Protect the mark or watch the courts Wisk it away, with the Sun. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB1 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 You have long exciting discussions with friends about Doctor Who. Sorry, BB1, who is a Doctor Who enthusiast, who will speak of this subject all day if applicable, right now I am discussing this magical dust that has just occurred. Also, please abide by the TOS, which states not to make a "one word post" applicable to this, as a "one word" by the gif, please add some sort of diction with some sort of syntax to this statement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Not to mention a picture paints more than a thousand words. I've been here a very long time, both on KIC and on this earth. Never have I heard an image here must be accompanied by words. What Nick_Plummer did was brilliant. Each user can in his or her own mind paint their own words. To require the user to add words to a meme or image is ridiculous. It would actually restrict thought and discussion rather than add to it. Besides, were that the requirement, which it is not, virtually the entire Random Photos thread would be in violation. It isn't. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIfan73 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I've posted this before, but here's a no-frill video of a visit I made in 2011. It's pretty much a whole day condensed into 3 minutes. I just watched it again today. Hopefully it can help someone's off-season blues just a bit! 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 It wasn't. I know it wasn't as Mr. Carl Lindner told me himself that it wasn't. And no connection between Phantom Theater and Phantom of the Opera. Nor Houdelini and Houdini. Coincidences. Nothing more. Carl Lindner said so. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Coastermania Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 The video lifted my spirits. Sad that Son of Beast is gone, but progress comes at a price.

homestar92 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 They say not to lie to young'uns about the experiences of Roller Coasters in case they develop a phobia from it, but I will admit to having done that one time, with regards to the Indiana Jones/Adventure Express "coincidence". In order to entice my then seven-year-old nephew to ride Adventure Express, I told him it was an Indiana Jones ride (Raiders of the Lost Ark is his favorite movie). The queue music and the skeleton in a fedora just before the first lift hill aided me greatly in my deception. And he rode it and loved it. Still can't quite get him on Racer, but he's now ridden Backlot, Woodstock Express, and Adventure Express, as well as both coasters at Stricker's Grove. I'm hoping that this season I can convince him that Racer is only a little bit scarier than Tornado. Of course, in the eyes of a child, perhaps the difference is much bigger than it seems to an enthusiast. Admittedly, 55 feet to 88 feet is quite a leap in height. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
