El Gallinero Gros posted:Good example, there was some ex producer who claimed Guy was homophobic I'm not a Guy Fieri fan or defender but he was cleared of all charges by idk officiating his sisters super gay wedding. The claim was that he had to be notified in advance if any restaurateurs were gay because he found them upsetting. But he got over it and is not that bad of a person. I really don't like or mostly trust huffpo they are liberal trash but a source https://www.huffpost.com/entry/guy-fieri-homophobia_n_1020736 because I put myself at the top of the page.

I could be horribly optimistic here but I always read that as someone who was undertrained, underpaid and untraceable so the freight company of the truck wouldn’t have to pay out for the accident (“it’s not our employee, it’s a contractor”) and the bits about the cellphone and brownie are so that the freight company owning the train wouldn’t have to pay the survivors.

Why do they say convert and not transform

BAGS FLY AT NOON posted:Why do they say convert and not transform I was going to answer this question with my assumption that converting is somehow slightly mechanically different to transforming (a thing that already exists in MTG) and so they had to come up with a new name. However, I wasn't sure so I looked it up. https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Convert quote:It is exactly the same as Transform. Huh? quote:"Convert" is the term used by Hasbro on the packaging and in the manuals for the Transformers franchise.[2][3] They do this to avoid genericizing the term Transformer and transform, and thus to protect their trademark.

BAGS FLY AT NOON posted:Why do they say convert and not transform This is really stupid but because of trademark law, Hasbro does not allow any fiction, packaging copy, advertising copy, or tie-in products to use the verb "transform" under any circumstances. Transformers convert, scan alt-modes, and change shape, but do not transform. If Transformers transformed, the brand name would become descriptive and Hasbro would risk losing it as a trademark. Optimus no longer says "transform and roll out". A comics writer had to fight to get the phrase "transformed himself to death" cleared in the 2010s and probably wouldn't get cleared for it today.

I would love to see them play that out in court - a word doesn’t just stop existing because your company stops using it. “Transformers” is extremely descriptive.

I assume it was some sort of cross-promo deal or else they probably couldn't have used the character at all right? Is it one of those things where you HAVE TO PROTECT THE HOLY TRADEMARK ABOVE ALL

Both transformers and magic the gathering are owned by hasbro because capitalism etc etc They're releasing promo transformer cards in the upcoming set that's based around a war between two brothers who build lots of giant robots to fight said war. It fits thematically, you see They've released a few transformer promos for SDCC before and those also said convert, because of hasbro's mandate

Funny thing is that Hasbro actually has collaborated with another company- the Lego Optimus Prime that just came out, which is even designed to, ahem, convert without needing to be taken apart. The description even basically says 'Yes, this is a collaboration between two directly competing companies, because it was just that fun an idea'.
