Longtime I Love Television™ reader Rebecca Madison writes, "Dear Wm.™ Steven Humphrey: Why do you trademark your name? Are you afraid I'm going to steal it? Are you going to sue me for using your name in the opening of this letter? Can I trademark my name? Should I trademark my name? Help! Love, Rebecca."

The answer to all of those questions (except the first one) is a resounding "YES!" As for why I choose to trademark my name, it started waaaaaay back in the early '90s when McDonald's and other companies began trademarking not only their names and products—but also words and phrases they wanted associated with their products. For example, McDonald's "I'm lovin' it." That's trademarked, yo! And so is "How did you sleep last night?"(1800Mattress.com); "That's a good idea!" (Rubbermaid); "Funny you should ask." (Gale Group); "It's gonna be great!" (Great Clips); and "That's hot." (Paris Hilton).

Well, let me tell YOU something, America! If Paris Hilton is trademarking her shit, I'M not going to be the only a-hole everyone is stealing from! Especially YOU, "Rebecca Madison"—if that is indeed your name, and you didn't steal it from somebody!

Do YOU want to call yourself or your future unborn children William Steven Humphrey? FINE! Name 'em that all day long! BUT! If you call him/her "Wm.™ Steven Humphrey" I'll see you and your name-stealing, diaper-gravy-smelling brat in COURT! (Note: The trademark application for "diaper gravy" has been filed.)

Speaking of "branding oneself," the FX network is making significant (and confusing) brand shifts this week on TV! Now, as you surely know, FX stands for "Fox Extended"—as in, an extension of the Fox Network. However! This coming Monday, September 2, FX is spinning off a new network calling itself FXX (replacing the Fox Soccer network on your channel lineup; or find it by going to getfxx.com). How is FXX different from regular FX? Well, for one, it has an extra "X." Also it's harder to pronounce. For example, you pronounce FX as "Effects," right? So how do you pronounce FXX? Like... "Effexcessecks?" "F-ex-sucks"? "Eff-acck-accks"? I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE THAT!

According to the FXX execs (pronounced EX-EX), they're aiming programming toward the 18- to 34-year-old male demographic—or, as they're better known, "dumb jocks who still think burp and fart jokes are funny." That being said, there are gonna be some pretty good shows here. FXX is kicking off its debut with a Labor Day Parks and Recreation marathon, playing all day. (Naturally, you could have your marathon anytime by watching the series on Netflix... but it's well known that men who are 18-34 have nothing else to do on Labor Day except belch and fart.)

Also on tap? New episodes of the legitimately funny It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (debuting Wed Sept 4 at 10 pm) and The League (at 10:30 pm) as well as Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell (11 pm), which will now run five nights a week. Other than that? I assume a lot of belching™ and farting™—but... "We'll just have to wait and see!™"

Hope that answers your questions, Rebecca! "Have a great day!™"
