Even though there's dozens of different ROFLcopter shirts for sale online, Chuck had to get someone else to design one for him cause he doesn't know how to make one himself.

Uh... Dude, you are a massive pussy. Lose the hat, the bandana, the aviator glasses, and the douchebaggy attitude. CT actually owns that shirt. And no property is stolen when the design gets "tweaked". Why? Because its a new design, a new "idea", I work in graphic art, Ive got ACA Certs. I know what I'm talking about bro. You are a jackass with nothing better to do than bitch and moan. As The Pirate Bay so well puts it, Go sodomize yourself with a baton.

@pbguru101 You must have gone to a shitty school because you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Go back to sucking Chuck's dick, you're much better at doing that.

Do a quick Google Images search for "Virginia is for Lovers", the shirt SPoT is basing theirs off of. Based off what you said, SPoT is ripping off David N. Martin and George Woltz of Martin and Woltz Inc, the Virginia based company who came up with the original slogan, as well as Virginia Tourism Corp who own the trademark. I can assume with fair reason that SPoT did not seek permission from either company prior to making their shirts. OMG! So that would mean that they're scam artists OH NOES!!!

Furthermore, If you look at the SPoT website, you will notice that they no longer sell the shirts in question, thus, not making a profit. You even went so far as to point the year long delay between the CT shirts and the SPoT shirts. There isn't a copyright anywhere on that shirt (unless you consider the hearts) and even then, they changed the design for the CT shirts. Last time I checked, type arrangement cannot be copyrighted. Fonts can, but only by the creator of the actual font.
