Why the fuck is Ant's logo still a Guinness parody?
28 2016-01-16 by dankfranklin
It was cute for the initial roll out, but is he seriously building his brand around a beer parody?

Because Guinness hasn't sued yet. Only 634 people are subscribed. None of them have reported the copyright infringement.

It'd be funny if they jumped on the current anti-Anthony bandwagon and handed him another massive bill to pay.

They should partner and he could be their spokesman. A drunken woman beater is the perfect fit for an Irish beer.
9 McGowan9 2016-01-16
I thought the same thing the first time I saw it. How have they not sued him yet? Oh yeah, because no one has seen it.

I can't tell if you're joking or those are the actual numbersssssss.
1 TriangleDimes 2016-01-16
If those are the real numbers, Ant makes around $53,000 a year.
2 onemancrimespree 2016-01-16
Perhaps more than that, Triangle

It is considered parody/satire so he's protected legally. If he were to sell beer and used that logo then there could be issues.

This is not entirely true

This is completely wrong. Opie, confirm I'm right here.

Keep on thinking that, it's what keeps lawyers in business.

Because there isn't a single creative soul working there.

Ripped off guiness for his logo but drinks Bud Light like a sad old divorced guy.

You should. That overpriced clown piss is retarded.

But if you plan on drinking 15 of them its good

You could just drink 1 of something actually alcoholoc

I recommend a good Trappist product. Can't go wrong there.
-4 Pacinos_Wig-V4 2016-01-16
It's like $18 for a 30 pack and it's less shitty than the alternatives in the same price range. Plus I can get BL anywhere, I have to actually make an effort to get "good" beer.

The man hired his house boy former cop friend to produce his radio show. He has no fucking clue.

just be happy it isnt in goodfella's font
9 WiretapStudios 2016-01-16
Isn't that all of the AC networks logos though?
Anthony - Guiness
NY Crime Report - NY Post logo
Davey Mac - GI Joe Cobra head with Star Wars font underneath
Etc.
8 dankfranklin 2016-01-16
And it makes them look bush league. I wouldn't start a band and have my logo be a Pepsi parody, and have that on every one of my album covers.
6 WiretapStudios 2016-01-16
I'm a graphic designer, so you know I agree 100%. Carolla went out and had someone make his own logo and graphics immediately and set a brand. How can AC brand using another brands image? A merch T-Shirt would be fine, everyone does that. He lives in NYC, he could have had tons of people to pick from for a very small price. His logo / graphic are Oqie Radio bad.
6 BoardroomBimmy 2016-01-16
They ARE bush league. And that's all they ever will be. Its an irrelevant podcast network that maybe 1000 people give a shit about.
1 justbabbling 2016-01-16
What if you were making vaporwave?
1 cashan0va_007 2016-01-16
Its funny how some people call different color variations in graphics. By "vapor wave" do you mean gradient (when a color gradually fades into white or another color)? Or are you talking about something else? I'm in the print industry and I hear different types of descriptions of these things, and it's interesting to hear how they change based on where the person is from (west coast, east coast, etc..)
2 johnnyheyheyheynow 2016-01-16
Vaporwave is a music genre. Ripping off and altering other people's sound/imagery is the core concept behind it. It is kind of hard to explain, so you can just watch this video if you're interested.
Anyway, Ant should really give Keith the axe. The show and the network is stagnating and slowly dying because Keith doesn't know what the fuck he is doing. I understand that Anthony doesn't want to fire his long time friend who helped him start TACS. At this point we all know that Anthony tries to avoid conflict and would rather suffer in silence than create uncomfortable situations. He put up with The Titster's shit for 10+ years, for crying out loud! But it just stupid to trust the success of your only income creating business venture to an amateur like Keith. Get it together, Cumia!
Also, get a regular co-host or get a few of regular co-host on a rotation. Don't wait until October for Jim, cause he's probably not coming. Even if he is, then at this pace the show will be dead.
1 cashan0va_007 2016-01-16
Interesting, thank you for your reply. I never knew that type of music. I do like some atmospheric type sounding dubstep, but mostly listen to old school rap these days. I'll check out the video when I'm on my comp.
I agree witb your sentiments about ant, he has too many yes men feeding off of his fame and fortune, and as they say, when you feed a sucker or a leech, you only help them grow into a bigger leech. A bigger leech takes more food to sustain. Now, look at the monster leech he created with Dani Golightly, she is now in a position to potentially sue him (if he's convicted, if he doesn't settle out of court), and he promoted her lifestyle with tons of cash!
Although I like Norton, at this point, precious Yimmy would ostracize himself from all of his comic friends and opportunities if he came on board with ant. He would be the guy who took the side of the "exiled outcast shock jock" who is washed up. And we all know how Jimmy rides the fence and doesn't take sides....
As someone on this forum stated, the week after Anthony's arrest, he certainly started getting along with Tits a whole lot betta! Peckahs.
Thanks for your reply bud! I enjoyed it

No it totally makes sense for a brand that's a parody of bad listening.

Is this today's problem?
Edit: Yo, people, relax. I am making fun of Opie.

TAKE THE HIT.

See it was funny because Opie says that is th...ah fuck why am I explaining it. Bunch of haters anyways. --10 minutes later takes call from SNOWAYY in Michigan to say he got my joke and thought it was funny, as I act like I don't know why he called so I say thank you and say it was just dumb little joke I made that everyone cares about because people are weird and I have hater stalkers.

2 brianpeckahs 2016-01-16
If you were doing an Opie bit, why couldn't you just run with the "take the hit" Opie-esque criticism? Were you really so lacking confidence in your bit being clearly elucidated enough to register with a forum largely dedicated to bashing Opie's radio mannerisms? Are you really a fan of the WWE?

Sorry, sir/madam, I am not sure what your question really is.
And indeed a fan of the WWE, but not happy about the current product.

This, and also the fact hes running a studio/business out of a residential zoning area hopefully is some kind of violation.... i hope

Because he's a miserable alcoholic and doesn't want you to forget about it.

Seems like a nice parallel to his constant parroting of movie lines. Doesn't that get old too, by the way?

3 NashuaDan 2016-01-16
He could have paid some graphic designer on Fiverr like $50 to create an original logo but guessing he has no clue.
3 CertifiedBA 2016-01-16
He should parody this, fock yea
