We're most definitely DOOMED! This is ridiculous.
Does this mean I have to stop wearing my Birkenstock Arizonas?
Serves 'em right for not trademarking 'Arizona' and suing the hell out of the state (and if there were legal issues with this they'd just need to oil some judicial wheels). Maybe next time they'll get their shit together.
Word verification: ouser. Is this pronounced ow-ser or oo-ser?
Glaucon:
Yes. You must stop wearing your Arizonas.
(But the immigration law has nothing to do with it.)
It looks like at least one kind of DOOM has been averted....
