Michael McDermott, an attorney who was unsuccessful in his attempt to overturn a 2006 U.S. Patent Office decision allowing everyone’s favorite decades-old organization of motorcycle-loving lesbians to trademark the name “Dykes on Bikes,” was slapped down by the Supreme Court Monday when they denied review of his appeal without comment.
McDermott originally argued that the phrase Dykes on Bikes was “disparaging to men” and “scandalous and immoral.” Having tried unsuccessfully for a good ten minutes to devise a Shangri-Las or John Travolta/Wild Hogs joke, I’ll now acknowledge that I have nothing to add to this story and was just itching to post that photo.
