My mann... Welcome Scoop.
How you doing Ned... I need to talk to you.
(To partygoers) Come on everybody get out... (To Scoop) Sit my brother. Guess you want to hear more about my Guitar playing? I'm gonna explain it to you... Do you want some of this?
No.. no.. no... I'm alright. That's not what I came here for Ned.... Yes everybody's good Ned... Everybody is happy... Except you.
I'm happy Scoop.
You happy? Really? Well maybe I'm the one with the problem. I got a problem because I don't understand, why you got to take something that's perfectly good... and mess it up. You see brand name. Brand names, mean something. Do you understand?
(To party goers making noise) Shut the fuck up! (To Scoop) Go ahead Scoop, I'm sorry about that bullshit.
STEEM. That's a brand name. Like Pepsi. That's a brand name. I stand behind it. I guarantee it. They know that even if they don't know me anymore than they know the chairman of General Mills.
What the fuck are you talking about Scoop?
What I'm talking about is... when you chop up STEEM and it's potential holders... into NewYorkTimesToken holders, WSHHToken holders, PlayboyToken holders and you call it Smart Media Tokens based on the STEEM blockchain.... that's trademark infringement, a dilution of the brand, do you understand what I'm saying?
With all due respect Scoop, if I buy something I own it....
Nah.. That ain't true... That ain't true... You wrong right there...
If I buy a car I wanna paint it, I can paint the motherfucker...
Well that's the point Ned... you don't have to. It's good enough the way it is. You can make enough money off it, the way it is, just by calling it STEEM (and doing some marketing, upgrading the Steemit website, building apps, plugins, extensions and all the rest of the shit you supposed to be doing). Anything more than that, is greed son.
What do you want me to do, start a new blockchain?
I'd have to insist that you start a new blockchain.
Fine by me Scoop I'll call it Smart Media Lite...
There you go...
Eventhough it don't sound as good...
I don't give a fuck what you call it, put a choke hold around the motherfucker and call it Dogshit Lite-thereum! Do-you-know-what-I-mean? I don't care, just don't let me catch you doing this again...
(Throws glass) Catch me! Infringement. Insist. I don't like these words as much as 'please', 'thank you', 'I'm sorry to bother you Ned'. These are better words than you coming to my motherfucking Steemfest without an invitation. Do you hear me!
(Smiles) My man... (Gets up and leaves)
