Do you ever worry your clients will find out about your shenanigans, complain to your firm, have you fired, and get you disbarred?

Technically, this could be attorney advertising, because I am a patent lawyer and this is about patents. I am a lawyer, but I am not your lawyer ("you" being the person reading this) and this is not legal advice. Consult an attorney licensed in your jurisdiction and familiar with the relevant law before making legal decisions.

(whew)

There is a way that one could actually patent their fursona. As in, they would get Letters Patent with a fancy gold seal, and they could say, "My fursona is PATENTED," and when some internet lawyer laughs at them for confusing patent with copyright, they can wave the fancy gold seal RIGHT IN THEIR SMUG STUPID FACE.

I would kinda like to see this happen. I am a terrible person.

Seconded. Can't do it. Closest I ever came to going full Elvis on the TV was a lawyer drama that my wife was watching. I wandered in and this alleged attorney was plain-folksing to a jury and I literally ran out of the room because I wanted to slam the television on the floor.

Those are both good choices. But I would say that, wouldn't I?
