This is kind of crazy and dumb. One dumb app sues another dumb app… Unbelievable. TechCrunch dug up this crazy news that the creator of ‘iFart’ app has actually gone ahead and filed a court case again ‘Pull my Finger’ app. It all started when the company that makes Pull My Finger, Air-o-matic, asked for $50,000 for using the tagline “Pull my finger!” in some of iFarts PR materials. And then iFart has asked the judge to find that “pull my finger” is part of public domain, essentially shutting Air-o-Matic up with the legal system. Here is the copy of that court document. Here is more from TechCrunch

It’s rare for a genius to truly get satisfaction in his own time. Picasso was unappreciated until much later in life and Van Gogh died before receiving the notoriety he deserved. And so we meet Joel Comm, creator of iFart Mobile, who finds himself so decidedly under-appreciated and misrepresented in the realm fart programs for the iPhone that he is suing his closest competitor, Pull My Finger.

Amazing… isnt it?
