lulz.

Rock and roll legend Chubby Checker is twisting mad over a software application that allowed women to estimate the size of a man's penis based on his shoe size.
...
The app, which was called "The Chubby Checker," was an unauthorized use of Checker's name and trademark, the lawsuit alleges.

Checker, who is 71 and lives in Pennsylvania, is seeking a half-billion dollars in damages and restitution.


The app sold fewer than 100 copies. Good luck, Boner Checker. I mean Chubby Penis. I mean Big Woody. I mean Fat Penis.

I think I knew someone who scripted something similar to this on their TR-83 back in high school.

EDIT: I believe it took height/weight instead of shoe size and was called the Dongifier.

Yeah, another idiot falls victim to the Streisand effect. None of us would have ever heard of this if Chubby hadn't made a fuss about it.

Unless that's what he wants to have happen...

Well, when was the last time you even thought about him? Ever?

I heard a bit of news about him on the radio a couple months ago... something about the 50th anniversary of the Twist, I think.
