Gay of Thrones meets ... Gay of Thrones?

Everybody knows about HBO's spectacularly popular series, Game of Thrones, which just finished its fourth season. And if you're gay, you very likely know about Gay of Thrones, the hilarious Funny or Die Web series, in which real-life hairstylist Jonathan Van Ness recaps each sexy, dark and exciting episode of GoT with twists that are in turn clever, sassy and just plain nuts.  

Which begs the question, why on earth would Men.com choose to give its gay porn parody of Game of Thrones the exact same title as Jonathan Van Ness's creation? How about Game of Bones? or Game of Throats? or Game of Moans? Anything but a title that it already in use by someone else. Men.com uses the catch phrase, "I will take what is mine" to promote the series, so maybe they're in a taking mood. 

Here's an interview with the very original Jonathan Van Ness (who is probably wondering if a parody can sue another parody). Below is Men.com's ad with yummy Dato Foland (the inset it ours). The season finale of Gay of Thrones, the non-porn parody, follows.
