So, you clicked on a clickbait headline...

You forgot the best one.

Yeah, I was referring to that subplot with his girlfriend. The book is gross but at least in the book the girl’s reaction to a guy lying to her is, you know, to tell him to fuck off. In the movie, which seemed to be aimed at 16 year old guys, it was “If you lie to a girl you like and under those false pretenses see…

So, wait, Deadpool’s first movie made a butt ton of money, and a good portion of that was from people who had, at best, a passing knowledge of what deadpool was. I include myself in that category.

So.

That’s not how copyright works. You may be thinking of Trademarks, which _do_ require active policing. Microsoft’s content to let people make Halo fanworks - and even provides some limited support - with the caveat that people don’t use the main series name.

... Then clearly you’re not a fanfiction-loving superfan. But a lot of people are.

You diss bad fanfic writers...have you seen some published work? Sorry, Twilight sucks, on so many levels. Dean Koontz’s later books are just shitty and preachy and plotless. Stephen King is so long winded I get bored 15 pages in. I can’t stand Tolkien either. Get to the fucking point. (I have a fairly short…

I remember this too

Then your world hasn’t been opened to the wonderful world of FanFiction.

John Crawford and Tamir Rice were both killed by police officers called in by someone. So it’s too late for “gonna”

“McCaffrey banned all fanfiction for her series Dragonriders of Pern from 1992 until 2004.”

If you send lawyers or let lawyers send cease and desist letters to fanfic or parody authors, you are doing a terrible job of protecting your creation/brand/company. Those are your biggest fans, they promote your creations even further, don’t discourage them.

The line between super fans expressing their love for your…

Good thing too. I’m up to 125K words in my fanfic. Now that I’m this far in, I’d kinda like to finish without getting a letter from a lawyer. XD

This x1000. Good cops shouldn’t be afraid of cameras, they should insist on having functional body cams. If you’re doing that job correctly it’s just proof against false accusations.

That was the worst part of it all. I mean it directly translates to, “I know I’m in the wrong. Even the police won’t back me up. But you’re still black and I hate your guts and I don’t want to see you anymore.”

The cops SHOULD start arresting people for making these calls. It’s racism, it’s harassment, and it wastes the time of the cops. (That’s our tax dollars being wasted.) I know there are laws against frivolous use of emergency services....why aren’t they enforced?

If I was the cops, I would have been really pissed when the moron of a lady was called out on her bullshit.

“Hurry up, do it, and get out!”

I bet she is already on the phone to the department to complain about sending a black female cop and about how “those people” all stick together.
