Thinking about Dennis Leary “suing Dan Fogelberg for making me into a pussy in the 70s” and reading all the legal/lawsuit topics: If you could sue anybody, who would it be and for what?
It’s not limited to actual live people and the frivolousness (frivolity?) doesn’t matter- sue God, ween, satan, aquaman, Torquemada, the rainbow wig guy, Urkel, (or name them all in the same suit) for any reason you want. It doesn’t matter.
The whole damn entertainment industry, books included. I belong to a profession that is NEVER portrayed in a positive light. Lawyers can bitch all they want, but at least some of their portrayals are heroic.
I am a security officer. In any other society that profession would be considered to be the best of the best, the “Cavalier”, the “Musketeer”, the “Royal Guard”. It used to be that only the most trusted could even hope to attain that position. Now Hollywood shows us to be old or overweight, extremely stupid, and usually the first to die in any confrontation.
Lawyers and politicians have it easy compared to us.
Babar 714: [[Sue YKK because I’ve zipped my penis up too many times.]]
Y’know, after the first time or two you’re supposed to learn not to do that, lest you acquire the nickname “shorty.”
I’m gonna sue every woman who ever rejected me–intentional infliction of emotional distress. I’m also gonna sue every guy who’s better looking than I am–for negligent infliction of emotional distress–and seek an injuction compelling them to stop it.
I’m gonna sue my father, for giving me his disappearing hair. I’m gonna sue my mother for giving me her sense of direction…assuming I can find the courthouse, that is.
I’m gonna sue Bill Clinton, just 'cause I like watching him lie under oath.
I’m suing Bill Gates, on the grounds that I want his money.
I’m gonna sue Mojo, on the grounds that he compelled me to waste my valuable time answering this question. I may sue Torq too, just for the hell of it.
