You spelled "MOCKED" wrong.


I'm ALSO the most mocked! Why do you think I'd have trouble admitting that? -- I measure my influence here by the number of idiots mocking me; it's necessary, like a cat keeping score by number of yapping ankle-biters.

How? Since when does the DMCA allow for this?

If that was in fact, possible, there would be no problem, since the assclowns at the studios who do this on a regular basis (to the extent of even taking down their own material) would likely have learned their lessons after a few lawsuits.
