TTD Sighting

Hey.. I thought you all might want to see this (look at the second picture. And you could almost mistake this one for a non-parody!)http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=1310&p=14

I have to say that was hilarious.
Yeah, I'm sure people are not going to mistake with the use of those several curse words...But everyone has their own brand of realism.

That was not funny at all. Whomever came up with that should be ashamed of themselves. There are other ways to get a good laugh, other than using curse words. That is something that is totally uncalled for. If you think that is funny, you must have a sick sense of humor. This is only my opinion, but, I'm not going to back down from it.
Not to mention that Cedar Point would not approve of one of their copyrighted photos be used for that.

I'm sure they'd love the "99 varities of death", and curse words, what with their family image and all.

Good point. I think Cedar Point needs to be informed of this.

Folks, before you get your knickers in a twist, the fair use provision of the copyright act specifically exempts "parody and satire" from the exclusive rights a copyright holder retains. This is *obviously* a parody/satire of an enthusiast publication, and hence does not require Cedar Fair's permission. Cedar Fair can disapprove all they want, but the fair use doctrine allows this sort of thing very explicitly.

And I thought it was darn funny, besides.

I have a great sense of humor, that was not funny at all. That type of humor is sickening. That type of sick humor shows what this world is coming to. There is clean humor, you know.

Not all types of humor are funny for all. It's what makes everyone different.

Personally, I did find it funny. Funny enough to save to my PC and show my friends? No. But funny.

You know there's nothing good on TV when you're desperate enough to specifically look for infomercials.

Thats gotta be the one of the funniest things ive seen in a long time.

"What is it?"
"I heard it was the worlds largest revolving restauraunt"
"Oh Yeah, well I heard that they melted down wicked twister to make it"

They are using the same laws that lets SNL copy so many other things.

If you dont like it fine. I think its funny, and nice that other people have taken notice of Dragster.

The only thing worse than people who make grammar mistakes are the people who have to point it out every ****ing time.

Even if you couldn't use copyrights for parody, I don't think the TTD logo is copyrighted yet. If you look at the picture of it, theres no R or anything after it. Bu then again I don't know much about patents and copyrights and such.

If idiots could fly planes, this place would be a friggin airport!

HAHAHA!!! It's my new desktop!

Get a sense of humor people.

I found nothing funny about that! And everyone that did, needs to be slapped in the head a couple times. Enough said!

Note to self: Never try to explain things to the GP!

Come on, this was not to be taken seriously. I thought it was funny, it got me to laugh a few times, so it got the job done.
