I think we'll be seeing a new age of copyright infringement, yes, the age of suing people over the stupidest fucking things: intellectual thoughts
Hmm, I didn't realize I couldn't say a certain word without being sued for infringement, or think a certain thought without being sued as well. Maybe I want to name my dog after a tribal God, does that mean I'm libel to be sued?
Oh no, here come the thought police! FLEE! BIG BROTHER! FLEE!

Sorry, but I can prove prior art on this idea. $5 please, or take down your post.

What's next? Firaxis is going to be sued by every friggin' civilization on the planet? Oh hell, let's just file a class-action suit on behalf of the people of Alpha Centauri while we're at it. ;)

Actually Alan, the Earth is already under lawsuit. Beings from Alpha Centauri have filed a prior art dispute on respiration.

This thread starts to bear a frightening resemblance to the "X-wing vs. Y-wing" thread.
