    Guess it's not only an American thing to try and sue for money when you have no case at all.

    Glad to see we're not the only messed up ones.

    Uhm ... interesting :wth: This is making me wonder if J.K.Rowling named The Wierd Sisters after them, being the so-called plaguarist she is.

    Well, let's not characterize an entire nation through the actions of a few people. This rarely occurs here.

    True -- but it rarely happens over here, too, yet it's always brought up.

    Oh snap.

    If The Wyrd Sisters trademarked or whatever their name, I'd imagine they would have a legit case. If the book/movie has a band named "The Wyrd Sisters", and the original is trademarked, they're have to pay royalties to the original band. Even if it's "The Weird Sisters", that's still too close to the orignal, I'd imagine.

    No, I mean maybe they were born in the US, and they moved to Winnipeg?

    You know what really makes me laugh? How quickly this became a racial thing.

    Grow up, everyone.
