Amusement of the Day:
Sep. 6th, 2007 01:43 pmFanfic is the using of other people's characters without permission in stories of your own. Most people put disclaimers on the top that say that's what they are doing.
Some of these disclaimers are very, very amusing. Type that I get the biggest laugh out of go something like this:
I don't own the characters of *insert name of show*. They're owned by *insert creators/owners*. However, all other characters are mine, so please don't use them without my permission.
Yeah. Because it would be just so wrong for someone to take something I created and use it. Fanfic about something I write is just wrong.
Sometimes fans baffle me.
