First, we'll kill all the lawyers

Suit filed over Jackass Show

I'd like to sue this jackass for even contemplating dragging this load of crap into our court system:

Jack Ass says Jackass has given him a bad name. A Montana man who legally changed his name to "Jack Ass" in 1997 has sued media giant Viacom Inc., claiming its stunt-heavy, gross-out TV show and movie Jackass had defamed his character. Jack Ass, a power lineman by trade, said he changed his name from Bob Craft in late 1997 as part of a personal crusade against drunken driving after his brother and a friend were killed in a one-car crash. The suit asks for damages of $10 million or more.

First of all, dumbass, you were the one who (voluntarily) changed your name to Jack Ass in the first place. By doing that, you assumed all responsibility and liability for any jokes and general disrespect, whether real or implied, that may be tossed in your direction. If you'd changed your name to "Steaming Pile of Horse Shit", would you be suing the creators of South Park for their "derogatory" portrayal of excrement?? Get that weak shit outta here (no pun intended).
