While waiting for inspiration to write my next article, I stumbled upon this ColdPizza Parody by Scott Lazar and others. I can't help but think that translating a normal license to another area ends up as a hilarious parody makes a somewhat sorry statement about the current state of the "cultural industry."
As usual, the comments of the readers are adding a lot to the experience. This is a reaction to having admitted making a Pizza omelette:out of Cold Pizza:
You will pay dearly for that, Mr. RealProgrammer.
The PIAA (Pizza Industry Ass. of America) does not find it amusing
that you would pirate the hard work of their members. Creative people
making almost minimum wage put many years of total effort into that
recipe, and they have a right to insist that you only use the
ingrediants as intended.
The PIAA expects you to identify yourself and pay prompt restitution
forthwith. Failure to do so will result in legal action against you
and any of your friends or family with which you have shared in this
abominable piracy of fine pizza ingrediants. Our legal firm, "Dewey,
Cheetam, and Howe" will be in contact with you as soon as they can
compel your grocery store to identify you.
We believe our motto says it all: "The PIAA: All your pizza are belong
to us!"
I think their correct name is "United Pizza Industry Technologies of America (PITA)", though. ;)
