Star Wars Kid strikes back!

[Maridia]

So I read in the paper today that the Star Wars Kid actually won his case and got like.. 350,000$ out of the fathers of the three boys who put his video on the internet and forced him to suffer such worldwide humiliation. I was like "lol".

Not just because it was the Star Wars Kid, but because it was deemed important enough news to put in the paper. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

No fair. I embarress myself daily and I'm still skint.

He totally should've used his celebrity to his advantage.

I'm sure people would pay to see live performances of the Star Wars kid.

Next thing you know, that Numa Numa guy will want money for humiliating himself too. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif

I think this is total bullshit. These kids found this video (original story was that the kid taped it during a free period while in the A/V room) and sent it over the internet. The kid became famous, eventually, but the two that found the video get sued? And their parents have to pay over a quarter of a million (Canadian, I'm assuming) dollars?

Stupid, just stupid.

Heh, is good that some bullies finally got what was coming to them. Some may say "But they made him famous!", but its not really too fun to be made famous for something as embaressing as that.

Our system is a sick and twisted piece of... I'll stop here, I was going to say bad things...

Well, they got what was coming to them, that's for sure.

[Shadowpawn]

I don't feel sorry for 'em.

Fat kid makes a fool of himself ON VIDEO. He deserves the humilation he got.
