Here's the story. Just playing devil's advocate here: Isn't parody protected against copyright and trademark violations? Of course, what's to prevent someone from stealing an idea and just claiming it was a parody... hmm...

Thinking about that thought reminded me of this fine Simpsons quote...
Homer: Marge, may I play devil's advocate?
Marge: Go ahead, Homer.
[Next scene: Homer playing a pinball game called Devil's Advocate]
