Charles Carreon
Summary
Charles Carreon is quite possibly the stupidest person to ever manage to pass a bar exam and enter the legal proffesion. He's an old relic of the late 70s, early 80s brand of ambulance chaser slash threaten to sue every other person with a pulse style of bully-lawyering. Aside from being the inspiration of the Rocky 5 villian, Charles is currently best known for reaching a level of butthurt so absolutely unprecedented in Internets history that he's gone out of his way to try and sue major charity organizations in quite possibly the most fail attempt at trying to "get back" at another person on the Interwebs for making him so incredibly butt flustered.
Enter The Hero
The hero of this story is The Oatmeal, a popular web comic that's stylized after the enraged crayon dribblings of a spastically hormonal seventh grader strung the fuck out on Pixie Stix and Pepsi. Due to its stunning visual quality and uber sophisticated humor it has become wildly popular, boasting a fantard following that spans over a half million sheeple!
The Story Begins
Due to its popularity an endless swarm of 13 year old boys began pissing all over The Oatmeal's copyrights and started mass distributing and "sharing" his work on other popular websites which then profited off of it via their own ad banners, most notably the ironically unfunny Funny Junk website.
The Oatmeal originally cried foul against this unwanted ass rape of his art and demanded that his images be removed from the site. However he quickly realized the futility of having to file DMCA take-down requests for every single pilfered photo that could just be reuploaded again and again by different users and instead chose to mock the Funny Junk website in satirical, comedic fashion.
Believing that to be the end of the whole affair, The Oatmeal went on with life as usual, leaving the whole mess behind them.
One Year Later
Enter the villain, Charles Carreon! Almost exactly one year later The Oatmeal was served with legal papers from Charles Carreon on behalf of Funny Junk, demanding that The Oatmeal pay him and his client TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS for stealing hosting his unlicensed comic on their site for the past three years.
Their reason and justification for this overly obvious attempt at outright laughable extortion/blackmail was that The Oatmeal had made fun of them for stealing his work and that it ~totally~ ruined their e-reputation on the Interwebs!
