i wish i would've known this existed! my boyfriend would've loved this lol
I'm not sure why you quoted me“Whoever made the shirt - did they get the copyright from Disney to do so? If they are making a profit off of the shirt, then it's a big NO. Disney would have the right to ask you to turn the shirt inside out, at the very least. Winnie the Pooh is their licensed character, and anything made for a profit can be banned from the park, to start with. So, yes, they can censor it.”
It is not illegal to posses it. You can make any parody Disney shirt you want and are not violating any laws. It is illegal to sell it. I think you guys are getting way too far down the rabbit hole. No CM is going to stop someone and argue trademark law. They can’t prove he didn’t make it for himself and they aren’t going to ask him to either. Half the people wearing Disney shirts in the park got them on Etsy from someone selling them illegally. Could you seriously imagine them stopping them all? They aren’t going to selectively enforce that either.
If a small child doesn't like the shirt, or understand it their parents can explain it is Pooh dressed as a super hero and the name of the name of that superhero is Deadpool.
My goodness what a world we live in when harmless things should be "banned" instead of parents doing their job and explaining things to their children.
If they did ask about it, I would simply explain to them what it means, because well, I'm the parent and that's my job.
Well, now that it’s been explained to me I understand it and can explain it to others. Prior to this thread, I had no idea about Deadpool. You really can’t assume everyone knows about it.
While I agree with your statement, I still find the name "DeadPooh" inappropriate for a Disney park. I don't think it's vulgar or offensive, just inappropriate IMO.Still, there is nothing vulgar or offensive about the shirt so as a parent your job is to explain to the best of your ability. You tell your child that it is Pooh dressed in a costume. Your lack of knowledge about something doesn't make that something inappropriate, and if you can't figure out something to tell a small child (because who else would really be upset about seeing Pooh like that or seeing the word dead) then that is your issue, it isn't an issue with the shirt itself.
That may be, but you are on an adult forum, speaking to adults. You can't expect to interact with adults in the same way you interact with other teenagers.i'm a teenager, that's how we talk on the internet. it may seem odd/disrespectful to you, but it's a term that should not be taken literally

I'm a 28 year old adult who also uses "lmao" occasionally. I think you're over thinking it and I think they only used it once or twice that I've noticed. It's not a malicious term nor an immature term, its just internet slang for when something is funnier than what an "lol" stands for.That may be, but you are on an adult forum, speaking to adults.

Call me naive I guess, or maybe just living in my own little Disney Junior bubble (kids are 7 and 3), but I had never heard of Deadpool before reading this thread.
Does Darth Vader kill people? I don't even know.
