$250 million for being having his likeness “stolen” by a cartoon. Doesn’t he still have his likeness? His likableness is in question, but he still has his likeness, so it was not stolen. I say award him with $250 million dollars from Mr. Burns (good luck getting it from him)- A cartoon settlement for cartoon crimes.

I’ve noticed that has been happening a lot on FR, just pure laziness. I guess, it takes too much effort to click on Shift AND the letter at the time.

The Simpson character doesn’t have big caterpillar-like eyebrows. Case dismissed.
