It's illegal by some standards. That is why you get carded for buying adult material. Ummm... yeah anyway.

Oh, if you want a great dictionary, try onelook.com

Oh, he's still here. He's Kat Corbett or whatever now. Like all stupid idiots, he'll continue his behavior till the amusement ends. You just have to learn to ignore/ban them if they don't do illegal stuff and the death threats on LJ constitute illegal. My own set (I have a set, not one or two) just do their own thing of stunt stapling comments and fake jokes. They get such a kick out of it and it's not illegal, I just let them continue on with it in the privacy of their own stuff since most sane people look and go "Crazy person." Cassie's stalker hasn't quite figured out how IP addresses work based on their posts so they demonstrate extreme stupidity.

As for Warner Brothers, it is hardly the first and last fandom to get nailed for Slash. Several others have gone through it to. I don't sense any real problem though since while they have said this, they haven't taken any real action.
