First one is kinda a weird thing, because from the sounds of it she basically thought up a five second clip thing they expanded into a full song and now she's acting like they stole a song she fully wrote The other three are, uh, in order: reminisce with your daughter's boyfriend about the 80s until one of the two feels weird, kill your rapist husband, and that is absolutely not at all legal but you're a child so you p. much have no rights whatsoever relative to school, effectively

That could be my misplaced faith in humanity acting up again though. Easily. e: Went back and looked to be sure, but that’s pretty much exactly what she says.

And even in the latter case, there is a ton of examples in the actual industry of people coming up with a really short but memorable motif that becomes the core of a song, not being credited initially and later winning a fight to be recognized as co-author and get a cut of the royalties. Legal bullshit aside, it's still a dick move to refuse to credit her even informally after she specifically got upset over it. Just throw her a shoutout! (unless he's worried about setting a precedent and losing out on actual money because he believes the band will actually take of nationally off the back of this and doesn't want her to have any rights over it)

Smirking_Serpent posted:My (24F) boyfriend (32M) did something weird while I was sleeping.  That's sexual assault and if you feel bad about it that's because someone stuck their dick in you while you had 0 way to consent.  I actually did wake up in the middle of a bj once. It took my brain 6-7 seconds to wake up and realize I don't remember how I got into that position, at which point I freaked out and stopped. My ex had a habit of weird sexual "sleepwalking" so it wasn't surprising that something had happened from his end, but it was such a weird feeling that I guess I was susceptible to it as well. As a lighthearted story though, one time he suddenly sat up in bed, jacked off for about two seconds and then rolled over and tried to stick his half chub in me, only to be foiled by the fact that I wear pj's to bed. Then he just fell on top of me and went back to sleep. Took me a while to learn that he's honestly not conscious during these moments. Sometimes his eyes would be open and you could swear he was but he wasn't.

quote:So, recently I gave some sexy photos to my boyfriend of a year and a half (he is 38, I am 37). He used one as the wallpaper on his cell phone and 3 times "accidentally" let other guys see. I was upset but let it go and he finally changed the photo. But she can be kind of annoying so that makes it understandable.

It dosn't matter weather he is or not, the ability he or indeed a whole bunch of 'hes' would have to track students outside of school hours on their personal phones is far too great a risk. Calling him a predator would merely be a convenient start to the legal war I'd wage over it.

Fatkraken posted:yeah, he totally knows he's in the wrong but he thinks this is going to be their breakout hit and doesn't want her to get half/all the money going forwards. How does someone prove she "totally came up with the hook of a song" when she admits she was drunk at the time? quote:A couple months back while drunk my boyfriend and I were screwing around with my keyboard and his guitar. I am not a musician, btw. Just a lowly student/bartender. I came up with this like one minute bit that, at least in my drunken state, sounded pretty rad. I mean it was dumb as hell but it sounded good. We laughed about it and that was it. 'In my drunken state' could mean anything from she came up with an incomplete chord progression to vague intervals that were completely off key and needed a lot of polishing to get right because beer goggles are super A Thing and especially pertinent when it comes to music. Lyrics would be a bit more different but the only indication she came up with any was her mentioning she recognized the song when the lyrics kicked in. Like all the examples y'all brought up are people outright copying actually finished songs with no credit given. Not "I took an idea from someone who was drunk off their rear end and polished it up into a song." Also extra lol @ "I just want a few hundred bucks from him" when that's probably the sum total he's earned at all these performances.

In a just world I’d agree that she’s got no leg to stand on, but now that the principle of “If it tastes like chicken then I guess you stole it” seems to hold in music copyright law then I really don’t know. ishikabibble posted:Also extra lol @ "I just want a few hundred bucks from him" when that's probably the sum total he's earned at all these performances.

The beer goggles thing also came to mind, though I didn't really wanna yell out that she was an unreliable narrator, and I kinda see it the opposite way from Burial in the sense that it seems like what she actually wants comes out with the "maybe give me a few hundred dollars" thing I dunno, Vanilla Ice blatantly stealing the core bass riff of a whole song doesn't seem like the same thing as her drunkenly coming up with a riff and then them turning it into a whole song later

Copyright law can be insanely complex, and you do have copyright from the moment you create something This is a lot easier to prove now that you can prove that you put something on an internet forum or SoundCloud years ago, but it's still essentially impossible to prove if it's just a matter of you saying "yeah I thought that up years ago, where's my money" Anne Whateley posted:"She was drunk, she couldn't possibly have / must be lying / etc." is a weird argument considering her boyfriend was also drunk Unless the boyfriend was drunk for several months straight (which is possible, to be fair, he is a musician) then it is not at all a weird argument Blade Runner fucked around with this message at 14:45 on Sep 27, 2018 |

You probably won't get what you paid for them, but it's better than throwing them away. I sold the ring I got for my ex when we split up, I had documentation from the store that valued it higher than I paid for it so I ended up only losing like $200 on it when I sold it to some guy. Used the money to buy a new TV and some other poo poo I'd been wanting, worked out pretty well.

If the gem(s) is/are nice (they aren’t), he could have them remounted on a different band or potentially the same band in a different style. I thank God my wife doesn’t expect me to be a mind-reader. When I proposed, I ordered a “placeholder” engagement ring (a nice but low-caret ring) from Bluenile.com, then after we got back to the States I returned it under their 30-day no questions asked policy, and she and I found for the one she wanted.

I'm sure the rings probably suck, but he could still get a decent chunk of whatever they cost if he were to sell them, especially if he had any sort of valuation paperwork for insurance purposes. My wife and I went ring shopping before I proposed and I had her narrow it down to 2-3 ring styles then I picked on when I went back by myself. Your way sounds like a good way to make it a complete surprise without wasting a ton of money on a ring she won't like though, kudos!
