So the rip off gets ripped off!?

Not that they’re alive to witness these things, but I do kind of feel bad for the likes of Milne and Christopher Robin, who were real people and not just made up fictional characters.

I wonder if there’s a way for them to go after the fact Pooh never wore a shirt — whatever the color — in the Shepard illustrations…

What an ass of a title.

And why is it that any Winnie ripoff has to be something so nasty? Why not just come up with new stories based on the original concept?
