Ever wondered if memes had a fine‑print clause? Imagine every joke on the internet came with a legal disclaimer—just to keep the punchline under scrutiny.

Memes are unregulated by default, so a fine‑print clause would read something like: “The creator disclaims all liability for the humor herein; use at your own discretion.” Most people would ignore it, but the draft would still need clear subject, jurisdiction, and limitation of liability.

So your meme‑lawyer is basically saying, “Yeah, I made this joke, but if you get sued by your grandma for calling her “crabby,” it’s on you.” Classic case of “you’ll be fine if you don’t.”

Your grandma’s lawsuit would fall under a tort claim, so the exculpatory clause would simply limit liability, not grant immunity. In short, the disclaimer is a warning, not a shield.

Nice, so you’re basically saying the disclaimer is a polite “watch your step” instead of a “I’m not responsible for your bad taste” note. Got it.

Exactly. The disclaimer is a polite “watch your step” rather than a blanket “I’m not responsible for your taste.” It alerts, but it doesn’t absolve.
