This is ridiculous
Taylor Swift must face a jury trial over accusations that she copied lyrics for Shake It Off from another song.
A US judge has refused Swift's request to dismiss the case, saying a jury may find that her 2014 hit copied girl group 3LW's 2001 tune Playas Gon' Play.
Both tracks feature variations of the phrases "players gonna play" and "haters gonna hate".
The judge had previously rejected the case, saying the lyrics were too "banal" to be copyrighted.
In his original ruling, District Judge Michael W Fitzgerald cited 13 earlier songs that featured similar phrases, including Playa Hater by The Notorious B.I.G. and Dreams by Fleetwood Mac.
Common sense I would say, people are constantly looking at status symbols and it only gets worse the higher up you go.

Why do they sell 2022 cars when 2021 isn’t even over yet? My car was built in Oct 2009 according to the driver side door sticker but it’s a 2010 model year.

dipro's reign of terror continues
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) – Ryan Brandt was one of two servers waiting on a party of more than 40 people at Oven and Tap in Bentonville, Arkansas on Friday.
When it came time to pay the bill, each diner left a $100 dollar tip for a collective $4,400 for the two waitresses.
“It was an incredible thing to do and to see her reaction was awesome, to see what that meant to her, the impact that it’s had on her life already,” recalled one of the diners, Grant Wise.
Wise, who owns a real estate company, said he called ahead to the restaurant and asked about the tipping policy, to make sure everything would go smoothly.
But he told Nexstar’s KNWA things did not go according to plan.
“I was told that I was going to be giving my cash over to my shift manager, and I would be taking home 20%,” said Brandt.
Brandt said the restaurant asked her to share the tip with her co-workers, something she said has never happened in the 3 1/2 years she worked at Oven and Tap.
Wise said pooling tips with those who didn’t wait on his party was not his intention. He asked the restaurant to return the gratuity and he gave the cash to Brandt outside.
Brandt said after that, she was fired, leaving her no way to cover her bills.
