The Disneyland Deadpools Are Already Making Disgusting Jokes About the ‘Terms and Conditions’ Lawsuit
It’s funny how Marvel Jesus and Disney itself both just sort of ignore that one commandment that goes, “Thou shalt not kill.”
Earlier this month, The Walt Disney Company found itself at the center of a social media firestorm after filing a motion to have a wrongful death lawsuit submitted against them thrown out on questionable grounds. This past February, widower Jeffrey J. Piccolo sued Disney Parks and Resorts on behalf of his late wife, Dr. Kanokporn Tangsuan, who died after eating food that was contaminated with allergens at a restaurant within Walt Disney World. In his complaint, Piccolo claimed that the waitstaff at Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant in Disney Springs told Tangsuan that they would accommodate her serious allergies, but the dinner served to Tangsuan by the Disney restaurant caused the doctor to suffer an allergic reaction, and she soon passed away at a local hospital.
But this controversy isn’t just about Disney possibly killing a park guest with unsafe food. No, after the entertainment mega-corporation allegedly ended Tangsuan’s life, they tried to get the lawsuit filed over her death dismissed by citing a clause in the Disney+ subscriber agreement that states, “Any dispute between you and us, except for small claims, is subject to a class action waiver and must be resolved by individual binding arbitration.” Piccolo had previously signed up for a Disney+ free trial.

On August 20th, Disney withdrew their motion to dismiss Piccolo’s lawsuit following massive public backlash, but it barely took the writers of the Deadpool and Wolverine stage shows at Disneyland one week to craft the lamest, least funny and most bad-taste joke about the controversy at Tangsuan’s expense.
The “terms and conditions” “joke” came during a kid-friendly story time performance in which the Disneyland Deadpool told a fairytale about “Cinderpool,” a Deadpool adaptation of the Cinderella story. While some Twitter users claimed that this particular Deadpool actor must have improvised the poor-taste line about a person whom his employer allegedly killed through negligence before attempting to absolve themselves of any responsibility with heartless pseudo-legal bullshit, the Wolverine actor setting Deadpool up for a second wink at the audience with the “I don't get it” line clearly shows preparation.
“They’re joking at the expense of the man whose wife was murdered by Disneyland and then was told he couldn't sue because he accepted the terms and conditions for Disney+,” one Twitter user stated plainly in an attempt to make the Marvel fanboys and Disney apologists realize how ghoulish and insulting the fundamentally unfunny skit really was. The Deadpool army, however, wasn’t having it. Unfortunately, Twitter is lousy with mouth-breathing sociopaths who can’t distinguish reality from fiction, and they believe that a massive corporation thumbing their nose at an innocent person they allegedly killed is okay as long as they do it using the cover of an imaginary antihero who is famous for his dark humor.
“(Ryan) Reynolds would definitely approve,” one such antisocial man-child wrote of the joke.
Another sadistic virgin added, “I like that the guise of Deadpool gives you the ability to shit on anything.”
One more delusional Disney defender lashed out at the more outraged commenters, tweeting of barb directed at Piccolo, “Ooohh shut it. He can’t sue, but they can settle out of court, that’s what the terms and conditions say. More than that, it’s a Deadpool joke, it will always come at somebody’s ‘expense’. If you’re not into that kinda thing, everytime you see Deadpool……….KEEP SCROLLING.”
I guess killing a real-life woman is a lesser crime to the Deadpool fandom than criticizing Disney. Unless, of course, you're wearing a Deadpool costume. Then, anything’s fair game.
