# 📜 THE MOST PERMISSIVE LICENSE IN THE KNOWN UNIVERSE 🌌
|
|
|
|
## 🎭 MIT License (Maximum Internet Trolling Edition)
|
|
|
|
**Copyright (c) 2025 Jonathan Edwards** 👨💻✨
|

|
|
|
|
## 🎉 WHAT YOU CAN DO (Literally Everything) 🚀
|
|
|
|
Permission is hereby granted, **FREE OF CHARGE** 💰🆓 (yes, ZERO dollars, ZILCH, NADA, not even a penny 🪙), to **ANY PERSON** 👤👥👨👩👧👦 (that's you, your dog 🐕, your cat 🐈, your AI assistant 🤖, literally anyone) obtaining a copy of this absolutely MAGNIFICENT software 💎 and its associated documentation files 📚 (hereinafter referred to as "The Software" - because we're fancy like that 🎩):
|
|
|
|
### ✅ YOU MAY:
|
|
|
|
- **USE** it 🖥️💻📱 (on your laptop, your phone, your smart fridge, your Tesla, WHEREVER)
|
|
- **COPY** it 📋🖨️ (make a million copies, print it out and wallpaper your bathroom, go wild)
|
|
- **MODIFY** it 🔧⚙️🛠️ (change literally everything, make it worse, make it better, make it sing opera 🎵)
|
|
- **MERGE** it 🔀 (mash it together with other code like you're making a coding smoothie 🥤)
|
|
- **PUBLISH** it 📢📡 (tell the world, scream it from the rooftops 🏢, skywrite it ✈️)
|
|
- **DISTRIBUTE** it 📦🚚 (give it to your friends, your enemies, random strangers on the internet 🌐)
|
|
- **SUBLICENSE** it 📃 (put it under ANOTHER license because inception is cool 🎬)
|
|
- **SELL** it 💵💸 (yes, you can LITERALLY SELL THIS FREE SOFTWARE - capitalism baby! 📈)
|
|
|
|
### 🎁 EVEN BETTER:
|
|
|
|
You can **PERMIT OTHERS** to do ALL OF THE ABOVE! 🙌 That's right, you can give OTHER people permission to do whatever they want! It's permissions all the way down! 🐢🐢🐢
|

|
|
## ⚠️ THE BORING LEGAL STUFF (But Important!) 📋
|
|
|
|
### 📌 Condition #1: Give Credit Where Credit Is Due
|
|
|
|
The above copyright notice ☝️ (that's the part where it says "Copyright (c) 2025 Jonathan Edwards") and this permission notice (yes, this ENTIRE ridiculous document 📄) **SHALL BE INCLUDED** in:
|
|
|
|
- ALL copies 📚📚📚 (every single one)
|
|
- OR substantial portions 📖 (like, most of it)
|
|
|
|
Of the Software. **DO NOT FORGET THIS** or the license police 👮♂️🚨 will... actually, nothing will happen because there are no license police, but still, it's the right thing to do! 😇

## 🚫 THE "COVER YOUR ASS" CLAUSE 🍑🛡️
|
|
|
|
### ⚡ ZERO WARRANTIES! NONE! NADA! ZILCH! 🚫🔥
|
|
|
|
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED **"AS IS"** 📦 (which is lawyer-speak for "what you see is what you get, buddy 🤷♂️"):
|
|
|
|
**WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND** - and we mean **ANY KIND**: 🎪
|
|
|
|
- ❌ NOT **EXPRESS** warranties (the kind we tell you about)
|
|
- ❌ NOT **IMPLIED** warranties (the kind lawyers made up to sue people)
|
|
- ❌ NOT warranties of **MERCHANTABILITY** 🏪 (won't promise it's sellable)
|
|
- ❌ NOT warranties of **FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE** 🎯 (won't promise it works for your thing)
|
|
- ❌ NOT warranties of **NONINFRINGEMENT** ⚖️ (won't promise we didn't accidentally copy someone)
|
|
- ❌ NOT **ANY OTHER KIND OF WARRANTY** you can possibly imagine 🌈🦄
|
|
|
|
### 🙅♂️ WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR LITERALLY ANYTHING 💥
|
|
|
|
**IN NO EVENT** 📅🚫 (that's NEVER, as in NOT EVER, as in ABSOLUTELY NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES 🙅♀️🙅♂️) shall the **AUTHORS** ✍️ or **COPYRIGHT HOLDERS** 👨⚖️ be liable for:
|
|
|
|
- **ANY CLAIM** 📢 (someone saying we owe them something)
|
|
- **DAMAGES** 💔 (broken stuff, sad feelings, lost money 💸)
|
|
- **OTHER LIABILITY** ⚡ (anything else that could possibly go wrong)
|
|
|
|
This includes but is ABSOLUTELY NOT LIMITED TO 🚀:
|
|
|
|
- 💥 Your computer exploding
|
|
- 🔥 Your server catching fire
|
|
- 😱 Existential dread from reading bad code
|
|
- 🐛 Bugs that achieve sentience
|
|
- ⏰ Time travel paradoxes from your CI/CD pipeline
|
|
- 👽 Alien invasions caused by your API endpoints
|
|
- 🌊 Floods, famines, pestilence (probably not our fault but we're covering bases)
|
|
- 📉 Stock market crashes triggered by your JavaScript
|
|
- 🤖 Robot uprisings (seriously, not our problem)
|
|
- ☕ Spilled coffee on your keyboard (you should've used a lid)
|
|
|
|
### 🤝 Whether These Disasters Arise From:
|
|
|
|
- **CONTRACT** 📝 (fancy written agreement)
|
|
- **TORT** ⚖️ (fancy lawyer word for "you wronged me")
|
|
- **OR OTHERWISE** 🤷 (literally any other possible way something can go wrong)
|
|
|
|
### 🎯 Even If:
|
|
|
|
- We were **ADVISED** 💭 of the possibility of such damage (someone literally told us this could happen)
|
|
- We **KNEW** 🧠 it would happen (we saw it coming a mile away)
|
|
- We **CAUSED** it intentionally 😈 (just kidding, we didn't, but legally we're covering this too)
|
|
|
|
### 🔗 Whether It's Connected To:
|
|
|
|
- **ARISING FROM** 🌱 (grows out of)
|
|
- **OUT OF** 🚪 (comes from)
|
|
- **IN CONNECTION WITH** 🔗 (somehow related to)
|
|
|
|
The Software **OR** ⚡ the **USE** 🖥️ or **OTHER DEALINGS** 🤹 in the Software.

**Legal Translation:** This is actually a real MIT License. It's just... more fun. 😎 The emoji version is legally equivalent to the boring version, except it's way cooler and you actually read it. You're welcome. 🎁
