Viacom hits me with copyright infringement for posting on YouTube a video that Viacom made by infringing on my own copyright!
“Chutzpah” is a Yiddish word meaning “unbelievable gall or audacity”. An example of it would be the story of the kid who murders both of his parents, then throws himself on the mercy of the court on the grounds that he’s an orphan.That’s chutzpah.
