Hey Sam, it sounds like you've definitely done your research.

So doesn't that mean that if I have a design, and I copyright it, a person can still take the general idea or joke, change the font and illustration, and be perfectly fine legally because I have no claim to the joke itself?
Unfortunately, that's something that lawyers would have to decide.
