I see you baby,

Ahoy there. I see you've got molasses all over your fingers. Seems you've been flipping through my rolodex. Seems you've been taking what's not yours. Seems like a good idea to put it back now, doesn't it?

Ladies and gentlemen, not to be a bitch about this, but Somebody's been blatently ripping me off. Somebody's front page was 80 percent composed of things from my archives over the last 2 years. Somebody's been taking my conversations, my short stories, my bullshit, the things I like and dislike, and claiming them for her own. She's been sweet enough to take most of it down, including the stuff she stole directly from the Darling Rockstar Sarah Brown. Come the fuck on, girl. You have a kid and a job and school and seeminly a lot of things to be interested in, and you choose to copy directly from the lives of others. Get a hold of your own voice and keep your dirty little hands out of the cookie jar.

Don't do it again, Danielle.

Go! Go! Go! S! S! S!

there are numerous cliched "imitation being the sincerest..." sentiments that would be too easy to trip and trot out right now, but NO.

we're enamoured with YOUR writings and YOUR general stylings, wit and lah-di-dah. I like THIS blog and will not accept any imitations.

in the absence of a meaningful contribution I'll post a link, and highly appropriate under the circumstances if I do say so myself is this site.

ic - or someone who really picked a poor target to rip off ic, or someone that saw that kind of self-deprecating comment once and kind of robotically hit CTRL+C followed by CTRL+V (I'm working on a Windows box tonight - ugh). - good grief I sometimes have trouble shutting up...

It's just so UNCOOL.

However, if I was going to illegally cop anyone's style, it would be Sonya's.

But I'm COOL, see?

DUDE. Some guy was doing that to Yukino for awhile. I think we should track them both down and wring original thoughts from their heads by force. Maybe through use of destroyer planes or incendiary pulp. Seriously.

Sarah, lets just get it over like this: You change your name to sonya and I'll change my name to sarah and we continue writing in our current styles. It'll be just like the parent trap!

Where I come from, that's grounds for a whoopin. No matter if they kin.

I remember once my sister said something that I didn't say, and she got herself the whoopin of a lifetime. It's even worse when someone say something you said and say they said it.

Whoop her.

We were drawing our houses and Patrick Stone kept looking over at mine to see how I was drawing it. I called him a jerk hell and I had to stay after school. Mommy said he was paying me a compliment. And told me that she wanted to introduce me to her new "friend" who'd be staying with us for awhile. Either that or none of this happened at all. I just want a place to live. Help.

Wow.

The idea of someone plagerizing someones online thoughts is beyond pathetic.

If she was here before me, I'd punch her in the throat. Just for you. I mean, I understand why someone would want to steal from your brilliant, diamond-encrusted nuggets of gray matter, but to actually do it instead of just stand back in awe and marvel at your work? piss on that.

I think Ms. Hipmama has been borrowing chapters from Stephen Ambrose again.

Creation/personal expression is the most precious commodity our society has... It's a shame when people don't recognize it...
