Why steal from hacks? Pick on someone good!

-Day 54. Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.- Howard Aiken
So...

There I was, in the middle of the night (9:30 pm-ish), looking for a small used desk on Craigslist, (my accountant will not approve a purchase of a new one for blogging purposes, he also doesn't care that my booty becomes numb, my back and neck ache from sitting on our uncomfortable art deco couches because the only spot for my laptop is on the coffee table, while he is on his comfy throne in his dungeon) (and by dungeon, I mean place where he keeps his gaming computer, comic books, dolls khhrrm uh... ACTION FIGURES, salt water aquarium, electric guitar, etc. etc.) But I'm not bitter.

Anyway, as usual, my attention is jumping from here to there (me, shoes, desk, shoes, blogs, shoes, me) when I decide to Technorati myself. Why? Because I'm vain.

That's when I saw it. Somebody took my Valentine's post and put it up as their own.

Well, techinically they just took my title, the anonymous quote I found and the Savage Chicken cartoon. Still, I worked damn hard on that post!

Hold on, I don't remember what it was about, let me go check it out real quick. Uh... okay, I didn't work that hard on it but the title... I was so proud of the title: Day of Masacre and Love ♥.

This chick even used the same font! Because I'm about as computer litierate as an ant hill, I can't tell if she linked me. If she did sorry(ish) if she didn't for shame!

My spirit is broken! Please click on Humor-Blogs and make me smile.

  4. Oh well, you should be flattered. Or something.

    Plagiarize,
    Let no-one else's work evade your eyes,
    Remember why the Good Lord made your eyes,
    So don't shade your eyes,
    But Plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize!

    That's all my own work. I didn't steal it from Tom Lehrer.

  5. hi bee!!! I had to sit and read EVERYTHING I've missed...I had no idea you were having a Humor War?! And I LOVE your new do'! Me likey!

    RE The Stealer: Should we go over to laugh and taunt her until we break her self esteem?? Sounds like a plan...

  6. Dear Bee,
    How did you find her blog to find out that she stole your thingy? Are you a faithful reader of hers? I've got to tell you, her place gave me the creeps. I don't know, at any moment I was expecting her to whip out some mud and paperclips, mold it together and exclaim "BEAUTIFUL ART!"
    Hey, if stealing someone else's work is considered art, my talent level just went WAY up!
    Love
    Tracy

  10. On one of the Cypriot blogs they were complaining because their idea was reproduced almost exactly in a national newspaper! And then a national TV station used it in one of their comedy programmes.

  11. WTF???! She is a bad, bad person! Tracy is right...that was totally creepy. I'm shocked! What an ass (her, not me. Well...maybe me too, but just a little bit.).

  12. I think you should have a new blog slogan:

    "Accept no imitations"

    or

    "Often Imitated, Sometimes Duplicated, Never Equalled"

    ReplyDelete
  13. Ok, so did we agree on that 11th rule where if you don't claim and take full advantage of the honor and awesomeness of 11thness then the next person gets to be it?

    ReplyDelete
  14. NCS:

    That would be me, then.

    Or does it keep going through all the commenters until someone says"Woohoo! I'm 11th!"?

    Woohoo!

    I'm 11th!

  15. Jean Knee thinks the strange girl likes you which inspired me to do this:

    Bee and The Strange Girl Sitting in a tree.
    The Strange Girl is
    P.L.A.G.I.A.R.I.Z.E.ING

    God, if that didn't scream I'm a mom with nothing to do, I don't know what will.

    And Woohoo..11th!

  16. Dear Bee-
    Ok, did you read any of the other posts on the strange girls blog??? The post that comes after the one she stole from you is so GROSS. I mean it was so gross that I actually gagged and it takes a lot, A LOT to make me gag. I work or worked rather in the medical profession. But that post was gross.
    Gross.
    Stay away from her Bee, she gives me the heebie jeebies!
    Love
    Tracy

  17. That little beyotch even spelled 'massacre' the wrong way, too.

    She needs to go misspell her own damn words and stop cheating them off you!

  18. I've had problems with someone in the Phillipines stealing my stuff, too. In fact, he has a whole blog filled with my posts. I e-mailed the webmaster who has done nothing! :( A-holes.

  19. NCS:
    My life in 38 words! ;o)

    Brian:
    Or something is right!

    somegirl:
    HEY! GLAD TO HEAR FROM YOU! She seems dumber than a ball of wax.

    Tracy x 3:
    I really have no idea how she popped into my Techno thingy I have no clue and don't worry, I will not be going on her site. Or maybe I should since I found out she stole from another blogger. I already let him know.

    Dan:
    You have a talent for rap, who knew?

    jean knee:
    Ha! I guess that's ... good?

    Bex:
    yup, she's insane!

    NCS:
    Yeah, the non-claiming 11th of 11th makes the next person eligible claiming.

    Brian:
    I like "Often Imitated, Sometimes Duplicated, Never Equalled" maybe I'll steal it! ;op

    Tracy:
    Hey Hey, no love songs for me and that weirdy.

    Aroogoogoola:
    Uh... yeah I did that on purpose for tracking purposes. I sure did!





    DAMN SPELL-CHECK!!

  21. Dear Bee-
    Yes, yes fine no more love songs yada yada but did you read that other weird post on her blog? I will NOT allow myself to be the only one disturbed and with burned retinas.
    SOMEONE ELSE READ THE POST THAT COMES AFTER THE ONE STRANGE GIRL STOLE FROM BEE!
    Love
