I shouldnt let it get to me...meh who cares!
 

(I re-read this and it made it laugh...so yeah...I'll post it anyways!)

Okay,

It's my fault for leaving myspace profile on public.

I don't know if you guys have people copying your style and what you are into.

It just fustrates me because these people somehow end up calling me the fake yet somehow they end up copying my style and what I'm into. Which I fine funny being as I am not a goth.....

How do I know they are getting it from me?

I use to be friends with them and some of the stuff they are obsessed with they got straight from me. But after the friendship ended... I can't seem to get rid of them!

They are like mosquitoes you can't kill!
There is more, I find it odd is when I post blogs with poems that one of them ends up posting similar poetry.

Trust me, these girls aren't subtle when it comes to hiding things.

I really shouldn't let it get it to me. Because it's stupiD and they are Vampire/gothic/dark/whatever wannabes......
They think Paramore and Evanesence are soo cool because they are new and original for petes sake.

Make fun of me for whinning.

I really have to learn not to let this get to me.

Now that I think about it, this is really isn't all that bad and I feel better.

At least on the bright side, the only thing I have to worry about is Finals and

choosing between UCLA and UC berkeley.

Um, how old were you again?

21 and I know I'm not acting like it. I just wrote this spur of the moment

Meh. 21 is still an age where such drama seems like it matters.

It doesn't. And there's always the old saying that imitation is the highest form of flattery.

yeah, your right. I'm probably going to forget this eventually since i'm leaving.

Wow, no it isn't.
At any age this is inappropriate, but at 21...this is REALLY inappropriate.

Yeah, I agree.

Is it just me, or is it true that economic status plays a huge part in it for kids that care about this shit. Kids with no real economic concern, and too much time on their hands.

I'm not proud of it

Um... sure...

I never said anything about whether or not it's appropriate.

since I got your attention (even though it's probably that of someone who's annoyed.) What's your signature mean? I've been wondering that for a while now.

It's the secret formula for the end of the world. The ingredients for armageddon.

Once she gets the Eye of Gingrich, we're fucked. And I got a hunch the bitch bought the strap-on.

I will pay to be first.

Where does the centipede come in?

It's not ok for it to seem like it matters.

Oh, come on.
Molly, you know you're on my VIP list.

It isn't just you.

But answer me this: if an artist complains about someone stealing his art and style, is that ok? Because if it is, what is the difference? Fae created a design and some poetry that was her creation and people ripped it off. I think she deserves to be a little pissed, although I agree with Beneath The Shadows about imitation as flattery and all that.

Be more proactive about guarding things important to you?

If you guys have been sleeping for the last 10 years, let me be the first to tell you this: Once anything enters the public domain, especially the Internet, it will be copied, and stolen, etc. Learn to deal with that.

Not all of it was posted online.

Why does this remind me of something... a member here posted a picture of herself on the internet, and it was posted all over that... Sek? Not exactly the same, but close.

dude.....that is way worse. Poor chick.

Man, I wish I had the power to delete this thread!

Yeah, but the thing is you both should have realized the consequences of posting your shit on the net, even thought twice before doing so.

yeah it was my fault for that one. At least I'm willing to own up to it and learn from it.

Think before you post, saves yourself from the spur of the moment posts.

I should have that written on the side of my computer ha ha!

Yeah it was Sek, her picture even ended up over on 4chan, goodness knows where it went from there, at least it didn't show her face so even if people she knew saw it they wouldn't know it was her

Congratulations on your engagement!

It truly is a sad world when you cant share originality without worrying about someone claiming it as their own. However, think about it this way: The person whom rips you off probably only did so for lack of ability to produce something of similiar quality, or of any quality at all. Thus, making them a fraud in every aspect of the word. It should be taken as a compliment(hence the aformentioned quote: "imitation is the highest form of flattery").

As for the idea that you should never post/share publicly things which you dont want stolen, I agree with that. Of course its gunna piss you off if someone does, but its gunna happen, so before you share, you should remember that. Internet piracy is all too common within the last 10 years, do not make the mistake of thinking you are any different than the corporate giants sueing the world for stolen material.

Thanks Mir ^_^

You should ask him to come on here, so I can subject him to the Father vs. son-in-law grilling. The standard "you hurt her, and I'll break every bone in your body" routine. Teehee.

Yeah, i hope you have a happy life together!

No, I don't think it is okay. "All writing is plagiarism." I'm sure Fae's stuff was no more ground-breakingly original than the subsequent bastardizations it gave birth to. Anyway, we'd be missing some awesome works of art from the world if artists didn't reserve te right to rip one another off at will.

I didn't say it was.

Style=/=art.
Also, I dare her to show us a picture of herself in a style that isn't found in shopping malls 'round the world.
Seriously, you can't bitch that someone ripped off your ripped off style.

I'm more than certain her style isn't at all original.

Oh please, I have yet to see ONE PERSON grace this earth with "original style". Fuck all that.

Well, my freshman year of college there was a nerdy kid who wore this floppy green and white striped fisherman's hat every single day no matter what. I say that's original.

Wow, what thing to whine about.

Yes, why get ur panties in a wad just because you created something and someone stole it? Which also makes us question this: Why is shop lifting a crime? Just because you own it, doesnt mean it's yours, right? I mean fuck, your money doesnt matter! Fuck bill gates, just because he didnt "code" DOS, doesnt mean he shouldnt have it! What would the world be if people were allowed to make a profit from their creations? The seventh circle of HELL, that's what!

(I hope atleast 90% of you were able to see past the sarcasm and view the hilarious irony)

That's your exemplification of "hilarious"?

Well, to be politically correct, I guess instead of flaming for actually having to ask "whai jooz tink dat wuz funy?", I guess I'll have to settle with just saying: I understand that we arent all mentally gifted enough to grasp common humor, you are special in your own way honey.

What if I did grasp it, and instead of making me laugh it made me roll my eyes?

Well, since when someone roll's their eyes it generally means they either dont care or dont wanna hear it, then I'd have to say it means you either dont give 2 shits about the idea of ownership(in which case, can we set up a date when I can come raid your house?), or you commonly object to logic(in which case, you probably shouldnt be posting here).

On the other hand, you could simply be part of that "tough crowd" every comedian encounters at some point in their career.

Wow, seriously. You should be trying to get along with people here, but after saying something tediously stupid you recur to being a pathetic condescending fuck?
You won't last more than a week in here before leaving or completely sacrificing your dignity for the sake of trying and failing to bug someone, anyone, to validate the time you've wasted here.

Awe, did I make u mad? Look asswipe, if you dont want negative responses to the fucktard bullshit u write in response to everything I post, then perhaps you should consider not taking a stab at my intelligence everytime you see a post from me.

We could be friends. I came to this forum in peace. You and several other people decided to greet me with hostility, thats your problem, not mine. I couldnt fucking care less about your feelings, so you can say whatever you want to me, 90% of the time I'm gunna just laugh at you, and 10% of the time I might actually feel like bothering myself with making a response.

I'm sorry, but I can't be friends with someone who thinks reductio ad absurdum is a form of "hilarious irony"

Well gee your majesty, I'm so glad you desided to grace us with your presents. I mean you didn't sound pretentious or anything.

All of ArchLich's posts are hilarious when you imagine the guy in his profile picture speaking them aloud.

I saw it once and it's actually why I feel bad when he fights. Doesn't seem like the type of guy that gets much slack in the world, I would hope he would have a place to fit at least here on the internet.
But then there's how he speaks, and the fact that he's a self professed "know-it-all"
so I figured, meh, fuck that, he's goingto have to learn the hard way not to be a socially inept douche.

The only person I know of who still has an original style is Jimmy Greco.

It's ok, I think I can hold my tears back.
