Stop! Thief!
Have you ever found out that someone stole your underwear and then danced around in front of all of their friends saying, "Hey, guys! Don’t you love my underwear?"
A similar creepy situation came to light over at Amalah’s blog today. Again, for those of you who have not checked out the entertaining content to the right of the screen, Amalah writes a smart and smart-ass blog about life and kids and wine. So, even if you don’t like life or kids, go check it out for the wine, okay?
Seems a creepy MySpace Cadet calling herself Claudia has been ripping off Amalah’s writing and claiming Amalah’s life as her own. Not just Amalah, either. Several well-known bloggers that ya’ll love and read every day.
Claudia changed names and some details of what she stole to more realistically portray her wicked cool life as an 18-year-old nanny in Vegas. Which, if you check out the site (Note: Put on your special eclipse glasses, kids), you’ll find that she MUST be a wicked cool person. Or, definitely wicked as evidenced by her deep affection for all things Goth.
The point is, kids, inspiration is one thing—-like Amalah and all of her cohorts and Scotty inspiring me to jump on the blogwagon (with a little help from Alice). But, ganking shit is not cool. Not even a little bit.
It’s always good to give credit where credit is due, but for the love of all things sweet and nice, don’t steal.
Why am I ranting at you guys? I’m sorry. It’s just that I had a really bad day. I found out JennyJenny8675309 has been stealing my underwear and dancing around in them for her friends.*
What’s the worst thing someone stole from you? You can tell me in the Comments section and then we can create a MySpace page to see if we can get it back.
*Not the least bit true.
