Copycat

A copycat is....

...NOT a CAT...

...OR a photoCOPY machine.

Based on Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary, a copycat is defined as one who imitates or adopts the behavior or practices of another.

Do you feel annoyed when someone copies from you?

Let it be exams, ideas, pictures, outfits etc.


I can't stand copycats.
I feel annoyed when people copied my things without asking for permission or acknowledge me.


Well, not exactly EVERYTHING but certain things and also depend on WHO is it.
(if you know what I mean. Haha.)

So...
How do you deal with copycats?


If you confront them, there are probably 2 outcomes :
1. They will apologize, ask for permission properly this time and acknowledge you.


2. They will deny that they copied, throw a fit at you, and acted as though it is originally theirs.


However, I wouldn't know which outcome will take place right?

Thus, to avoid unnecessary arguments and instead of wasting all my anger and frustration on the copycats
(and to deal this matter in a positive manner, *breathe in, breathe out*),
I should probably feel flattered instead because THAT particular something that I have must have been good right?

If not, why would anyone want to copy ME?

  1. I know very well who you are talking abt... That girl really copied the ideas from your blog 100% and not bothered to ask for a permission 1st... It's like looking at a photostated version of your blog, when viewing her blog. Haiz, that poor pathetic girl taking without asking and making other people think that the idea is originally hers... Not to worry, we know exactly who the ideas came from... Congratz for a post that is provoking other people's thoughts! It makes your blog a nice read! Keep on posting!!!! Here's looking forward to your next post! Cheers!

    P.S.: I realise that the girl's blog link was no longer under "Fun Frens". Guess she's no longer fun, huh?
