Internet Weirdness
OK, just for fun, I was googling the terms "Dr. Teeth" and "inspiration" (yes, to see where my previous post falls), and made a very interesting discovery...
Someone in mainland China wholesale copied my page, put it up on some other weird page, and didn't attribute me.
I'm honestly not sure whether to be flattered, offended, or... I don't know. I mean, granted, the content of that last post of mine wasn't wholly original. But the concept of it, and the way I phrased it was mine. I gleaned all the images. If this is a way that Chinese people can get to read my blog that they otherwise wouldn't be able to, then I guess I don't mind. But to see my blog post just slapped unattributed up on someone else's anonymous blog-bot is a weird sensation.
And what the hell is a Sophia Lauren Wikipedia anyway, and what the hell does that have to do with the Muppets???!!?!?
More to come soon...
