Hey Fandom Wank! Tired of Diana Gabaldon's fans not understanding the difference between fanfic and plagiarism? I know I am!

So let's have some real plagiarism!

Meet kittystrife. Her entire LJ, from fannish to personal posts, right down to the profile, appears to have been lifted from an assortment of other fans.

I am too lazy to link all the instances so far, but it all started here. Other links are here, here, and here.

Like musesfool, I swear those BSG ep reviews aren't hers, but I don't know who they belong to. I'm sure there's lots of other lifted stuff I don't know either. See anything you recognize?

Also, shall we start the countdown to deletion? 5...4...3...

ETA: Thank you, [info]onetimeoffer for doing all the work!

ETA 2: And [info]cesare wins the bahleetion pool at 12:01 pm EST! Um, I've got some gum for your prize, okay, Ces?

ETA 3: [info]mpoetess has more screencaps here. Good wankas help! :D

Beer good. Beer foamy.

I should get some beer. Is 10am too early to start drinking?

It's too early to start drinking beer.

Something harder, however...

I think I might have some kahlua in here somewhere, but that's about it.

I think I'll bake some cookies, instead.

Cookies made with kahlua?

These, actually, but ooh, I didn't even think of adding kahlua to them, I think it would probably work. Hmm, will have to try next time I make them.

You should never drink anything stronger than gin before breakfast.

I was flicking through tabs, comparing things, and then someone mentioned screencaps, so I figured hey, I've already got them open, might as well put that Screengrab extension to use.

It's so rare, being able to see wank unfolding from the very beginning. Thank Ceiling Cat it's my day off, so I can actually stay up and not worry about being dead at work tonight. \o/

You were just in time! The LJ has been deleted. So seriously, this might have disappeared forever if not for you!

*snicker* Not entirely unexpected.

Well, it wouldn't have disappeared forever exactly. We'd just have to go to all the various original authors for it.

This is one of the weirder things I've seen. People with no life at all would be above doing this.
