Tori Amos PLAGIARISM!!! wank//"Bitch, the people in this community invented this little game."
Over on LJ's Tori Amos snark community tblsurvivors,
pandelirium posts about a post in
toriamos about a Neil Gaiman tribute album, and makes some remarks about "cross-pollination," which everyone generally agrees are funny because of Tori's latest obsession with bugs, bees and the like (her latest record is entitled The Beekeeper).
Then
velvet_widow shows up, claiming PLAGIARISM!, and also tl;dr-ing everything to death in the process. TBLS's members proceed to snark it up.
velvet_widow: "While many US fans, may see this as only an attempt to suck money from Tori fans – there are plenty of European ones who indeed know the bands featured on the album and a wait the albums release proving that not all opinions on the subject run congruent. Then again – I am still baffled by those who bash Tori’s Beekeeper album because it is “different” from the others, thinking “everyone would be bitching if it was the same old shit over and over again” ~ Tori stands for evolution of self inside and out – one should embrace that not destroy it and cut it down."
saralogan: "So it's not hypocritical to call someone a plagiarist for linking to your post, and then you use Tori's lyrics without permission? That's good to know. I should put your definition of HYPOCRISY in to the Encyclopedia Dramatica.
And really, calling a militant feminist bisexual someone who is prejudiced just sounds stupid.
Can you come up with an original insult, or will you continue to rely on Tori's quips to make yourself look like the better obsessed fangirl?"
cussingbride: "Plagiarism? Wait. Did you get explicit permission from Tori Amos to use the name of one of her songs as your alias?"
DIDN'T THINK SO. I WIN AGAIN."
And it goes on.
