Déjà Déjà Vu

Nothing pisses me off like a rip-off artist. Waitaminute, haven’t I said this before?

Why yes I have.

This is second time I’ve found some blatant rip-off artist while perusing my server’s logs. I’m the first to admit that I have a nice site, but a web site is a form of personal expression.

What does it say about you when you dress yourself up in another person’s web site?

It says you’re a jackass, that’s what it says.

These are the kind of vacuous bubbleheads that dress up in clothes with huge brand name logos plastered all over them. Psst! Guess what? You’re not fooling anyone! Nobody thinks you’re a completely different person just because you changed your packaging. People can always strip away the wrapping, discarding the superficial exterior to get at the truth within. And when they get there, what would you prefer they see? A creative individual with a strong work ethic and original ideas, or some copycat who’s too lazy or uncreative to even create their own web site?

I think the choice is clear. Let’s just hope I don’t have to revisit this issue yet again.
