I’m sorry but your “reassurance” is beyond disappointing. It’s disgusting.
I’m sorry but you need to act faster than that. Like put a disclaimer note on this article *now* at the very, very least. Sluggish responses in the face of obvious plagiarism will get you sued.
No, he was summing up stuff that has been talked about in other places for quite a while.

It’s pretty disingenuous to say that you were “both summing up stuff that’s been talked at numerous other places” because you wrote your article after the Cracked one and you used the same examples and even the same pictures (some of which…

You were thinking about the same examples and same gifs, including movies that aren’t even out yet? You must have been separated at birth.
Yeah, someone got ripped off...
Are you David Christopher Bell, by chance?
UNWRITTEN RULES, man. As someone said above me, it probably would have wound up sparking a brawl if he’d gone near him.
Unwritten rules, man. Established vets would be able to get away with something, especially if they were former teammates with the batter, but having a rookie in his 2nd start of the season or whatever it is go near him would probably spark a bench clearing incident. because REASONS
Even better is when kids come home from school with a bambi look in their eyes about flushing the toilet ... then ask for hamburgers for dinner. Look up the water use difference in those two things. Of course, if a school teacher was caught mentioning the water use of cattle, they would be instantly crucified at the…
