Flattery? I say foolery.

Saturday, September 11, 2010



Everyone says 'imitation is the sincerest form of flattery'. Well I disagree. I think copy cats need to join liars on the telephone wire, with their pants on fire. People need to come up with their own creative ideas. If you do something that is truly your own idea, it will come across as your own idea, even if it resembles something of someone else's. It's one thing to get inspiration from something, but to do the exact same thing? Ridiculous. Have you ever noticed when you try and duplicate something that isn't yours to begin with, it never turns out just right? Try doing it in your own style. It will end up 100% better. And won't make the person who came up with the idea want to light your pants on fire.
