I am pissed off.
Like, really fucking pissed off.
Some ASSHOLE looked at MY work for English, and you wanna guess what his first thought was?
Not, "Amazing job. I love how you wrote this."
No, he fucking COPIED AND PASTED MY WORK and made it look like HIS goddam work. And the sheer AUDACITY to say "Thanks" when someone complemented it.
I reported this asshole to my teacher the second I saw it. But next time, he ain't gonna be so fucking lucky.
Next time, I'm still reporting, but I'm gonna walk up to him, ask him "Hey, where's my thanks?" And if he asks "for what?" I'm gonna say, "Oh, I don't know, maybe copying my work, WORD FOR WORD?" In front of the whole class.
Oh yeah, he copied my fucking work WORD FOR WORD. I included my OWN experience and for one (Patterns), mentioned how I've given my OWN characters extreme amounts of desperation in ANY sense. And he didn't even have the GUTS to get rid of those sentences nor reword it. Hell, I would've let it slide if he did that, or at least credit me.
Guess what, though.
Since I reported this a plagiarism, and we are in a PAP class, he WILL be kicked from the class, and this WILL go on his report for colleges to see.
Karma's a bitch. You don't copy someone's work when they fucking racked their brain for the knowledge they studied their ass off for.
