Of theft, hypocrites and unoriginal irony

Do you feel that? The internet is picking up speed. It's subtle, but more and more people are becoming aware of how immediate this little acorn has become. And they're responding by flooding it with more crap.

First you had the kid doing the Britney meltdown. It hits the web.
Then you had the political spoof.
Then Jimmy Kimmel makes fun of it.
Then the French.
to the point where Seth Green's spoof of the meltdown defending the original meltdown is boring.

Stuff gets trendy fast. Jagerbombs is to sorority whores as the internet is to redundancy. There is nothing new on the internet. Everything is pilfered from somewhere. Whether it's that new Foo Fighters album, or the vintage porn or your witty jokes about soliciting gay sex in a bathroom, it all exists somewhere already. Whether you know it or not. The only way to have something truly original is to create something fantastic. And then you wait for the rip off.

It's inevitable. It's what happens when an acorn sprouts. And i guess i'm trying to justify why my last few posts have been purely embedded video.

Move on.
