Plagarized, Bastardized, French-Canadianized!

Now you know that I’m the master of my blog domain (I bought my domain name). Today I admit to Googling myself. I’m learning not to feel ashamed–that it’s perfectly natural–and I’m hoping it’s not the cause of the warts on my hands.

After Googling “anns rants” I came across one of my recent posts on Wedding Vows: Un blog utilisant Le Blogue du Québec. Ooh, fancy! It seemed like my post at first. They used my blog title and the correct post name, but after that things got hinky. Unsurprisingly, they didn’t link back to my blog, and the poseur knew how to hyperlink as evidenced by all the random linkage within the post. Had my piece been remotely in tact might’ve felt ripped-off, but I quickly felt no desire to claim ownership of this version. I will only subject you to a sample of the bloggy freakdom I encountered. If you want to see the entire side show click here.

Bastardized Plagarized French-Canadianified Sample:

Beloved allay, on the arrange of our upcoming Tenth Wedding Anniversary I would like to aver I attachment you, I like you, and I declare the following benevolently if and only if you competition my free vows!!When I impediment you sleep-in, you call the prime enthusiastically within ten minutes of down in the mouth prodding. Ok, again this includes unintentional toddler ball-slam but hey, it’s a scads easier than a vasectomy. No no my Dear One, twenty minutes is far beyond my mommy-go-psycho self-satisfaction age. Accept the defiance and we appropriate in the accommodation of Buddies and prepared in the accommodation of an inveigle tote evening bag!Your glasses are down in the mouth. It’s a defiance gift. Again.

Compare with a sample my original post:

Beloved husband, on the occasion of our upcoming Tenth Wedding Anniversary I would like to say I love you, I like you, and I vow the following benevolently if and only if you match my generous vows!!

When I let you sleep-in, you greet the day enthusiastically within ten minutes of gentle prodding. Ok, sometimes this includes unintentional toddler ball-slam but hey, it’s a lot easier than a vasectomy. No no my Dear One, twenty minutes is far beyond my “mommy-go-psycho” grace period. It’s a challenge grant. Accept the challenge and we become “Buddies” and earn an incentive tote bag!

Now, I appreciate the gems “down-in-the-mouth prodding” and “Your glasses are down in your mouth, it’s a defiance gift, again” I only rue a missed opportunity for some fine bloggy collaboration. Quel something-or-other! [insert appropriate french phrase]
