forgiven

he’s going after your writing next!

Not quite. He still stole your brilliant cicada line.
The blatant plagiarism is staggering. Does he write any of his menu item reviews or has he been pilfering all this time? Makes me wonder if he steals other people’s wine notes, too.
If I were Hadley Tomicki or Jenn Harris, I would be interested if someone stole my work. I enjoy reading their L.A. Times contributions.

hope he likes lazy grammar and curse words

We can probably give his side a really healthy “reddit hug”

moonboy403 · July 22, 2019, 8:48pm

the wine notes are from professional critics and he denotes their contributions with their initials before the ratings

attran99 · July 22, 2019, 8:52pm

So it’s okay to steal from some people and not others? This guy is truly something else.

You mean, “Mr. Imperial Fetish”? This witticism (now deleted) is so creep-tactic on so many levels. To be kind, I’ll give him credit for not plagiarizing this one.

Even if you were to ban him, you can’t prevent him from copying and pasting.

I’m seriously tempted to sign up for the LA Times just so that I can flame his a$$. I’m not buying his “excuse” about “accidentally” copying and pasting.

@asgavin: I don’t know you, and I don’t want to get to know you. You should be ashamed of yourself. Have some respect for yourself and for the wonderful posters here who contribute selflessly and give them the credit that they deserve.

fool me once, shame on you
fool me twice, shame on me
In this case it should say shame on you both times

Or this

“There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”

I doubt this is the first, second, and third times he’s done this.

JeetKuneBao · July 23, 2019, 2:49am

Bullshit excuse. Fuk this guy.

Clayfu · July 23, 2019, 6:10pm

sigh.

moonboy403 · July 23, 2019, 6:23pm

what’s your take on this since you know him better than we do?

Nemroz · July 23, 2019, 6:48pm

LOL… how about you just don’t freaking write any reviews if you dont have the time. how about that?

Clayfu · July 23, 2019, 6:58pm

no take. just collective sigh. I don’t control what he does
