We broke up six years ago. For some reason, you still like to call
me or write me every so often to remind me how much better than me
you’re doing and how swell your life is. Good for you. The other day I
was reading your blog, and I felt like I’d read it somewhere else
before; I searched for some of the phrases you used. I knew they
weren’t your words—you still can’t even fucking spell
t-o-m-a-t-o. You plagiarized it from Craigslist. So I continued
searching to see about the rest of the entries—it turns out every
blog entry you’ve posted for the past two years is completely stolen.
You even pretended other people’s pets were yours. So if not those
things, what have you been doing? What proof is there that you do
anything at all besides get pregnant? The worst part is that even when
fabricated, your life still sounds completely mundane.

  1. Oh whats going on, I just woke up from being put to sleep from the most boring anonymous post ever. Come on! We need sex drugs, rock n roll and the revealing of the darkest and deepest confessions. Aren’t these things for some kind of mild entertainment?

  2. And somehow, Anon, in the midst of the rich and engrossing tapestry of experience that is your daily life, you found the time to (a) visit the annoying 6-year ex’s blog in the first place and then (b) obsessively cross-ref text from every post to discover OMG pLaGiArIsM. You two should get back together. You could hate-bore each other to death.

  3. What’s really sad is that Anonymous claims to be over this person and yet still feels the need to fact-check their ex’s blog.

  4. Haha, you commenters are like frickin 10 year olds complaining that the new Star Trek didn’t have enough explosions.

  5. it’s delusional that the anonymous author does not recognize how transparent their action was. it seems that their lies are really much more boring than their ex’s. boring, boring lies to oneself.

  6. @10: Ya know, one of my numerous pet peeves is the way “stalker” gets thrown around these days. Apparently this woman e-mails and calls the writer periodically to tell him (?) how she’s doing. It’s not stalking to read someone’s public blog.

  7. I love how no matter what is written in I, Anonymous, the petty and immature shark tank that reads it immediately tears the author to shreds. Every week… Someone could write, “You murdered my cat,” and the first comment would say, “Well you deserved it, you stupid whore!”

  8. wait so this sounds like ap lausible complaint until thinking about the words,..”i was reading your blog..”
    hello pot, please meet kettle.

  9. @19

    So 18 was a poet
    And I didn’t even know it!

    Silly me.

    I think I’ll still shred devon rocketship, thanks. It sounds a lot more fun than reading his blog.

  10. Point of order on obsessively cross-reffing:

    How many Google searches does he get before it actually becomes “obsessive”? I say five.

    In the modern era of the Internet, however, you get two free searches for anything no matter how stupid. It’s just how it’s done.

  11. 1. Stop reading your ex’s blog. It’s unproductive, emotionally corrosive dwelling on the past.

    2. Your ex sounds like they suck. Do you sort of suck therefore for having dated them?
