Laura Pahl is a Plagiarist
This link is making the rounds quickly.
What follows is the epic saga of a random instant message that came to me from a stranger this weekend, asking whether I wanted to be paid to write a college paper for her. Bitch didn’t know she was fucking with a comedy writer….
I had been convinced by my parents the other day to come home to Pennsylvania for Easter. After letting Mom feed me, and playing with her dogs, and all that stuff I have to do when I'm home, I go to check my email.
When I'm home, I connect to the Internet using the AOL account my parents have kept open for me since high school. And since I don't use it except when I'm home, I just haven't bothered to change the profile, where apparently, about 8 or 9 years ago, I had listed one of my hobbies as "Eating Hindu Sculpture." That should be enough information for you to appreciate the instant message exchange that follows. Her instant message name has been changed to her real name, as has mine.:
Metafilter breaks out in debate to figure out who is in the wrong here. Personally, I couldn't care less.
