I HATE THE INTERNET!
Those who know me know how much I love originality. I hate remakes (although, as a cute alternative, "You've Got Mail" was pretty different from "The Shop Around The Corner" it was based on"). One of my all time favorite quotes was from Herman Melville:
It is far better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation. (It's the 19th Century American Lit lover in me).
I HATE when you look up a recipe, find it beautifully and lovingly presented on someone's personal website, THEN see it HUNDREDS of other places, copied from that person. Word for Word!
The internet is KILLING OUR CREATIVITY!
Ugh!
