Okay, here’s the deal. Recently someone named Jonathan stole one of my ideas.
Expletive Deleted.
A few months ago I was talking with him in casual conversation, and tossed out some ideas which, in the months past, he has come to think are his own.
This means that from now on, I can only express ideas (a) to a person i trust implicitly or (b) in a forum which has a record of the idea’s originator.
Stealing is not good.
And Jonathan, if you are reading this, I ask you to consider whether or not you are right, and to think about what it means to take another person’s ideas as your own.
Lesson learned.
That is all.
Jacques Closeau is alive and well. How can I not cover this story from boingboing about a guy tripping on his shoelace down a museum staircase and breaking three priceless vases?
