Needy little fucker, aren't you.

What troubles me about this, as it did in more recent years at cruel.com, is seeing our posts syndicated, marketed wholesale elsewhere without so much as a by-you-leave.

Your insights and mine are worth something.

You gotta remember, the same is true of literally every page of the Web that isn't protected in some way.  In terms of "worth," that puts us in the same league with Wikipedia, fatchicksinpartyhats, deadspin, the NYT, ratemypoo etc.

As for not being alone here, that epiphany struck me years ago at Cruel, when I saw some read counts.  That definitely freaked my shit.  I have never forgotten that feeling; I don't think of it as paranoia, but I am extremely careful about what personal info I divulge online and how I divulge it.  I am aware at all times that everything I say and do on the web is accessible by virtually everyone in the world.

P.S.  It was pretty funny how that thread cakefarted from vaginas to car talk.  As for the subject and our comments on same, I hope every insecure little female on Earth gets a chance to see those words, and speaking strictly for myself, I don't care if I don't get a royalty check.

We have an entire sticky thread devoted to doing the same thing. I don't think we are in a position to criticize.

You mean poorly scanned and often poorly adjusted images? Phooey. The link above harvested (aggrigated?) an entire thread.

The populationpaste link is the link to the actual image still hosted on the server we're stealing it from. Unless I am missing something...

You're not. I ran into PopPaste a week or so ago, because they had some real nifty images...and also some aggressive anti-leeching scripts. Complaining about this, however, is a little like swiping a muffin from a bakery and getting bent outta shape when the ATM across the street catches you running out of the store.
