Saw two people yesterday arguing about the flashlight picture on twitter. Person one accused person two of stealing the picture from them. Person two swore that they found the picture on tumblr, and therefore didn’t steal it from anybody. Person one said that they also found the picture on tumblr, and posted it on twitter hours before person two, that’s why they deserved full credit. Neither of them seemed to even comprehend the possibility of giving credit to you. It was surreal.

It’s kind of a bummer! But that’s the internet I guess.
