The Difference Between Allusions and "Thieving"

Today was one of the best days of my life.

Why?

A.) I found out that a lot of my classmates think I'm an awesome artist.

B.) One of my friends sang a song he wrote over summer.

C.) Nothing negative happened.

D.) I got to help with the Seniors' Homecoming float.

E.) I found this blog:

This truly is the best day of my life.

Seriously, what the heck is wrong with people these days? "That is too cliche! That joke was used three years ago by some comedian, not that anyone remembers him or her saying it. That happened in such-and-such movie."

But the best one, which happens to be on this site:

Death on Family Guy looks like Death on South Park.

...

If only you could see how hard I'm laughing right now.

I mean, COME ON!!! A skeleton in a robe with a scythe......................portraying DEATH?!

Why don't you just complain to this guy? http://hurtermonkey.blogspot.com/

I swear he made a career off of "ripping off that character from South Park".

Listen and listen carefully, 'cause if you believe Family Guy really is stealing jokes instead of making allusions to them, AND they're the only ones that do this, you probably won't pick this up right away with your tiny little brain: it's called an allusion!

(Imitating the guy with the Family Guy Steals blog) Duh...Ain't an allusion what a magician does?

No! An allusion is where you make reference to something. It's common on EVERY FRICKIN' SHOW ON EARTH! Billy and Mandy does it, Danny Phantom does it, Kim Possible does it ('cause clearly a creature living in a swampy camp was highly original), SOUTH PARK does it, and so does Family Guy.

Seriously, though...you need a brain transplant if you really thought the South Park version of Death was the original. Or a life.

Now, you think I'm being an idiot? An imbecile? Am I really taking this too far? Well, prove me wrong.

Yeah. You heard me.

I CHALLANGE YOU to prove me wrong if you disagree with me! Make your own show, don't have any cliches or "stolen ideas", and let's see how long your show lasts.

It probably won't even air. After all, you probably wouldn't be able to come up with one in the first place.

S & P Spoiler Alert

Okay, about the next two Scott & Penelope's, I'm going to try and post them on fanfiction.net real soon. There's a link to my fanfiction.net page on this page. (HINT: See where it says "My Fanfictions"?)

Here are a few spoilers so you can get ready for them.

S & P VII: Scott and Penelope steal Grim's scythe when Billy and Mandy go out. I honestly don't want to give much away on this one in particular. I will say this, though: Irwin's back! Now, whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is up to you.

S & P VIII: The supposed "season finale" if you will of S & P. If I do come up with more in the future, I will write more, but for now this is it. Over. Done. Ka-plooey. Of course, that doesn't mean anything. You all remember KP, don't ya?

I will share some things with you to help you get ready for it, but I won't give away TOO much information, 'cause I want most of it to be a surprise.

The fanfic is a crossover between Billy and Mandy, Final Fantasy VI (and VII, 'cause Sephiroth's in it), and Mind Control with Derren Brown. I wasn't originally going to go with FF VI (and VII) as part of it, but I needed a plot, so there ya go.

Basically all you need to know at this point is that the family befriends Derren Brown and a now dead Kefka wants to rule the world again blah blah blah.

So there ya have it. I'll try to get to them as soon as possible.

Maxwell Atoms owns Billy and Mandy, Final Fantasy VI and VII are owned by Square Enix, blah blah blah freakin' blah.

Flies Flies Everywhere...

...And not a moment of sanity to have.

Seriously though, if there's anything that would ever drive me to the brink of insanity, it would be the five or six flies attacking my head when I'm trying to sleep.

School's been doing okay... so far. And there are relatively no flies there, so that's good.

Hopefully I'll be able to keep my honor roll status intact. If not, well... that's life.

*swats away fly* Seriously, these things are getting annoying. I guess that's one of the many drawbacks of living on a farm, huh?

Where Did the Summer Go?

School starts tomorrow for me.

I miss Summer already and it's technically not even over yet for me...
