Shadowed.
I think I have serious problems (ok, that's a fact) and I'll try to explain them now:
I like when people like stuff I make or do. And, eventually, when people like things you do, they start doing things like you. And that's when I start to freak out.
You can ask me why should I freak out, mainly 'coz I have a band and the tendencies for the next season is this thing increasing. Ok, I answer: 'coz there's a THIN LINE between "likers with personality" and "copycats with no creativity". The first ones I respect. The second ones just fuckin' make me angry or bored to death. Or both.
Good lord, I've always loved a lot of musicians, artists, etc. I've got 'stuff' from them 'coz I liked them. Ex: I've dyed my hair red because two of my favorite artists. BUT - yes, there is a but - I was sure that it wouldn't screw me up, or make me look like a whore or something. It was an influence, but I'd adjusted it to my personality. I wanted to BE LIKE them in some aspects. I didn't want to BE THEM.
So, back to the first lines, I HATE when I realize someone is copying another someone. Like imitating every fucking thing the other person do or says. It sux, pisses me off.
If you know someone that acts like this, please tell him/her two things:
- Most of people doesn't like to have another shadow and
- GET A LIFE.
