Oink hydras, coincidence, and comparison.
Tuesday, October 30th, 2007I’ve always thought the hydra was good torrent metaphor. It’s come up a lot lately.
No one is going to believe this, but I’m being completely honest here, have never committed plagiarism, and take pride in having an occasion original idea per decade. This was one I had early tonight at work, around 7pm:
When I got home, I about double-shit my pants when I saw this eerily similar image on that one site!:
I still can’t believe it. I mean, it’s not the most creative idea I’ve ever had, and I’ll admit to it being a little easy, but god damn. Here’s a detail of mine:
Some interesting things in common or different include mine having one less head, mine only having one pair of headphones all emosmashed on the ground, mine having a huge demon tri-spiked tail, and I can draw cloven hooves. Mine also has no little Dutch flying avenger, but instead has an inactive user.
This is an amazing coincidence, sort of. That other guy’s image (I think) came first, but I’d never seen it, so I’d rate this probably mildly weird.
