Here is my official guess on what’s going to happen next year:

Izzie is dead.
TR Knight will leave the show, but George will not. Why else do you think his face gets all mangled? McSteamy will reconstruct his face and it will be another actor.

ta da. you heard it here first.

hahahaha Grammar Queen liveth! (And mercifully, does not turn her eye to any of my prose.)

Gotcha has made the following grammar errors:

“. . . not led others to believe it is your work”
should be: “not *lead* others to believe . . . ”

“. . . to see your consious got the best of you. ”
should be: “. . . to see your *conscience* got . . . ”

“Whether you agree is insignificant, the laws are the laws whether you are blogging or writing a book.”
should be: “Whether you agree is insignificant; the laws are the laws whether you are blogging or writing a book.”
or: “Whether you agree is insignificant. The laws are the laws whether you are blogging or writing a book.”

I would add that it’s a questionable use of the word “insignificant,” but I suppose not entirely wrong. And I will give points for the proper use of “it’s” rather than “its”

But altogether, I cannot give credence to the opinion of one who cannot properly form a sentence. Therefore, I hold that Dawn is the more credible of the witnesses here, and thus find that she gave credit to the other post in her original post. I further find that Gotcha is not credible; and there *is* a problem with his/her reading comprehension.

See? There is a time and a place for the grammar queen!

The thing that bothered me is that the George thing was clearly a rip-off from ER . . . you know, how they killed off the Omar Epps character.

Tell me you know what I’m talking about . . .

(mangled body from “incident” with the L lying on hospital bed)
“Somebody page Gant!”
“I did.”
(mangled body starts beeping)
“It’s Gant!”

Ah! Gotcha clearly didn’t get anything. Since comments indicate your writing was read and digested, I say mission accomplished. Great job, Dawn!

Gotchya is an idiot. And he can’t read.

Your writing is a million times better than this guy’s anyway. You’d have no reason to pass his off as yours other than blog suicide.

Dude, I did not “revise” the original post. The original post is exactly as it’s been ever since I hit publish. In fact, the second sentence of the post says that “I was actually surprised by the twists” whereas the author of the piece I quoted said s/he saw it coming, so how on earth could I have been trying to pass it off as my own work?

My reading comprehension is just fine thank you, and so is my memory. Revising the original post is the right thing to do, glad to see your consious got the best of you. Plagiarism is still plagiarism no matter how one tries to justify it. Whether you agree is insignificant, the laws are the laws whether you are blogging or writing a book. I would say shame on you and your minister, but it’s obvious you don’t have one.

Dear Gotcha,

I quite plainly stated I would write my own grey’s review when I decided on some personal stuff “Until then, I agree with 89.5 percent of what this author wrote. Crazy mad spoilers follow.”
Then I provided a link to the article and the text. These are the accepted blogosphere credit giving norms. So especially since I only agreed with eighty-nine percent of what “that author wrote” I can’t imagine how you got confused. So shame on *you*. Or your reading comp teacher.

You should really give others credit for what they write and not led others to believe it is your work. Otherwise, I just read this exact post in another article not 3 hours ago. Shame on you.
