Fame...

I feel kind of internet-famous right now.

I was casually trawling through a sub-section of a newspaper website when I came upon something that made me pause and then get vaguely paranoid.

In 2007 (nearly 2 years ago), I was a big LiveJournal user and I posted this to my LJ (and never locked it, I might add!). It was a jokey thing, obviously, but I thought the ideas that The Veronicas had evolved from an earlier Australian sister-group called S2S had merit.

As did someone else around the same time, who was clearly a bit confused, but at least not passing off the idea as theirs!

Anyway, so this morning through The Vine, I found a post by someone called SineadMcFly saying basically the same thing I had on my LJ, minus my second step of Jackson Mendoza.

Yeah, it's not a big stretch of the imagination to decide the two (or three) are similar, but I think saying they're the same thing (as I did) is a wee bit suspicious.

I even googled "s2s is the veronicas" out of paranoia and found I was the first and only entry!

So tell me, does this make me internet famous; you know, with my half-baked ideas being STOLEN and passed off as someone else's work a la you thought we wouldn't notice? If so, it was a lot easier than I thought!
