A forum or question/answer site user (often a moderator) who replies to questions by quickly Googling something that sounds relevant and simply copy/pasting it into his/her reply. Often never understanding or even fully reading the original post at all. A Copy Paste Hero never posts the correct answer, as the person asking the question has obviously already Googled everything that can be instantly found on the subject.
Original Poster: How do I change the Windows mouse pointer's color?
Copy Paste Hero: Below are the steps on how to change the Microsoft Windows mouse cursor. It is important to realize that some programs may use their own mouse cursors and that following the below steps will only change the Windows cursors and not the cursors used in third-party programs or games.
1 Open the Control Panel.
2 In the Control Panel double-click the Mouse icon.
3 In the Mouse Properties click the Pointers tab.
4 In Pointers click the down arrow on the Scheme and select another cursor scheme you wish to use.
In addition to changing the scheme you can individually change each cursor by double-clicking each of the cursors and selecting the new cursor you wish to use. If you individually change each cursor or modify a scheme with new cursors we suggest saving the scheme as a new scheme.
I hope that helped.
(Note the Copy Paste Hero did not even read the question properly as the Original Poster asked how to change the COLOR, which was completely missed or ignored in the reply.)

Similar to games such as The Game, Copy/Paste is a game to be had at random times with friends and such.
What happens is one person may say something, and another may say "copy" to copy a certain length of sentence from the other person. The person must make eye contact or point at designated target to copy from that person. The victim may then be 'pasted' on which the person who copied would look at that person by pointing or eye contact, and say "paste". The victim would then have to repeat that length of sentence on request of the copier.
However, some rules still apply.
-A person may only have one copy per person.
-If a person says "cut" intentionally at the end of their sentence, no other person may "copy" that persons sentence.
-If a victim cannot remember their copy, the copier must re-inform them of what it was. This cannot be copied.
Have fun.

I look around the 'net for some CSS, exploit it to my own limit and use it to make people say 'how did you make that!?'

(roblox) Copy and pastes are girls that play games like Ragdoll Engine, Animations and Dancing mocap etc. They wear at least two hairs at a time and most people refer to the hairs as a "Birdsnest". A lot of copy n pastes can be quite rude but not all of them are. Also some copy n pastes online date, and the people they date are called "Slenders" and are very tall.

to "copy" text and "paste" it
- used to avoiding repeative typing
- to avoid "writing"
note: if proceeding with copy and paste, please read it and make enough changes to call it your own

A stupid game where when someone says something that could be seen as innappropriate another player says "copy" and then when they say "paste" the person must repeat the phrase in whatever context the copier would like. However, a person may say "delete" to stop from being copied.
Bob: I'm gonna punch you in the face!
Danny: Copy
Grandma: Hi Bobby
Danny: Paste
Bob: I'm gonna punch you in the face!
