Art style theft

The claim that an art style can be stolen or copied by learning artists to gain attention. Usually claimed by unpopular artists/commentary channels to gain attraction.

Person 1: "That girl stole Sleepkinq's art style! Art style theft!!"
Person 2: "You can't STEAL an art style dude. Beginning artists often take inspiration from things they like and use it as grounds to learn how to draw. Even if they based it off that artist's art style they're creating original pieces with it. Everyone draws different anyway, it's impossible to 100% copy an art style. We're all going to do certain parts differently than other artists. Of course, artists need to branch off and experiment from one art style but it's not like some CRIMINAL thing that you need to be #ISOVERPARTY about."

Grand Theft Auto Style 

When confronted with a problem in real life, you react in a way that you would react playing GTA.

Such as when you are driving on a crowded street and decide to pull onto the sidewalk and plow through anything that happens to be in the way, not caring about scraping other cars, buildings, people etc.

Man, these cars turning left at the light aren't out of the way enough for me to pass and go right. I'm going to say "the hell with it" and Grand Theft Auto style my way through the median strip.
