Concept plagiarism

Term invented by writers to devalue the work of other writers they don't like, by claiming they copied their feelings or writing subjects. The use of this term is especially common on social media communities with a large amount of amateur, self-publishing writers that are incapable of creating an original concept.
Seeing as Betty wrote a poem about a blooming flower as a simile for love just hours after I wrote mine. We really should band together to call her out on concept plagiarism.

Brer Fox plagiarism

Refers to a bombastic loudmouth's blatantly taking credit for an idea or realization that everyone else present at the time knows was thought of by someone else. It originates from the most famous of all the "Uncle Remus" tales --- Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby --- and comes from the infamous (and hilarious) dialogue between the brashly-conceited Brer Fox and the two other animals who were present at the time --- Brer Bear and Bter Rabbit --- whereby anytime a good idea is.suggested, Brer Fox boldly announces that said idea was his own: "I sure am glad that **I** thought of THAT!"
Perhaps the tar-embedded Brer Rabbit could have used another method to avoid his demise at the hands --- er, **paws** --- of his venomous-hearted crimson-canine nemesis by insisting on "postponing operations pending litigation", and then suing his savage russet-coated adversary for "Brer Fox plagiarism" when said cocky character braggingly took credit for Brer Rabbit's idea about "flinging him in da briar patch". Plus of course, once they were in court, Brer Rabbit could have also asked the judge to lock up Brer Fox (and possibly Brer Bear, as well, as a conspirator in crime) for his ongoing attempts to eliminate Brer Rabbit, and for his constant threatening and harassment of "a poor helpless harmless fluffy little bunny like me".
