Conversational Plagarism

When someone says something that you have previously said and tries to pass it off as their own. You either hear about it from whoever they said it to or you overhear them saying it. Can be extremely irritating, especially if you're the sort of person who dislikes making a scene and doesn't want to call them on it.

Tom: Did you know that (insert interesting fact here)?
Dick: Wow, really? That's so interesting...

LATER

Harry: Did you know that (insert same interesting fact here)
Tom: Yeah, did I tell you that?
Harry: No, Dick did. He's so interesting.
Tom: MOTHERFUCKER!! That's conversational plagarism right there...

Presentational Plagarism

Stealing ideas or pictures for one's presentation without giving credit to the original source. The same as plagarism, but doing it in a presentation.

When he cited zero his sources in his speech, he committed presentational plagarism.

plaqerium

Helmet description of plagiarism. Often used in relevance towards copying more than just the ideas of other people's work, enough to write a really good piece, but not copying people's work so much so that one can get caught for plagiarism. Very clever and resourceful approach.

Bro, I'm peeking about plaqerium in my essay on Scooby Doo and his relevance to society. Scared I might get snapped.

playgerism

The act of shamelessly participating in an unethical/selfish "game" of unfairly benefiting from someone else's creative wordplay ideas, whereby you vote to reject an Urban Dictionary submission that you jealously view as extra-clever/humorous, and then you yourself submit that very same definition in your own name, as if it was you who thought up the word-idea.

I submitted a word to UD and had it rejected, yet a few days later it appeared in very similar form --- sure sounds like playgerism to me!

pagerism

When one references a news or science article they didn't actually read, but rather saw only the title and first couple lines of the article on Facebook or a similar website.

1: "Hey, I read this really interesting article about the school to prison pipeline the other day?"
2: "Did you actually read it though, or did you just see someone post it on Facebook?"
1: "...yeah one of my friends posted it. Sorry, that's pagerism."

online playerizm

A geek practice. Used by those who think that engagin in stupid cybersex sessions and coralling internet hoes is "the way of the playa".

In reality, you don't know whether that's a celebirty of some dude's fat 43 year old uncle on the other side of the web, stupid.
