Short of "copy and paste". Used usually as deragotry terms for plagiarism and shortcut. And much often also being used as an excuse for a stupid mistakes which in no circumstances at all deserves any.
'This is a COPAS work! I can do this my self in 3 minutes! Why should I pay your salary if this is the best you can do!" (actual quote from Indonesia's past vice president)
Lecturer Assistant: "It seems that I am very familiar with your work paper here."
University Student: "Well.. actually much of it is a COPAS work from your past dissertation."
A: "Dude! the number in this excel sheet doesn't add up! How come 100 and 30 became 500?"
B: "it's COPAS mistake, I'll fix it shortly."
Sorry.. this is a COPAS from BBC, but the story is very interesting!

Get the copics mug.Literally translated to "Copy Cat".
Origins derive to a post about the 9 lives of a cat coming from a glitch where the next life of the cat would manifest itself during the current life of the cat.
The post states that when the future life of the cat comes into contact with the current life of the cat they will both start to stare at each other becoming very tense and riled up. If not seperated the cats will have a fight to the death causing the cat to lose its life.
CopiaCattus is the name described to the "copy cat", or the other "life" of the cat.

Another event of copiacattus has occurred, we have seperated the cats and even while seperated they both are very tense. Even while out of sight from each other both cats will react to having something done to one of them.
We are running experiments on the CopiaCattus to see how they are possibly Neurologically linked to be able to feel each others pain.
