When the photocopier runs out of ink

A remark made after a counterfeit or fake item, that was falsely being presented as an original, is exposed, typically due to the discovery of the original, followed by a visual comparison of the two. The phrase can also used without the appearance of the original item, in situations where the imitation item malfunctions or breaks in a manner that would not be seen in the original.

Guy #1: Did you see Doeshii's alligator album cover getting exposed for just being a copy of Shah's alligator album cover, with the only difference being she used an albino alligator?

Guy#2: Yes I saw! You know thats what happens when the photocopier runs out of ink!

eclipsed by the cute puppy photo

A euphemism for any online discussion which seemed relevant and important at the time, but has now become buried in the noise of other discussions and is now mostly forgotten.

"Did we ever decide which format to go with for those new TPS reports?" "Not really, I think that got eclipsed by the cute puppy photo."
