>do a thing
>a character from a popular movie or TV show does the same thing
>suddenly, people think you only do that thing because you're trying to copy the character
Does this ever happen to you?
Here are mine:
>enjoy wearing a suit ever since the tenth grade (autistic, sure, but I don't mind)
>How I Met Your Mother becomes popular
>"Haha, user, now I know why you're wearing a suit, it's like Barney from HIMYM. Haha, SUIT UP!"
>be anti-big government and often criticize it
>Parks and Rec becomes popular
>"Haha, you're JUST LIKE Ron Swanson, you even sound the same!"
>like to put a toothpick in my mouth when I'm done eating or drinking
>while Drive never was THAT popular, a lot of my friends saw it on my recommendation
>"user, put that thing away, you can't pull it as well as Ryan Gosling did."
>local theater shows The Big Lebowski on the occasion of the movie's 20th anniversary
>next day, go to a bar and order a White Russian, my personal favorite
>bartender asks me if I saw the Big Lebowski at the theater the day before
I can't fucking stand it.
