+--- Thread: My job is really weird sometimes... (/showthread.php?tid=214)
RE: My job is really weird sometimes... - Drunk Monk - 02-01-2021
And then there's one of those moments when I'm web researching a Chinese phrase trying to find the original Chinese characters. There's a trick to it. I plug in the phrase and I have one of the characters and go from there.
And what comes up?
Two of my own articles. They both had versions of the phrase but no Chinese.
I think I found it eventually. I'm having it double checked because the translation doesn't sound quite right.

You could just cite yourself. You are an expert, after all.

It was the Chinese characters that I was looking for. I found them eventually.
Reminds me of when so aspiring plagiarists submitted versions of my own articles to me. Talk about a poorly playeed poaching attempt.

I'm putting together an article that recommends martial arts films that are kid friendly so I surfed the web a bit to see what others have said.
https://www.commonsensemedia.org/lists/martial-arts-movies-for-kids listed Kill Bill v.1
I saw another one (that I can't find now) that listed Billy Jack.
srsly? Did these writers even watch those films?
