some of the finest
chink characteristic's of the peasant kind came to the fore in the latest intellectual property infringment - involving starbucks and a peopre's lepubrik coffee shop; replete with exact same name:
1. blatant opportunism
2. blatant copycating
3. no fucking sense of ethics and moral's
i tell ye, it's all in their dna 'cos their wee island brethren also display exact same mentality. like for instance, wee store's and fly-by-night opportunist's selling crystalled "jewelleries" are dime a dozen over ere. and just because it's one profitable and quick dosh-making venture - that any amoeba can pick up [read: blatantly copy] from those dime a dozen how-to-make book's from Taiwan [read: in chinese].
besides, if the next-door competitor sells a range of necklaces at 25 quid each, the new set-up will sell exact same copies at 20 quid each. and guess who would make more sales?
and what's more gallin is these copycat's calling emselves "entreprenuers". i'm sure somethin was lost in translation.
anyhoo, is it of any wonder then how come all of em [ok, 99.9%] look exactly the same? it all boils down to [copycat] genetics innit?
ouch.
