Plagiarism
Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.Plagiarism is considered academic dishonesty and a breach of journalistic ethics. It is subject to
sanctions like penalties, suspension, and even expulsion. Recently, cases of 'extreme plagiarism' have been identified in
academia. The modern concept of
plagiarism as immoral and originality as an ideal emerged in Europe in the 18th century, particularly with the Romantic movement.Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute
copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Plagiarism and copyright infringement overlap to a considerable extent, but they are not equivalent concepts, and many types of plagiarism do not constitute copyright infringement, which is defined by copyright law and may be adjudicated by courts. Plagiarism is not defined or punished by law, but rather by institutions (including professional associations, educational institutions, and commercial entities, such as publishing companies).

Intellectual
copyright theft of the worst kind, or passing off; a ripe
forgery in the literary sphere; taking something one took the time and trouble to write out again in a slightly different form and claiming it as one’s own
inimitable work as coming from the sweat of one’s
brow, and so then, in some vital respect, it must be one’s own work, if only because if one took the time and trouble to do it again in a slightly different way then it must be one’s own intellectual copyright material to do with as one wishes, and so legally, in consequence, it is therefore still intellectual theft from its original owner, and decidedly so also, but then becomes serious only if it is found out.
Example:
It was not that the author disagreed with what was written one
jot, as he has written it himself, it was that someone else had taken it and published it in his own name, which was
plagiarism of the worst kind, and especially so since its original author had not been paid
a penny for it either.

using other peoples ideas as your own, that all teachers and professors teach is horribly wrong, is never acceptable in the real world/workplace, and they will fail you for it. yet when it comes time for them to give you your weekly and/or daily metric-Fuck-ton of
home work its all bullshit they copied from some other teacher or book so they don't have to do shit but can still
fuck your life up,
contradicting themselves in the process.
Example:
"Billy you
copied this answer
from the internet that is
plagiarism and it is unacceptable! I have no choice but to give you an f on this assignment." "but I copied those answers from the same website that you copied the questions from so I only did what you taught me to do" "too bad Billy I'm the teacher and I gut to decide how bad I want to fuck your life up and I choose to make you wish to die"

To have sex with
a Book,
Article, or the Internet, and therefore reproducing its words but with your
last name.
Example:
Plagiarism involves 5 key Stages:
Stage 1: John is assigned a term paper.
Stage 2: John goes to the Library.
Stage 3: John "Checks Out" a book.
Stage 4: John "Reads Between the Lines".
Stage 5: A few paper cuts later… His paper is written.
To sum it all up…
One night of fun equals a finished paper.
