Yeah Marco, I completely agree.
I can't stand bandwagon humor either. People that see someone else is getting the attention, then they take whatever that thing was that got the other person attention and try to modify it slightly then regurgitate it.
I HATE THAT
It happens with posting too. You have some really clever or thoughtful post and people decide "hey since blue went over so well I'll start this blue green conversation over here and they'll tell me how bright and good I am just like they told that person". But they never tell you that do they bandwagoners?... its because you're not! Come up with your own stuff, for crying out loud... stop living in other people's limelight. Figure out what makes you you and then milk that, develop it. You have great ideas, you don't have to ride other people's coat tails.
Do you want to be remembered as "the guy that was kind of like that other guy, just not quite as good"?
I get REALLY embarrassed for people in party/public situations that regurgitate jokes or ride on joke coat tails. You've seen it... the crowd that laughs genuinely at someone's something and then the sad follower wanna be that follows up with the rehash only to get politely giggled at and then all the uncomfortable and annoyed people disperse for "drinks" or to go to the bathroom... really just to get away from wannabe.
