WORD SAUSAGE: PLAGIABLOG-NON-MENTUS

TODAY'S WORD SAUSAGE; PLAGIA-BLOG-NON-MENTUS
This is an interesting sausage of words, combining the abbreviated form of the word plagiarism , that being the copying of work or ideas of another and passing it off as your own without due credit to the originator, with the word blog.
One initially would be tempted to say one knows exactly what that word BLOG means, however, in the OXFOG DICTIONARY OF RARE AND CREATIVELY COINED USELESS WORDS, the word 'blog' has a far more intricate meaning: BLOG: "Internet outlet for writers who would never be published, staged, nor read, even if their work was given away in public toliet facilities as an aid for inducing defecation.", followed by the Latin, non mentus , meaning 'no thought' and I do not need to explain that familiar experience to bloggers here.
APPLICATION
PLAGIA-BLOG-NON-MENTUS
One only applies this polysyllabic monstrosity when one's blog idea, such as creating new words from combining pre-existing actual words, (to "portmanteau" actually: see footnote), is plagiarised by someone else, on their own blog, without paying heed nor homage to the originator.
Footnote:
Portmanteau:
to combine parts of words (syllables) to make another word connoting the meanings of the two words, originally created by none other than the great Lewis Carroll and celebrated in his fabulous work "Through the Looking-Glass")
Of course, this word is only ever used when the originator feels jealous because the plagiariser has attracted more traffic and comments than the originator of a blog idea.
If this happens to you, you may assuage your annoyed and hurt feelings by applying the "moronic-morass" rule!
That being;
MORONIC-MORASS RULE:
To disregard the success of another, after discovering they have used your idea to greater success and popularity, by imperiously deciding that the plagiariser only attracts an audience of the droolingly dull witted, and thereby reflecting their own vacuous and parlous state of original creative ingenuity.
May you all have a lovely day today!

ALL HAIL LEWIS CARROLL!!!!!!!!
