[metaphorge]

Many people often seem to become upset when memes they personally hold important or identify with are replicated in what they feel to be an inexact fashion.

Agree, disagree, commentary?

(I feel the wikipedia article on "cultural appropriation" has good things to say on and examples of this subject.)

I agree that people often seem to become upset in this way. I think that it is very rarely worth it, though, and think that when most people do it, they are taking themselves far too seriously.
