Do you like it when other people imitate you by using your well-known words and phrases? Or do you hate it when they do that?

Do you take it as a form of flattery, or do you take it as a form of mockery?

    I probably don't notice if they do.

    I guess it hasn't happened to me yet.  I probably don't even know what phrases are uniquely mine yet.  I will holler if I see it though.  LOL

    You would be surprised at my originals that have caught on both Answerbag(and brought here) and here. No, I don't mind.

    Nah, I find it flattering.

    But they usually quote me wrong, and that I do not like

    I am totally with you on that one, JakobA. I can't stand being misquoted either.

    I know some people don't like it, pearl. I don't mind it myself. I'm a bit like JakobA, I find it quite flattering, but like him I don't like being misquoted.

  • Not at all. It's happened before and it never bothers me.
