While we recognize that matters of greater substance are transpiring in the world, Bostonist just can't get over the Opal Mehta plagiarism story. Perhaps it's because we're bitter, mediocre writers (we can hear you saying, "Yeah. That's it."). Perhaps it's because we feel a natural, class-based animosity toward people with lots of money who pay fancy consultants to get them into fancy colleges (not a fair reason to dislike people, we realize). But whatever the case, the story just gets better and better (book deal cancelled, other works plagiarized, etc.). We don't actually have that much to add at the moment, but we wanted to make sure we were the first to use the bad pun in our headline, because it is an awesome bad pun.
