Jason Priestly is my nemesis

Do we have a nemesis?

He is not actually my nemesis (Mr Preistly), but he is the nemesis of somebody who works at lovemoney.com - Richard.  In truth, I never believed that Mr Priestly was truly aware that he was playing an active role in being the nemesis to the aforementioned workmate. Yet as I explored the evidence, it became crystal-fuzzy that he was an actual nemesis. The real thing, an opposite who could not exist without seeking divine retribution against their polar opposite.

And so this brings me to www.beatthatquote.com. It appears that they are our nemesis, no matter how hard we try to concentrate on ourselves; it becomes evident that this goal can not be achieved. Beat That Quote want our soul and they will not rest until they have it.

So, like the irrefutable evidence in the Jason Priestly/Richard saga, here are the clear facts that demonstrate that beatthatquote are intent on donning the lovemoney.com garbs, and impersonating our business.  

1.       They started in the best possible way, they wanted our people! I will not guess how many employees they have made illegal out of transfer window approaches to, but it could be as high as two thousand (this number may or may not be entirely accurate). On one occasion they actually took someone to their office, imprisoning her for seven months of purgatory, before she made her getaway.     

2.       Not content with our employees, they then started re-publishing our content, whisking our ideas away in the dead of night; leaving us with empty minds and puzzled looks to just how regularly written coincidence would strike...

We published "How to survive until pay day". They responded with "12 ways to survive until pay day", 10 days later.

We published "Beware these 19 credit card tricks", they responded with "9 of the craftiest credit card tricks exposed" 12 days later.

We published "live a life of luxury on a budget", and then just 5 days later we got "35 ways to enjoy a little luxury for less".

Nemesis or ESP. You decide.

3.       So, after people and ideas, what did our nemesis want next? Well, they wanted our customers! People who were searching for us on Google, the worlds most popular search engine! If you search for lovemoney.com, beat that quote have kindly built a page explaining who we are for us, and then they extol the virtues of going to their site ahead of ours? Is there no end to this ravishing hunger they have for everything lovemoney.com?

Go ahead and search for "lovemoney.com" on Google. This is the page you get on BTQ.    

So how did we propose to solve this dilemma? We did the only thing we could, we contacted Jason Priestly on the set of his upcoming blockbuster, "Stingy Jack".

Mr Priestly first of all set us straight on the spelling of his name, Priestley, rather than Priestly. He then told us the secret to dealing with a nemesis. He asked that he was not quoted directly on this topic because of his ongoing litigation with Richard, but the general gist of what he said was something about imitation being flattery, and that we can all live together, and perhaps something about "peace on earth". It seemingly made sense though, and so we have decided to learn to live with our nemesis, not to complain or moan, but simply to appreciate that they love us for who we are.

Jason & Richard continue to work on their nemetical issues.
