Hay gloria para todos

Por desgracia, eso de que el crédito se lo lleve otro no es tan raro.

Es bastante normal que la "ley de X" la descubriera en realidad Y, con la ayuda de Z, a la vez que W (que trabajó por su cuenta en Rusia).

Aquí unos cuantos ejemplos. Hay incluso una "ley" de la historia de la ciencia que dice que eso es lo que pasa siempre. No he podido encontrar el nombre de la ley, pero es igual, porque de ser cierta, el crédito debería ser para otra persona. :-)

Haggis: Our vocation is a thing we love, a thing we'd never shirk.


Haggis: We'll fight you in the harbor.
Bill: We'll battle you on land.
Edward: But when you meet singing pirates...
Guybrush: They'll be more than you can stand.


Bill: Ooooh! That was a good one!

Haggis: We´re ready to set sail, through the cannons need a priming.


Edward: We're troublesome corsairs!
Bill: And we've come to steal your treasures!
Haggis: We would shoot you on the downbeat...
Edward: ...but we have to rest five measures.


All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!


Guybrush: Stop! Stop! Stop!
Bill: The brass is what we'll polish and the deck is what we'll mop.


Guybrush: You say you're nasty pirates...
Guybrush: ...scheming, thieving, bad bushwhackers?
Guybrush: From what I've seen I tell you...
Guybrush: ...you're not pirates! You're just slackers!


All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!


Guybrush: We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange.
Haggis: And...!
Haggis: ...um...
Bill: Well...
Edward: ...err...
Bill: Door hinge?
Edward: No, no...
Bill: Guess the song's over, then.
Haggis: Guess so.
Edward: Okay, back to work.
Guybrush: Well gee. I feel a little guilty, now.


Tendré que hacermelo algún día...
