I suspect it's not the first time. It's a great story.

The current submission is also just a heavily plagiarized rehashing of that part of David Lee Roth's autobiography, as (properly) quoted by Snopes.

It's not plagiarism if it's attributed.

(edit: looks like the submission url was edited. I guess it wasn't snopes earlier.)
