This is eerily similar to the infamous "You made this?...I made this" comic.

Apparently historically accurate.

Also the irony of responding with an uploaded video of a copyrighted show owned by a major studio is delicious. :)

If anyone hasn't seen it, I believe this is the one you're referring to: http://i.imgur.com/snLplqq.jpg
Link to the original and not some reupload to imgur: http://nedroidcomics.tumblr.com/post/41879001445/the-interne... :)
I think linking to a re-upload is weirdly in spirit with the comic's sentiment.

Though I never quite understood which interpretation was intended:

* Creator shows their work to someone, who goes on claiming it's their own work.

* Someone shows "their work" to the original creator, who then realizes it's actually their work.

I never even considered the second interpretation, which now seems even more appropriate than the first.

I only hope the original author is aware and supportive of the meta-sentiment of the re-upload/re-whitemark response.
