riddle - If you only have half of me, then I am of no use



People think a part of me is sticky, but I'm not.
I do have a sticky friend though.


I can create almost anything,
but I'm not very creative.


After I have done my thing, you can't tell that I did it.
To be honest, it wasn't my creation to begin with.




What am I?

Answer



You are:



Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V (Copy and Paste)



If you only have half of me, then I am no use



Why copy something if you can't paste it? And you can't paste something without a copy




People think a part of me is sticky, but I'm not



Copy doesn't do anything on itself.



I do have a sticky friend though



Copy is best friends with Paste.



I can create almost everything




You can copy pretty much all text



But I'm not very creative



But copy doesn't generate anything by itself



After I have done my thing, you can't tell that I did it



You can't distinguish between copied text and the original




To be honest, it wasn't my creation to begin with



Of course it wasn't. It's a copy!



Hint:



It's a copy of the original
