It is the worst offense for a writer. Writers have only their words and their imagination to make a living. It's intangible, which is perhaps why it seems like not such a bad thing. To take those words and pass them off as original is stealing. It is stealing the livelihood of the writer.
An interesting question, for even the greatest writers have penned how no idea is actually original-- according to most great writers, there is acknowledgment that there are no original ideas, but rather, we as writers build upon shared ideas-what we bear witness to in the human experience.
Obviously there is a difference between penning exact words versus sharing common experience. The difference between plagiarism and "original" idea is how one expresses common ground and how one copies actual words.
One's experience of the common experience is still personal. To avoid plagiarism, one expresses authentically from the personal place the common experience. Plagiarism is about taking the personal interpretation of common experience as one's own, where that is false.
Imagine it like a baby or your car you just finish building all your creativity in it trying to be different and then bang someone copies you and become famous with your idea your baby..
