We’re a small tight knit community. We see the same names everywhere. I’m sure many of you have been recognised by strangers before.
What is your claim to Lemmy fame.
(Question inspired by, https://lemmy.world/comment/19964547)
If anything, probably extreme pedantry
Around here, that’s the opposite of standing out, LOL!
Playing dumb. Joke’s on them, I’m only playing 3/4 of the time.
The kind of reply that makes me want to check the modlog with your name lol. I bet theres smth juicy there
I didn’t realize I was in an autism community once and couldn’t understand why they couldn’t understand the subtext of my comment. (Playfully jabbing back and forth with friends) Not much, otherwise, unfortunately.
I make a new account every thousand comments or so specifically because I don’t want internet fame. But if I didn’t, I’d probably be recognized as that guy who says what he thinks even when he knows it won’t be popular. Then again, I filter content so aggressively to avoid threads where I’d be tempted to share those unpopular opinions that maybe I wouldn’t get recognized that much after all.
I tend to keep a lot of opinions to myself and especially avoid charged threads too. But I just want to say you’re recognized and your opinions are appreciated. You debate thoughtfully and respectfully. We need more of yous on here.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
…and abandon ship I guess?
My hope is that I don’t get recognised, but in the past I was known for making long posts. So, maybe that?
We are here to discuss ideas, not people. That said, I do recognise a few accounts.
Hey. Hey you. As your attorney I advise you to buy a pocketknife. Preferably a really strange one.
I correct grammar mistakes
I get recognized a lot because of my huge wang. That and my humility, I’d say.
Pics or it didn’t happen
I’m not sure how to photograph humility.
No need to be humble, I’m sure you could do it
I talk about Marxism-Leninism a lot, that’s about it.
I don’t. And I like it that way.
You actually are, I recognize your username
I mostly lurk, just like how I’m primarily scrolling through this thread to see if the 21-23 year old virgin who’s looking for a 30 year old girlfriend is in here.
Scuse me?!?!?
So there’s this one user who had posted about a story idea they had wanting to know how old the protagonist is. Someone replied that looking at his post history, they would guess 21-23. So I clicked the dude’s name and man, what a crazy ride. Like 80% of his posts were either about what people thought about someone in their 30s dating someone who was 21-23 (and stated in one that of course if the older person were in their 40s-50s dating a 21-23 they should be killed) or how it was impossible for a 21-23 year old to ever have sex because women didn’t want someone with no experience. I always forget his name and his posts have branched out more, but I’ll be reading something that feels slightly unhinged and then someone in the comments will make a 21-23 year old reference and I realize who I’m reading. It’s like Where’s Waldo, the text-based version.
Their name is Grimreaper and their latest post is complaining that AI didn’t give them the answer they were looking for in response to their wild fantasy about Superman’s son dating someone ten years older and becoming a superhero to avenge them
After I posted this comment, that post was the very next one in my feed. When I saw the age bit, I thought “No way.” Yes way.
Frequent commenting i assume
Fucking sharks mostly
Fucking our sharks, you mean.
The people’s sharks
You I remember bc we’ve talked in traditional art.
On time someone said they enjoyed my posts after I commented on something unrelated and I lowkey stopped posting for like 2 months because the idea that someone perceived me as a poster weighed on me.
Anyway yeah, love the art 😘
The more the merrier on Lemmy mate. Post and comment all you want
Probably for being an overly opinionated dick.
That’s how I think of you. Although I don’t think of you. But I recognize you!
I dunno, no one’s told me yet.
I don’t think I get recognized, but I’ve had a handful of people say that they like the way I write, so maybe I have a group of dedicated followers somewhere.
Funnily enough, I just earlier messaged some random lemming that I had tagged for a while as “this guy seems cool” to let him know that. I figure everyone likes to get a little compliment like that from a stranger now and then. Just some random dude whose username kind of stood out to me and I noticed every time it popped up he seemed like a nice guy. So some of you are probably out there like him being recognized for just being a decent person.
