Can I have 15 years in stead? Better make that 50, starting a decade ago.

Idk, I think being a viking in the modern day would make you pretty hard to miss

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Not really, since I'm only a viking in the colloquial sense of living in Scandinavia and so are everyone around me 😁

I've always wanted to visit! I have a significant amount of Scandinavian DNA

Well if you're ever in Aarhus (second-biggest city in Denmark), let me know and I can lovingly slander the other two Scandinavian countries over coffee or beer 😁

I'll definitely take you up on that if I ever find myself in your section of the world!

Andy Warhol said "everyone gets 15 minutes of fame" this is the opposite of that.

We haven't been alone since 2013 man, we've all had agents assigned to us. In the future, we'll be glad to have 15 minutes of anonymity!

@[email protected] recognition is what people want right now

(I don't believe this, I'm just explaining my interpretation of the graffiti)

I wish the FBI agent having to surveil me a happy holidays and a happy new year!

raise your hand if you've ever had 15 minutes of fame. And tell us about those 15 minutes of fame you had.

Does "made a meme and got a bunch of upvotes, but had the meme reposted across Discord then back to Reddit AND Lemmy" count as 15 minutes of fame?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

sure, accept that fame!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Whoa that's legit.

Might have been more apt if they'd written "recognised", instead.
