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

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Not really, since I'm only a viking in the colloquial sense of living in Scandinavia and so are everyone around me ๐Ÿ˜

[-] TheRealLinga@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

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

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

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 ๐Ÿ˜

[-] TheRealLinga@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

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

[-] asteriskeverything@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

I'm 15 again cuz this is deep

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 9 points 6 months ago

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

[-] Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 6 months ago

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?

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

sure, accept that fame!

[-] pomodoro_longbreak@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Whoa that's legit.

[-] cactus_head@programming.dev 9 points 6 months ago

I don't get, someone explain it to my dumbass

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 35 points 6 months ago

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!

@doleo@kbin.social recognition is what people want right now

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

[-] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 months ago

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

[-] frozencat@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 months ago

funni penguin man on top

[-] doleo@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

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

[-] Rivalarrival 1 points 6 months ago

I can think of some very productive activities I could perform with 15 minutes of total anonymity.
