A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

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.

Mostly lurk, so unlikely. Changing domains when lemm.ee closed down doesn't help, either.

Nothing I hope. I can't imagine I've done or said anything noteworthy enough for this.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 5 months ago

I honestly don't get what you mean. Like you bump into someone in meatspace and they are like. OMG! your hubertmanne. if so no. and eww.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 3 points 5 months ago

I'm like the middle child of a large family. Maybe some people know, most people don't. Those who do know me are like "Yeah, they are great at something."

Hey. Hey you. As your attorney I advise you to buy a pocketknife. Preferably a really strange one.

Magnets

And being an asshole

[–] someacnt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago

I am just some account, not recognizable by definition Or it is just because I lurk a lot, and I am inherently unfunny..

[–] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

sh.it.head, for a lemmy user of a certain vintage, anyway.

Beyond that idk 🤷‍♂️

If I had to guess, if I'm recognized at all it's probably either for my semi-regular nonsense ask lemmy questions or my nipples
