I was very confused until I realized a comment I read was from someone with my username, but registered to a different Lemmy instance. By identifies, I mean the username is highlighted and the blue avatar indicating it's me is present. Also, this doesn't feel like the best place to report bugs, is there a better way?

Are you by any chance an importer?

[โ€“] outbound5231 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I misread that as imposter, which made sense to me for a moment.

[โ€“] SaakoPaahtaa 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah shouldve gone with "imposter/exporter" goddamnit

I think your downvoters either never watched Seinfeld, or hate it with a passion. ยฏ\_ (ใƒ„) _/ยฏ

Nah its a normal lemmy thing, all my comments get downvoted almost instantly :D

[โ€“] MyDearWatson616 5 points 1 year ago

I'm sorry, I had to. Feel free to return the favor.

Or... An imposter?

Architect, marine biologist, or importer/exporter? Aren't you glad you chose that username, now that you've heard that joke about 9 billion times by now?

[โ€“] Tangent5280 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hey whats the joke, for those of us who haven't seen it yet?

George Castanza is a short, bald man that lives with his parents. He is insecure. To impress women, he often says he's either a marine biologist, an importer/exporter, or an architect. He usually gets caught in a lie. In order to continue to convince someone he'll go into further detail with a bit about his name is Art Vandaley from Vandalay Industries. He even had one of his friends answer the phone as such for some reason, don't remember. Some lie about trying to establish a good reputation for a job or something, or trying to get promoted when working for the Yankees baseball team. Was a long time ago; I watched the originals when they were new (yes I am old). So I probably didn't get all the details exactly right. I'm sure others with better memories than I will correct me. It was the funniest television of its time. Newer generation usually isn't into stuff their parents (or even grandparents) watched, which is understandable.

Hey, thanks for the explanation. It seems like the 90s string of sitcoms, certainly has the makings of one from that era.

Fixed for the next release.

Honestly, I don't care what you even wrote...

I see Seinfeld reference, I upvote.
