    I did this to someone once. Had no idea who he was, then he told me and I admitted the name sounded familiar but I still wasn’t sure, he seemed a bit confused, but overall relieved.

    I didn’t know who Garth Brooks was at the time. I at least knew his name after that. It was a long time ago, I was just an autistic weirdo in a Slipknot shirt.

    Ive straight up asked people who are attractive if they’re famous before and they’re like well I did modeling once but theres no way you’ve seen that. Different fucking breed, they make people ugly and unfashionable where I’m from.

    This reminds me, there’s a national football (not the american one) team that goes to a sports retreat in the same mountain town where my family goes on holiday. So one time we came across one player that was training solo while we were on a walk, and because we don’t really care about football we just went on with our conversation, and the guy looked at us absolutely flabbergasted for a few seconds and then said “hi” and went on his way. Keep in mind we are in Italy, so football players are used to the most thorough fangirling from everyone.
