I don’t give a fuck about being remembered. I just wanna enjoy my time while I’m here.
So far, it’s not going great.
Have you considered eating a great work of art to pass the time?
Doesn’t sound very enjoyable tbh
I got two ads for Dominos before that video played. I’m not sure I consider that fine art.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
You should try it before you criticize.
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
That’s a very cruxy fuxy attitude.

It pains me that I probably never do something so important that I will be remembered.
On there other hand, who was the right hand of Napoleon? Who decided the great pyramid should be build exactly there? What was the name of the guy who put the last stone in the Chinese wall? (Figurative speaking)
So to be remembered you need:
- do “great things” (not great specifically… You know what I mean)
- be the number one (second places don’t count)
- make such a major impact on the world that even after your society has collapsed, people still remember you.
So the chances that I am in a position to do this would require some massive effort and even then, chances are slim…
When I started typing this reply I was a bit depressed. Now I am finished it just highlights the importance of enjoying oneself while it lasts.
I would be concerned if napoleon’s right hand didn’t belong to him
Honestly it doesn’t even matter if you do an incredible thing, you’ll still be forgotten. Even somebody like Einstein will eventually be forgotten. Like what’s the name of the first person to make fire? And sure you can argue that we didn’t keep records back then like we do now right? Ok so whats the name of the first person to keep records?
Like what’s the name of the first person to make fire?
I’m pretty sure it’s Steve.
Actually, it was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.
/s
Why not Adam, Adam, Steve and Eve and baby we got a stew going?
Adam and Steve sounds like the gay version of the bible
If you’re #2 it helps to have a cool name. Otherwise I don’t think I’d know Buzz Aldrin.
Set your own goals, I’m in awe of people who’ve done magnificent things just for themselves.
Mostly agree, but the right hand of Napoleon (and other “helpers” of the famous) is well remembered, just not by everybody.
I have a training on mgmt. in a few weeks, and we are reading a case study on him, with a lot of names thrown around, including e.g. Berthier, his chief of staff.
I’m just saying that you don’t have to be the one in the spotlight to make an impact, and be remembered - maybe it’s even better to stay in the shadows and only be remembered by those who actually know the topic, and truly appreciate your work.
I want the peace of never having existed in the first place. So, being entirely forgotten is a second best kind of peace. Best one can get now.
There was a guy in ancient Greece that burned down a famous temple for exactly that reason.
Never heard of him.
Fucking Greg.
There was a third guy on the first mission to the moon.
Michael Collins was the pilot, yes.
Yes. Even if you eat the Mona Lisa. The heat death gets everything in the end. Sorry, bubz.
Eh, what good does it do to have strangers know my name? That’s just a couple bytes of information, not who I am.
This was basically the plot of
Glass Onion
I will be forgotten by the world, but eventually the universe will remember as I’m turned back into star stuff.
You don’t even need to eat all of it. Eyes or lips will do.
Good luck with that. LOL
This is probably a poor choice of words, but…“if hitler can do it, so can I in a non-genocidal way”
…eat the Mona Lisa?
I wanna enjoy the things out there and maybe make more things that other people can also enjoy too.
Might as well have fun c:
How would you do it, though? Do you sneak into the Louvre and snack on it slowly under cover of darkness? Is it a smash and grab in which you try to eat as many pieces as possible before you’re shot? Are you taking the painting home with you to braise it in a nice osso buco?
Dress up as a security guard first…
There are worse things people are remembered for. So sure go for it i would say :)
Haha who cares if you’re forgotten, not everyone reaches upwards simply to be remembered.
Is this the guy who ate an airplane?
Francis Dolarhyde, is that you?
