I mean, to be fair... I use Lemmy, and I think the same thing. Which then gets the song ace of spades going in my head.

You're using Lemmy? C'mon, stop lying 🤥

For me it's "God Was Never On Your Side" which is honestly very apt for the platform.

Firat time I heard it was on the Kenny Evertt Video Show

Kenny was a bit of legend, rumor has it he was the one that first played Bohemian Rhapsody on his BBC music radio show, everyone else said it was rubbish or too long.

Trick question. Lemmy is god.

So if Lemmy is not named after Lemmy, then what is Lemmy named after?

I would never have the courage to tell a coworker I use the obscure communist social media site. And if I phrased it that way they'd probably assume I was talking about rednote

buttnugget@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 254d

It’s such a stupid fucking name.

finitebanjo@lemmy.world · -2 pts · 254d

Honestly such a cool name wasted on a platform maintained by Tankies.
