I bought cast iron pan which I think is the best ever purchase I made.

The best purchase I've made this year has to be the tickets for the "Barbie" movie on opening day July 21st. As I watched the movie in theater (the best way to watch a movie), I was literally moved to tears by the performance of the lead actress, whom I might add, deserves an Oscar this year.

Fellow lemmings, I, for one, will definitely be buying "Barbie" on Blu-ray to have it in my collection.

Multiple copies, in fact.

I truly enjoy seeing you pop up all over Lemmy, especially with posts and comments like these! Rose gold effort!

Aw shucks, thanks.

Wait, no, now my cover is blown. 😭

Oh my god I loved you in that science meme!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty good at both science AND memes.

My job is memes

Two questions for you!

1.) What is the most useful thing we in the Lemmy community can do to help you get that Oscar?

2.) I have a secret Santa this year coming up in a month that I am a part of with some friends. Would you be interested in leaving a comment for a friend of mine in response to this that I can show them a month from now for the secret santa?

β€œHey Rome, this is Margot Robbie wishing you a merry Christmas and happy new year?”, or something like that?

Thanks for being cool either way and good luck getting nominated this year!

  1. Memes. I don't know how it works either so I'm just going with it.

  2. I'm sure he would appreciate the sincere thoughts of you as his friend more than a social media comment left by a complete stranger from the Internet. Which is what this is.

Still, hi Rome!

You're no stranger, you're THE Margot Robbie! Well, A Margot Robbie. And since I saw that name on my screen that means we're best buds, right?

You are the opposite of me, I got bored in 10 minutes and I turned it off after 30 minutes.

It's cool that people can enjoy so different things.

Look at the username, it's her.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do you...actually think that's the real Margot Robbie and not just someone pretending to be her for a theme account?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Looks like I completely dissappeared into the role of "average Lemmy user" here.

That's called acting.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'm pretty sure it's not actually her, but in the context of the post the user replied to, it's still worth playing into it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Agree to disagree on that one.
