What if there was a famous celebrity who posted in the Lounge all the time.
....and nobody even knew who he/she was? Or better yet, what if they crafted a totally fake persona to fool everyone.

I have it on good knowledge that there is indeed such a person right here at DU. They are originally from Texas.

8. Meh, being famous doesn't seem to make people any more interesting than a person naturally is.
Never really understood the whole famous thing. Why is a famous person posting here any more interesting than say a lobsterman?
:shrug:
But hell, I guess I'm weird that way.

51. Because people who are famous usually do something that a lot of people are somewhat interested in.
Like if it was an actor, people would be excited because they saw him or her in a movie and they'd have a bunch to say about it, and they'd want to share in the experiences vicariously.

A lobsterman on the other hand, people would say "Yeah, lobster is tasty. You probably didn't catch the one I ate though. I'm hungry now." And that'd be the extent of it. Sure there could be some kickass lobster stories, but they're just not as exciting or glamorous usually.

I dunno, I could be wrong.

57. Sailors actually often have the best stories!
I guess you're right though. I just don't 'care' about movies or media either. Hell if I like a movie great, but I sure don't care about the actors in it. Still, your post makes sense to me.

Ohhh. Sorry. You said "a" lobsterman, not "The" Lobsterman.

I imagine they'd want to post anything here privately though.

I think it's great that celebs might be around but I've never been an autograph hound. Still I am curious as to who it might be. And if there's one I'm sure there may be more.
