Actively resisting the urge to follow southsamurai all over Lemmy to tell him he's a cool dude

LOL I literally typed up a comment once saying how cool I thought he was. But then I deleted it without posting because it felt weird.

Though he did drop a pretty dark joke recently that got very bad reviews and had to be removed. Never meet your heroes ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I didn't see the joke but I did see the follow up comments to it and I'm not too bothered. Seems he knows it was a bad joke and wasn't offended that it got removed. We've all told a bad taste joke once or twice in the past. Guy has such a pattern of genuine wisdom (and accepted the bad comments with grace) that I'm totally willing to let one slide.

But now I'm wondering if it's even weirder to be gassing him up in a conversation he's not even in. Part of me hopes he sees this and part hopes he doesn't ๐Ÿ˜…

You want me to tell him? I'm going to dinner at his house tonight.
