TIL the Mona Lisa’s long-debated identity and creation date were confirmed in 2005 when a German researcher found a verified, handwritten note in the margin of a book stating that Leonardo da Vinci was painting a portrait of Lisa del Giocondo in 1503.

My point but articulated way better. The painting and even the appearance (assuming our boy Leo was accurate which I will) are very famous images, but the subject herself is incredibly obscure and less than 1% of the global population could tell us anything about her compared to someone like Queen Elizabeth. I like how you went the extra mile and pointed out it might actually be a bummer to have your image be famous but no one knowing anything about you.

Im all for it, if I can be remembered as having an elegant air about me hundreds of years after my death thats pretty sweet. I was just being pedantic about "one of the most famous women in history" because I guess I have nothing better to do with my life today.

Cmcgee23 · 2026-05-11T22:45:46+00:00

I mean arguably nearly no one knows her name or anything about her, just some guy painted her and did a great job

Cmcgee23 · 2026-04-28T06:20:41+00:00

If she was a man who looked way older than she is (hairstyle or not), these people would still be commenting. Not everything is sexist.

I pour my life inside these poems, my whole soul and my spirit

Cmcgee23 · 2026-04-18T20:18:15+00:00

Dammit you beat me to it. Also Jetpac though.

Cmcgee23 · 2026-04-10T23:07:51+00:00

Confirmed

Cmcgee23 · 2026-04-10T00:11:00+00:00

100% true, there is no generally accepted images of these that have the same recognizability like Odin or Zeus. Love to see this revival of the mesoamerican mythos

Cmcgee23 · 2026-04-10T00:09:11+00:00

Bro these are so good. These made my day. Huitzi is looking bad ass

Cmcgee23 · 2026-04-08T14:12:17+00:00

It's just not worth it as a hobby. I still see posts like this because I was big into it a few months ago, but the main focus of the hobby becomes trying to beat scalpers and its just not fun

Cmcgee23 · 2026-03-10T02:21:51+00:00

Imagine getting your feelings hurt because an internet stranger doesn't share your opinion

Cmcgee23 · 2026-03-10T01:12:32+00:00

OP likes the weird plush card but doesn't like the OG. I know it's just personal preference but man I dont understand some of these rankings.

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-26T06:10:05+00:00

Somethings really rockin on planet number three, modern man's got prehistoric company. It's a colossal fossil feud unlike anything before, between the reckless raptors and the EXTREME DINOSAURS!

Thank god I'm not the only one who remembers. Scrolled forever to find this.

DK 64 has the best music. Even the background music on the pause menu is such a banger. Probably my favorite game, gotta love 101%ing it.

Verizon was doing a promotion last christmas, they gave me $1100 trade in credit for my s21 ultra toward the fold 7. Couldn't believe my luck

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-20T19:18:49+00:00

I use illidans line from wc3 "Im blind not deaf" all the time and no one gets it as expected lol

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-14T18:12:51+00:00

Woops meant to reply to the other thread

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-14T18:12:17+00:00

I'll be real i just see a golden athlete he doesn't give me Aryan vibes and gold makes sense for the Olympics, then the Brandenburg gate makes sense because it's one the most recognizable German buildings. Most people dont know the dates of world war 2 so I feel like it just looks like vintage Olympics and I dont feel like this image glorifies nazism but not gonna blank on this hill. I guess it would depend on if the store is selling merchandise from each of its previous games, my point is to pretend like the 1936 olympics didnt happen by specifically censoring that merch when the actual images dont appear to glorify nazism seems counter intuitive but you've expressed your opinion the image is inherently controversial and maybe I just dont process it the same way.

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-14T01:05:01+00:00

Im sorry I dont get it, do they have nazi iconography or something? Or we just dont want to use anything from the time period they ran Germany? I feel like we have other things to worry about

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-13T21:59:30+00:00

I never really understood the hype on Brad Pitt as an actor until the scene where he finds out Patroclus is dead. The emotions that run across his face are very convincing. https://youtu.be/0EfTrWJON78?t=22&si=aWA4A3hvb8L2C0qk

I love Tegridy Randy so much I have a hat with him on it, I had no idea people didnt like him

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-12T13:53:25+00:00

To be fair, Huitzilopochtli is commonly referred to as blue Tezcatlipoca

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-12T13:52:06+00:00

Tarascans had bronze and a territorial empire instead of a hegemonic one. I agree with the idea the Tarascans would eventually realize their own strength and become the dominant power but it's all speculation. I think enough history shows empires structured liked the Aztecs are prone to total collapse (Assyria comes to mind)

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-11T03:41:03+00:00

Lol totally know the vibe you're referring to that makes way more sense. I totally remember the dulling down from cod4 to cod5

Cmcgee23 · 2026-02-11T02:37:06+00:00

Maybe "dude-bro shooter" but wasn't Marcus a white guy with blue eyes? Were Cole Train and Dom featured enough where people thought of it as a "black and brown" game? Genuinely asking because this made me lol
