Wytch comments on Evangeline Lilly Has No Regrets About Leaving Hollywood: 'I've Always Hated Being Famous'

"I don't know who this celebrity is" is the new I don't even own a TV

You can just look her up on the internet, you don't need to ask in the comments

Not every conversation needs to be “Donny, you’re out of your depth!” though.

I think this thread may be missing the joke when a celebrity says they don't miss being famous and the response is "who?"

They were barely famous, not exactly a household name. So there's humour in declaring not knowing who she is.

Instead we've got the fun police complaining about the lack of use of search engines and then an explanation on how to use search engines.

In other words: Yeah, but I wasn't over. Give me the marker Dude. I'm marking an 8.

Clarification: Every smartphone can long-press and search the default search engine, which is usually Google, but some people change it to DuckDuckGo or something else for privacy reasons. Either way, it'll tell you who a famous person is.

Every computer/web browser can highlight, right click, search the Internet for the highlighted thing. You don't need special software to do it.

(Not disagreeing, just clarifying for anyone who doesn't know how. Though, I suppose they do know, they just feel entitled to have someone explain it to them personally.)
