So I just discovered that one of my university housemates is a YouTube celebrity

[simmeh]

I just watched the Copyright episode of the Jimquisition and he mentions someone named 'Northern Lion'. I thought to myself, "wasn't that the XBox Live account name we all used in university?"

One short search in YouTube confirmed it. Same bald head, same stubble, same black-framed glasses, same voice (though he sounds remarkably more excitable these days), same trip to Korea, and same love of Super Punch Out.

So, does anyone else have stories like this?

Sorry, this is off-topic, but bait titles like that should not be allowed. It's a dirty trick to make people view your thread.
Do you think I would be in here if you made a descriptive title?

Is that a new rule? I've been coming here on and off for years and I've never heard of that.

If it is, I apologize.

EDIT: I apologize even if it isn't a new rule. In fact, I'd say that's even worse on my part.

Eh, sort of. I had someone share some really weird but amusing videos with me which looked really familiar. Partway in I realized that, yes, I had seen those videos before, as I had shared two classes with the videos' creator. The guy who shared them freaked out when I told him, as he was a big fan.

It just says you shouldn't have a deliberately misleading title. So I guess yours is OK, but it's still something that annoys me when I see one.

I can understand that. I've edited it now.
