SHUT UP ABOUT NICOLE

97 comments

You're just mad we all have a girlfriend.
- Impressive she has the time for all of us!
  
  She's federated.
  
  She's a real go-getter, that one.

- Good, don't ask.
  
  Don't listen to him, OP! ASK!
- !nicole@feddit.org
  
  Please someone create. I know it's run its course, but it would be great to let some folks create Nicole memes to preserve it for future generations to enjoy. Just like Dat Boi.

Why are you guys referring to her as Nicole, she says you can call her the fediverse chick.
- Those who weren't blessed by her aren't allowed to address her by her proper title.
- Well, I call her Fedi-Chica.

A few years from now people will have nostalgia about these early fediverse days and the weird and lame stuff like "the fediverse chick"

I'm glad I'm not the only one, lmao.
- Yeah, it's run its course.

I will continue to talk about Nicole until she finally notices me! (Haven't received a message yet, I feel left out)
- Hey, that's my girlfriend you are talking about!
  
  Saving this image lol
- I got a message from her yesterday and I had never talked about her before so I don't think you can summon her that way. I can forward you the message if that'll make you feel better. I'll be your Nicole.
  
  Thank you Nicole-by-proxy!
- I only got her message on a new account I made recently
  
  My account is too old? You're telling me Nicole likes them young?
  I no longer like Nicole
- I've only received the spam once. I guess I do not qualify as an active Fediverse user. 😒
- Same here brother.

I wanna see a full on Reddit-style investigation of the theory that it's not a scam, but a malicious bullying campaign against the human shown in the pictures. If Lemmy solves a mystery and stops a crime, we could become the new superpower social media. 😌
- Next up, we finally get to the bottom of that Boston Marathon Bombing.
  
  It was those damn Mooninites!
- We did it .world!

yes, rather post your enlightenment on !nicole@feddit.org

Sounds like someone's jealous...

Wtf did I do?

You first.
But seriously, it gets annoying, but at the same time it's the biggest scam on the fediverse right now that I know of. So I feel like a little visibility once in awhile (not 6 times a day) that lets people know about it is fine.
To anyone who knows: is there a way to filter out usernames containing that name? Like if I could block dms from my chosen instance, that'd be great. I've been getting 2-3 a week.

I wonder how they bother to change the photo with a very similar but almost identical one but always copy-paste the same text, isn't the opposite way easier?

…also known as the fediverse chick
- You keep her name outcha mouf!

someone's upset nicole hasn't reached out.

B-- But! I got a DM!
- I just got one the other day too! I'm very excited to make new friends like Nicole on this website.
  
  :D Totally~

Bro why u gotta bring up Nicole! /s
- If you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back

Down voted for being esoteric.

Dude, for real. We get it. You got a spammy DM from a "girl". Do we really need two or three different communities dedicated to everyone posting the same fucking screenshot over and over?!
("She" hasn't DM'd me yet, but I can assure you that if she ever does, I will not be posting a screenshot of it anywhere. It will be summarily buhleeted and that will be the end of that.)
- If it’s a rare Nicole you have to post it that’s the rules now. You have to. Promise if it’s a rare Nicole you’ll post. PROMISE
  
  Well that didn't take long. "She" must be watching this thread. Got two in the last hour. Exactly like all the others I've seen, though I didn't analyze all the ridiculous filter-avoiding spaces. Maybe "unique" from that angle, but certainly not "rare." Blocked the users, reported the spam, and just as soon as Lemmy supports deleting PMs I'll do that too.
  
  I genuinely have no idea what a rare Nicole even is because they're all the exact same fucking thing. Oh look, here's what her message looks like in Boost. Hey, here's what her message looks like in Voyager. Hey have you seen what her message looks like in whatever that one that's supposed to look like Old Reddit because fuck u/spez but we can still pine for the good old days?
  But hey, sure. You know what? If I get a "rare Nicole" - and my assumption here is, like, she comes out as a furry, or sends indisputable proof of the true identity of DB Cooper, then yeah. Sure. I'll post it.
  At least it would be OC.
- You'll find your own Nicole one of these days.

We're talking about Nicole here?
- And whenever Nicole's not in the meme, everybody should ask "where's Nicole"

If I had a nickel for every time I saw a Nicole post...

The only logical approach here is to ban use the use of "Nicole" or "fediverse chick" across all instances and warn or ban anyone who upvotes posts that mention or vaguely allude to "her".
- Does Nicole like that movie or something?
- You want to be like Reddit?
  
  No, of course not. I was being sarcastic. I usually add a /s but this seemed obvious

Hey slender man, shouldn't you be stalking some children?

I love that man

No more unless she's made of beans.
