Holly shit. I won the internet lottery! Or maybe you did? I dunno.
Dunno about 9 months before but when I was born ‘No Limit’ by 2Unlimited was #1, and when my wife was born it was the Smurfs’s cover of that song.
ITT: people doxing themselves
Oh no, someone can figure out when my Birthday kinda is!
Nah, #1 songs usually last a couple weeks. And we’re looking at weeks, not days.
live at 308 Negra Arroyo Lane, Albuquerque, New Mexico, 87104. This is my confession. If you’re watching this tape, I’m probably dead, murdered by my brother-in-law Hank Schrader. Hank has been building a meth empire for over a year now and using me as his chemist. Shortly after my 50th birthday, Hank came to me with a rather, shocking proposition. He asked that I use my chemistry knowledge to cook methamphetamine, which he would then sell using his connections in the drug world. Connections that he made through his career with the DEA. I was… astounded, I… I always thought that Hank was a very moral man and I was… thrown, confused, but I was also particularly vulnerable at the time, something he knew and took advantage of. I was reeling from a cancer diagnosis that was poised to bankrupt my family. Hank took me on a ride along, and showed me just how much money even a small meth operation could make. And I was weak. I didn’t want my family to go into financial ruin so I agreed. Every day, I think back at that moment with regret. I quickly realized that I was in way over my head, and Hank had a partner, a man named Gustavo Fring, a businessman. Hank essentially sold me into servitude to this man, and when I tried to quit, Fring threatened my family. I didn’t know where to turn. Eventually, Hank and Fring had a falling out. From what I can gather, Hank was always pushing for a greater share of the business, to which Fring flatly refused to give him, and things escalated. Fring was able to arrange, uh I guess I guess you call it a “hit” on my brother-in-law, and failed, but Hank was seriously injured, and I wound up paying his medical bills which amounted to a little over $177,000. Upon recovery, Hank was bent on revenge, working with a man named Hector Salamanca, he plotted to kill Fring, and did so. In fact, the bomb that he used was built by me, and he gave me no option in it. I have often contemplated suicide, but I’m a coward. I wanted to go to the police, but I was frightened. Hank had risen in the ranks to become the head of the Albuquerque DEA, and about that time, to keep me in line, he took my children from me. For 3 months he kept them. My wife, who up until that point, had no idea of my criminal activities, was horrified to learn what I had done, why Hank had taken our children. We were scared. I was in Hell, I hated myself for what I had brought upon my family.
Through this meme I learned I was named Hunter because the song hunter was no.1
… oh. huh. yyyeah i see there are indeed a number of my father’s favorite songs here ._.
Jump - Van Halen Bruce Springsteen - Dancing in the Dark Yes - Owner of a Lonely Heart Against All Odds - Phil Collins Tina Turner - What’s Love Got To Do With It
He used to sing along with these while driving or doing stuff around the house…
He used to sing along with these while driving or doing stuff around the house…
That he did! I’m stuff
I mean, those are all solid classics.
What’s love got to do with it was number 1 exactly 9 months before I was born
Nice phishing question though.
Specifically chose this to avoid phishing options.
#1 songs often spend weeks as #1. Mine spent 5 weeks up there. Call my bank and tell them my DOB is a range of 5-6 weeks and see how for you get. Especially since pregnancies are 40 weeks. I even know mine was 41. That’s not 9 months. Lots of rounding here intentionally to protect people.
So only 35 guesses instead of 7000 - 20000
If you don’t think a date range of 6 weeks can’t be used to further identify a person, please rethink that assumption.
Yep that was my thought too. I still looked mine up, I’m just not posting it. Funny enough, it’s a song I never cared for, but I know my mom absolutely hates.
The number one song around the time I was conceived was the “Theme from Shaft”.
You’re damn right it was…
Is this another one of those data mining tricks? Nice try. I’m not giving a bunch of Internet strangers any hints what month & year I was born. What’s your next post gonna be? Correlate this list of quirky words with each digit of your social security number to find your band name?
No, that’s why this is an imperfect measure of a song that might have spent weeks at #1.
I’ve already explained this like 5 times. Doesn’t anyone read comments?
the fucks a comment
Yes I read it every 5 times you explained it. Yes it’s fun and relatively harmless, but I still guarantee there are some autistic people nearby who’d be up to the challenge of narrowing down all the possible birthdates of someone whose answer was “Tina Turner What’s Love GotToDoWithIt.”
The famous digit 10…
I manually typed a zero. Auto-formatting must’ve changed it when I wasn’t looking. It was auto populating each number every time I hit enter.
Nice try FBi
Escape (The Piña Colada Song)
…yeah
Celine Dion - Think Twice, guess mom didn’t follow the advice 😭
Forget number 1s, what was your mother’s maiden name?
No… Your first pet name
JonesJohnsonSmith
I didn’t know lg tvs could tweet for us as well
Interesting thought experiment haha. “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)” by Whitney Houston. Can’t say I’d blame my parents for that one.
Girl you so young. I was jamming to that in middle school so your parents at least got good tastes.
“Footloose” by Kenny Loggins, and “Hello” by Lionel Ritchie. 1984 was a party.
Down Under by Men At Work
A man got to work down under, that’s for sure.
Happy upcoming birthday my fellow Libra!
Money Money Money by ABBA.
Ring My Bell By Anita Ward
I’m old, send help.
That’s a banger, though. And related
Sleeping bag by ZZ Top
Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
Yeah, but she wasn’t his lover… Oh, maybe that explains it.
I mean…I’d say my parents definitely were not in love.
Funkytown by Lipps Inc.
Dr Whooooo-ooooo (HEY!)
Dr Who
Dr Whooooo-ooooo (HEY!)
Dr Who
Dr Who.
My mom had to smuggle in records from the West so IDK what she had
Look up bone music ;p. Roentgenizdat
Boys II Men - I’ll Make Love to You
Huh.
I got The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the News 😆
Nice
It’s a curious thing.
Damn, I got “Endless Love” by Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie 😂
Rod Stewart - Tonight’s the Night
Regardless, they were playing Enigma
“In The Ghetto”. Damn.
Overheard by an LG TV

Don’t count back 9 months btw, count 40 weeks.
hansolo@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
I mean, we’re just getting close. It’s easier to ask people to count by month.
victorz@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I mean, if we’re narrowing it down to the week, I’m assuming the aim is to find out to which song your parents fucked you into existence. What was the vibe.
So the best bet is to count 40 weeks as that is more accurate than “9 months”. That’s all I’m saying. 😉👍
mig@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
40 weeks is 10 months.
