Beets by Dre…and we thought you were smart.
If you think I'd be able to identify Dr. Dre by sight, you haven't been paying attention.
You don't know what Dr Dre looks like, but expect RB to know what Taylor Swift looks like? 

Also, merry holidays everyone!
Yes, Taylor Swift is probably the most well-known, photographed ubiquitous musician in America right now. She is a bonafide celebrity who saturates all forms of media. To place Dr. Dre's level of identifiability anywhere near hers is asinine.

I also expressed incredulity at RBs inability to decipher which individual was Taylor Swift out of a photo of two people when he'd already been told one of them was Taylor Swift. If you show me a picture of Dr Dre standing next to an elderly Jewish woman and go "hey, Jules, look at this picture of Dr Dre and an old Jewish lady," I would not respond "O RLY? Which is which?"
Could you identify Snoop Dogg?  Jay Z?
You two at the children's table pipe down…

Yes to both.

To not recognize Dr Dre as being a famous celebrity, could also be seen as asinine, by some.

Was something wrong with Julian and my exchange?

OK, then you should have seen Dr Dre at least once.
i got the herioz (sic) from my sister…. i dunno





At no point in Dr. See'a career has he had close to the level of identifiability of Swift, Jay Z, or Snoop Dogg. If you stopped 100 Americans at random and showed them a photo of Dre, I'd estimate less than 10 would identify him. Do the same with Taylor Swift and the number would be in the 70s.

Thank you to all who participated in the forum gift exchange, I'm very happy with my gift!
MERRY
CHRISTMAS
EVERYONE
Happy New Year!
to those who celebrate Rushanukkah
I can't picture what Dr. Dre looks like either.
