    From what i could tell it became a shortlived meme to just announce and ask if you knew that daft punk had broken up

    This shows how absorbed into my work and school I've been this year. So this is actually the first time I've heard about this.

    I remember telling one of my girlfriends "poor Karl, people must be telling him that Daft Punk break up NONSTOP" when it happened. Apparently, I was right.
    Parassocial relationships must be so fucked up, man. I do respect a lot the way this channel in general deals with it.

    Legend is the reason they broke up is that one of them found out the other wasn't actually a robot.

    Since we are talking about daft punk, maybe you should talk about the stig from top gear also :)
