These kinds of name drops were huge in schlager music.
Here’s an Icelandic entry that’s 90% namedrops. The guy on the piano is a piece of shit but that’s another story.

They stopped making B52 planes in the 60s. Most of the B52s in use are at or around 70 years old. They have another round of upgrades slated, and will remain in service until at least 2050. There will be 100 year old airplanes in service.

OFFS. When Iran tried to interefere in 2020, researchers caught them and called them out. Then the Benz-Weiss-Taibbi-Musk-Jordan-Trump axis labeled those researchers "censors" ... and set about defunding them and dismantling their organizations.

Bótox-skandall í fegurðarsamkeppni úlfalda - RÚV.is Tuttugu úlfaldar voru dæmdir úr keppni í fegurðarsamkeppni úlfalda í Óman. Dómarar komust að þeirri niðurstöðu að úlfaldarnir hefðu gengist undir lýta- og fegrunaraðgerðir.

þegar ég segi að rúv sé eini alvöru fjölmiðillinn á íslandi þá er það einmitt vegna þess að aðeins þar finnast svona fréttir

dagblöðin voru full af svona þegar ég var krakki og þannig húkkaðist ég á fréttaflutningi
