What are your thoughts? My sense is that yes, there are qualitative differences — mostly continuous, w/ a phase change here and there.

For example, being the "it girl" of the moment seems qualitatively different even from being a major A-list celebrity.

Another one probably comes from being recognized on the street by strangers who then approach you.

that one is actually awkward. Has actually happened to me 4 times in various Seattle cafes, pleasant, but net-negative utility

I feel for you. I've been with a friend who was approached, and it was alarming (for me) to lose privacy/anonymity so abruptly.

yeah, I was meeting someone at last incident and I could see they were a little put off. Actual celebs handle 10s/day, not 1/yr
