That's how they get you. They lure you in with promises of gold and then BOOM. Fucking lightning. Fucking leprechauns. .

[–]evilpretzel 29 points30 points ago

holy fuck, that link was hard to find.

[–]so_carelessly_here 17 points18 points ago

I thought it was a smudge of some sort on my screen. It really bothered me. I just kept rubbing my screen with my finger...

And then it hit me that I might be insanely stupid.

[–]CaptInsane 4 points5 points ago

what the fuck are you talking about

[–]Pxzib 5 points6 points ago

Just click the "Source" button under the comment

[–]CaptInsane 2 points3 points ago

I don't have a source button

Might be because of this. Get this plug-in, it's great.

[–]BurntTheToast 0 points1 point ago

Oh god here comes the RES spam.

[–]CaptInsane 1 point2 points ago

Thanks. I'll save that for later; not something I want to install on my work computer

[–]Grackalackin 2 points3 points ago

with res, you just press 1 for the first link (the [1]) and so on

[–]xRobbStarkx 5 points6 points ago

[–]TheTedinator 1 point2 points ago

1% of the Leprechauns control 99% of the pots of gold. WE ARE THE 99% Occupy Rainbows.

[–]Ryanair 5 points6 points ago

Going all Trapped_in_reddit I see. Stop it. Please.

[–]bitcheslovedroids 1 point2 points ago

You never go full TIR

[–]Chachoregard 1 point2 points ago

No, no. Let the man have his fun.

[–]Anaract 1 point2 points ago

this is an awesome way to point out reposts

[–]teamatreides 0 points1 point ago

Actually, they get you through parallax. The end of the rainbow depends on from where you view it. It's alllll in the contract.

[–]TheAtomicPlayboy 14 points15 points ago

I was expecting an Olympics reference but this is cool too.

[–]BadBoyJH 12 points13 points ago

The lighting is hitting Australia.

[–]proddy 5 points6 points ago

Ouch, right in the pride.

[–]JKR93 2 points3 points ago

I wish this happened to anyone posting on here with "facebook gold".

[–]RiPotato 0 points1 point ago

This just in, it seems that random lightning strikes are hitting many houses in the United States. Back to Tom with the traffic.

[–]Lame-Duck 0 points1 point ago

This is way cooler

[–]Lots42 1 point2 points ago

Who doesn't?

[–]Nukarama 1 point2 points ago

I don't, I happen to be one :(

[–]ColtonProvias 8 points9 points ago

Is this is Florida? The only time I recall seeing apartments like those was the year I spent there.

[–]fixessaxes 1 point2 points ago

Yeah I think I lived in those apartments. A little south of Orlando near-ish the airport. I forget what the place was called though.

[–]ChunkBunny 1 point2 points ago

Central Texas has some apartments just like these, same colors and all. I guess these are more popular than I thought.

[–]pburn883 0 points1 point ago

it could be... but these type of apartments are very popular in NJ

[–]MildlyConcerned 0 points1 point ago

If I recall correctly when the original uploader posted this he said it was in Orlando. I think.

[–]LeComedien 0 points1 point ago

Lol, I came here to say the exact same thing... and I don't even live in America!

[–]beachesatnormandy 0 points1 point ago

Definitely Orlando. Florida is the only place it full on thunder storms and is sunny within 2 feet of each other.

[–]xderkax 0 points1 point ago

It looks like Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort.

And thats how we know gold is a good conductor!

[–]thecircusdweller 0 points1 point ago

It took me hours of research, but I have concluded that gold IS, in fact, a good conductor

[–]Guicastelhone 5 points6 points ago

No karma for you, reposter. *BZZZZT

[–]Lots42 -3 points-2 points ago

I hadn't seen it so it's new to me.

[–]ImOnlySuperHuman 0 points1 point ago

But it's a repost to the rest of us.

[–]Lots42 1 point2 points ago

Nobody cares.

[–]ImOnlySuperHuman -2 points-1 points ago

Dawww... Is somebody upset??? You poor wittle thwing :p do you know how to redeem downvotes for upvotes???

[–]Lots42 3 points4 points ago

Are you trying to make sense or just posting high? Because I'm all for posting high.

[–]ImOnlySuperHuman -1 points0 points ago

My question has yet to be answered.

[–]Lots42 2 points3 points ago

Probably because nobody understands just what the fuck you are asking.

[–]Momordicas 0 points1 point ago

I wonder what fried leprechaun tastes like...

[–]bestbeforeMar91 0 points1 point ago

smoked salmon

[–]Squalor- 2 points3 points ago

Lucky is getting really fucking protective of his cereal.

[–]incinerate55 2 points3 points ago

Don't show this to Hollywood, we'll have a movie in no time about rainbows that attract blondes and then strike them down with lightning. Actually, go ahead and show this to Hollywood.

[–]ShinCoal 2 points3 points ago

I don't expect a lot of people to understand this: http://www.dota2wiki.com/images/3/37/Raz_deny_03.mp3

[–]tomfiend -1 points0 points ago

Ok, so I'm pretty stoned and I found this reeeeeally funny. I audibly guhfawed sitting here in my boxers but feel that I wouldn't have found it as funny were I not under the effect of this wonderful chemical. Do with that information what you will.

[–]mrlego611 0 points1 point ago

was this taken in florida by any chance?

[–]MIDItheKID 0 points1 point ago

Actually a pot of gold could have just been the most conductive object in the area. It just so happens that gold is incredibly conductive.

[–]felloutthevault 0 points1 point ago

When I told my brother about being promoted to a systems administrator, he asked me if I could get him free Diablo 3 gold. I wish I had had this handy! (Note: I'm a SysAdmin but not for Blizzard, he was trolling me)

[–]maybe21 0 points1 point ago

I for one am a ginger leprechaun and that was the pot I was guarding, I went to go take a piss, I hear a loud bang, then it was rainin gOld

[–]TrustInHenry -1 points0 points ago

I wish there was a double upvote option

[–]keloidprocess 1 point2 points ago

That might generate too many tears.

[–]mumbly__joe -1 points0 points ago

COME BACK, 1 YEAR.

[–]flinteastwood -2 points-1 points ago

I hate to be that guy, but I'm going to be. Based on the curvature, the rainbow actually ends to the left of the lightning strike. Factor in distance, and you'll find that the lightning strikes nowhere near the end of the rainbow. I guess you could argue that the person gets struck on their way to the pot of gold, but I choose to believe that leprechauns are much more evil and would wait until the very last second when the individual just has their hands on the gold, and then - BAM - get your hands off me lucky charms.

[–]CardboardHeatshield 0 points1 point ago

Maybe they just wait until the person is in line of sight of the gold. Waiting until that opportune moment, just as they see it, when their heart skips a beat and they think "Eureka! I've found it! I've actually found it!" to strike them down, just to be extra cruel.
