Are you fucking kidding me! You couldn't even change the tile when you reposted this.

[–]Cannibal_Moshpit 9 points10 points ago

Repost.

[–]ubomw 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, I didn't see it the first times.

It's not a natural lighting, it's man made by the lightning research laboratory at the University of Florida according to the original post. It's even more awesome, it's rocket science !

That place was about half an hour from my house before I moved. During the summer, there are storms literally every day, so it's a great place for many kinds of meteorological studies.

Probably because when you say "things you find online" you really mean things you found three days ago on reddit.

Maybe the entire Universe is comprised of bacon, and every micro particle is a charged with it's greasy goodness.

[–]nice_letch 0 points1 point ago

Or does bacon just look like incredible lightning?

[–]sumdeadguy 4 points5 points ago

[–]electrolemon 2 points3 points ago

Gosh - it's a bit of a rasher decision to post this.
