It's rude to stare. The sun doesn't like it


Sun wouldn't dress like that if it didn't want you to look. It knows what it's doing.

I saw the one in 1984. It was cool looking. it felt eerie and odd with the sunshine being deflected.

Whole bunch of idiots in Tiger Stadium then.

It's on TV seconds after happening with better shots.

Why experience it?

It's like skiing without glasses. Your eyes can bear it cause it's not shiny, but at the end o f the day your shite is fricked up.

It only took one time of skiing with no glasses to learn my lesson, don't plan on repeating.

The panic seems to be over the top.

The only thing I can figure is that because the sun won't be as bright, people will stare but the eyes will still get blasted with the same amount of radiation?

it is exactly like when you are in a restaurant wit your wife, and a sloot with a bra full of breasts walks by. Take a quick, highly focused gllance and be happy with that or you are at risk.

The eclipse is kind of creepy. Best thing to do is not watch it at all.
