Why the fuck was this so hyped up? I could've gotten the exact same experience just looking at pictures of it. I even bought my glasses a month ahead of time, yet I ended up worse than the people who relied on a handout!

>he fell for the "witness the cool eclipse" meme

>>39223303
I did. I drove 3 FUCKING HOURS for this shit.
>but but it only comes around once in a generation
Just because it's rare doesn't mean it's worth watching.
War tends to happen a few times in a generation, doesn't make it worth watching.
>the media continues to say this was the greatest thing ever

How do you guys manage to fuck up even the most simple of things.

Some Chad would show up 5 minutes before it started, manage to get a seat next to some QT's, joke with them and watch the eclipse and take one home and fuck em.

Im still on my way back
8hr drive
Granted I got some food both ways from my parents

>>39223494
Did your experience turn out to be shit like mine?
Was it worth it?

>>39223530
Yeah it's over hyped
I feel like someone would lunch me if I said
"It's like looking at a picture"
It is though
And everyone must know it, right?
To be fair the whole going dark and light relatively fast was cool though.

I saw one in like 3rd grade.
I think it was around that time I realized most people are steeple.
It's all media and memes, the 'best tasting' restaurant! According to sheeple? It's not the one with the best food, but the one with the longest line, and they trick thier brains into thinking, well I waited so long, it tastes good.

>>39223241
you only have yourself to blame for falling for the fucking meme of going to a mass normie event.
be smarter next time. watch a fucking livestream of it.

I drove 2 hours to see it and it was worth it. You pussies can fuck up even cool shit.

>>39223936
That picture I put in could have been a flashlight behind a black ball and it would have tricked you all.
It's not worth the drive, not an 8hr one.
Don't fool yourself anon

>drive three hours
>it rains until after C3
Be glad you actually got to see totality.

>>39223241
Ayy Anon I drove from Orlando like the 9 trillion Floridians that invaded sc.
While it was cool I just drove there with friends only because I wanted to drive and not go to work.
Anyone else here /driver/?

You were within 3 hours of full cover and drove away to see it? I'm 20 hours away and only had to walk to my backyard to experience it.

>implying he wouldn't fuck all of them right after the eclipse started and before it ended to complete the ritual
>Implying Chad isn't secretly a sun worshipper
>Implying Chad isn't a moon worshipper

>driving north at dawn listening to comfy music.
It was nice. Drive back was kinda shitty though, got stuck in traffic for an hour and I was thirsty and sunburnt.

This was one of the more pathetic greentexts I've read online this year
