seems like the problem is not the northern lights but whatever place you went to to go see them

 

[BarcaDeac]

I never went to see the Northern Lights when I used to visit Finland but it was always on my radar. They always said that you're never guaranteed to see them and when you go you need to schedule at least a few days to give you the best chance.

i saw the NL from northern PA one time with a few friends when we were just hanging out at our little campfire at a family cabin, totally unexpected and it was fucking wild

10/10 experience

there were some times this summer/fall when they were allegedly visible locally, mostly up on the Blue Ridge Parkway. but apparently the best chance was using a camera with a good lens to pick up on it.

I imagine they’re pretty cool to see, but I don’t intend to go well out of my way to do it.

I'm going to Norway in march to see the Northern Lights and do other stuff.

i think it was an autocorrect from fleshlight

now it makes sense. the norse are into that shit

The northern lights are bullshit.

Yeah, they exist... but they look entirely different to the naked eye & attract a ton of Wal-Mart tourists with flashlights.

I grew up in Anchorage and they were the least interest part of all the scenery and things to do there.

Be sure to bring a good flashlight...?

Sounds great, enjoy.

We went on a boat tour in Reykjavik to see them, and it was packed because of the high aurora forecast (https://en.vedur.is/weather/forecasts/aurora/) for that evening.

They never appeared, so it was just a over-crowded 3 hour freezing ferry ride with tourists holding up their cellphones (because you would see them better through a lens).

I still can't believe this is a real thing, but we were also there while Yoko Ono's Imagine Peace tower was lit. Which is unbelievably irritating. It lights the entire sky around the city https://www.imaginepeacetower.com/



We ended up seeing the lights on our final night there & while its neat to say we experienced them... it was a big ole 'meh'.

Non-local tourist complains about other tourists doing the same thing he did. Such self hate.

Kelly Rowland was the most talented member of Destiny’s Child

 

[PhDeac]

Certainly the hottest but that’s not as unpopular of an opinion.

 

[Shooshmoo]

She's the third hottest and the second most talented, IRL.

Many years of Wake BB trauma have me still hesitant to believe in this team.

I’d say that’s just logical

Ted Lasso is one of the most overrated shows of all time.

 

[Liquid Karma]

Jesus, swung for the fences on that one did ya?

 

[Shooshmoo]

That's not even to say it's a bad show (though it's close). Just insanely over hyped for what it is. Enjoyed the 1st season enough, but they completely forgot to be funny after that.

 

[BeachBumDeac]

I agree with Shoo

it was a right place, right time show. The first season was funny and optimistic and positive when everyone was locked down and needed something to latch onto. If it came out any other time it would’ve been a completely insubstantial, forgettable show.
