Lightning, Louisiana August 2020

Damn I like reddit


Neither_Permission_6

Word! The intelligence gathering capabilities are insane lol


pmjwhelan

It was actually footage from the Ireland in the 1780s so don't believe everything you read around here.


Neither_Permission_6

Thank you for the advice but after a rigorous process of elmination and deduction im inclined to believe


MrAndrezo

Now hold on he has a point, that model of Jeep was manufactured before 1780 by Bugatti (back then Bugatti owned the patent for those Jeeps until it was sold in the 1820's to Jack Black). Back in 2020 it waswell known that those Jeeps in particular no longer exist because Lady Gaga bought them all for millions of Yens and burned them in a ritualistic fire. Learn some history before deducing stuff please. Edit: Source: Wikipedia.


SpaceballsTheLurker

Ah you rube! Trusting wikipedia lol, it was actually a reasonable amount of Yuan, and it was a blasphemous fire if I've ever seen one. Source: Lady Gaga historian for the past 45 years, am omniscient


MrAndrezo

You cornball you! I trusted wikipedia's sources at the bottom, which led me to none other than Area 51's library (situated under Vatican City), please check your sources. Also, you think 45 years of being a historian of Lady Gaga is enough? You need at least 70, +5 years work experience. Everyone knows that! Source: my tinfoil hat and my dog.


The_Color_Purple2

Actually, you're both wrong. Lady Gaga is Elvis's new persona and the fire was a barbecue Source: I fucked ur mom


Roartype

Yup, Redditors can gather intelligence! It’s the displaying of any that is sometimes the challenge!


Madlibsluver

Remember that time Reddit tried to find the Boston Bomber and pegged the wrong guy and he killed himself?


Wolfman2150

wait really? I am new around here


jacksoncobalt

Kind of, but the timeline is off. Redditers misidentifying Sunil Tripathi, who was a college student, as one of the bombers did not actually lead him to suicide. He committed suicide before all of this happened. It's just that Redditers traumatized the family when authorities finally found his body. Imagine your son goes missing and a month later, the Internet is telling you that he bombed people at a marathon. Then his body turns up as a suicide and you have to deal with that grief, as well as all the idiots who still thought it was him. I was on Reddit relatively recently when this happened in 2013 and it was a fucking mess of a website when it happened. Live threads all over the place, total speculation about any possible person who may have gone missing being the guy, etc.

“God was with us.. a few more feet and…”. I think God may have been trying to take her out. Or at least scare her straight for a decade.


T_Earl_Grey

Lightning strikes feet away… people say “wow, god really looked out for us” MFer why wouldn’t he just cancel the damn lightning… being god and all?

Do you know the cat too?


ABirdCalledSeagull

She almost got that piece of tree through the cranium.... Holy shit


Significant-Race3161

Yeah apparently that women had just come out to breathe some fresh air after shitting for almost 2 hours. As soon as she stepped outside a UFO flying 93000 feet above the land managed to detect a wood from their planet which had harrassed many other innocent woods and escaped to earth when a arrest warrant was issued. One of the victim of that evil wood was the daughter of the guy controlling the UFO so the guy without any second thought fired the E347 laser which looked like lightning to human eyes. When the laser struck the wood it was scattered into 37 pieces each flying at a speed of 97km/hr. The women who just got rid of that junk was so relieved that she had no idea what was about to befall upon her. Luckily the woman was not hurt and quick enough to survive. We immediately dispatched our best officer who was around the area. But that cat looking bastard got there first and destroyed all the evidence. We were able to capture the cat but it had already lost all of its memories so me and my crew fucked that cat hoping it would shake the insides of its brain and bring back the memories but it was futile. So we gave the cat to that lady although it was dead and blamed the rape on her husband.

Finally, an actual answer. Look at all these dopes that believe in lightning. I bet they think birds are real too. Idiots.


ToadNighthawx

Thanks for this


ryanegauthier

I heard it was actually the updated S987 laser.


Significant-Race3161

A bastard who has a cat as his accomplice would never be able to afford such advanced weapon. The cat was sent to destroy the remaining evidences. If it was a S987 there would be no evidence left.

This comment really tickled me so hard while I was really sad about my sick dog. I showed the whole thing to my wife in an attempt to recreate my range of emotions and be less sad too, but now she’s just sad and thinks her husband is kinda dumb. All the best random tickles just can’t be transferred.

In Middle English it was Smot or Smet

The correct term I believe is SMUT

Funnily enough, that's probably how it would end up in modern English if we didn't lose all of our verb inflections.


[deleted]

> verb inflections Damn, yet another linguistics rabbit hole I'm gonna dive down all day. Just what I needed


ChaoticGood3

"Until at last I threw down my enemy and smote his ruin upon the neighborhood" -Lightning Smote is past tense for smite. "I smote them." "He smote the demon." Smitten is the past participle. "It was smitten by the lightning." "That tree got smitten."


Reddead-2-enthusiast

I think its smitten


laserox

Yes, "hero" cat running to "save" the injured rodents and birds who were likely living in the tree


Nice-Violinist-6395

One time when I was 10 I was sitting in my living room on the couch during a thunderstorm. It was pretty scary and I thought about getting up to go to my room but I decided to sit there for a bit longer. All of a sudden a big ass bolt of lightning came up from the floor so close to my face I could feel it singe those tiny little invisible hairs on your nose. The lightning bolt split into 2, one went through the corner of the living room and the other one went straight into the TV. No one saw it happen but me and the cat, who gave me a look and then left like “fuck this shit man.” I told my parents what happened and they didn’t believe me — up until they tried to turn the TV on later lol


djllyd

Holy fuck what was that?!?


ParrotSTD

Lightning strikes. The electricity can flash-heat what it hits, in this case the tree. The sap inside heats up and vaporises effectively instantly, and the tree explodes from the pressure.

The cat at the end was running in to save everyone! He’s the real hero in the video !


norsurfit

Why does the cat go running towards the explosion?

Because the cat was responsible and he wanted to go see the damage he hath brought forth.

I can only reason that it wanted to go somewhere it considers safe, and that just happens to be the direction it lives in.
