APoD Wank that Isn't About Panoramas
So, on the LJ Feed for Astronomy Picture of the Day, today's offering is a unqie way of viewing a solar eclipse -- by holding a strainer up to a T-shirt screen.

There are complaints

Ooo, it's like a little circular grid of eclipses...

That's so cool. @_@

A leafy tree shadowing a sidewalk is awesome, too.

Wow, some people sure take their APOD seriously.

(I guess [info]the_red_shoes would find me lame, too, because I thought it was a pretty clever way of viewing the eclipse.)

I think it would be cooler on the naked breast of a woman. :)

Wow, some people really need to just... step back from the keyboard and take a few deep breaths, or something. Also, the little "tl;dr/ts;dr" part made me spitlaugh. The end.

I am well and truly baffled. It's nifty, it's related to astronomy, what's the problem?

I thought it was a nice change. I like the amazing vistas but after a while the blur together. This was cool.

I am so amused by this. I posted on my jf earlier. I know one of the people there and she can always be counted on for wank.

Damn you, 7th grade science class, for taking the mystery and wonder out of pinhole lenses for me! *shakes fist*

I don't normally read the comments to the feed -- probably for this reason. I'm just here for the neat pictures.

Short insulting replies of the kind that would rile me up if I wrote a thoughtful response. Nothing too memorable, but kinda trollish.

Dude.

This reminds me of when somebody linked to this on wtf_inc over on LJ, and somebody in the comments responded with something like "wtf some people have no lives".

Some people just can't recognize true awesome when they see it. :(
