2 weeks ago or so I was up earlier than usual, fresh air on my deck with coffee

looked to the east and a bright star that did not seem to belong

then it started to fall and went poof then another in the same spot....what?

this went on 7 times or so

Co-pilot..... was that starlink dropping some odd sats?

nope that was a big meteor from the lyrids that broke up and those were the chunks, a train

during this just to the west a huge flash like and atomic bomb, it was a bolide airburst

that was a big one that got so hot it exploded and it was really bright......wow two events in a matter of 5 minutes

doubt I will ever get the chance to see that one again, small window, right timing

Cool, you caught the Lyrids under ideal conditions when the radiant was just above the horizon and caught a few chunks that probably began as one big piece of some comet and broke apart into a chain that comes in now one piece after the other.

Those are the best.

exactly, you explained it very well, and that huge white light explosion was crazy, like somebody turned on a massive bright floodlight and then turned it off

My best shower was one year watching the Leonids when they were flying all over the sky. The radiant was low in the east and they were both dropping down from it as well as seen streaking everywhere across the sky, but if you are lucky enough, the rare, rogue meteor can be great as well; I've seen bolides that light up the sky and cast shadows on the ground as well as meteors which make noise, sort of sizzle or pop, then once I even saw one that gave off a green trail behind it as it flew across the sky.
 
So why didn't you say anything about LibertyWeeps' post, which I was replying to?

Hypocrite!
My thread you shit on, what he said was you bringing politics into a thread about an celestial event

You started it, he responded

think before you post, maybe?

Wow, you're a flaming idiot!

You're the one who doesn't think before you post.

Apparently you don't even know the order of posts in your own thread.

Go back and look at your entire thread, Dummy Retardo!

He posted his comment first, and then I responded to his comment, and then you lambasted my comment and criticized it for the very things you didn't lambast and criticize his for.

Freaking idiot!

aww do you want a cookie?

his comment was off topic but mild, you responded making it a confrontation

take that shit private if you want to moan about something with him

still not the place for it, sad you can't get that

I don't want to clean up your poop like a bad dog

What a snowflake crybaby you are!

I was simply aping his POLITICAL comment from the other side.

He was the one who introduced POLITICS into your precious thread, as you accused me of doing.

And his comment was not mild. Regardless of degree though, my comment was no more or less mild than his.

His comment was an action, and my reply was an opposing but equal reaction.

But the point is, you stupidly and idiotically accused me of bringing POLITICS into your beloved thread and said that he was responding to me when you were clearly wrong on both counts.

And then you're saying I'm the one who's not thinking.

And no, I don't want your shit cookie.

If you're so upset and don't like me intruding into your post, why don't you go and cry and whine and complain to the moderator(s)? WAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Snowflake crybaby!

never a snowflake bud so your way off

yes he did, I did not find it offensive, you agitated

why did you feel the need to comment to his post in my thread is the point

moderators are not babysitters

notice I did not comment on his post, I ignored it, you should have to

shame I seem to be asking too much

You are a snowflake! A snowflake and a crybaby! A snowflake crybaby! WAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Of course you did not find it offensive because you agree with it. My post agitated and offended you because you don't agree with it.

Why does anyone feel the need to comment on anyone's post in anyone's thread? People can post and comment what they want within the guidelines. Geez Louise!

Okay, maybe moderators are not babysitters, but you're certainly in desperate need of and clamoring for one.

You didn't comment on his post but you laughed at it in agreement. So you didn't really ignore it, but even if you did, that doesn't mean I have to ignore it. I can comment and post anything I want to within the guidelines.

Yes, you are asking too much! You obviously don't believe in free speech!

Actually, you're not asking too much.

You're just being a big snowflake crybaby! WAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

You never heard of ignore? you did not need to respond at all but you just had to

because the first post off topic was not a left wing idea so you defended

Yeah, I'm a rude fuhker who wants to hijack another thread, LOL!

I have heard of ignore. I didn't need to respond but I felt like it, so there! LOL!

Because the first post off-topic was attacking the left you approved, LOL!

In the interest of peace, because you and Trump and MAGA are all about peace, I offer an olive branch:
