Any time one or more planets are visible to the naked eye, I approach every person in my vicinity and point and name each planet. Then I continue making my way to the next person who needs to know. It brings me joy.
One time I was driving through kind of a medium-bad neighborhood in my beater when a couple of very rough-looking guys pull up next to me, the driver shouts over “Nice car, homie!” and I realize they are in same make model and color as my beater. We had a good laugh waiting for the light to change. Godspeed car twin brother!
Once while driving home, I was following behind a Prius that had a " ‘Cool Prius’ -said no one ever" bumper sticker. A little later, we end up stopped side by side at the same light, and because it was summer, we both had our windows down. I looked over at her and said “Hey! Cool Prius!” before the light changed, I hope she appreciated it
I’ve been in that other’s person’s position before (for tangentially related things: I was wearing a “trust me I’m a doctor” t-shirt). I had no idea what that hell the other people (multiple) were going on about.
Yea I’ve been in the same boat, I was definitely worried she wouldn’t get it and just think I’m weird. I remember her looking confused for 5-10 seconds before she realized and laughed
This is sweet! I love interactions with strangers like this, never fails to brighten my day.
But the rainbow has always the same size…
Yeah, and that size is huge.
That’s the pessimism speaking, don’t listen to it.
Sometimes more of it is visible and the brilliance can make it seem larger.
