I guess this is almost two years old now, but I had never seen it before. A massive lightning storm during a volcanic eruption in Chile.

This reminds me of a certain mod who won’t come on my boat.

“I don’t fuck with water.”

“What? Why not?”

“I dunno. The same reason I don’t fuck with outer space.”

That volcano in Iceland sucks big time. My fiancee and I were supposed to stop in Reykjavik on our honeymoon cruise. That was the stop I was looking forward to the most, and the reason we got a starboard side balcony room. ☹

Who knows how much of our cruise will be affected now.

Obviously there are people that are waaay more affected than us by this, and I hope they come out alright.
