a ufo rant

[penguinfaery]

Ok so a few times the "IF UFOS are real why aren't their more videos of them with smart phones everywhere!?!?"

Which is frustrating because

a) even knocking out the like 80% of crap videos, because of smart phones there are a lot of really good, really solid videos.

b) I can't take a picture of the moon with my iphone for shit and it's huge, bright, and holds still.

This is legit one of my pet peeves. Never forget c) even if you could provide the perfect video, the same people would claim it was fake anyway.

[penguinfaery]

Very true. I mean they don't pop up every day but there are a handful of pretty damn solid ones.

Basically all of this. IDK how much I believe it, b/c I don't actively seek it out, but phone cameras are not as good as people act like they are. Nor does everyone have good luck with timing, angles, etc etc etc. The list goes on forever.

I think a lot of people just take cameras for granted, and don't really...think about that like...they are wonderful things, but they have a lot of technical limitation in capturing reality in many ways.

I think B is legit why there aren't more. People that see stuff are like...nah fuck it my phone will never pick that up.

(also you can tell how old this blog is by the amount of Naruto icons I have on it)

Old Naruto icons you say? I have none of those...

And yeah dude, I have never even considered going for my phone. Like...that thing we saw in the backyard??? Yeah lemme try to record this thing I can barely see with my eyes on my shitty phone.
