I'll be sure to forward your complaints to the Moon, so it can do better in the future.
The worst part for me was people clapping. Like it's a show put on just for them. Yay, the Moon still exists! Go Moon!

lol, wait, you saw people clapping? Humanity is doomed lol
Ah yes, because expressing joy at a rare natural phenomenon is a sure sign of the downfall of humanity.
Your cynicism is worse than their clapping. Let people enjoy things.
Yep, clap away like idiots then set fire to the nearby forest with a portable BBQ.
I refuse to interact with rage inducing content! :)
I enjoyed it. The kids enjoyed it. The neighbours all enjoyed it.

Some people just have to be contrarian. It was cool. It's 2 hours you won't have the possibility to spend again for the rest of your life.
I had a nice evening with friends on a hill to watch a, for us humans at least, rare event. It was nice. No clouds apart from a few in the end in northern germany.
I don't know, I thought it was pretty neat to see. Especially considering it's such a rare event in the universe - that the moon happens to be the perfect size to cover the sun like that, and that we live in the period where eclipses are possible to see (if I remember correctly this won't always be the case on Earth?). The conditions were also perfect.
Hiked out to a field, had a beer and saw it through a pinhole. Was a nice little outing.
They didn't see totality.
You mean OP? Neither did I - I assume everyone posting here is from the UK
For sure, just pointing it out because it makes a difference. I didn't know the path and if it went through the UK or not.
I saw totality and it was one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life.
The 2017 one was absolutely mind blowing. I happened to find an area with no people and clear skies. Totality is one of the craziest things I've ever seen.
I did think it would get much darker. My son was quite disappointed!
We went up the hill behind our house, and was filled with families from the village, which was lovely. My wife hastily made some pin hole boxes, but unfortunately the hole was too large on both of them so didn't get a great image.
Well there’s no need to be so fucking British about it
Who is this woman? and why is she relevant to the topic?
I'm pretty sure she's from the BBC
I thought it was fun, was certainly the best one I've got to see so far, and I didn't see much hype about it.
A casual place for banter and anything that doesn't fit in anywhere else.
Have chat and a natter. Talk about anything and everything that's not political!
Keep it casual.
