Jeff Hapeman took this amazing photo of a green aurora over Lake Superior, Michigan. From APOD:
What if your horizon was green? If you've got a camera, take a picture! That was the experience of Jeff Hapeman last week when visiting the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan. On a quiet night toward the northern horizon over Lake Superior was a long lasting diffuse green aurora. The above image was taken in an effort to capture the sense of wonder one gets when watching an auroral display. Auroras are sparked by energetic particles from the Sun impacting the magnetic environment around the Earth. Resultant energetic particles such as electrons and protons rain down near the Earth's poles and impact the air. The impacted air molecules temporarily lose electrons, and when oxygen molecules among them reacquire these electrons, they emit green light. Auroras are known to have many shapes and colors.
That was great. I'm pretty sure I'm one of those, but I'm not sure which. Actually, I think most people would fall into one of those categories at one time or another.
I would have added the "religious nut" to the list, though. Getting bombarded by obscure, seemingly irrelevant Bible verses is never pleasant... especially if you're not a Christian.
"Religious Nuts" are quite common on Neatorama. In fact, many of those types Internet Commenters sometimes comment on Neatorama. I believe myself to be one of them..

Actually there is an apostrophe in "your" ie "you`r" all gay.
In fact all the spelling and grammar in this thread is terrible.

As in, "Gee, you're right, the spelling and grammar is horrible. Thanks for adding to the collection."
