Raiden wins.

This crazy-violent fast storm that just blew over (and out of) Boston had positive lightning in it! I didn't know about the existence of this phenomenon until now.

I saw two strange, long-lived, brilliantly purple lightning bolts and asked weather-nerd [livejournal.com profile] kyroraz what they were, and he told me. "It's really bad stuff", he added. "Do not get hit by it."

When I said "I think that took out Starbucks" I wasn't serious. I was just reacting to the fact that it was *close* and roughly in that direction.

Plus, if it really *did* hit Starbucks (I haven't checked), I add to my already awesome reputation. You have to set these things up sometimes.

I noted the lack of seriousness.

Quoted things usually are tags of not serious or other context for me, I dunno. :) It was not marked to be as literal.
