Today, there is an annual solar eclipse. As I was buying the last pair of solar glasses to watch the eclipse with, some jerk snatched them out of my hands and bolted off with them. I now have to make the decision between watching the eclipse and not going blind. FML

LOOKING AT THE SUN FOR FIVE SECONDS WON'T MAKE YOU GO BLIND. Ultraviolet light is the biggest threat; you can block that by watching through a car windshield. You can also poke a pinhole through a piece of thick cardboard and look through that. If you feel fancy, look for directions on how to make a Camera Obscura.

seems like it should be a pretty easy decision. if you choose to go blind then you're an idiot.

Use a pinhole projecter instead

At least you had the choice to see it in your town. My FML would be "this was the first annular eclipse since 1994 and the viewing area stopped right before my town." There are many other ways to safely observe the eclipse so, as many others have said so far, YDI.

Sounds like a pretty simple dilemma if you ask me
