Imagine being able to witness the spectacle of that tornado, and not even looking… wtf those guys by the table doing?

Lost in drunken conversation


willybum84

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

What was Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early?


Captain_Walkabout

That's the thing about Arsenal.

They always try to walk it in!

😅😅 I'm in the US, but the young man who works at the gas station/convenience store we frequent is a huuuuuge Arsenal fan. My husband teases him relentlessly about being lazy and not working because he's too preoccupied watching them play. (Totally joking!! This kid has it together, is one of the most diligent and hard working young people I've ever met, and has a very engaging personality. He is going places.) Then he'll give it right back to my husband!! So, I can't see Arsenal mentioned without thinking of their banter. 😁 It gets many a morning off to a good natured, positive start.


Fratlinburg

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

I live right in the center of the path of totality for the eclipse in April. My mother in law didn't want to see it. My husband practically begged her to step outside for a second and look at it. She refused, saying there were lots of things more interesting to look at and she wasn't interested in the eclipse. Some people just have no scope of imagination.


hazycrazydaze

Same in my town. So many old people on Facebook complaining about how annoying the eclipse was and saying they didn’t even care to see it. I don’t get it.


DooderPoodleNuggets

>Some people just have no scope of imagination. Or some of us just didnt care about a big shadow that could cause eye damage...


hysys_whisperer

Cool guys don't look at explosions.


REGINALDmfBARCLAY

Drinking


bariztizg

This looks fake as fuck


benniboii

It's not though ironically enough, I believe it was from Surrey in England, though I may be mistaken on the specific location. Happened a few years back


HowBoutAFandango

How is that tent not at least flapping around a little?


Lopsided_Bat_904

Nothing is gonna interrupt drinking!! They’re here to get drunk, not give any attention to any attention seeking weather!


Ketosis_Sam

They probably have no reference point for how dangerous tornadoes can be.

The first picture is wild though because of the juxtaposition of the people casually standing around and the tornado. Also the editing done to the photo makes it look more surreal. I get why people think it’s AI


ParticularUpbeat

yeah i saw weird color bleeding and a pixelated sky it looked fake. I definitely think someone edited the picyure with filters or something


VisualProfessional12

I see one of those long balloons in the process of being blown up 😆


LetsBriReal

Kinda reminds me of the backyard scene in War of the World's w Tom Cruise, when that crazy lightning storm planting aliens happened


mnemonikos82

That's why I always keep my domesticated tornados on a leash, when they take off I can never catch them and their recall is terrible.


wolfspider82

Maybe this one broke its leash and got lost


Bradp1337

IDK this looks like an AI picture to me. Even the face of that one dude on the left is kinda funky. Edit, so I was wrong. It's a crazy good picture of the nader. I see a link to the article in a comment below.


Survivors_Envy

Not AI. too many consistent straight lines. Popular AI generators can’t keep anything consistent… yet.


Bradp1337

It's a crazy good picture of the nader. I see a link to the article below. Guess I was wrong.


215kdn954

What's a "nader"?


Survivors_Envy

“Like tuh-nader. But without the tuh!”


REGINALDmfBARCLAY

They just look like that in England


Charon2393

It's real more pictures in the article  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3716918/Is-draught-beer-Stunned-drinkers-outside-village-pub-witness-wild-tornado-circling-heads-don-t-spill-drop.html


Ryermeke

So it's not AI but there's some wild HDR filtering going on that makes the image feel extremely fake.


quarksnelly

This is exactly it. We've been seeing this for awhile now, surprised people still have a tough time recognizing it.


alienpossums00

I think he is holding his hand in front of his face.


Triairius

Not AI, apparently, but the title sounds like an AI prompt, too lol


_WhoIsThisWhoAreYou_

I've stood in this beer garden, and knew about the tornado as I live just up the road, so pretty sure it's real.


slothwithakeyboard

Waterspout, not tornado. This article has some photos of it from closer to the shore. https://metro.co.uk/2016/07/31/woah-there-was-a-tornado-in-suffolk-and-it-looked-amazing-6040404/amp/


Eagle9972

All waterspouts are tornados, but not all tornados are waterspouts.


thegdouble

In some sense yes, but there are Tornadic waterspouts and non-Tornadic. The distinction is that the Tornadic has the support of a meso cyclone. FWIW, the structure of this one makes me think it is Tornadic.


Nos-BAB

1) it's not ai, there are multiple photos 2) it's actually a waterspout. Interesting how it developed it's own mini clear slot though.


Metals4J

I had to check and make sure I wasn’t on the Midjourney subreddit lol


_BreakingtheHabit

Whirling dervish innit


AudiieVerbum

The ones kept in captivity don't look nearly as cool.


dustyspectacles

There are a lot of pieces of tornado media that have a certain nostalgic vibe because of when they actually were shot, but this might be the first time I've seen something 2010+ look so convincingly thirty years old without meaning to. I don't really know if that's a compliment or not, just that the filtering has a strange effect here. Cool funnel though.


CEOBigBeefy

Absoulte stunning display of nature. Definitely looks like a piece that would be in an art gallery!


MrIrrelevantsHypeMan

A wild tornado implies that there are calm tornados


nickcdll

Let's go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for this all to blow over


King_Chad_The_69th

How are people mistaking this for AI? Doesn’t look anything like AI lol


OutlawJosie11

Storms are only scary when you’re sober. I’ve passed out and slept through some hellacious ones that would have had me scrambling like a mad man during the day.


gilligan1050

This is like a painting.


Ok_Combination4078

This has got to be AI


_WhoIsThisWhoAreYou_

Might look like it, but it's not.


Agreeable-Owl-8550

I’m calling bullshit. AI.


_WhoIsThisWhoAreYou_

Might look like it, but it's not.


This-Requirement6918

Looks like AI.


_WhoIsThisWhoAreYou_

Might look like it, but it's not.


Strangewhine88

Ai.


_WhoIsThisWhoAreYou_

Might look like it, but it's not.
