I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too
Edit: Usually these kind of posts only used to have excerpts from books or ancient proverbs, but now I am seeing a lot more quotes from shows/movies/games are also resonating with people. It’s pretty cool to see.
When camping, late at night, a buddy told another one of my buddies:
“If you can see my face, I can’t see anything”.
I thought it was hilarious and concise and it still sticks with me. If your flashlight is illuminating someone’s face, they are being blinded!
This extends to all kinds of directional light sources, notably headlights on cars and bicycles.
