I just googled for reports on the eclipse's aftermath the other day, and there seemed to be noting about widespread eye damage (or I did not search hard enough).

It was interesting how most of the post-eclipse reporting was hijacked by a certain politician not wearing his glasses (probably he only looked for a split second anyway). Anyway, this eclipsed (sorry) any reports about the actual event, which must have been one of the largest events in history based on the number of spectators (I saw estimates of 20 million people across the US).

Just like the picture of the pope not smiling for a moment.

Or when the Queen of England is at an event and doesn't smile for a moment.

Or "woman wears shoes"

or "look at the number of people in this place compared to this other picture where the numbers were different at a different time of the day"

it's all so tiresome
