I'm curious what they think a lightning strike is.

god playing craps with the lizard king, who is always below the earth’s crust right at the moment when lightning is striking the ground.

Fuck listening to science about how "Lightning is a natural phenomenon consisting of electrostatic discharges occurring through the atmosphere between two electrically charged regions. One or both regions are within the atmosphere, with the second region sometimes occurring on the ground. Following the lightning, the regions become partially or wholly electrically neutralized."

This sounds so much better. What reminds when either one of them roll snake eyes?
