  11. What? on McCain Asks For Committee On Wikileaks, Anonymous · · Score: 1

    It appears that with so many people with mobile-devices with inbuilt cameras and such today, filming all sorts of weird & inappropriate stuff up close (sometimes too close).. When snapping UFO's in your immediate vicinity: the unwritten rule is to: a) get back into your car. b) drive 100 miles away. c) locate yourself behind some type of dirty plate glass window (preferably somewhere where there's lots of people screaming/yelling) d) start shaking the camera violently (in preparation of taking the shot) e) check that zoom is all the way out. e) take the shot.
