(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay, long story short I was cruising around with some friends this past Friday (August the 5th). We were in the northern part of our county which is notorious for bad weather. Not that I'm trying to say we don't get wicked shit in south county but it was all sunshine and rainbows up north. I get a text from my father saying we had a lightning strike in the backyard. Turns out it hit our fence closest to my room. It wrecked the section of fence it hit, did some damage to our pool, and slight damage to the rain gutter -- which is almost unnoticeable. It took down our cable television and internet until today.

It also destroyed our cable modem and router. And my glorious PC got raped. Yes, I am running surge protectors. Specifically APC battery backups w/ surge protection. Needless to say without internet I was practically losing my mind. I'm an introvert so I need my 'recharging' time after a lot of social interaction and I wasn't getting it. But I should be fine because my piece of shit laptop survived lmao.

Any of y'all have similar experiences?
