Fake Memes

Either this person lives at the North Pole, or they've mistaken their Windows Media Player visualizer for an actual astronomical phenomenon. Those aren't northern lights—that's what happens when you leave your screensaver running with the curtains open! The blurry purple-green swirls have more in common with a psychedelic desktop background than actual aurora borealis. Next time, maybe step outside before announcing your "backyard discovery" to the internet. Pro tip: real northern lights don't pixelate when you get too close to the screen!
