Your eyes don’t perceive it as being as bright, so you can sit and look at it. But the UV light still burns a hole in your retina.

so essentially treat it as if you'd be staring at the sun normally

You shouldn’t be staring directly at the sun with regular sunglasses under any circumstance lol

I was zoning out on a car ride once and stared at the sun for like 3 seconds before I looked away, nothing happened.

This is my signature, there are many others like it, but this one is mine.
If you take 110% of what I say seriously then you're gonna have a bad time.

I agree. I'm gonna take 2 seconds to look probably. Stories I'm hearing of people getting blindness usually start with that person looking at it for 20+ seconds.

It's more dangerous only because you can't tell damage is being done until it's too late.

Staring at the sun is really not that serious. As long as you don't do it for ridiculously long periods of time daily, your fine watching the eclipse.

I really like The Offspring but I haven't listened to enough of their music. I should do that at some point.
