Always with the “UFOs are just weather balloons” shtick.
Any possible connection to the helicopter crash yesterday?
Picture: clearly a balloon
Military: “It’s a balloon.”
Man who took picture: “I guess they don’t want us to know what it was.”
Dude… it’s a damned balloon. Look at your picture.
…This light sounds above the houses on the ground
This illumination visited upon the whole land…

…The lord is coming soon
Unmarked helicopters, hovering
They said it was a weather balloon
It was a weather balloon
It was a weather balloon
It was a weather balloon
It was a weather balloon
99 knights of the air
Ride super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone’s a superhero
Everyone’s a Captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scrambling the summer sky
As only 1 white balloon goes by
I would have thought the Men in Black were on the job:
Kay:
All right, Beatrice, there was no alien. The flash of light you saw in the sky was not a UFO. Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus.
Are the Heene’s at it again?
I saw something in the sky. Others examined the pictures and did comparative determination, said something about obvious wires and exact matches to known NOAA weather balloon types… hell they even cut out fabric samples and looked at them under a microscope to understand the material similarities, all that science shit.
But me, alls I know is I just looked up and it didn’t look like no balloon I ever blowed up for my kids party… so yeah, a real mystery there.
That’s exactly how it played for me, too. You can even see the rope or strings hanging from the damn thing.
sigh Dude is a doofus.
Obviously the planet Venus
Thats the most balloonish balloon that ever balooned.
Seriously, right? Something is wrong with that guy.
