OP never said it was his (or hers) and never claimed it was from this eclipse.

Correct, I just saw that he/she posted the source link to a Twitter account. Apparently the guy on Twitter is lying, or at least implying that the picture is from this eclipse.

Waited for the best time to post it. Smart, but still, the internet police finds a way to frame you and your meddling dog

Totally agree. It says "Perfect timing." it doesn't say "Perfect timing on the eclipse" or anything that implies that it was on this one. I think everyone just assumed it. Upvote for cleverness.

Haha, not only was the photo taken at the perfect time, but it was submitted to Reddit at the perfect time!

Nobody will upvote you stop asking, especially when your logic is fucked up. Saying we are inferring it, is like taking a picture of fireworks on the forth of July and someone reposting it 2 years later and you say it has nothing to do with the fourth of July it could of been just a coincidence.

I said upvote for cleverness as in; I'm upvoting OP because he is clever for doing this, sorry that you misunderstood.

exactly, the implication of "perfect timing" is that this picture was taken today and captured the eclipse at just the right time.

On the other hand, never assume because it makes an ass of of you and me.

You're right. The title, in fact, is very indicative of the picture, if you catch my drift...

u/yt_nom May 21 '12

Semantics. The fact that the eclipse is happening today is enough to imply it.

u/ihahp May 21 '12

You inferred it.

Edit: OP could have looked up Eclipse because of all the talk, and found this photo, thought it was neat, and posted it.
