I think lightning would be crazy to anyone who never experienced a planet with it. Like, "WTF, sometimes your sky does what?"
In the Bay of Fundy, Canada we have the highest tides in the world (53 feet high). It's enough to make some of the tributary rivers flow backward with the rising tide. I've seen it my whole life but it still amazes me to see a harbour completely empty of water with boats sitting on the bottom waiting for the tide to come back in.
I live in an area with sea but almost no tide (although wind direction can have a pretty big effect on water level) and I have always felt that tides are weird man.
Yeah I grew up inland and tides are weird
woah XKCD is still making comics?
