Don't you feel frustrated (self.ufos)

Hey there.

As the title says, don't you feel frustrated whenever a new video comes along and it's just a blurry pixel doing mundane things?

15 years ago I saw something extraordinary, something that I tear up by just remembering. I won't go into details because why would I? I'm a stranger on the internet and my experience has no weight cept for me. But I know what I saw, and I truly wonder why nobody ever caught something like that with a camera.

Video after video after images come out and all that I'm left saying to myself is "that's not it".

I'm just frustrated that the hallucination hypothesis is the best explanation for my sighting at this point.

how do you cope with that?

Just shy of 3 yrs ago glowing ball spheres were hovering over the street over a long drive I took into the mountains. They didn't move. They were undeniably higher than street lamps. I finally saw them again recently in some of the "drone" images, which is what I assumed they were despite being over many miles apart, I still think they are, the most diabolical creature on the planet is humans followed closely by cats, cats don't build drones yet... my point is; You know what you know, no one else has to believe you experienced something for you to have actually experienced it. That being said, there is times I would have traded either testicle for a quality live video feed.

At times I wish I had an answer, even if it was something prosaic. Anything is better than defaulting to hallucination haha.

I was checking out closely at the drone situation recently but they're were moving as...drones. I know all the questions and mystery surrounding them but they still move like something that you can just dismiss and say "they're just kids using drones for lulz".

What I saw had instant acceleration. I can't dismiss it that easily, save for the hallucination hypotheses. The worst part is this is a taboo topic so you get weird looks if you try and talk about it in public
