I live under a training/exercise route and I was finally standing next to a window during a flyover; it was flying low enough for me to ID it (and see the sun reflecting off of the canopy).
So frickin loud it vibrated my whole building

I really wish I had been holding my phone because it was absolutely close enough to the ground that I could've gotten distinguishable pics of it, even with just a cell phone camera. I would've missed it if I'd gone to grab my phone though.

I am apparently working in the flightpath that Boeing uses for test flights from the St Louis Plant. Got overflown by an Eagle last month and a pair of Hornets a couple weeks ago.

That's awesome, I'd love to see hornets fly at some point but I'm pretty far from the ocean or any Boeing factory. The training route I live under isn't used super often, we only get flyovers 2 or 3 times a year and every time until now I've been indoors and away from a properly angled window.
And (I assume) it's always strike eagles over us, since that's what they have at the nearest base (which is still very far away).

Ugh, Carp, seriously? Your admin power trip is like the annoying kid who just discovered a can of spray paint. You're vandalizing the user experience with your overblown sense of authority. Do you honestly think people are here to witness your one-person show?
Newsflash: This isn't your personal playground. Users aren't here to applaud your admin theatrics; they just want to use the darn site without feeling like they're under your microscopic rule. Your heavy-handed approach is turning this place into a digital dictatorship, and trust me, no one's voting for you.
It's like you're the captain of the S.S. Delusion, steering full speed into an iceberg of user dissatisfaction. Soon, you'll be the ruler of an empire of one—congratulations, I guess? So, before this digital Titanic sinks, maybe dial back the power trips, Carp. The only thing you're building here is a monument to your own isolation.
