Same exact expectation and same exact violation of my expectations. It actually looks like that. In the sky. Huge.

Totally. The second I experienced totality, I instantly understood how it would have been a religious, cosmic experience for early humans who didn't have a scientific understanding of what's going on.

Imagine just going about your day as normal and all of a sudden the sun does that.
