The moon is cooler because you can look at it without burning your eyes

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's also cooler because the temperature is lower.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Which is why you can look at it qithout burning your eyes

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Pfft Sirius, aka the North Star, is nearly twice as hot as the sun and I can look at it without burning my eyes. Boom roasted!

Sirius, aka the North Star

I'm, uh, not sure about that.

Except for those few times when it's in front of the sun.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If they're lined up just right, you still can! Only for a few minutes though.

The most incorrect thing here is saying that the moon gives us light at night

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago

Yeah! The moon is actually creating a vacuum that sucks up all the light. That's why the sun has to chase it away and give us new light. Damn moon, taking all our light! FUCK YOU MOON!

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I'd argue it's the only correct thing though. Sure, it's through reflection, but reflection is absorption and re-emission so the light really comes from the moon.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

No, the night part is wrong. The moon isnt only visible at night

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

He didn't say it was though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It appearing during the day in no way conflicts with “it provides light at night”. Those are both true.

The KenM energy is strong with this one.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago

Wow this is some Ken M level of logic

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Oh yeah this is total bologna. Everyone knows that the moon is made of cheese!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

You're confusing me, is it bologna or is it cheese?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Not a problem, cheese reflects light.

Source: I just put some on my sandwich and I can see it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

Who the fuck wants light at night?
I wanna sleep, or see the stars.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

This is what happens when mom gives her noisy brat a tablet to look at while she finishes her homework

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

These comments failing to parse the wording of this statement are hilarious.

We are a doomed species.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Besides the sun is way too hot in the daytime but totally cold at night, practically useless

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

It's like a turducken, you unwrap some stupid and there's a whole different stupid under it carefully prepared, I love it, well done

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Same with noisy underperformers vs quiet workers

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The moon is technically a mirror. It reflect enough light to get to us. It may not be completely smooth but it's large and close enough for us to see. You can think of it like someone's forehead reflecting light. The skin my be rough but it's large enough for us to see the light reflected.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

i would appreciate this joke more if it wasn't shamelessly stolen from F for Effort

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

The moon is just the sun’s backboard.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Nah my man you've got it all wrong. The moon is a lazy bitch that only gives us little bit of light. The sun's the boss.
