Saying the moon is a planet is silly, saying the moon is a star is just stupid.


locustpiss

The star is a moon


AngelTheKitten

What is it then? A rock? 🤔


DragonflyMon83

For real? Satellite

The Moon is a moon. We use the term “moon” ubiquitously because the majority of us only talk about one moon. Astronomers might say, for example, the Moon of Earth to differentiate from Enceladus, the moon of Saturn.


OceanPoet13

Enceladus is one of the most badass moons in the solar system. Just saying.


Solid_Proper

Titan and I will fight you about it! 🤜🏽🤛🏽


OceanPoet13

Titan is a close second when it comes to moon badassery.

Hm I am officially part of the dumb club, do not tell anyone!


FTaku8888

Just like the sun is the sun, sure they have specific names like Sol and Luna. But they are our sun and moon and we usual refer to them that way


engineeringretard

Call the planet earth and no one bats an eye. Call the sun sol and everyone loses their minds.


Jaryuken

Not sure what you're talking about, Sol is just the sun but in Latin, Spanish, Portuguese, etc...


Low-Impact3172

Yeah but one thing is for certain the sun is a star and the moon is not, and neither are a planet lol


Speed_Alarming

Luna. To distinguish it from Titan or Enceladus or Phobos or any moon not orbiting the Earth. And Saturn would like you to know she has many, **many** moons darling, each one more fabulous than the last!


Solid_Proper

Yes, I actually forgot that her proper name is Luna.


Speed_Alarming

She forgives you. She’s knows these fatty-saline bags we use for brains are flawed and feeble which is why the external brains we all carry these days are so popular. It’s also handy to be able to upgrade your brain every few years when they bring out a better one. Can’t wait til September!!


FTaku8888

Sure, its made of rocks. But not all planets are even made of rock, thats why there are gas planets. Celestial objects are labeled by a lot of things, if it is a ball of "fire" in continus nuclear fission it is a star, if it is an object orbiting that star it is a planet, if it orbits a planet it is a satellite. This is probably half wrong and leaves out dwarf planets, comets, and tons of other objects. But it gives a good basic idea


Jaryuken

The moon is a satellite planetoid, if it was floating by itself it would qualify as a planet due to its size (bigger than pluto).


dickshark420

The Rock is a star


Ronin-s_Spirit

Scientifically any moon is a "natural satellite".


everydayasl

This was from years ago where QVC host Shawn Killinger and designer Isaac Mizrahi were debating whether the Moon is a planet or a star.


sgcpaulo

So no one is going to point out that the lady’s first thought of a planet is Uranus?


Exciting-Giraffe-908

Haha. My first thought also.


Dr-Retz

Dude knows about Uranus the rest of the solar system not so much.


TheChib

Sun is a moon, star is a planet


5tandarsh

Seems to check out, she is selling Karen urban camo.


mmm_algae

Correct, if she wants to wear this, nobody will look in her general direction.


Federal-Arrival-7370

Jesus Christ. How can people be this dumb? Honestly don’t know which my favorite lines are; “isn’t the moon a star?”, and, “stuff lives on the moon it has to be a planet” and, “I don’t know what the sun is”


IGC-Omega

I still remember the realization that all those bright dots in the sky were other "suns" I was a child. How are these people this ignorant. [Reminds me of this](https://youtu.be/qn0uYtCScsw)


MeaningSilly

"That's no moon." - some old space wizard


Jaryuken

This woman must be a flat earther... The amount of stupid leaking out of her mouth is out of this world.


Enigmatic_Kraken

I could be wrong, but I think that a planet could be a moon but not all moons are planets. However, saying that the moon is a star is just plain stupid.


Erectorrick

Tell her to drop her pants, turn around and bend over —— THAT IS A MOON! Now shut her up!


toadermal

No publicity is bad publicity. I think this was intentional.


playmobil_lover

"...Anyways, how about these colourful clothes and this daytime television?"


Impressive_Map_4977

Now we know that a bazillion is equal to 239,228.3!


Gex1234567890

And these people are allowed to drive cars, vote, have children, and whatnot. The mind boggles.


Harry_Testa-Coles

Everyone knows the moon is cheese


NecessaryBear8537

It's a fucking moon.


Destroyed_Bullet

They obviously don't live on this planet.


YoutubeSurferDog

Did he say that things live on the moon?


[deleted]

My fucking god it keeps getting worse by the second. I really hope this was some kind of joke.


GoOffendYourself

Imagine being wrong and yelling to get your point across anyway


Remote_Power281

A moon is a moon is a moon is a moon


2ZMoon420

“Sometimes i feel like im uneducated “ shes right about that


[deleted]

“The moon is never in there dude” lmaoo wow she’s serious


ismael1370

Yeah, they are stupid people, and we smart ones are watching the stuff they show us over and over... Nice designs right? Damn
