Why did everyone start having those weird suns and moons w/ faces? It seems most prominent in the 90s but I sometimes see a sun with a face in a yard and I wonder

also, keep in mind that people did not fully realize that they were able to make individual decisions until 2004, so if everybody else was doing it, you kind of had to.

Goons Are Gifts

Back in the days, people had to find explanations to the myths of the world. A burning, hot ball of light in the sky, moving around? A cold, white small ball that even has various shapes?

People assumed it must be the gods that watch over them, judging from afar. People sacrificed living things to them, hoping that they never disappear. It's an intense topic that requires deep understanding of the basics of ancient religions, so let's start this science paper with a look on more advanced civilizations then:

The Aztecs believed that if they begin to massively murder everyone in and around their nation,

best guess w/o any actual research is pop culture's adoption of new age symbolism while removing the spiritual component, leaving safe icons that don't really mean anything

Having lived through the 90s, I can confidently state that nothing whatsoever had any particular significance other than the most mundane sort.

iirc it was because there were gang wars from the late 80s to the early 2000s (prior to the reintroduction of abraded, sandblasted jeans in the mainstream culture) and one was called yung suns and the other gang was called the moonies

it was a bloody battle and turf was marked by the suns and moons in people's yards; sometimes people would get killed over things as small as having a yellow moon or a slightly unhappy sun. terrible; we should really crack down on suns n moons.

That would be bad if the earth had 2 evil cultist gangs that control everything, like who gets white meat/dark meat, whose turn it is to mill the corn, etc

The sun cult wishes to increase the sun and the moon cult wants to make the moon bigger, both are misguided and evil

Sun:
Con:-too hot
-absent during winter (too cold)
-cant populate it (too hot)

Pros:
-makes plants tummies feel nice and full
- water balloon-fight
-popsicles and other icey treats taste better and are more abundant when the sun is out

Pro+Con:
-is made of fire (that can be good or bad, depending on the type of predicament you are in)

-------------------
Moon:
Con's:
cold
-it's a little far away
-Makes wolves badder/eviler

Pro:
-made of cheese, which is where we get it from
-comes in different shapes including a handy hook shape which is nice to sit on (moon is more ergonomic than the sun)
-moonlight won't hurt the soft, pale flesh of average human being while still being effective in terms of luminescence

Make of this as you will.......

it was only 20 years after the first moon landing so people were still way into space

nowadays, we manage to get a legitimate photograph of a celestial body so powerful that it absorbs all traces of light and everyone just photoshops it into memes to post on facebook

moon
- people write poetry about it
- nice to look at
- you can, at great expense, send people there to faff about and fart up their spacesuits

sun
- gives light that lets wheed grow
- too intense for your weak rear end eyes to handle looking at
- will one day smoke the entire planet like a blunt

sorry moon lovers, sun is clearly best. :c00lbert:

nice try but you can't fool me buddy, we all know you really believe that the sun shines out of uranus!

truth is that the sun has only been there since the early days of space flight - what do you think buzz aldrin was doing while armstrong was screwing up his only line??!

Well the textbooks say he was cranking one out during Armstrong's big moment in the sun

But creating and placing the sun in its spot is also pretty plausible too
