Your Eclipse Questions, ANSWERED

The eclipse is almost upon us, and there's a lot that people don't know, like "Who really killed JFK?" and "How many mice are living behind the oven?" You submitted questions, here are the answers:


Why does the solar eclipse happen?


A solar eclipse happens because God is angry with us.

Like pissed. Really pissed.

Humans have displeased God, so as punishment, the Moon will pass between the Earth and the Sun. This is a punishment, obviously, because big shadows are bad and scary.

 There's no way to know why exactly why God is mad, as biblical scholars are split. Most, however, believe he is pissed off because of either gay people or The Emoji Movie.

Should I look directly at the solar eclipse?


Do whatever you want, I'm not your dad.

Unless...

What if I am your dad? If I am, then you SHOULD look at the solar eclipse. I want you to go blind. I don't want you to have to look upon the face of the father that abandoned you, even if it was unintentional.

I know that's selfish of me, but the shame is just overbearing. I don't want you to be able to see me watching you from afar while you're playing in the park with your friends. If you don't see me then I won't have to approach you and apologize for not being there to teach you how to play catch or make crepes.

What can I do to see the eclipse if my employer won't let me leave work to see it?


If your employer won't let you see the eclipse, challenge them to a duel. If your job has a "no dueling" policy, tell them that your religion requires that you put on dumbass glasses and look up at the sky.

To do this, you'll have to make sure your religion seems legitimate. You'll need some sort of Bible, so get a blank notebook and write "Holy Book of Putting on Dumbass Glasses and Looking Up at the Sky." You'll also have to establish a website and/or Facebook page to make it look like your religion is actually established. Do this by creating events such as "Vacation Holy Book of Putting on Dumbass Glasses and Looking Up at the Sky School" and "Movie Night: Putting on Dumbass Glasses and Looking Up at the Sky's Not Dead." Lastly, create between one and one thousand deities that you can pretend to show devotion to. Some deity name ideas are Dumbassio Glassesion, Looking Up at the Sky Fella, and Phil. If you make it believable, your employer will be forced to allow you to put on dumbass glasses and look up at the sky.


Or you could just watch the eclipse through the window.

Who would win in a fight, the Sun or the Moon?


The Moon would win in a game of chess because the Sun doesn't have hands.

The Sun would win in a dance off, but only if they were able to pick the songs.

Neither would win in a sailboat race across the Pacific Ocean, because they would both end up working together and realizing that their friendship is what really matters, and not their silly grade-school rivalry.

How long can we expect the organizers of the eclipse to black out the Sun? Do the counter protesters have a permit?


The protest will last until the Earth gives Buzz Aldrin back to the Moon.

The counter protesters do have a permit, but they have been confined to a small section of the Earth called the Western Hemisphere.

Is this the liberal media trying to erase our memory?

The mainstream media don't want me to tell you this, but                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 because if you found out                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  with a spatula, or                                                                                     wearing a tutu

CULTURE MUSINGS: How is the new Aladdin different from the original?

This Memorial Day weekend, Disney released Aladdin, the live-action version of one of its most popular movies based on the life of U.S. President Warren G. Harding's youngest son. While the adaption mostly stays true to the original, some eagle-eyed fans might have noticed these changes in Guy Ritchie's remake. The events of the live action film do not end up causing the Hindenburg disaster. It is heavily implied in the 1992  Aladdin  film that the main character inadvertently creates a chain reaction through history that end up resulting in the 1937 explosion of the Hindenburg, starting with a chase scene at the beginning of the film. As Aladdin runs from palace guards, he bumps into a man who looks very similar to Ludwig Durr, the designer of the Hindenburg. John Musker and Ron Clements, the directors of the animated film, confirmed in several interviews that the man is indeed the airship designer's ancestor, and that Aladdin's collision with him has dire conse...

5 tips for being an introvert and still leading an active social life

A lot of people think being an introvert means you are anti-social. You tell them that you’re an introvert, and they’ll say something like, “Oh, you must hate people,” or “Please don’t consume my blood!” While these comments are frustrating, it’s important to remember that being an introvert is nothing to be ashamed of - it just means you live a lifestyle that’s a little different from that of humans that still have beating hearts. As an introvert, you know that self care is important - so here are five tips to keep you functioning! Don't be afraid to say no! Here's something I wish I was told more when I was growing up: if someone asks you to hang out at a restaurant that has garlic or mirrors, YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO. Not everyone enjoys looking for their reflection, only to see the blank wall behind them, reminding you that you don't have a soul - and that's okay! Telling someone that you can't hang out doesn't make you heartless - the curse that trappe...

My vacation!

I don't get to travel much, but when I do I never know the best way to share my journey. Twitter doesn't give you enough characters, and Facebook is too filled with political posts these days. Instagram banned me for direct messaging photos of my feet to celebrities, so I decided to share my adventures on my blog. I hope you enjoy! Have you ever seen anything so stunning? I haven't because my eyes melted. When I arrived I was immediately taken aback by the view! While I had heard that the scenery would blow me away, I didn't think that my skin would literally fall off of my bones! Found some unwelcome creatures where I stayed... I wish the hotel I stayed at had called an exterminator before I arrived... yuck! The facility was otherwise fine (though the pool of eternally burning fire could have been a little bigger), but I CANNOT stand finding critters where I sleep. I'm sure you wouldn't be able to sleep either if you had these guys crawling under your...

Web-site Musings' Official 2020 Endorsement

I have covered politics before, in both opinion and factual pieces, but have always refrained from making endorsements because no one paid me to.
