What's so 'strange' about it, you ask? Well, it's the fact that the moon is not f*cking blue. Have ya'll gone blind?
A few explanations are available online as to why we're calling it a "Blue Moon" when it's the exact same color as usual. But being a lazy ass, I didn't read any of them.You'll find the links below, if you're really into that.
Now here are a few theories about the Blue Moon phenomenon, and what it is really all about:
Theory Number 1: The Moon Hates Pluto
So a few days ago, this little space rock called Pluto flew by, reminding us how awesome it is, and why we shouldn't have removed it from our list of planets.
(That was a dick move, btw. Pluto totally deserves better.)
For a moment, we were so totally captivated by Pluto's new look that we regretted breaking up with it in the first place.
Like a jealous lover, the Moon felt it was being overshadowed by this other heavenly body. That's why we're having a Blue Moon. It's the Moon being an attention-seeker.
(Ugh. We see you every night, Moon.)
Theory Number 2: Werewolves
You know how werewolves only come to hang out when there's a full moon? Yeah, those assholes never show up at parties.
But an unusual breed of werewolves only appear during the Blue Moon. F*ck yeah, blue werewolves!
(A dangerous combination of a bloodthirsty wolf and a Smurf)
This theory supports the existence of Smurfwolves. Hell yes.
Theory Number 3: The Moon is Sad
Maybe the moon is literally feeling blue! Maybe it's going through a break-up or something. Maybe 'bae' won't talk to him/her.
(*insert sad song*)
Oh come on. You'll find someone better, Moon.
Okay, I can only really count to three. So that's all the theories I got. Someone please explain this Blue Moon business to me!
And please don't make me read these informative links. P.S. I don't own these.
