I miss the days when it was just a total lunar eclipse. I’d never heard the term “blood moon” until some of my loony Christian friends started using it back in 2015. Sign of the end times and impending economic collapse, you know.

It's not just the "blood moon", every other month or half month there seems to be some other kind of named "moon" that most people have never heard of, let alone used, but someone dug it up and wrote a blurb about it.

Blue moons have been around since... well, you know. I've known about them since before you dropped your diapers on the living room floor. (Ask your mama 'bout that part.) Ain't never heard "🎵 Blue Moooon🎶"? 👴
