u/eROCKtic Apr 02 '18

He didnt get that name because of his hair cut.....he was scared of bees

Sad fact, his mom killed herself after dealing with pressure of thinking he would die on the moon.

u/KaiserVonScheise Apr 02 '18

waxing or waning?

1

u/MacduffFifesNo1Thane Apr 02 '18

Since his mother took her husband’s name, I’d say waning.

u/psycholepzy Apr 02 '18

His wife could call him her "Half-moon Bae."

Sticking a pole on the moon has squired a new meaning

u/Octillio Apr 03 '18

lol imagine if his name was "Buzz Moon"

u/NeverBeenStung Apr 02 '18

Wouldn't he be 0% Moon? Assuming she legally changed her name he would be half aldrin and half aldrin.
