    OP, be the hero we all need, stare directly at the sun and show it who’s the boss for us, the little people. Don’t blink and win that starring contest!

      Seriously, in like fifth grade was the first time someone told me vehemently not to stare into the sun. Of course, before then, I never even considered the idea. So shortly after that I stared into the sun for long as I could tolerate. I saw spots for days after that.

      Yes, I agree all non believers in the orb to stare intently at it. Prove the orb believers wrong.

      staring at orb comment is not legal advise. Any damage received from Orb Lord, for daring to glimpse the brilliance of the orb, must be dealt with directly with orb

    You’re allowed to, but you’ve been warned not to if you enjoy sight.

      Sight is just the price we pay for the eldritch knowledge* staring at the sun gives us.

      * Should not have stared at the sun.

        (you need to escape the asterisk with a “\” in front of it if you don’t want it to be formatted into a bullet point since it’s at the beginning of a new line)

    In France (and probably other countries too) there is an actual real group of people advocating that we can get all our nutrients from the sun and don’t need to eat, they also claim they stare at the sun every day for hours. They make youtube video, and have lots of followers…

    Of course they claim exactly what is said in this joke.

      That’s a Professor Scott Bugg fact! Stare at the sun for at least 3 minutes a day to fill up on water

    I question that it is an orb, that it is in the “sky”, as well as your definition of “direct eye contact”.
