My place on the Moon

epgc3fyqirnbsx

I was fortunate enough to be given an acre on the moon this christmas

However, I am completely lost as to what to do with it
Any suggestions?

There is also the issue of adverse possesion (squatters rights for you uneducated swine) and this has caused me sleepless nights as I am unsure as to how to asert my property rights and prevent Pat Kenny from using it as a garden...

Give the acre to Starla. Homeless problem solved. She can find herself a little moonman. Boyfriendless problem solved.

sorry

How can someone sell/gift a piece of the moon. It's not theirs to give away. You might as well sell the planet Jupiter down your local for a tenner. Or sell London Bridge to an american tourist

Hydroponics.

You can solve world hunger without soil, but there are still some logistical problems like lack of water but its nothing that can't be figured out.

You could hire Pat Kenny to run your hydroponic empire and he wouldn't be able to squat as he's your employee. And it means he wouldn't be here, which is an added bonus.

Star Bingo

lunacy.

if you'd believe.. mcGurk owns a piece of the moon :pac:

bonerm

Joking aside I've always wondered how it is legally possible to "sell the moon" or "sell stars in outer space" as essentially you are selling a person nothing for 'real' money. I mean does the seller have to possess some proof of ownership before they can sell it on? Conversely could some unscrupulous soul knowingly take advantage of the novelty transaction by buy some of the moon and then suing the seller on the grounds that the they were sold stolen goods etc.....?

(oh yeah, I think you should plant m+m's on your acre OP)

No one technically owns the moon, so you actually got nothing. Some guy in the US claimed ownership of it years ago but the UN ignored him because he is an idiot. Regardless he's been licensing moon estate agents ever since.
Now like most idiots he's rich.

After googling Hydroponics I think you may be on to something. But now I wish I was giften an acre on Mars instead and I could melt their ice caps (saw it on total recall, very doable)

Hang on to it, after the recession is over it will be worth tens of punts

It's just a scam, how can anyone possible lay claim to land on the moon? Who gave this so called 'real estate agent' the right to do so? Under what country's jurisdiction would it fall? Where are the international treaties? There are none. If man ever colonises the moon it'll never be recognised by the law. They're even selling land on Mars and Venus, c'moon people you can't be so naive.

I think I'll claim ownership of Mars. I want a bit of that ice cap action and I see no reason to let Richard Branson have it.

Rent it out for advertising space... assuming it's the bright side of the moon.
If it's the dark side of the moon, you can charge parking fees for the aliens who are secretly spying on us.

But on the Moon, it takes about 14 days for the morning to come, so it'll be quite awkward.

Say you have discovered oil and some country will bomb the **** out of it and set up a McDonalds & Starbucks nearby.

Jesus Wept

Dear Slasher,

I hope this post finds you well.

I got an acre of moon land at christmas about 10 years ago from my sister, have posted about it before too. Considered selling but no one was savvy enough to make an reasonable offer.

You are welcome over to my plot anytime Slasher for hang sandwiches, a flask of tae and whatever jaffa cakes I can find to hand.
Send me your coordinates and we'll see if you are nearby, I don't have mine to hand but I'll check when I do.

Yours Sincerely, your neighbour,
The-Rigger

The moon dude would sue the pants off you and I doubt you can make any claim to the ocean floor either.

Nice try Tara.

whatsamsn

Hahahaha
Just so I get this straight:

- Someone set up a website selling parts of something that could never be rightfully owned or sold (moon in this case)
- selling parts to either totally stupid people or people willing to buy parts for a joke (stupid too)
- but since no one can actually own the moon, it is not illegal to sell so called parts?

Jesus Wept

Why can't someone own the moon?

whatsamsn

So rigger you are saying I can set up for own website tomorrow selling parts of the moon and or other planets?

and its all legal?

Jesus Wept

No, someone already laid claim to it, you're a bit late.
You can try though.

whatsamsn

But I just did a bit of research hahaah.
More than one person "claimed" it :P

RichieC

Who owns the moon that they can be selling bits of it? I know the yanks tend to believe it's theirs but that's patently ridiculous.

galwayrush

Can we send Bertie and his fellow rats there? I can't think of any other use for the land.

Elohim

If ya ever get to your acre make sure to pick up some of that nice green moon money
