No, the government will beam harmful rays into your eyes that make them hurt and force you to look away. Wake up, sheeple
All free thinkers challenge the Sky Orb.
What, you're going to let the guvment tell you what to do?

Being stabbed in the eyes by solar rays just sounds badass.
"Stabbed in the Eyes by Solar Rays"
Sounds like a good indie band name.
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!
I'll save everyone from the orb in the sky
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.
I do question it. I stare it down every morning to keep it in its place. You're welcome.
I am over here, Sir. That is a telephone pole.
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.

Right, thank you for the heads-up. :)
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
sungazing and grounding are real
At least it leaves us alone during the night /(**)_
Big orb bright, hurt eyes.
You're telling me that when you look at the sun, the sun looks back?
You can see the eyes of the sun?!?!
I question that it is an orb, that it is in the "sky", as well as your definition of "direct eye contact".
You don't know me, I yell and argue with that shiny SoB every day!
The sun is actually fake. All Illuminati lies.
What are "they" trying to hide from us?
pokes some holes in a thick piece of cardboard with a sewing needle
I'll make direct eye contact with whatever I want.
