Rewarding stupidity is not a good thing, not even as a joke. It isn't even an original idea . It's like paying for the potato salad knock-offs.

for someone who claims to own the Sun she is not very bright.

Does the sun cause droughts?

This kind of behavior should result in a few months in jail. Sure, it's laughable, but it's also costing expensive tax payer resources for a bullshit exercise.

You make it sound complicated. It's a sphere, just have all coordinate points act as lines perpendicular to the core. You have the same plot, and it expands over time. So really, it's a great i...

The court case isn't whether she owns the sun, it is whether removing her plots from eBay was valid or not.

That's a fair point, but does she really think a court is going to agree with her that she owns the sun? And I'm sure the settlement was just a cheaper option than going to court... But I guess I...

Coordinate system. Latitude and longitude. Even if the surface moves, the area you "own" stays the same.

Not to mention countless other loonies could also "have rights to the Sun" if they have their own documents or if they live in a different country.
/u/PrimalZed on Woman who claims she owns the Sun sues Ebay after she was banned from selling Sun's plots on the site
I think it's less that she's stupid, and more that she's trying to scam stupid people. I doubt she drinks her own kool-aid in actually thinking this is legit and sensible.
