Mustache mission
A mission from Elvis (indirectly): find origin and etymology of phrase “crazy moon language”.
393 hits on Google. Some of them appeared to stem from Things to Say When You’re Losing a Technical Argument, a list from 2001. However, “crazy moon language” showed up on Usenet as early as 1996 — on alt.tv.the-tick.
In episode 27, season 3, “That Mustache Feeling”, the Tick has a mustache and says “I can’t read your crazy moon language”, confirmed by TICKisms. The episode aired on September 14, 1996.
There was another mission, but it was more difficult and I chose not to accept.
