Lunarian

Lunarian, n. An inhabitant of the moon, as distinuished from Lunatic, one whom the Moon inhabits. The Lunarians have been described by Lucian, Locke and other observers but without much agreement. For example, Bragellos avers their anotomical identity with Man, but Professor Newcomb says they are more like the hill tribes of Vermont.

2005 Update: One who subsists on moonlight, a popular diet in Hollywood, Beverly Hills and the fashionable circles of large cities throughout the West. Adherents can be identified because they are thinnest when the moon is new. Movies are generally filmed on moonless nights, not, as some have surmised, to avoid harsh shadows but to reap them.
