For the last couple of months now people different places on the globe have stated that they have noticed "abnormal" behaviour from the moon. People have noticed it dissapearing all together, rising and setting in the incorrect place etc. However at the same time as other people have quite rightly pointed out from their perspective it is normal and there are no unusual behaviours.
This is the whole point, it is a subjective observation, and people really need to start asking, not why the moon is acting peculiar but why is it that only some people are observing it. The truth is out there, you just need to dig a bit deeper.
How could anyone show "proof" that something does not, or did not, happen? Think about it, prove a negative.
Could you please bring 'proof' to the table that there are no anomalies taking place throughout the world or the universe?
All observations are 'subjective', there is no such thing as an objective observation.
That's exactly my point in discussing this with ngchunter that it is 'subjective' to the people observing
I would bet that ngchunter has a far better understanding of astronomy than either you or I. It is of my opinion that his posts have been spot on in the past from what I have read.
and his view that night is different to ours!

I watch the skys every night, I have seen some weird things but nothing like this. The moon was 4hrs off. It rose at 2pm central Texas time. It all so came rose from the south west (more south then west). Its not supposed to rise in the south west. Its supposed to rise in the South east (more east then south). This has happened 2 days in a row.

Check your location settings on stellarium, check the time zone setting, check to make sure that you're really seeing the true horizon, not an obstructed horizon, etc. If you do it right you'll find that the moon is not out of place at all.

Here's a graphic showing how the orientation of the "lit part" of the appears to change as then night goes on. The arrow indicates the "top" of the moon at the time of moon rise.
The graphic is a bit over-simplified and exaggerated to make the point, but the concept is accurately shown. This is how the Moon would appear to move through the sky from the mid-latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere:
