What you read about the asterism is not overly significant. What is significant is that when you go to Google and type in Auriga smiley face, your name/post is the only true hit.

Just goes to show you how careful you have to be with getting information off the internet. Just suppose if you were to call that same asterism the laughing asterism, your name would be the only hit associated with the laughing asterism and it would appear that you named it.
FWIW, I like looking at it and if it hadn't been for Carol I would have never known about it or seen it. And I've looked at that spot hundreds of times.
About a year ago or more, I named three asterisms that I found with giant binoculars. Anybody ever look at them?
Google the Dinosaur asterism, the Orion asterism and the Lizard asterism, see what you find. IIRC, in some earlier notes I also referred to the first two as the Trojan Horse asterism and the Hour Glass asterism. Could be these names are only in my notes.
