There ought to be a pun about Cerberus to make here, but it escapes me.
This demotion, however, is ridiculous. However small it may be, Pluto, with Charon, is quite distinct from Qadgop or Quetzalcoatl or whatever that #10 iceball is called. (I refuse to try to spell it or even call it by the right name; that name looks like the efforts of a creative sixth grader with no idea of how to use the dictionary trying to guess how to spell “choir.” I’d rather honor our own resident Mercotan.)
Boy, this thread has sure gone to the dogs!
…
Quaoar - after the Tongva god of creation. C’mon, everyone knows that.
It looks like NoClueBoy really screwed the pooch on that one then.
You know, I’d bet that if Pluto was part of the inner solar system, folks wouldn’t be so inclined to hike their leg on that puppy. Why, I’d bet that they’d be humping to get a probe to it, but because it’s at the far reaches of the solar system, they consider it to be the runt of the litter.
They are free to use my Alludium Q-39 Space Modulator if they need. Wouldn’t that be splendid? Hmm?
Yup, nobody likes to get Dissed.
Maybe you could if he put his heads together and helped you.
It’s a dog eat dog world.
Anybody hear of a plan to declassify Pluto? That’s fuckin’ goofy!
Let’s put it this way: in a world where dogs can talk, Pluto still can’t. He’s an artifact of a species strain that refuses to evolve. Let’s phase that puppy out for good.
Are you Sirius?
No, Clarabelle is fuckin’ Goofy.
What’s with all the doggy jokes?
Wasn’t Pluto named after some old greek dude?
The Greek dude was Hades. The Romans re-named him Pluto.
And you try coming up with Pluto, god-of-the-underworld jokes, lame or otherwise. See how long that list is.
And Charon was part of the AOR band Styx.
Yeah! Try Charon some of those with people. They’ll probably beat you with styx!
[Shakes fist]
Damn you, NoClueBoy
[/Shakes fist]
Just fyi for the non astronomical reading this: Charon, the ferryman over the River Styx, is the name of Pluto’s moon.
Oh momma
I’m in fear for my life
