wtf is this crap!? First you take it off the planet list then you rename it? Just blow it up you plotoists!

 

[Obi-Wan]

what he said

 

[Colossal Spoons]

No respect

 

[imdaly]

As long as he doesn't start running around with Mickeyoid and Donaldoid, I'm fine with this.

 

[The Battousai]

If people are seriously concerned with either this change or the original change from planet to pygmy planet, they have some issues to work out - it's not that big of a deal.

 

[StrainedEyes]

Why does it have to get a new name just because it's not a "planet" anymore?

 

[Alex The Great]

*crocker* LEAVE PLUTO ALONE!!! *crocker*

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

Pluto deserves better

Pluto is the red-headed step child of the Milky Way.

Plutoids... sounds like something you'd get after a night with a hooker.

So that's what that growth was.

And the sun is the abusive ***** of a dead beat mom.

..The fact that we did get it was what made it not funny.

It doesn't have a new name, it has a new classification. It's now Pluto the plutoid instead of Pluto the planet (with Pluto the dwarf planet in between).

*Waits for hypester to create "Plutoid-Man" alias*

 

[imdaly]

So how does this mean there used to be a planet called Astero?

Metro?
