    But if we let them take Pluto from us, where does it end? Who is going to defend Mercury and Mars when they come for those next?

    This is how we end up without a planet at all!

      People are only mad about Pluto because it happened in their lifetime.

      Prior planets include The Sun, Ceres in 1801, Pallas in 1802, Juno in 1804, Vesta in 1807, Astraea in 1845, Hebe, Iris, and Flora in 1847, Metis in 1848, and Hygiea in 1849.

        And all those imaginary planet Xs we’ve had, can’t forget those.

        Are we gonna have to start looking for planet Ix now?

            “It was named Ix, meaning planet who is not able to satisfactorily explain what a Twitter is, nor why it should choose to collapse on Elon Musk”
