So the boy has moved up in daycare from the infant room to the older infant room.  For some reason (I'm calling stupidity) the older infant room has a smaller refrigerator which means the boy needs to have his own lunch box with ice packs.  So, of course, I'm not going to send the boy with any ole boring lunch box.  I mean, what's the point, right?

So I found him this lunch box on Amazon that has the 9 planets.  Yeah, that's right, NINE, planets. 

That is, it has the 8 "really real planets" and then pluto off in a corner crying.



Because Neil deGrasse Tyson obviously hates small planets AND children. 

Who's the bestest Daddy in the world?

I know it's supposed to be satire, but seriously, enough about fucking Pluto. It's a goddamn ice rock. You can barely see it from a 6 inch reflector, and only as a faint speck of light at that.

Us oldsters grew up with it being considered a "planet".

Yeah, My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nachos (Naan, whatever) just isn't the same, even if it still plays to gender stereotypes. If Nine Pizzas aren't involved, why are you even trying to interest the brains of elementary-school students? Pepperoni or GTFO.

A mnemonic for remembering the first letters of the nine planets was "My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas" when I was in grade school. The comment about pepperoni was an attempt at humor that obviously failed, so don't worry if it doesn't make sense to you.

Nope, I probably just haven't seen the thread you're thinking of yet. I'll look for it tomorrow, I need to sleep now.

Seriously, fuck pluto, nachos are the fucking bomb
- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

I want some decent nachos. The last nachos I had were crap.

I personally consider the "Pluto shift" to mean that we have MORE planets in our solar system, not less.

Seriously, "dwarf planet" still has "planet" in it. It's not like they're calling Pluto, Ceres, etc, "rocks". I totally blame the mnemonic for the stupidly which surrounds this (it's easier to drop Pluto than come up with an accurate mnemonic).
