Best MSM headline I’ve seen since back in the 80’s when some guys on a Greenpeace anti-whaling boat were detained in the Soviet Union and the Mayor of Nome, Alaska got sent over to bring them back.

Headline in the Pittsburgh P-G:

“Release of Seamen Expected”

Wrecked ‘em?

Darn neart kilt him!

I had a schoolteacher who pronounced it “urine us”. Not much better, I’d try yuh-RAN-us.

Here's an artist's depiction of Uranus: \ Sometimes it sparkles, as if dusted with glitter!

[MrB]

Hey, no dirty pictures!

[FunkyZero]

some of us refuse to grow up completely. there’s that little bit of toilet humor we have to hang on to or we just don’t feel right about life

I believe they discovered a black hole at the center of it.

You don't have to convince me as you can see it everywhere today.

The only close-to-neutral pronunciation of the name of the seventh planet seems to be, “Your Rawness”.

That doesn’t help either, does it?

The PC crowd and the Liberals are going to be miffed at you guys for dissing their Home Planet!

[DPMD]

No Myanus isn’t.

[right way right]

Uranus looks like Barny Franks mouth.

[-YYZ-]

GMTA, LOL. That one still makes me laugh every time.

[PTBAA]

That picture would give credence to the theory that your body will take on physical characteristics that mirror your personality.

If you like Uranus, you get to keep Uranus. Period.

[kaehurowing]

I understand there is support in Congress for a bill renaming Uranus and calling it “Obama.”

[pleasenotcalifornia]

You could see that from Uranus with binoculars.

As everyone who watched StarTrek knows, klingons appear around uranus and can be difficult to remove.

-——Why did they have to name this planet “your anus?”——

because Saturn was already taken
