hey guys when are we finally gonna name this planet? something COOL. because i got some good ones!

what if we call it "the extreme teen bi-ball"? for the two suns! or "spume"! i think spume is a pretty good one.

how do we vote on this? who's got ideas? if we get enough we could just use a different one every day. yknow keep it fresh!

[ anyway sorry, but merle is... here.

(i've come back from hiatus to say. 1. he icly forgot all about offering dance lessons probably within a week of doing it, and 2. if anyone wants/needs to discuss handwaving an old thread, my office hours are open.) ]

Oh hell no, Spume sounds gross.

And the other one's stupid too because it's too fucking long. Most planets have one or two syllable names. Like Mars. Or Saturn.

what if we all just call this planet "low tide"??

[unhappycamper]

Ugh. No. That's a dumb name for a planet.

... though I guess some of the planets in Earth's solar system are dumbly named too. What crazed scientist looked at Uranus and thought, "Gee, wouldn't it be great if I named this so that everyone who comes after me will forever wonder whether I was a six year old boy or a dirty pervert... possibly both?"

Pluto's not a planet anymore, maybe you could use that. It's not like Pluto's using it.

ohh shame that "uranus" is already used huh. i dont wanna do like a sequel planet those are no good.

we'll just have to figure it out! how'd pluto get booted? are we taking on a weird legacy here?

[unhappycamper]

Fuck no we are not naming it Uranus!

I think a bunch of scientists got together and said it was too small. Seems kinda like they're short-shaming Pluto to me.

[weedbgon]

so one for, one against. the votes are in.

aw what? if they decided its a planet before there should be a no takebacks rule! its like someone trying to tell me im not a person cause im not 4 feet high. weird decision.
if were were in your neck of the woods id help you campaign

[unhappycamper]

You're not allowed to vote for all the shitty names, you only get to vote for one! One!

Dude, there are plenty of tall idiots that shouldn't be considered people. They'll get taken off that list way before we would.

The whole bullshit thing with Pluto's not a big deal to me either way. It might be a big deal to Space Kid, but he ain't here, so his opinion doesn't really matter I guess.

[weedbgon]

if i can't vote for all my own shitty names what's the point in thinking of em?

we gotta bribe our way onto the committee. we'll pull the rug out from under ANYBODY who really deserves it. like angry gods!

is space kid his real name or just his xtreme teen cool name? there's a difference
