Tell Uranus to stop leaking stuff

[–] Bot@sub.community 6 points 6 days ago

Ewwwww, Ur anus leaks, lol

So, like a wet fart? Honestly, I think the scientific community should seriously consider changing the planet's name. Every single article about Uranus, turns into a juvenile joke.

It amazes me how many new things we're still learning about Uranus, even after decades of getting familiar with that body.

It also has a reddish-brown ring and smells of rotten eggs. My favorite fact, however, is that it rains diamonds on Uranus.

Something smells off about this headline.

[–] crumbguzzler5000@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago

No, thats Uranus

Can't wait for this to be in every late night show and cheap pun for the next month.
