Has anyone seen my planet?
My very easy method just speeds up naming ???
Apparently we now have only eight planets in our solar system. Let the hunt for new memorable phrases commence! |
Dude, Where's My Planet?
|
It's about time, Pluto was a joke.
|
Gah, you beat me to it!
Poor Pluto. - ;( ;( ;( ;( ;( ;( ;( |
You're all idiots, Pluto was never a planet...

Cool.
What do I get in return for my services? it better be good |
Oh, and the German mnemonic device was one of the best ever, because it actually had some relation to the thing it was intended to help remember:
Mein Vater erklärt mir jeden Sonntag unsere neun Planeten. (In English: My father explains our nine planets to me every Sunday.) - :frown: :frown: :frown: :frown: :frown: :frown: :frown: |

Mind you, the English "My very easy method just speeds up naming planets" wasn't bad :D. |

I originally learnt "My very energetic maiden aunt just swam under North Pier". Which is really random, even if it does also place the asteroid belt.
|
The only astronomical mnemonic I can remember is:
Oh be a fine girl, kiss me. |
About time, I say. Ever since astronomers discovered that "dwarf planet" in the Kuiper Belt that's larger than Pluto, I've been looking rather askance at the former ninth planet.
It'll make for an interesting conversation starter with young people when we're old. "When I was a lad there were nine planets in the solar system..." ;) |
Whoa, I refreshed the page and your avatar is different now, RLacey.
Maybe its the weird psychadelic guitar of the Screaming Trees messing with my brain. |
Yeah. I had originally thought of the Disney character, but your earlier comment gave me an idea.
|
I'm an influence.
Excelsior. |
And here I am wondering why the heck Rob has changed his avatar to a sad looking Pluto.
My brain is r e a l l y s l o w today. <frowns with an angry teacher's look>And don't anyone dare pointing out it's slow every day.</frowns with an angry teacher's look> |
Can I correct the angry teacher's English instead? :P
|
Oh, this makes sense, and all, but...
...we now have 4+4+0 planets in the solar system. *state of shock* |
