A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

There fixed pluto for you
I blame Percival Lowell for this. And his minion, Clyde Tombaugh.
Then they yanked Pluto from planetary existence, to cover their tracks!
Straw men have only ever existed on planets. There are no straw men on Pluto. Therefore, Pluto is not a planet.
Remade it in a different aspect ratio for my banner, feel free to steal
please make a c/spurriouscorrelations
Not sure why you're asking me instead of OOP...
You made the banner version, but it doesn't really matter who makes it, though.
Why not you?
Why not just randomly assign someone like it's jury duty?
True, wanting a community and creating it doesn't have to correlate or cause one another
And in 2006, Pluto was declared not a planet. Also in 2006, Facebook went public. Coincidence? I think not!
plutocracy confirmed
Can we please get an autistic info dump on pluto in this thread
Pluto is a dwarf planet located in the Kuiper Belt, a region of the solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune. It was discovered in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh and was originally classified as the ninth planet in our solar system. However, in 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) redefined the definition of a planet, and Pluto did not meet all of the criteria. As a result, Pluto was reclassified as a dwarf planet.
Pluto has a diameter of about 1,473 miles (2,370 kilometers), making it smaller than the United States. It has a highly eccentric orbit, which means that its distance from the sun varies greatly over the course of its 248-year-long orbit. At its closest approach to the sun, Pluto is about 2.7 billion miles (4.3 billion kilometers) away, while at its farthest point, it is about 4.6 billion miles (7.4 billion kilometers) away.
Pluto has five known moons: Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra. Charon is the largest of these moons, with a diameter of about 750 miles (1,200 kilometers). It is so large that Pluto and Charon are often referred to as a binary system, with Pluto and Charon orbiting a common center of mass.
Pluto's surface is composed of a mixture of water ice, methane ice, and nitrogen ice. It has a very thin atmosphere, which is composed mainly of nitrogen, with some methane and carbon monoxide. The atmosphere collapses when Pluto is far from the sun and reforms when it is closer.
Pluto's temperature varies greatly depending on its distance from the sun. When it is at its closest approach to the sun, the temperature on Pluto can reach as high as -387 degrees Fahrenheit (-233 degrees Celsius). When it is at its farthest point from the sun, the temperature can drop as low as -396 degrees Fahrenheit (-238 degrees Celsius).
Despite being a dwarf planet, Pluto is still a fascinating and mysterious object in our solar system. Scientists are still learning new things about Pluto, and there is much more to be discovered about this icy world and its moons.
God bless copy-pasta and Moronic-o-Pedia.
are you single
No. For I am in love with Pluto.
sobbing on a telescope
Proserpina may want to have words with you.
I'll cut a bitch

Planet = 76 years - Dwarf = 19 years
Planet wins. Dwarf can't even drink yet.
Dwarf can't even drink yet.
In the US. Most countries have 18 as the limit; in most of Europe that's only a limit on buying alcohol, not drinking it.
Its still effectively a buying limit here in the US as well. I had my first drink at 4 because I was convinced whiskey was apple juice and stole a swing, the end result was a drunk 4 year old.
I think he means their cops won't arrest you for drinking younger.
Yes, I know about our backward ass country. The United States of America: where you may fight and die in a war at 18 but can't have a drink.

So, you're saying for thousands of years nobody knows about Pluto. Then a handful of people suddenly start obsessively monitoring the night sky and enumerating every object they can see in a big journal. More and more of them start building bigger and bigger telescopes, blowing enormous sums of money on this seemingly pointless hobby. They're spending the most productive years of their lives sleeping through day so they can wake up in the middle of the night and count celestial objects. And then you're telling me Pluto caused Autism?
I think you've placed the cart before the horse.
So you’re saying autism caused Pluto? 😳
It's the only conclusion that makes sense.
Lol, I see what you did there.
I don't know, I read a post on the internet that says the opposite

Checkmate atheist
Or did those with autism cause Pluto? Correlation does not prove causation. They weren't able to fully connect the dots in the case of vaccines. They only saw a mere common "trend" among the research and ran with it.
Correct, just like nic cage movies cause kids to drown
What caused the existence of trans people?
Loneliness and a high lack of self-understanding.
that men are from mars women have a penis book from the 90s.
unix
Genetics, mostly. But socialization, culture, etc possibly. There have been trans people as long as there have been people. Some cultures were more accepting than others. I'd encourage you to check out Native American Two Spirit people for an ancient way cultures of the area perceived some kinds of trans people, often in a quite positive way.
A lot of Autistic people are trans
Why do party balloons sometimes drift north?
-
The string, they let go of it.
-
The wind was blowing that way.
I think it's a good parallel.
As an autist, I agree. I wouldn't be like this if it wasn't for that damn ~~planet~~ space rock!
