We are such a tiny planet and we are just loaded with idiots.

Have a fabulous day. ☺

We're a tiny planet but we can still kick Pluto's butt.

Jan: Poor Pluto gets no respect at all. It was always small, but demotion from planethood only served to exacerbate its self-esteem issues.

Go ahead and pick on a planetoid when it's down in the dumps.

Sue Hanes: I agree. I always knew Jupiter was one of the gas giants, but this graphic illustrates the size difference in a very effective way.

The same with Mars. I always knew it was smaller than Earth, but this pic hammered home the point.

Woodsterman (Odie): Yep. A lot of people don't know a lot of things ;)
