150+ planets in the solar system. Okay. But what if their cores are made of wine gum with cola flavor?

They should just rename it "Plutino Grande" and let it go at that!

Shouldn't Pluto been called a "Little People" object?
I thought "Dwarf" was a No No in PC speak?

^ you should call them vertically challenged, from core to crust.
