The real problem here is the nostalgia factor. A lot of people grew up having the planets ingrained into their brains with various mnemonics. Hard to say goodbye to “pizza”.
No, we have “thin blue line” and somehow a long running controversy about which lives matter and which lives still matter but we shouldn’t say it because it implies you think the others don’t matter because of the thin blue lines. Humans are fucking weird, no matter the language.
Beef-sticker-surveillance responsibility-shifting law
The law which transfers the responsibility of regulating grocery stickers on beef to presumably some other state agency?
Although to be fair, you have nothing on the Māori of New Zealand. They named a hill Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu. That’s even longer than the town of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch in Wales.
Edit: None of them, though, come close to Ancient Greek’s lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsanodrimhypotrimmatosilphiokarabomelitokatakechymenokichlepikossyphophattoperisteralektryonoptekephalliokigklopeleiolagoiosiraiobaphetraganopterygon, “a fictional dish originating from Aristophanes’ 391 B.C. comedy Assemblywomen.”

My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming

Naming what‽
Just chiming in to say nice interrobang, fellow interrobanger
Thanks‽
There was no scenario where your precious mnemonics got preserved. If Pluto was still a planet, then Ceres would be too and it would fuck them all up.

That’s not where Ceres goes, and you missed Eris and a few others.

Yes, but your language is even weirder than English.
At least English doesn’t have any words like rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz.

What are you even talking about? Are you in the right thread? This is about Pluto and Star Trek and also at this point the German language.
Yes, I was pointing out that making fun of one language is odd when all languages are bizarre. English especially so. I don’t this is unclear.
Oh I see, this is more about being very, very serious rather than having fun and joking around in a meme community.
Maybe you need to find somewhere else for that.

Compound words make words rather descriptive and precise though, and we German love being precise.

I don’t think mnemonic translates correctly into German ;p
