At first I was thinking this might be an article from The Onion, but no. Probably didn't help that I read it in a voice similar to that of Beavis or Butthead...

"Uranus is truly a mystery. Will humans finally take up the task to explore it?"

    Well went to the doctor a couple weeks ago and he said
    "Uranus is fine"

    Maybe he knows something we don't

    Has anyone ever asked Neil Degrasse Tyson to discourse on this topic?
    It must be a key area of discussion among astropysicists and planetary scientists.

    Poor Uranus, the butt of many jokes.

    Like many on this site, Uranus is just a non-conformist.

    Just being a little rebellious and giving the Sun the equivellant of the finger is all. Couple of million years from now he’ll probably straighten out, and it will be a non-issue.
