Well I just googled it and Morty's a sack of shit.

Semi-bragging here but they taught my 3-year-old the planets in daycare. He was able to name all nine, including Pluto.

Well, ten, I guess, since he always repeats Saturn. But Saturn's always been a chill planet that doesn't give us any shit. I'm cool with having two of them.
