Most of you may already know this. If you spend a lot of time on Yahoo! or pay attention to the news on it, you know what the new word of the year is. Here is the information I got from this article:
The word is Plutoed According the article,
This is my new favorite word. It's amazing the way we can actually see language evolve. For the Mau Mau players you know how the word "two" can be a verb. For those of us in college, users of myspace, and facebook users, we know how we can now "friend" someone. That word is also a verb.
There are countless other words that have changed recently. I am not in one of my most inspired modes right now, so I won't list anymore, but feel free to comment with any other words you can think of.
As far as being able to pluto now, I am thrilled that the former planet is getting some of the attention and respect it deserves. If it can't be a proper planet, at least it can change the English language. Rock on Pluto!!

That ticks me off that Pluto is no longer a planet!! Then what's going to happen to My Very Earnest Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas. It'll just end with "Nine". Nine what?? What will happen to Pizzas?
Wow, Shannon. I have never heard that before... :D
Well, if Pluto is not a planet then i am not a human. In fact, i am an alien. Don't belive me, fine, but if the whole world is going to turn upside down, starting with Pluto's de-planetezation, then i am going to go along with it!!!
Yay for pluto! Way to triumph over those negative idiots who have decided to redo countless decades of teaching. Long live Pluto!
