They renamed it in 2620 to end that joke once and for all.

Now it's called Urectum. Here, let me locate it for you.

OK if we are going to do bum jokes, I was setting up a telescope outside my Wal Mart store in San Anton, it was a promotion that we were doing. One wag asked me "Have you seen Uranus?", to which I replied "No, but I have scratched it a few times".

My understanding is that the latest theory is that the surface of this planet is an ocean of compressed methane, with diamond icebergs.
